Standard (EADGBE)

Colourful compartments

Desert island views

Elusive in England

Forget the fabrications

Give us all a clue

Have faith in horizon

Intercity interlude

Jack and Jill rub thighs and think it's rude

Keeping close along the line

Lovers losing sense of time

In England, in England, in England, in England

In England, in England, in England, in England

In England, in England, in England, in England

Oooooh that's nice, Oooooh Paradise

Many manifestos

Nailed up on the wall

Out of the blue ... only for you

Printed regulations

Quick to disapprove

Restrictions restrictions

Skin and bones can't find a way

To keep the British blues at bay

Underneath the surface laughter

Voices quiver in the dark

In England, in England, in England, in England

(Oooooh that's nice, Oooooh Paradise)
