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

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
