England's Glory

Demon


Churchill had a sign for it 
Nelson lost an eye for it 
Shakespeare wrote the words 
We all salute you 

The Beatles rocked the world with hits 
Errol Flynn starred in it 
Rolls Royce made the others sick 
We're still making history 

Oh we ruled the waves 
Oh we ruled the waves 

Drake he sank the Spanish ships 
Her majesty reigns over it 
Remember world cup sixty six 
And dear Bobby Charlton 
The Rockers and the Mods 
Blackpool and its Tower 
Morecamb and the wise 
Sir Lawrence Olivier 

Oh we ruled the waves 
Oh we ruled the waves 

All this is England's Glory 
Lie back and think of all the things we've done 
All this is England's Glory 
No-one can take away our finest hour 

Robin and his merry men 
The hall of fame at No. 10 
Guy Fawkes lit the Parliament 
And went for the big one 
Henry and his wives 
Rupert is bear 
Richard of the round 
And Billy Smarts Circus 

All this is England's Glory 
Lie back and think of all the things we've done 
All this is England's Glory 
No-one can take away our finest hour 

All the Hooray Henrys go to Oxford and Cambridge 
While the working class build the motorways 
The Royals choose their brides while they're out 
Playing Polo but no-one gives a damn cause we like it that way 

Maggie's kept the boys in place 
Prince Charles grows a Monarch's face 
Concorde roars and sets the pace, the reading of the Times 
Tales of Sherlock Holmes, it's great to be British 

Oh we ruled the waves 
Oh we ruled the waves 

All this is England's Glory 
Lie back and think of all the things we've done 
All this is England's Glory 
No-one can take away our finest hour
