Friendly
fire
David Brown & George Smith
Stick your head inside a copper kettle
Or a bedpan made of metal
Stand on a mountain when a storm is due
Invite the lightning for a barbecue
You'll be here, then gone in a flash
Smoking loafers filled with ash
There are painless ways that
you can expire
But no hurt is worse than a burst of friendly fire
Drive the
wrong way down a one-way street
Press the accelerator with both feet
Then like a wild and deadly reflection
See yourself in the other direction
Find yourself in the parking lot of heaven
Leaving behind the hell of autogedden
There are painless ways
that you can expire
But no hurt is worse than a burst of friendly fire
Keep a
hand on your heart
And an eye on your back
The person that you thought cared the most
Is the one most likely to attack
I thought we'd go out like
the dream team
Butch and Sundance in that final scene
A broken heart wasn't in the plan
Left in pieces only half a man
I never thought about an inside job
I thought we had a pact with God
There are painless ways that
you can expire
But no hurt is worse than a burst of friendly fire |
