the barmy army - cantabile: the london quartet lyrics
the barmy army marches ’round the world
with banners saying, “hallo mum” unfurled
out there in the middle
our team is on the floor
nothing but a miracle
can help us scr-pe a draw
but we support our country, right or wrong
which means we need a special sort of song
it isn’t easy
when your team
makes a nightmare out of a dream
it isn’t easy
patiently
watching them sn-tch defeat
from the jaws of victory
any fool can cheer a winning side
but singing while you’re swallowing your pride
takes a certain character
a certain sort of guy
it’s just as well it’s england
will always make us cry
other nations couldn’t stand the strain
of watching their team losing once again
it isn’t easy
when your team
makes a nightmare out of a dream
it isn’t easy
patiently
watching them sn-tch defeat
from the jaws of victory
so paint st. george’s flag upon your face
and put your bet on england – for a place
and if it all goes pear-shaped
and if the fates combined
and we triumph by one run
against the might of lichtenstein
twice as loud you’ll hear our voices ring
teaching our opponents how to sing:
it isn’t easy
when your team
makes a nightmare out of a dream
it isn’t easy
patiently
watching them sn-tch defeat
from the jaws of victory
the barmy army
marches on
every hope of victory gone
the barmy army
stands the test
happy that when it comes to losing
when it comes to losing
when it comes to losing
we’re
the best!
