He tries to understand
He turns the pages
They say he's not a man
It burns in stages
And so
Here's how the story goes
He dies to let you know
That the kids won't quit
And his heart don't fit
And his life is s***
They say it's such a shame
The war and wages
They find some kids to blame
And turn their pages
But no
Here's how the story goes
He died to let you know
That the kids won't quit
And his heart don't fit
And his life is s***
He turns the pages
They say he's not a man
It burns in stages
And so
Here's how the story goes
He dies to let you know
That the kids won't quit
And his heart don't fit
And his life is s***
They say it's such a shame
The war and wages
They find some kids to blame
And turn their pages
But no
Here's how the story goes
He died to let you know
That the kids won't quit
And his heart don't fit
And his life is s***
