Chumbawamba - Studmarks on the Summits lyrics

Business bought the athletes out

With gold medals and role models

Drugs and media and national pride

Why join in when you can watch it on TV?

So out of the stadiums!

Into the hills!

Out of the armchairs!

Onto the fells!

Staggering through mud and peat

Gasping breaths and sucked-in cheeks

Bogs like lead to clutch your feet

Through the rivers, over peaks

So out of the stadiums!

Into the hills!

Out of the armchairs!

Onto the fells!

Studmarks next to summit heather

Everything suddenly comes together

No audience viewing-figures

Just you against yourself

So out of the stadiums!

Into the hills!

Out of the armchairs!

Onto the fells!
