Eddie boy lit like paraffin
|
spending two weeks
|
in a crack house
|
Burns on his brain
|
like Chernobyl
|
|
Dean was seen
|
with a two bag purchase
|
He was lying dead on his mother's bed
|
Someone for pray for-
|
till I met you
|
|
Life is like a broken arrow-
|
memory a swingin' door
|
I could be your great misfortune-
|
I can make you happy
|
every day of your life
|
Making my love
|
like a shining star
|
takin' my love just a touch too far
|
|
Tessie turns tricks with a soul like ice
|
cause love left holes
|
And four swell kids breaking her heart
|
I've got windows, I've seen much vice,
|
I've touched down with vermin,
|
Cowardice, lice,
|
And I say
|
|
Nobody cares what you do-
|
please be yourself to death
|
|
I could be your great misfortune
|
But you'll never find a, bet you'll never find a better man.
|
|
Making my love
|
like a shining star
|
Taking my love just a touch too far.
|
|
Peter met Frank
|
formed a dummy run gang
|
Worked heist or hit for 10 g's flat
|
Blew heads outta shape for the name of Trotsky, Sinn-
|
Fein, Hitler cashdown
|
No hope heroes cover the page
|
with debts in hell
|
And fingers in blood
|
Poor little bodies all covered in scabs
|
threw it all away
|
Another life in the grave
|
Another life in the grave
|
|
Life is like a broken arrow-
|
memory a swingin' door
|
I could be your great misfortune-
|
Well I could make you happy
|
every goddamn single day of your life
|
|
Making my love
|
like a shining star
|
Like a shining star
|
Baby that's what you are
|
Like a shining star
|
|
Making my love
|
like a shining star
|
Taking my love
|
Just a touch too far
|
