I¡¯m gonna hide my heart behind the peacock¡¯s fan,
|
And keep my friends real close, yeah, this is how it¡¯s gonna go.
|
I¡¯m gonna find my knife and run it through those stitches,
|
Throw my friends down in the ditches before they even know
|
what I¡¯ve come here for.
|
|
Take the Heartland with a sense of revenge
|
Take the Heartland and make it look easy
|
Take the Heartland- you¡¯ll die in the end
|
Take the Heartland
|
|
I¡¯m gonna grow my hair down to my face like a Fidel Castro;
|
like a Che Guevara or a Fidel Castro
|
And I¡¯m gonna grant my folk my life¡¯s one last wish
|
and I¡¯m gonna take their life with a knife
|
and I¡¯m gonna sit and wait, not fall
|
|
Take the Heartland with a sense of revenge
|
Take the Heartland and make it look easy
|
Take the Heartland- we¡¯ll die in the end
|
Take the Heartland
|
|
Should I kill you with my sword, yeah?
|
Or should I kill you with this word?
|
|
You say sit, you say stand,
|
you say stop, you say go,
|
You say sit, you say stop,
|
You say what, you say no,
|
You say go, you say sit,
|
You say stand, you say stop,
|
You say go, you say sit,
|
And you sit and you watch us all.
|
|
Should I kill you with my sword, yeah?
|
Or should I kill you with this word?
|
|
Take the Heartland
|
Take the Heartland - your sense of revenge
|
Take the Heartland - you make it look easy
|
Take the Heartland
|
|
I set myself by the west, by the watch, by the wall,
|
I set myself by the wish, by the watch, by the wall,
|
I set myself by the words, by the watch, by the wall,
|
I set myself by the words, by the voice that I heard.
