a crowd gathers. ohhh they fuckin' love a good beheading. watch as st.alban's head

rolls down the hill. the crowd stood still

'cause what they just saw

it petrified them to the core

ahhh to the core. ahhhhhh. as the executioner raised his as his axe

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 wont. now get a grip on your roots boy. don't let go. but we will not let go. ahhhhhh. as the executioner raised his as his axe

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.albans 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.
