What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Living on them pills, he was lying in squalor
2
That's the life of the late night bar crawler
3
Most outrageous man I met he once said
4
I could take a belly full of lead and wouldn't wind up dead
5
He wanted his song to make you shiver
6
A little like there's a ghost coming your way
7
Have you ever been told that something's forever
8
And had your heart broken the very next day?
9
Shout it from the rooftop
10
You can shout it from the rooftop
11
But you can't tell it to the paper
12
They've already been paid
13
To be ten different people that's easy
14
It's easier than being yourself
15
I'm the one who pretends that I'm not happy
16
Picking life off the shelf
17
He taught me time wasted is time spent well
18
The a man's dead if he doesn't have a story to tell
19
Dead if he's lying in a dirty jail cell
20
'Cause when your down they'll kick you
21
The jury doesn't matter at all, the jury doesn't matter at all
22
Tell me officer when your baton kissed me did it make you feel tall?
23
And no one asked you where you come from
24
No one told you of these times
25
No one asked you where you come from
26
No one told you of these times
27
This is your life don't waste it
28
Why don't you run away?
29
A man to reckon with, he knows how to persuade
30
You won't get a sun tan in this government shade
31
Does it make you quiver a little the way they say
32
That we're gonna fuck you
33
Take a little bit of freedom away everyday
34
You can shout it from the rooftops
35
You can shout it from the rooftops
36
You can shout it from the rooftops
37
But you can't tell it to the paper
38
They've already been paid
