|
One man sits with his head hung low |
|
Nowhere to run, got no place to go |
|
There was a time when his town held homes |
|
Now it's trash and broken homes |
|
Every day, haulin' off the dead |
|
So many scenes flashin' through his head |
|
A little kid had to ask me "why" |
|
Should I laugh? Maybe I'll just cry |
|
So many folks tune in the living hell |
|
They wanna know where the bombs just fell |
|
Your TV screens show them crashing down |
|
Can you see the lights? Can you hear the sound? |
|
Guess the times have got the best of me |
|
What the hell is this supposed to prove |
|
They don't want to feel this misery |
|
Hear 'em screaming and they dare not move |
|
Guess the times have got the best of me |
|
Has there got to be a single bullet |
|
Put it right up to my head |
|
Half a chance you know that I would use it |
|
Guess the times have got the best of me |
|
What the hell is this supposed to prove |
|
They don't want to feel this misery |
|
Hear 'em screaming and they dare not move |
|
Guess the times have got the best of me |
|
Has there got to be a single bullet |
|
They don't want to fell this misery |
|
Remember yesterday, oh yesterday |
|
One man sits with his cigarettes |
|
Drinks his gin like his own regrets |
