Just Another Story |
Father comes home 'cos his money’s run out — |
seems a little loose tonight, he starts to shout. |
Dinner’s not on the table, seems mother’s not able, |
she’s staring at the TV. |
You can smell it on his breath, feel it in his touch, |
he never meant to hit her hard, but he’s like that when he’s had too much. |
It’s just another story 'bout going too far, |
it’s just another story 'bout going too far. |
Well the kid’s at school, she’s getting good grades, |
but the peer pressure’s starting now — too bad, she had it made. |
Seems there’s always someone trying to push you to do something, you know, |
ain’t the way they told you to — |
it’s hard to see |
the things you taught her, how to be, it’s like you told her nothing, |
selective memory. |
Come on try it, it’s just a smoke, ain’t gonna kill you, so she takes a toke — |
fade to grey. |
It’s just another story 'bout going too far, |
it’s just another story 'bout going too far. |
Well the guys at work seemed OK, they’d buy you a drink, get you laid, |
what’s wrong with that? |
Why’d they have more money than you, expensive cars, expensive clothes, |
d’you ever think of what they do? |
At night they’re out, shakin’people down, when they’re walking together seems |
they own the town. |
But hey, who’s gonna talk, you are their alibi, don’t turn around, |
don’t ask questions, just walk — |
It’s just another story 'bout going too far, |
it’s just another story 'bout going too far. |
