CHOIR
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
PJH (* = and Tricky)
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
* We lose our voice more each year
* Maybe we won't bring some
* Is there Cancer in the throat No Stress
Maybe its supposed to kill the success
* Because success needs killing
Murder is media
Forced laugh, Forged autograph,
* First my body, now my corpse
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Life is pain, Murder is fame,
* And if you're famous you might get aquitted
There's nowhere to run away
* Damn you I hope you pay
And finish the day-to-day
The games we play.
* Those men will break your bones,
* Don't know how to build stable homes.
I will stay at home
* And talk on the telephone,
Cos nothing in this world I want from you,
Don't free yourself, run and cry
Too scared to live
Too quick to die
* Those men will break your bones,
* Don't know how to build stable homes.
* Those men will break your bones,
* Don't know how to build stable homes.
* Those men will break your bones,
* Don't know how to build stable homes.
CHOIR
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Stable Homes
Those men will break your bones
Stable homes
Those men will break your bones
Stable homes
Those men will break your bones
