It's Hurry Up Harry by Sham 69, recently re-worked as Hurry Up England (sad but true) for the World Cup.

Sham 69 were an agit-prop band at the time of punk, and their loud yobby approach and influence belied the considerable intelligence and artistic temprament of their lead singer Jimmy Pursey, who is, I believe, an artist these days. Pursey disbanded the band after one too many gigs descended into a violent free-for-all involving NF things who routinely invaded their gigs and started trouble.
