The Gits - Slaughter Of Bruce lyrics
rate meI was working in a shithole one day<br />
<br />
Some fool came up to me and said<br />
<br />
"You'd make a star with that band,"<br />
<br />
I said, "it's not why we're doing this,<br />
<br />
why can't you fucking get it?"<br />
<br />
'Cause all I've got to do is release through<br />
<br />
These obstacles I've got to beat<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Release from the man who manipulates me<br />
<br />
By the breaking of my back,<br />
<br />
With nothing left worth saving<br />
<br />
All I gotta do is release through the<br />
<br />
Obstacles I've yet to beat<br />
<br />
Take us to a sturdy ship<br />
<br />
Where we raise our glasses<br />
<br />
No pints too dodgy here<br />
<br />
We don't need our problems here<br />
<br />
Away from all these people,<br />
<br />
They're posing about, waiting for the next scheme<br />
<br />
To tip them off and leave them drowning<br />
<br />
In what they think is real<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
All that's ever been and all that's been said<br />
<br />
It's not to my regret, you gotta<br />
<br />
Face the edge of yourself<br />
<br />
And they say if you got humor through it all<br />
<br />
You'll find the will to survive what seems like hell<br />
<br />
Take me to the water, launch me out to bloody sea<br />
<br />
'Cause all you gotta do is release<br />
<br />
Through these obstacles you've got to beat<br />
<br />
Take us to the water<br />
<br />
Launch us out to sea<br />
<br />
And may the drunken mad ones follow me
<br />
