I only gave up setting targets
because they moved the goals again

it's such a shame
and nearly all my bullets gone
but
naturally I'll go on
and try
to change the pitch.

They tell me life's a *****
but
I don't think that's true, I just
need a slight adjustment
a bit more green
a bit less blue
you might disagree and
think that you could be immune

try to hit the bullseye
and you'll sing a different tune

The sights are bent and crooked
and we're being
taken for a ride
The have its have it all
we're on the losing side.
