| 0:34.7 | Come on. |
| 0:36.9 | We're on for the clean sweep in a World Cup here. |
| 0:55.2 | What can it mean? What can it possibly mean? It can mean no more pain, no more heartache, good times, a hoy. That's what it means. But tears gone cold and wondering why got out of bed at all. No more of that. No, glad all over. Glad all over. It's Sweet Caroline all the way home. |
| 0:56.8 | I don't really like Sweet Caroline actually. |
| 0:58.2 | Glad all over. I think we need to acknowledge as a team, by which I mean the English nation for the |
| 1:03.7 | purpose of this World Cup, that Holy Holy is a much better Neil Diamond song and it would |
| 1:08.1 | still fit pretty well for the old England business.
