The Tonbridge Robbers Lyrics

The biggest heist in history
They made thier master plan
A far reaching conspiracy
A money grabbing scam
The die is cast no turning back
As they drive to the scene
They think of a new life to come
A multi million dream
CHORUS:

They took their chance and went for gold
The biggest of them all
They do the job they were so bold
But it all ended in tears
They wanted fame and fortune
But prison's what they got
Will they go down in history
Or simply be forgot?

The cash depot at Tonbridge
Was the target for the raid
Mask and guns and crowbars
Were the tool of the trade
They load the cash into the van
Fifty million
But the depot staff raise the alarm
And their trouble's just begun
CHORUS:

They took their chance and went for gold
The biggest of them all
They do the job they were so bold
But it all ended in tears
They wanted fame and fortune
But prison's what they got
Will they go down in history
Or simply be forgot?
One by one they're rounded up
The net is closing in
Forced to go before the court
Atonement for their sin
They wanted champagne, caviar
A life of luxury
But prison food is what they'll get
And years of misery

CHORUS:

They took their chance and went for gold
The biggest of them all
They do the job they were so bold
But it all ended in tears
They wanted fame and fortune
But prison's what they got
Will they go down in history
Or simply be forgot?
