Lyrics
- Barney:
- Springfield doesn't have an anthem.
- Men:
- We thought we had one,
- But we don't.
- Everyone:
- We paid our short guy to write it,
- But we never saw him again.
- The tune we stole from the French.
- There's a few things they do well.
- Like making love, wine, and cheese
- Like Roquefort, Camembert and Bries.
- Springfield,
- We're going to die,
- Springfield,
- I'm scared, goodbye.
