lyrics

Here some come in the early morn – ah ha
We wake up dying so no one’s wrong
Well I hear they built you a pile of rocks
Charged you twice then took their cut
Still you hear their talk, talk, talk, talk, talk

Chorus
But it’s all, all out of sorts
I fell down and could not get back up
And it’s all, all out of sorts
Its good to be alive

Verse 2
Here some come to shoot their guns - ah ha
Buy or steal or build their bombs – ah ha
Starve the kids, spread the news
Tell their friends its theirs to lose
Then you’ll see them changing all the rules

Chorus
But it’s all, all out of sorts
I fell down and could not get back up
And it’s all, all out of sorts
Its good to be alive

Harmonica Part

Verse 3
Better shout or make your stand ah - ah
Dancers sing and singers dance – oh lord
Then they’re here but when they’re gone
Killing thoughts without a cause
Still you’ll hear that talk, talk, talk, talk, talk

Chorus
But it’s all, all out of sorts
I fell down and could not get back up
And it’s all, all out of sorts
Its good to be alive
It’s good to be alive
… Soon to be a lie…
