Bastards On Parade
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.
I've lost all the time that I have in this world
I spent it unwisely, unwisely you see
And I can't get it back
And I can't move forward
I'm broke and I'm empty
It's over for me
If I could undo all the wrongs that I've caused
Fall to my knees pray for witness and just
But I'm just a fool a fool driven to dust
And the world ain't gonna change for me
So give me one more chance to prove these problems and frustrations
Are just manifesting memories we're destined to repeat
A second chance to prove I know right from wrong
I swear I'll do things different but can't promise to be strong
So come on all you losers, you bastards and cheats
Vagrants and barflies down on the streets
Oh, this precious salvation vindication awaits
We're marching on these Broadway streets tonight
If you can look into this old face and try to see the young man
I swear I once was pretty, not the monster you now see
But I squandered all my chances lost my faith and took for granted
This life and precious one chance, the whirlwind I'll wreak
If I could undo all the wrongs that I've caused
Fall to my knees pray for witness and just
But I'm just a fool a fool driven to dust
And the world ain't gonna change for me
So come on all you losers, you bastards and cheats
Vagrants and barflies down on the streets
Oh, this precious salvation vindication awaits
We're marching on these Broadway streets tonight
So come on all you losers, you bastards and cheats
Vagrants and barflies down on the streets
Oh, this precious salvation vindication awaits
We're marching on these Broadway streets tonight
So come on all you losers, you bastards and cheats
Vagrants and barflies down on the streets
Oh, this precious salvation vindication awaits
We're marching on these Broadway streets tonight
