Does anyone have the theme music to the original Worms?  I'm after both the musical version and the 'song' version, and neither are to be found anywhere.  They've been offered for download by Team17 (so it's quite legal), but their links are all broken, and the only copies available on the 'net are MIDIs and clipped MOD files.

Many pre-emptive thanks. :)

Lyrics:

This is a story of courage, honour and worms.

War had cast a shadow over their once peaceful land,
Gunfire filled the air, as worm turned against worm;
Where so many had fallen, others knew they must follow.
For one such worm, this day had already come.
When he was two, his father had left, never to return.
Three years he had waited for his chance to fight;
Three years of training, both day and night.
And though he was scared as he set off for battle,
He knew in his heart that it was something he must do.
Three inches tall, and armed to the teeth,
A fine soldier he made, and his name was Boggy B.

We are worms, we're the best, and we've come to win the war
We'll stand, we'll never run, stay until it's done
Though our friends may fall, and our world be blown apart
We'll strike with all our might
We'll fight for what is right till the end.

Scrambling up a hill and hiding behind a tree,
He looked at the battle that raged below.
It was there he saw his friend Spadge stood upon a bridge.
But another worm had also seen him, and aimed to have him dead
Boggy called to Spadge, but Spadge didn't hear,
He never knew what hit him, as he flew into the air.
It was all to much for Boggy, as he watched his best friend die.
Charging down the hill he had to have revenge,
What had Spadge done to come to such an end?
Reaching the bottom of the hill, Boggy suddenly heard a click:
He realized to his terror there was a mine under his tail!

We are worms, we're the best, and we've come to win the war
We'll stand, we'll never run, stay until it's done
Though our friends may fall, and our world be blown apart
We'll strike with all our might
We'll fight for what is right till the end.

Hitting several cliffs and landing in a tree,
Boggy pulled himself together, there was much he had to do.
Spotting the enemy down below, he knew this was his chance.
Boggy grabbed a stick of dynamite and dropped it on his head.
The enemy, he tried to run, but all he could really do was squirm,
As the fuse ran out there was a mighty BANG, and everywhere were bits of worm.
With their leader blown to kingdom come, the enemy they turned and ran!
Boggy bungeed from the tree and landed safely on the ground.
As he watched the enemy squirm away, the cry went up: "We've won the war!"

We are worms, we're the best, and we've come to win the war
We'll stand, we'll never run, stay until it's done
Though our friends may fall, and our world be blown apart
We'll strike with all our might
We'll fight for what is right till the end.

I DLed it, where would you like me to send it to?

Wh00t! :D  Where'd you find it?

(I've sent you a PM with my e-mail address.)  Thanks again. :)

Question: what the fuck? Worms had a theme tune? You want to have said theme tune?

*Boggles*

Indeed, 'tis a classic.  Did you never play it?  (The original one, with the armed pink pixels, not Worms 2 etc.)  Listen to the MOD file (http://www.garjen.co.uk/Misc/Misc/WormsTDC.MOD) (WinAmp'll play it) and you'll probably recognise it about half-way through.

I got it off the Kad network   :cool:  

What a tune! Brings back memories.

ooo. Send it to me too, smi  :wub:  

Exploding Bananas!  LOL  

PM me your e-addy then :sheep: <--not the exploding type

hmmmm was such a long time ago, still got it at home
