It was inevitable, I suppose.
I mean, it had been building up for weeks.
No one could talk about anything else, just going over it, and over it, and over it.
Honest, I was sick to death of it all.
But you know how people are about things like that.
It's all, what did he say?
Did he?
The bastard, I'm not standing for that.
And just who do they think they are?
They can't push us around, can they lads?
In the end, I suppose there wasn't any choice.
I blame them though.
In my opinion, it was all needle, needle, nag, nag.
They wouldn't let it drop.
Of course, they're not stupid.
Stands to reason.
Never underestimate your enemy's intelligence, as they say.
Oh, they knew what was good, no doubt about it.
Dead cunning, you know.
Got what they wanted in the end, too.
We just couldn't resist. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ After, when it was all over and we'd picked ourselves up.
Injuries all round, but nothing you could really show.
We made the best of it, like you do, you know.
Wasn't as bad as all that, eh?
They'll know who's boss now, eh?
We showed them a thing or two.
[G] That sort of thing.
[Dm] _ I don't know.
[Em] Things weren't the same afterwards.
I don't [Dm] know.
[C#m] It's not that we'd done [Gm] anything.
We said we wouldn't.
[F] I just think we hadn't imagined [D] it'd be that [E] dirty.
[D] We thought it'd be a bit [F] of a joke.
But it wasn't like that after a while.
[Am] It was us there, jumping through the hoops.
We were the [Em] performing thingies, grabbing at the bait, [E] not them.
It was all, well, degrading, if you see what I mean.
Oh, everyone rushed around congratulating us.
You won!
You won!
It was great!
You were great!
People just didn't seem to understand how we felt.
So we just let on.
Everything was fine.
I don't know.
All I can say is I don't think we betrayed anyone, did we?
No, I don't think we let anyone down.
Except maybe_
us.
