Fire and Steel

[Verse 1]

Feeding the furnace and melting the iron

Fisting and grinding and smelting the steel

Steaming and sweating the fruits of their labour

The best in the world is called Sheffield steel

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Flames flying into the night

Searing white heat, blinding light

[Chorus]

Fire and steel made this mighty city

Fire and steel, forged by working hands

Fire and steel, red hot and heavy

Fire and steel, the finest in the land

[Verse 2]

White hot and molten and flowing like lava

Bending and shaping and pounding the iron

Lifting and shifting the weight of the city

Shipping and moving their steel 'cross the world

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Man and machine never stop

Forging their steel on the clock

[Chorus]

Fire and steel made this mighty city

Fire and steel, forged with working hands

Fire and steel, red hot and heavy

Fire and steel, the finest in the land

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

The sound of the city, the crushing of metal

Blend in the iron to make into steel

Using the science that fucks with the knowledge

A great northern city leading the world

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Flames flying into the night

Searing white heat, blinding light

[Chorus]

Fire and steel made this mighty city

Fire and steel, forged with Yorkshire hands

Fire and steel, red hot and heavy

Fire and steel, the greatest in the land
