It was the summer of 793 When we sailed across the Great North Sea Comets crossed the skies that night Must have known something wasn't right
We arrived upon your English shore And you offered friendship But we wanted more Yeah, so much more!
We're tearing up this place tonight Literally! We're gonna set this sleepy town alight Literally! We'll kill and steal and burn and drink 'Cause us vikings don't care what you think Woah oh oh!
Let me in, won't you please We're here to raid your monasteries We're primed and ready to attack And we love how monks just don't fight back
You'll die or become a slave to me Though our slaves often end up in the sea If the boat's heavy! Yeah, yeah!
You're gonna lose your head, my friend Literally! We're gonna getcha in the end Literally! And I'll drink a toast from your skull 'Cause we're vikings and that's how we roll!
(Play that axe, Ragnor!)
We're gonna paint the whole town red Literally! With the blood of the dead Literally! We'll take everything that you own And get back on our ship, and go back home Woah, oh oh!
We're going home Woah, oh oh! We're going home Woah, oh oh! We are going home Woah, oh oh! We are going home Woah, oh oh!
