The Lyrics
England was hoping to win the Euros 55 years after last winning a major soccer trophy...but, as usual, they lost the penalty shoot-out!
WE'RE NOT THE CHAMPIONS
So what, we lost.
Tell me, what's new?
We tried our hardest,
But didn't come through.
But in the end,
We had a draw.
But when it came to the penalty kicks
We just couldn't score.
But we mean to go on and on and on...
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
We've taken some knocks;
We're feeling quite low.
The players have done their best
And they know deep down there is
A long way to go.
There is no simple solution,
No easy way.
They should think it a challenge once more
In the hope
That they'll win it one day.
And they mean to go on and on and on...
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
So what, we lost.
Tell me, what's new?
We tried our hardest,
But didn't come through.
But in the end,
We had a draw.
But when it came to the penalty kicks
We just couldn't score.
But we mean to go on and on and on...
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
We've taken some knocks;
We're feeling quite low.
The players have done their best
And they know deep down there is
A long way to go.
There is no simple solution,
No easy way.
They should think it a challenge once more
In the hope
That they'll win it one day.
And they mean to go on and on and on...
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
We're not the champions this time;
The truth of it is, it's not a crime.
We're not the champions,
Though we're not champions,
We reached the final
And all of the players did us proud.
