Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine Skywest And Crooked
Sky west and crooked
Twisted and strange as f..ck
Outside the bookies
Window shopping for a change of luck
With love in our hearts
We've got it in spades
Sky west and crooked
You could have been the talk of the the town
But the whole place stayed speechless
Your upbringing brought you down
With love in our hearts
We've got it in spades
If we club together
With all the diamonds we've saved
We could look to our hearts and say
We've got it in spades
Sky west and crooked
So your whole life has been a catastrophy
But don't kill yourself stupid
This ain't the dead poets' society
And with love in our hearts
We've got it in spades
If we club together
With all the diamonds we've saved
We could look to our hearts and say
We've got it in spades
I have lived almost 50 years,and I've seen life as it
is. Pain, misery, hunger, cruelty beyond belief. I've
heard singing from the taverns, and the moans from the
bundles of filth on the streets. I've been a soldier
and seen my comrades fall in gunfire or die more slowly
under the lash in Africa. I've held them in my arms at
the final moment. These we're men who saw life as it is
Yet they died dispairing. No glory no gallant last
words. Only there eyes filled with confusion wimpering
questioning why? I do not think they asked why they
we're dying, but why they had ever lived
