Lyrics
Cobra Con
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You wanna rock with the cops on the front line
You wanna kick it with the people in the back
You strike a match and you throw back a cocktail
There's got to be a better way
Chorus:
Cus it is harder to stay
It is harder to wait
To out-love, to out-suffer them
(X2)
I wanna dream up a world I wanna live in
I wanna spray it on a building downtown
I wanna protest for patience and a paycheck
There's got to be a better way
Repeat Chorus
Don't wanna wait
No drugs or sleep
I wanna hold your hand grenade
God bless these bombs
Baptize this rope
Lie with us in the bed we've made
Repeat Chorus
