Springfield Anthem is a song heard during the end credits of The Simpsons Movie. It was originally to be in the actual movie some point during the bomb going off. The music is the French national anthem, La Marseillaise, composed by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle. The parody lyrics were written by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Al Jean, Ian Maxtone-Graham, George Meyer, David Mirkin, Mike Reiss, Mike Scully, Matt Selman, John Swartzwelder and Jon Vitti.

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.
