England fan has released a song for the Euros and the chorus is very controversial

"Come on England, come on the team."

A very passionate fan has created his very own Euro 2024 anthem for England.

As the Three Lions prepare for their first match this Sunday (16 June) one supporter has created an infectious anthem with the hopes of rallying the nation while also raising funds for charity.

LADbible Group journalist Jake Massey - of 'Greggs marathon' fame - decided to harness his love for the Gareth Southgate's team and create a rallying cry for fans up and down the country.

Although he's not a musician, Jake was armed with his guitar and a dream. The result was 'Come On' a passionate football track sung by a fan, for the fans.

Check out the song and it's accompanying video below:

If good natured support for your national team isn't enough to get you on your feet, you'll be glad to know the track is also for a good cause - with all proceeds from streams and downloads going to Teenage Cancer Trust.

The video sees Jake accompanied by his friends and co-workers, all decked out head-to-toe in England gear and practicing their best shots.

"Come on England, come on the team / Come on you, and come on me," he sings.

The message is clear and simple: The players can’t win on their own, England is everyone - the team, you, and me.

Not content with just singing, Jake also breaks out into a rap at one point while name dropping several of England's biggest talent.

"Up top, Kane is baggin', Foden's a wizard like Bilbo Baggins. Wait Bilbo's a hobbit like Frodo, who gives a flip we've got Phil Foden. In the net, Pickford's repelling 'em, and front middle back we've got Jude Bellingham," he sings while stomping down an alleyway in England specs.

There's also a nod to ousted stars Harry Maguire and Jack Grealish - because the pair being dropped surprised us as much as it did you.

After perfecting his lyrics, Jake realised he'd need some help in turning his dream into a reality and enlisted the help of Manchester-based band Spangled and producer Gareth Nuttall (Lottery Winners, The K's) before hitting the recording studio.

“To be honest, I thought the idea of an ordinary England fan releasing a Euros song was excellent, but I assumed the actual song itself would end up being crap,” Jake said.

“However, if you listen to the song, I’m sure you’ll agree that it is in fact fantastic.”

He continued: “My dream is that ‘Come On’ gets into the charts above some Ed Sheeran song that’s been out about six years. But if a few fans sing it and we raise a bit of cash for Teenage Cancer Trust, then I suppose that’ll do.”

You can now stream and download ‘Come On’ here.
