No Flowers For My Friend
Well, I’ve just slept with my Michelle on the deck
N’ I throw out the fate that I believe too fake
‘cause now my life’s gotta be the fastest it can
‘cause now I put the sound the loudest that I can
Dreams in my pocket, no time to fall down unknown
I left you, shy girl, on the grass during the dawn
‘cause Yesterday, you were just a fuckin’ pricktease
Maybe tomorrow you’ll say something like “baby, baby ride me”
(But) you’ll be anonymous for me
N' I ch arging along beneath a burnin’ sky
No time for flowers for my friend
The Grim Reaper’s known to be prowling around
(But) I’m the fastest ‘til the bitter end
It’s said they were all dressed in black, tears in their eyes
The way I was in mourning can LEAVE you surprised
I was away to charm you girl, swallowing your lies
In the game, you’ve got the full house, n’ I just smiled
Pretty poison, you drove me badly to ruin
Closin’ the doors, I throw away romantic pains
Day after day, it seems so hollow when it fades
N’ I don’t want to waste my time playin’ with such childish games
N’ gone before your bed is cold
N’ I charging along beneath a burnin’ sky
No time for flowers for my friend
The Grim Reaper is prowling around
(But) I’m the fastest ‘til the bitter end
The day after can always be the last one
So today I ‘m taking my ride
Can’t look back in time when she’s softly told me:
“I hope that you had a great time”
Tell me, were you afraid about
What you were to find behind?
I may be frightened by dead flowers
On a forgotten stone if it’s mine
But still I’m here, n’ I don’t wanna go
Like my friend before I ride
Hey daddy don’t tell me the way I’ve got to walk
‘Cause I don’t wanna live the life of another one
Yeah, it’s only bullshit I can follow no more
Hell, ‘Cause I’ve just sold my soul to Rock n’ Roll
Hey baby don’t stare at this drunk fool on the stage
I’m only takin’ a piece of fun n’ don’t give a damn
I never wasted my time in anything I done
You say the faster that I run, the faster I’ll lie six feet under
tThe only way that really matters
[CHORUS]
