The Song of Bath and Alkmaar 

Melody: Glory, glory halleluja

1. Bath:	We are the pride of England, for us opens every door 
We raise a lot of money for the homeless and the poor 
In cricket and in rugby we play better than the rest 
No doubt we are the best. 

Chorus:	Bath and Alkmaar, come together 
From the war until forever 
No, our friendship will die never 
So we sing for auld lang syne. 

2. Alkmaar: 	We are the pride of Holland, we are famous for our cheese
Have women members in our club and make them feel at ease 
We do so much for charity, it's hard for us to stop 
Yes, Alkmaar is the top.

Chorus:	Bath and Alkmaar, come together
From the war until forever 
No, our friendship will die never 
So we sing for auld lang syne. 

3.Bath		 We've cattle with diseasesand bad weather all year round 
We do not join the Euro and are sticking to the Pound 
But we make people laughing with Prince Charles or Mr. Bean 
And sing "God save the queen". 

Chorus:	Bath and Alkmaar, come together 
From the war until forever 
No, our friendship will die never 
So we sing for auld lang syne. 

4. Alkmaar:	In Holland we are liberal, use hash and LSD 
And every weekend evening we have porno on T .V. 
But we're the best in football and next year we win the cup 
And sing "Hup Holland hup". 

Chorus:	Bath andAlkmaar, come together 
From the war until forever 
No, our friendship will die never 
So we sing for auld lang syne. 

5. Bath and Alkmaar  But when we are together, all the difference is gone 
together:		We're laughing and we're singing and we have a lot of fun 
We have so much in common, yes our friendship is the best 
And Rotary does the rest. 

Chorus:	Bath and Alkmaar, come together 
From the war until forever 
No, our friendship will die never 
So we sing for auld lang syne.
