|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, let's pick a fight. |
|
We hunt for trouble tonight. |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, boys, we're right! |
|
We hunt for trouble |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
You know we're right! |
|
We hunt for trouble |
|
With our fingers dipped in blood. |
|
We hold the rifles |
|
With a hangman's heart. |
|
If reunited |
|
'Fore the last sun lie, |
|
The snake |
|
They cut in the parts |
|
That come back alive for 'em. |
|
Brother Benjamin is off in France. |
|
We're taking Trenton back again. |
|
The garrison of Hessians will fall. |
|
They say Delaware will freeze a man. |
|
We chasin' sovereigns |
|
Across the Styx and dodging ice floes. |
|
It's all on Honeyman, |
|
Our mole inside the ivy that grows. |
|
So unnatural to see this leaf |
|
So far from its home. |
|
Must deracinate the weed, |
|
Drive it out of the loam. |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, let's pick a fight. |
|
We hunt for trouble tonight. |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, boys, we're right! |
|
We hunt for trouble |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
You know we're right! |
|
With fingers frozen from tracking |
|
And groping and trapping, |
|
Found the trouble and coupled |
|
At the mouths that prize the purse from the apt. |
|
And the victim claimed by the slow mechanism |
|
That broke its opponents back. |
|
While the crimson coats were bending elbows in half, |
|
WE ATTACKED! |
|
I know you noticed the battle. |
|
It don't need quoting. |
|
It's spoken over ad nauseum. |
|
Darling, the sharpest story. |
|
Every veteran, politician, talking head'll |
|
Get on the pedestal, |
|
Spin the saga any way |
|
That will make their means our end. |
|
We, we've got ourselves a fight song |
|
For the wool they'll pull over your eyes. |
|
Tell the devil that we're coming right home |
|
Tonight, tonight. |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, let's pick a fight. |
|
We hunt for trouble tonight! |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, boys, we're right! |
|
We hunt for trouble |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
You know we're right! |
|
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR. |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, let's pick a fight! |
|
We hunt for trouble tonight! |
|
I know it's hopeless, Hell |
|
Ain't big enough to hold us back. |
|
Come on, boys, we're right! |
|
We hunt for trouble |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
Tonight, tonight, tonight. |
|
You know we're right! |
