| I never think it
|
| Would end up this way
|
| As I lay on the ground
|
| And silently prayed
|
| For God’s intervention
|
| My soul to save
|
| Who the hell is the saint of lost causes?
|
| Could see by their eyes
|
| My time it wasn’t long
|
| Reporters inquired why my vest wasn’t on
|
| My partner was crying
|
| For me to stay strong
|
| The sirens seemed to grow quieter
|
| Walk all the days
|
| Just to stagger at night
|
| A pension at twenty
|
| If all goes all right
|
| To the junkies, the yuppies, ice-t, and the whores
|
| I bid you a slán agus beannacht
|
| It seemed that the shooter
|
| Was barely fifteen
|
| Already, his life had been stripped of all dreams
|
| The crack, and the gats
|
| Make for one hectic scene
|
| Life’s never seemed any cheaper
|
| I’ll always remember
|
| The words that he said
|
| Over and over, they ring though my head
|
| «Go ahead, shoot me! |
| I’m already dead!»
|
| I see there’s more than one victim
|
| Walk all the days
|
| Just to stagger at night
|
| A pension at twenty
|
| If all goes a-right
|
| To the junkies, them yuppies, ice-t, and the whores
|
| I bid you a slán agus beannacht
|
| On the day of the funeral
|
| They all would be there
|
| The TV, the papers, that scumbag, the mayor
|
| They’ll tell all your family
|
| Their grief is shared
|
| Next week, you’re going to be forgotten
|
| To my friends, I say
|
| Goin' out for a drink
|
| «Don't give a fuck
|
| What the hypocrites think!»
|
| Belly up to the bar
|
| Your glasses all click
|
| A toast to your fallen brother
|
| Walk all the days
|
| Just to stagger at night
|
| A pension at twenty
|
| If all goes a-right
|
| To the junkies, the yuppies, ice-t, and the whores
|
| I bid you a slán agus beannacht
|
| Walk all the days
|
| Just to stagger at night
|
| A pension at twenty
|
| If all goes a-right
|
| To the junkies, them yuppies, ice-t, and the whores
|
| I bid you a slán agus beannacht
