"Wembley Song" lyrics - THE KILLERS

In the borough of Brent
The legend is real
Stands a two headed monster
Made of 33,000 tons of steel
And they called it Wembley

Whether it's a hot blooded win, or heartbreaking loss
Those three lions proudly play under the weight of St. George's cross
Out in Wembley

Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh

Pink Floyd, The Animals and Genesis and The Who without the Moon
ELO, INXS, Michael you left us all to soon
But you climbed those stairs to Wembley

The Boss, The Stones, the Man in Black, the bitch is back
And Fleetwood Mac, Take That, Bon Jovi
Green Day I said some shit
But that was the old me

U2, Oasis, The Foos, The Eagles, Madonna and Muse
Matallica, Viva La Vida, AC/DC, G n' R
George Michael stay away from cars
'66 the winning team
Freddie Mercury and Queen
I can still hear Freddie sing

Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh

After tonight you're gonna put another name on that list

Mr. Brightside had you scratching your head
When you heard we were from Vegas
But you were positive it was Sheffield or Camden
But that didn't matter

The seed was planted
You took us in like your own
Now we're bound by tradition
My how we've grown
From Dave's apartment to Wembley

Sing it:
I got soul but I'm not a soldier
(I got soul but I'm not a soldier)
Da da da da da
(Da da da da da)

And the decades disappear like a sinking ship
But we persevere God gives us hope
But we still fear what we don't know
The devil's water and the good old days

Ain't we all just runaways?

Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh

Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
(Day-Oh)
Day-Oh
