Asian Rut
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.
Day oh so late
Strangely the Sun still shone
Ooh Asian boy
What are you on?
Day oh so late
Strangely the Sun still shone
Oh Asian boy
What are drugs are you on?
Tooled-up Asian boy
Has come to take revenge
For the cruel, cold killing
Of his very best friend
Tooled-up Asian boy
Has come to avenge
The cruel, cold killing
Of his only friend
Ha! La, la, la, oh
There's peace through our school
It's so quiet in the hall
It's a strange sign for one
Of what's to come
Tough and cold and pale
Oh, they may just impale you on railings
Oh, English boys
It must be wrong
Three against one?
Oh
Brakes slammed, and
His gun jammed, and
As far as I could tell
Brave Asian boy
Was dealt a blow and fell
I'm just passing through here
On my way to somewhere civilized
And maybe I'll even arrive
Maybe I'll even arrive
