There'll always be an England
While there's a country lane,
Wherever there's a cottage small
Beside a field of grain.
There'll always be an England
While there's a busy street,
Wherever there's a turning wheel,
A million marching feet
There'll always be an England,
And England shall be free
If England means as much to you
As England means to me |

Well, the French would have you believe that monsieur Daguerre invented photography, and the Americans look to messrs Kodak and Eastman, but in fact it was invented by Sir Tristram Digital of Hutton Cranswick in 1642.
And that's why it's called digital photography to this day.

Angelic Upstarts - England
The red in the flag is the blood that was spilled
The way that your forefathers tell
And never a country been so great
The stories Britannia could tell
I never want to live my life
Away from the golden shores
There's never a country in the world
With a scent of the English rose
England ,o England, o country so great
The land of so fair and so true
There will never be any colours like
The red and the white and the blue
When ever you go to the far off shores
There's something that goes with you
The pride and the joy and the love that comes
From your mother of red white and blue
You could never be born under the flag that's like
The one of Union Jack
St. Georges spirit has never died
It's always coming back
England, o England, o country so great
The land of so fair and so true
There will never be any colours like
The red and the white and the blue....

The English, the English, the English are best
I wouldn't give tuppence for all of the rest.
The rottenest bits of these islands of ours
We've left in the hands of three unfriendly powers
Examine the Irishman, Welshman or Scot
You'll find he's a stinker, as likely as not.
Och aye, awa' wi' yon Edinburgh Festival
The Scotsman is mean, as we're all well aware
And bony and blotchy and covered with hair
He eats salty porridge, he works all the day
And he hasn't got bishops to show him the way!
The English, the English, the English are best
I wouldn't give tuppence for all of the rest.
Ah hit me old mother over the head with a shillelagh
The Irishman now out contempt is beneath
He sleeps in his boots and he lies through his teeth
He blows up policemen, or so I have heard
And blames it on Cromwell and William the Third!
The English are noble, the English are nice,
And worth any other at double the price
Ah, iechyd da
The Welshman's dishonest and cheats when he can
And little and dark, more like monkey than man
He works underground with a lamp in his hat
And he sings far too loud, far too often, and flat!
And crossing the Channel, one cannot say much
Of French and the Spanish, the Danish or Dutch
The Germans are German, the Russians are red,
And the Greeks and Italians eat garlic in bed!
The English are moral, the English are good
And clever and modest and misunderstood.
And all the world over, each nation's the same
They've simply no notion of playing the game
They argue with umpires, they cheer when they've won
And they practice beforehand which ruins the fun!
The English, the English, the English are best
So up with the English and down with the rest.
It's not that they're wicked or natuarally bad
It's knowing they're foreign that makes them so mad!
For the English are all that a nation should be,
And the flower of the English are Donald (Michael)
Donald (Michael) and Me!
