The Greatest Story Ever Told

On the coldest winter nights

When we froze by neon lights

It was then we said

We'll go on forever

And we didn't believe in lies

You could see it in our eyes

The scene was set

For things that should get betterFrom the days when it was tight

When we worked all days and nights

A glimmer of hope

Shone like a shooting star

From the hassle with The Pigs

To us never getting gigs

One man stood up

Said we'll go farThey tried to say that we were wrong

They tried to stop us moving onFrom the days of boots and fists

When we hardly ever missed

It was fun

But time grows old for ever

We knew that we were great

Though it was never on a plate

The only ones to swap bleached

Jeans for leatherThey tried to stop us moving on

They tried to stop our battle songFrom the shadow of brick lane

And the teeming of the rain

We vowed that we would split up never

So it's us against the world

Our pride will be upheld

And they know no one does it betterThey tried to stop us moving on

They tried to stop our battle songAnd they feared us for what we were

And the trouble they did stir

They tried to end us once and forever

No matter how they tried

Or how many tears we cried

We always stood and faced it all togetherAnd we'll just carry on

Keep the whole world waiting on

'cause this is the greatest story ever told
