dad's gonna kill me
Singer:devildriver
out in the desert there's a soldier lying dead
vultures pecking the eyes out of his head
another day that could have been me there instead
you hit the booby trap and you're in pieces
with every bullet your risk increases
i'm dead meat in my humvee frankenstein
somehow i never hit the mine
the dice rolled and i got lucky this time
i might get home if i can live through today
before i came out here i never used to pray
it's someone else's mess that i didn't choose
at least we're winning on the fox evening news
dawn patrol went out and didn't come back
hug the wire and pray like i told you
or they'll be shovelling bits of you into a sack
and who's that stranger walking in my dreams
and whose that stranger cast a shadow 'cross my heart
must be old death a-walking
must be old death a-walking
7 muzzle monkeys standing in a row
waiting for the sandbox to blow
sitting targets in the wild west show
another angel got his wings this week
charbroiled with his own willie pete
nobody's dying if you speak double-speak
