Dangerous Dave

He's go t a gun, he really thing he is something.
You don't have to run, he's got a sub-machine gun.
He told his mom he is gonna to join the army
Look at your son, he is gonna to be a madman
He got a uniform

Over the seas he's gonna fight for freedom
Waving the flag he's gonna be a hero
Never afraid he's gonna conquer evil
Do as he's told, he'll make a perfect soldier
He got a uniform

Watch your s soldier, for you miss the point son
Discipline soldier, for you disappoint me
You just do not,
You just do not see

Needing the sculpture to hide your lack of brainwork
Down it just hurt to have to think your suffering
Here I demand there'll be no complications
Waving the flag he will be a leadman
He got a uniform

What she said soldier, for you miss the point son
Discipline soldier, for you disappoint me
You just do not,
You just do not see

Come in a trembling castle
Turn back salvation's dragon
All bless all,
All...
All...
So down into a time where liberty and freedom
Have no significance in the current economic crisis

Don't let it get you

The facts of life are very simple
He drops the money settle down
There lots of things that may distract you
Ignore them, less they do you harm
They say a dreamer always stumbles
They say a dreamer has to fall
Unto the rocks of what is solid
Into the arms of what is old

Don't let it get you

My eyes are cracked, my body older
My thoughts all bent, my seams are torn
Stood lost in space with no direction
when suddenly I heard a clock

Don't let it get you

Ah!...

What is this point of no returning
Where I am standing with my friend
There is no basis left for loving
There is no star, gonna end

Don't let it get you
