Love On The March

Animals come, banging their drums
 Street clears in summer
 kids run around, having their fun
 men are already drunk
 A religious holiday's begun
 maybe it's because we have no sun
 Marching begins, animals sing
 words that are twisted to
 meanings of hate, look at the face
 bitter and ready to fight
 a religious holiday's begun
 maybe it's because we have no sun
 Lost in the crowd
 shouting loud
 Drinking my fill of a bottle of gin
 I'll do anything to help me forget about you
 You're full of it,
 You hopelessly flirt
 with that girl who works in the pub for a night
 but at closing time
 you will be at my door
 Tell me what it is I have to do?
 I'd sacrifice everything for you.
 I was feeling so good and the sun was shining
 all I wanted was to get across the street
 I made my biggest mistake when I left her with a yelling match
 and a broken kettle.
 I'm sick of this, you're a little kid
 I always have to bail you out
 when you take off with your drinking friends
 and their idiot games
 If you sing the songs you half deserve to take a beat
 They beat me up 'cause I crossed the march
 they said I need to learn a bit of respect
 but I am on their side and I follow the team
 when I get out of here
 somebody's gonna get it.
