The Company Of Cowards |
I’m in the company of cowards |
I’m in the company store |
Bullet holes through the window |
We can’t keep this company up anymore |
A bucket of beer, a bucket of fools |
A bucket of dark and broken rules |
There’s a lot more to this than I ever thought |
A bucket of trouble that’s what we’ve bought |
The man in the moon this afternoon |
Told secrets on you |
I believe to be true |
I’m in the company of cowards |
I’m in the company of me and you |
I saw you with Mr. Struggle Must Go On |
In a bar down in the Keys |
He was old and slow and couldn’t throw a punch |
And you looked so musical last night in the breeze |
You were showering him with your tender protection |
With no regard for me |
I was dining alone on the bread of sorrow |
While you were making fat the old man and the sea |
The man in the moon this afternoon |
Told secrets on you I believe to be true |
I’m in the company of cowards |
I’m in the company of me and you |
The Bible speaks of Heaven and Hell |
And many frightening things |
Politicians say «One more war |
And the bells of freedom will start to ring» |
Those stories you told by the waggin' of your chin |
Time’s not so precious til it comes to an end |
And silence is truth between me and you |
With our demur well hidden, like two birds we flew |
So cover your eyes old man in the moon |
Unless you care to see what really is not true |
You’re in the company of cowards |
It’s hard telling what they will do |
You’re in the company of cowards |
You’re in the company of me and you |
