always let you down... always fooled around always stealing your own way life just seems too short life lived in the dirt kicked in the teeth is what you meant to say
fighting battles, never fired a shot
when you step into the fire you're gonna get burned hide all the money you saved money won't pay for the trouble you caused troubles coming back for more
living on the edge a blind man kneels on broken class building the bars of his own case running circles till you drop hating life until it stops kicked in the teeth is what you meant to say...
with sense of irony - everyone you see is chasing their illusion take a dive or sink or swim but in the end you're in the same pollution in your world escape is swift the nonsense list is all you need to know in the land of dreams you make the right connections then you'll be the hero... ecstasy... the cult of me provides our institutions you can live forever besides a grave that stands where people used to function you can join the saviours of our culture vultures circling overhead my sky like the sin of gluttony won't set you free (but betty ford can help you try)
you can get all the things you never needed you can sell people crap and make them eat it
where is our john wayne where is our sacred cowboys now? where are the indians on the hill there's no indians left to kill
people die with oxygen and all their money can afford a breath people starving everywhere and staring in the face of death prostitutes and politicans laying in their beds together you can be the saviour of the poor making up the policies to open the back door...
