Well, we gotta stick around at home
and watch these things again
tell us there can't be no change
see how this really ends
There ain't no fire in the streets
thus no fire in the hearts
everyone bought out of this
with economic stats
just give 'em rope
give 'em enough
the cheapest dope
when it gets tough
there's always one who's got it worse
at least not last if not the first
well it's a miracle
that we are still around
we keep on doing what we're doing and we do it right
well, it's no miracle
we will be going on
and we decide when it's the time to fight
real rock is between the lines
twist it, you will see it
and, by the way, the kings are us
in the Collosseum
I used to be the happy kid
no one would bother me
no money in my hand
but perspectives, living free
well, one thing hasn't changed
but my perspectives they are gone
but I have to fight agaist the fear
If future I want one
well it's a miracle
that we are still around
we keep on doing what we're doing and we do it right
well, it's no miracle
we will be going on
and we decide when it's the time to fight
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
