Buried Alive
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.
Times are hard and times are bad
Nobody is innocent
Say just what you want to see
Tell me who you want to be
See the only friend you got
Open throat and money shot
Gone for the day, out for a ride
Can't stay in here so I'm going outside
Burned in the sun, soaked to the skin
Buried alive and it's doing me in
Time is now and you're the one
Keep us from our liberty
In the night we spend our seed
Listening to women bleed
See the one you want the most
Hanging from the whipping post
Gone for a smoke, out for the day
Can't stand the pain so I'm going away
Taken in lust, given in sin
Buried alive and it's doing me in
Oh yeah!
Time to be the man you are
Nobody is gonna win
All the time we see the deal
Devil driver, hell on wheels
See the world and shoot it dead
Burn the town and paint it red
Gone for a swim, can't bear to see
How good what I can't get making me bleed
Can't make me you, I'm only a game
Buried alive, I'm going insane
Shoot me right down, can't get my fun
Don't hunt me down with a big shiny gun
Lost in the ozone, gone for a swim
Buried alive and it's doing me in
Doing me, doing me in
