    This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
    This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
    This other Eden, demi-paradise,
    This fortress built by Nature for herself
    Against infection and the hand of war,
    This happy breed of men, this little world,
    This precious stone set in the silver sea,
    Which serves it in the office of a wall
    Or as a moat defensive to a house,
    Against the envy of less happier lands,
    This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.

    Have that.

    My mother was half English and I’m half English too
    I’m a great big bundle of culture tied up in the red white and blue
    I’m a fine example of your Essex man
    And I’m well familiar with the Hindustan
    Cos my neighbours are half English and I’m half English too

    My breakfast was half English and so am I you know
    I had a plate of Marmite soldiers washed down with a cappuccino
    And I have a veggie curry about once a week
    The next day I fry it up as bubble and squeak
    Cos my appetites half English and I’m half English too

    Dance with me to this very English melody
    From morris dancing to Morrissey,
    all that stuff came from across the sea</p>

    Britannia, she’s half English, she speaks Latin at home
    St George was born in the Lebanon, how he got here I don’t know
    And those three lions on your shirt,
    They never sprang from England’s dirt
    Them lions are half English and I’m half English too

    Le-li Umma le-li-ya, le-li Umma le-li-ya,
    Le-li Umma le-li-ya, bledi g’desh akh! le-li-ya

    Oh my country, what a beautiful country you are</p>
