[Greek Man 1 (Rickard)]
In 776BC
Olympics were begun
Greece was the only country
So naturally we won
Cheats built bronzes of God Zeus
Were we honest winners
The answer's no, we had more statues
Than you've had hot dinners

[Greek Man 2 (Baynton)]
Our games meant truce was called in war
A peace every 4 years
But wrestling was so violent
That bouts could end in tears
No girls allowed to watch or run
That might sound rude
But makes sense when I tell you
We competed n***

[All so far]
Flame!
It's gonna burn forever
Love for Olympic heroes
Flame!
We'd like one next, however
Sadly it's Emperor Nero
[Nero (Howick)]
Hey watch it you two, alright
I went from Rome to Greece
So I could play them at their games
In 67AD you know
I won Olympic fame
I told them to include a contest
Based on poetry
Not much good for sportsmen, no
But brilliant for me
Crashed my racing chariot
But still awarded gold
Hey, my Olympics, my rules
To argue would be bold
I won every medal
That was up for grabs
The crowd loved it, well they had to
Or I would have had them stabbed, OK

[All so far]
Flame!

[Nero]
Olympic champion that's me
My games were Emperor's own brand
[All so far]
Flame!

[Nero]
Think I was bad, in 393
Christian Rome had them banned

[All so far]
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over

[Nero]
Shame!

[Baron de Coubertin (Willbond)]
Wait, not so fast!
I'm Baron de Coubertin
A famous French historian
I read of the Olympic Games
Thought I should try restoring them
They'd be just like the old days
I said, but did propose
That unlike Greeks, Victorians
Should do them wearing clothes
In 1896 relaunched the games
In dear old Greece
Hoped it would make men more moral
As well as less obese
Rebuilt a stadium
So we could start to play
Games of the modern Olympics
Which we still have today
[All so far]
Flame!

[Baron de Coubertin]
I'm owed my personal glory
But no-one remembers my name

[All so far]
Flame!

[Baron de Coubertin]
So here to finish our story
A man who has gold plated fame

[Jesse Owens (Terera)]
I'm Jesse Owens
Fastest man in 1936
I took home 4 gold medals, yeah
But that's just the basics
What you should know
About the fact I was victorious
Is, it made Herr Hitler mad
Ha, it made him Führer-ious!
Hitler said Berlin should be
The games' Germanic base
So he could show the world
Aryans were the master race
I won in 4 events
He had to back pedal
His evil theory
Destroyed with every medal

[All]
Flame!
It's gonna burn forever
Olympics are never in doubt
Flame!
A fire of sporting endeavour

[Greek Man 2]
You realise it's actually gone out

[All]
Olympic, Olympic
Flame!
