Eddie boy lit like paraffin spending two weeks in a crack houseBurns on his brain like ChernobylDean was seen with a two bag purchaseHe was lying dead on his mother's bedSomeone for pray for-till I met youLife is like a broken arrow-memory a swingin' doorI could be your great misfortune-I can make you happy every day of your lifeMaking my love like a shining star-takin' my love just a touch too farTessie turns tricks with a soul like ice cause love left holesAnd four swell kids breaking her heartI've got windows, I've seen much vice, I've touched down with vermin,Cowardice, lice,And I sayNobody cares what you do-please be yourself to deathI could be your great misfortuneBut you'll never find a, bet you'll never find a better man.Making my love like a shining starTaking my love just a touch too far.Peter met Frank formed a dummy run gangWorked heist or hit for 10 g's flatBlew heads outta shape for the name of Trotsky,Sinn-Fein, Hitler cashdownNo hope heroes cover the page with depts in hellAnd fingers in bloodPoor little bodies all covered in scabs threw it all awayAnother life in the graveAnother life in the graveLife is like a broken arrow-memory a swingin' doorI could be your great misfortune-Well I could make you happy every goddamn single day of your lifeMaking my love like a shining starLike a shining starBaby that's what you areLike a shining starMaking my love like a shining starTaking my loveJust a touch too far
