The Skid Marques – Drivers’ Parade
All hail the pilots
Paraded before us
And the heroes before them
Who died racing for us.
Long may they win
I hope they never fade
All hail the heroes
Of the Drivers’ Parade
Of the drivers’ parade
Wooaooh
The Drivers’ Parade
Wooaooh
The Drivers’ Parade
Look there is Fangio!
Ayrton Senna too
Patrick Depallier
And Mark Donohue
Guiseppe Campari
Count Louis Zborowski
Bernd Rosemeyer
Lorenzo Bandini.
Some died whilst racing
Some died at home
Some passed away
When the race was won.
Some fade from glory
They crash and they burn
Surviving ordeals
Until it’s their turn.
Long may they win
I hope they never fade
All hail the heroes
Of the Drivers’ Parade

Wooaooh
The Drivers' Parade
Wooaooh

Jules Bianchi
María de Villota
Roland and Ayrton
They came to their end
Ratzenburger and Senna
Both in one awful weekend
Though they didn’t die racing
Farina, Hunt, Hill
They lived life at speed
And died a free will.
