TSOM World Cup lyric thread

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I was listening to FALAA the other day and was struck by how apposite many of the lyrics are in the context of the current World Cup.
Having enjoyed the recent kitchen lyrics thread, I thought I'd start a similar one.

A couple of mediocre examples to start you off :

England : it's passing strange...passing slowly
Columbia : possession ... Taking over
Etc etc

Over to you ...

after the final Lukaku will say: some day everything you need is gonna fall out of the sky ;D

Was it Alice or our daughter Ellice???

Here's the story
No time to lose (like the present)
Now I've lost my friends
Now I've lost friends
It's not my party,
Never will be
Feeling out-of-place,
I'm not happy
A touch of the storm cloud...
Roughage in a comradeship and conversations
Conversations, everything's so run-of-the-mill
We stand still...

And time slips back,
And time slips back...
Back to the garden,
Time slips back
Back in the dark rooms
Time slips back
Back in the dark room
Back to the dark age
Put me on the rack
We stand still
Time slips back
Recount movements
Recount movements
Watch us grow
Watch us fall from grace
Watch us fall flat on our face
But you always fall on your feet
Tell me how you always
Fall on your feet
Tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how
Oh tell me how

Sorry for the off-topic post, but I've always heard this as
"what became of comradeship and conversations?"
I tried to tell her
About Marx and Eldritch, God and angels
I don't really know what for.

Didn't even notice that - just copied/pasted.

There's every chance the squad is incorrect too..
