All Eyes on the Saint |
| 22nd of June, 209 AD |
| A crowd gathers |
| Oh, they fuckin' love a good beheading |
| Watch as St. Albans head rolls down the hill |
| The crowd stood still |
| Because what they just saw |
| It petrified them to the core |
| Ahh, to the core |
| Ahh |
| As the executioner raised his axe |
| I swear the saint smiled, I swear the saint smiled |
| As the executioner raised his axe |
| I swear the saint smiled, I swear the saint smiled |
| Welcome, Verulamium |
| Cathedral city, all eyes on the saint |
| Welcome, Verulamium |
| Cathedral city, all eyes on the saint |
| Our city with its beautiful history |
| Is being diluted |
| But we will not let go! |
| No we won’t |
| Now get a grip on your roots, boy |
| Don’t let go |
| But we will not let go! |
| As the executioner raised his axe |
| I swear the saint smiled, I swear the saint smiled |
| As the executioner raised his axe |
| I swear the saint smiled, I swear the saint smiled |
| Welcome, Verulamium |
| Cathedral city, all eyes on the saint |
| Welcome, Verulamium |
| Cathedral city, all eyes on the saint |
| And it’s cold outside |
| And it’s cold outside |
| And it’s cold outside |
| And it’s cold outside |
| As the executioner swung his wedge |
| His eyes popped right out his fuckin' head |
| Then when he should see the ancient moment |
| The making of the first British martyr |
| British martyr |
| Here lies truth, where I stand |
| Here lies truth, where I stand |
| Here lies truth, where I stand |
| Here lies truth, where I stand |
| So where St. Alban’s head |
| Laid to rest, after the kill |
| Fresh water sprung up from the ground |
| At the bottom of what’s now |
| Holywell Hill |
| Holywell Hill |
