American Princes - Watch As They Go lyrics

There wasn't anyone around Another lonely night in your town I think that you knew what you found A friend to buy you another round I know they told you about a man He was a stain on the nation I know that you do what you can But it's an order not an invitation What will you take to forget what you know Now I'll show you where to sign And await your execution 'Cause once you put it on the line I'll be glad to take your contribution You were attracted by the sound Of the machine generation We've got to get you on the ground There is no room for moderation What will you take to forget what you know What will you leave for a tip when you go Laws to break and rules to bend them Don't pretend you will defend them Sit and you watch as they go I know you've got a lot to give Don't forget your will to live Sit and you watch as they go There was shooting all around You saw a ditch and put your face in And now it's trouble that you found How did you end up in this situation Hey it's gonna be alright It won't be getting any worse then You're gonna make it through the night You're gonna try to be a better person
