The First Attack - The Proclaimers

Since I started being impressed

By the things that move me

All the treasures that I missed

Came back to stand around me

And as I curse the wasted time

I lift my head to say

Thank you God you gave the strength

That helped me walk away

All the fear and anger

Still stays within my heart

And I can’t recall the last time

I imagined they’d depart

But this is what I’m going to do

When they force me to doubt

I’ll ask for what I know remains

To help me sing them out

Just sing it

As rays of sun shine through the clouds

And heat the soaking ground

So when we come to sing the shouts

We’ll burn the theatres down

Let every disbelieving sneer

That looked me in the back

Turn, come towards us

And feel the first attack
