England My England
England my England sets standards anew
Coveted ideals drooled over by hordes
an empire elated shall forever be true
Gilded by conquest stronger men knew
The Romans Saxons Vikings and Nords
England my England sets standards anew
Perched on red charabanc tourism grew
Drinking fine history of ladies and lords
an empire elated shall forever be true
England is England where all blood is blue
Timeless memory through poetic chords
England my England sets standards anew
Traditions so loyal old mingle with new
Pirated treasures kept still in their hoards
an empire elated shall forever be true
England my English country right through
of contrasting pageantry given by wards
England my England sets standards anew
an empire elated shall forever be true
