The Lyrics
I've written two versions: this one "en Franglais" - if you found this too easy to understand, please nip over to the other one and have a read.
Cent ans d'entente for our patries
Perhaps it should be célébré
Entre nous, le new Eurotunnel
To hypermarchés à Calais
To hypermarchés à Calais
Achetez vos cigarettes
And bouteilles of Belgian biere
They're beaucoup cheaper là-bas
Fill up your voitures
Vos MPVs
'cause it's cheap over there
Remplissez your boots
Buvons! Drink on!
Le vin rouge français
Nous aimons les Français
Amour entre nos deux patries,
I mean that Gérard Depardieu
Et la belle, Laetitia Casta
Especially Thierry Henry
Et 'specially Thierry Henry
Coupe du monde, votre victoire
Trente-six ans after nous
Quel dommage, but la prochaine fois
Nous allons winner le cup
So sing citoyens!
Formez quelques choirs
Chantons! Sing on!
Des chansons d'amitié
L'entente cordiale - Hooray!
