Flipper - Shed No Tears lyrics

rate me

Shed no tears for the martyr dying

Only in pain suffering and death

Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be

No tears wasted

No sorrow no pity

Nono cryingno loss

Shed no tears for the cop bleeding

He once held the gun. he once held the key

Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play

No tears wasted

No sorrow no pity

Nono cryingno loss

Shed no tears for the nun beaten

By the children she once called her flock

How they hate their teachers. who force darkness upon us

No tears wasted

No sorrow no pity

Nono cryingno loss

Shed no tears for the suicide

He has made his choicethe pain of life is great

And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth

As we rot and live and breathe

No tears wasted

No sorrow no pity

Nono cryingno loss
