Lyrics
English Channel
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't you wonder why they didn't call it french
Like it's some kind of anglo invention
You say the waters too wide well it tends to look that way
When you're swimming against the tide
But I'm standing on a minute
Standing on top of the cliffs of dover
When you ganna bring it
When you ganna, hey come on over
Stay awhile, it's just me and this isle
It's not something you couldn't handle
Not like you're trying to swim the english channel
Well you drink your coffee, I'll take my tea
I'll say myself and you'll say we (oui)
You never really seem that far away
Till the simplest things get lost in translation
But I'm standing on a minute
Standing on top of the cliffs of dover
When you ganna bring it
When you ganna, hey come on over
Stay awhile, it's just me and this isle
It's not something you couldn't handle
Not like you're trying to swim the english channel
We will tip our hats to the red white and blue
It isn't the cause, it's the powers that distinguish you
Just when I think the battle is done
You come storming right back like some napoleonic resurrection
But I'm standing on a minute
Standing on top of the cliffs of dover
When you ganna bring it
When you ganna, hey come on over
Stay awhile, it's just me and this isle
It's not something you couldn't handle
Not like you're trying to swim the english channel
