Shooting Lifesavers
It doesn't matter anymore
Not to me anyway
Why should I care what you think
Do you ever think of me
You're so full of greed
Because you consumed it in the eighties
And they bait you in the states
With their american awards
So sad, such a sham, what a shame
It doesn't matter anyway
Not to me anymore
You're no comedian but, celebrities are all the same
Shooting lifesavers
And wishing on falling stars
So you can smoke more on the corners
And drink scotch at the bars
Shooting lifesavers
Like the fake friends that they are
And discovering more to life
When it's too late to start a fire
It's almost over now
Don't be ashamed
For the things you did you had to do
In sunshine and the rain
So don't you worry your poor head
or even try to try explain
It doesn't even matter now
The rest can live in pain
Shooting lifesavers
And wishing it would end
So all the torment Devil gave
Would get you in again
Your friends are shooting lifesavers
Because they want to live
But are their lives worth more than nil
If they haven't any give
I would rather end it all
Then shoot lifesavers again
So i could save them up, then give
My lifesavers to my friends
