This Bastard's Life

Why can't I beat the bankers

Deal then find a home to rob

Why can't I lie and cheat and steal

Who wants an honest job

And if I curse you night and day

My integrities been tried

While I waste a life away

Why don't you try and hide

The end has just begun

The end has just begun

Your life's been run

My bastard son

Why can't I turn off the light

And see I'm all alone

Why can't I change my liars

Life and find myself a home

And if I did where would I be

Lost in my due misery

So if there's truth you'd

Better keep it away from me

It away from me

So why can't I shut the

Window tight and keep the

Wind outside

And with no friends in sight

To help me fight the tides

My own rests in a hotel room

And on a switchblades knife

Why must I find the truth so

Soon and end this bastards life

The end has just begun

The end has just begun

Your life's been run

My bastard son
