Bullets in the rain
There’s a bullet
Going round
Looking for
My head
And this car
Is out of gas
Once again
I need new shoes
And a suit
If I’m gonna
Beat these blues
And make my
Way back home
On the train
There’s a cop car
Looking round
And I’m sure he
Heard the sound
Of your voice
Calling in the back
Of my brain
As you was saying
"Don’t come back,
There’s no more work
For scarecrows Jack
Who, just stand around
Waiting for bullets
In the rain"
