Lyrics

Oh Lily, oh Lily, a true-red heart,
Liverpool’s where her roots all start.
When she heads out on a Friday night,
The lads line up in the neon light.

From Manchester, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs,
They’re down on their knees, saying “choose me first.”
But Lily flicks her hair, says “Not a chance,”
And makes her Liverpool stance:

If it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian,
A Liverpudlian just like me.
He can be skinny, flat as a plank,
But if it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian.

Lily gets advice every time she goes out,
“Be careful now,” they warn and shout.
She’s giving her dad more grey each year,
And her mum predicts disaster, fear on fear.

“Manchester, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs—
Turn your back and count to three,
You’ll end up alone with a kid on your knee!”
But Lily just laughs with glee:

No, if it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian,
A Liverpudlian just like me.
He can be skinny, flat as a plank,
But if it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian.

Now Lily’s married for good, that’s that,
Four daughters strong—imagine that.
They’re tucked away like precious gold,
While four young suitors are brave and bold.

From Manchester, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs,
They’re waiting their turn outside the door,
But Lily scares them off one by one,
With a bang-bang shout and a thunderous roar:

BANG! If it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian,
A Liverpudlian just like me.
He can be skinny, flat as a plank,
But if it’s gonna be love, it’s gotta be a Liverpudlian
