There was once an accordion player who didn't go to war. |
|
His mother said I know all you wanna do is play but can't you see what's going on? |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
And so he stayed and played at home until they burned it down. |
|
And when there was no bench to sit on he would just sit on the ground. |
|
And when he held his wounded friend in his arms and death was all around. |
|
He said, |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
It's not about you anymore, |
|
It's not about you anymore. |
|
Oh Mother, I could die a hero and bring glory to our home. |
|
And what would you do in a house full of glory if you had to live there alone, |
|
Live there alone, |
|
Live there alone, |
|
Live there alone, |
|
Live there alone |
|
So I'd rather play this song. |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing, |
|
I want to die playing. |
