- Union Jack Lyrics / with translationsMake a stand
Before you fall
Your country needs you
To play football
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
What happened to
You men of might
When things were wrong
You made them right
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
Now in the classroom
I was told
About the Empire
How you were bold
A pint of beer
Like passes by
Your spirits squased
Just like a fly
Across this green
And pleasant land
The powers slipping
Through your hand
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
Your country needs you
To play football
Make a stand
Before you fall
Your country needs you
To play football
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
God bless the Queen
Her people too
God bless this country
And see us through
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
Before you fall
Your country needs you
To play football
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
What happened to
You men of might
When things were wrong
You made them right
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
Now in the classroom
I was told
About the Empire
How you were bold
A pint of beer
Like passes by
Your spirits squased
Just like a fly
Across this green
And pleasant land
Through your hand
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
Your country needs you
To play football
Make a stand
Before you fall
Your country needs you
To play football
Wake up can`t
You hear the call
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
God bless the Queen
Her people too
God bless this country
And see us through
All for one and one for all
All for one and one for all
