Dropkick Murphys - Never Again lyrics

[Originally by Angelic Upstarts] Never, never, never again Will Tommy die for you Over the top the unknown go Into a land where no man lives Say goodbye to his friends Cause they will never see Tommy again General, general on the top of the hill Middle cla** man whose blood won't spill Kept out of the action, out of harm's way Cause he's gonna find that Tommy's dead Never, never, never again War is over so they say How many Tommys died that day Now it's over count the cost A ring of roses for those that lost A place in history is what they've got For what they paid it's not a lot Medals and statues are no compensation For working cla** heros who died for you Never, never, never again Will Tommy die for you Over the top the unknown go Into a land where no man lives Say goodbye to his friends Cause they will never see Tommy again General, general on the top of the hill Middle cla** man whose blood won't spill Kept out of the action, out of harm's way Cause he's gonna find that Tommy's dead
