歌詞
(Verse 1)
In the heart of Manchester, the story began,
Tony Wilson, the visionary man.
He saw the world in chaos, the spirit of Dada,
Guy Debord whispered to him, "Vive la révolution!"
(Chorus)
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson stood where the brave hearts dared.
Factory Records, he lit the spark,
Joy Division, music in the dark.
(Verse 2)
Sex Pistols stormed in with an angry roar,
Johnny Rotten screaming, "We need something more."
Tony took that fire, built a factory,
A space for misfits, a place to be free.
(Chorus)
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson knew where the edges blurred.
Factory Records, a sound to define,
Joy Division, their music intertwined.
(Bridge)
The tragic day when Ian Curtis left,
His voice still echoes in all that's left.
But from the ashes, a New Order rose,
Tony's vision, a journey that never slows.
(Verse 3)
The Happy Mondays danced in the light,
Madchester raves every Friday night.
Tony Wilson's spirit was fierce and proud,
Iconoclastic, he shouted loud.
(Chorus)
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson made his mark on the scene.
Factory Records, a city reborn,
Joy Division, to New Order, to Happy Mondays' dream.
(Verse 3)
The Happy Mondays danced in the light,
Madchester raves every Friday night.
Tony Wilson's spirit was fierce and proud,
Iconoclastic, he shouted loud.
(Chorus)
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson made his mark on the scene.
Factory Records, a city reborn,
Joy Division, to New Order, to Happy Mondays' dream.
(Outro)
Tony said it himself, "I am a wanker,"
But he changed the world, he was no banker.
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson, the legend, forever vivid.
From the birth of punk to the death of acid,
Tony Wilson, the legend, forever vivid.
(outro)
But he changed the world,
Tony Wilson made his mark on the scene.
Tony's vision, a journey that never slows.
Tony's vision, a journey that never slows.
