They Say
They say
now that I've got cannon fodder when I walk on fields of love,
and I have a heart
enclosed in a body that's a minefield
They say
that I am sad when the sun comes out
that something makes me lose control
Well, whoever wants to find out
should first take the prescription
What do you know of my life
to turn upside down
the soul of my own mother,
the soul of my own blood?
Stop talking now
you need to wash out that tongue & mouth with soap
and learn when to shut up
But now I live inside that awful display case
and I have to endure the attacks without anesthesia
and I will endure whatever they throw at me
Well, that's how I came to be born
In an old house where the water
at night would flood our feet
But the morning light would come across our heads
And as a child I was happy
playing in that old house
They say
that here even the gravedigger speaks
and he whistles into the ear of the dead
after the farewell
So there is no way for them to rest
They say
that I have been a scoundrel in the past
and tomorrow I'll be one too with whomever pushes & hits me
and betrays me at the moment
But now I live inside that terrible display case
and I have to endure the attacks without anesthesia
and I will endure whatever they throw at me
Well, that's how I came to be born
But now I live inside that terrible display case
and I have to endure the attacks without anesthesia
and I will endure whatever they throw at me
Well, that's how I came to be born
In an old house where the water
at night would flood our feet
But the morning light would come across our heads
And as a child I was happy
playing in that old house
