| [00:17.97] |
He gambles on the Sabbath |
| [00:19.64] |
He's pulling at the mane |
| [00:21.77] |
He thrashes on the horse's back |
| [00:23.96] |
Ambition is a bloody game |
| [00:26.33] |
Horse doesn't want to jump |
| [00:28.14] |
The river looks too wide |
| [00:29.88] |
Well he faces every hurdle |
| [00:31.81] |
With a nervous state of mind |
| [00:35.25] |
"Stay with me, breathe deeply |
| [00:39.06] |
take three paces back |
| [00:40.56] |
turn and make a full attack" |
| [00:43.05] |
The gods are laughing |
| [00:44.48] |
And they're tugging at the reins |
| [00:46.48] |
But he's taken to his wings |
| [00:48.67] |
And they hit the bank |
| [00:50.23] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [00:52.98] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [00:56.10] |
|
| [00:58.54] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [01:01.28] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [01:03.84] |
|
| [01:15.20] |
His finger's on the trigger |
| [01:16.95] |
His eye is on the clock |
| [01:19.07] |
He doesn't give the game away |
| [01:21.56] |
And quickly fires the bullets off |
| [01:23.50] |
Six hearts cut short |
| [01:25.43] |
Still dreaming they're alive |
| [01:27.37] |
Run'round in dusty circles |
| [01:29.43] |
Like an absent state of mind |
| [01:32.61] |
Who hunter? Who victim? |
| [01:35.79] |
God love America |
| [01:37.92] |
He surely doesn't love him |
| [01:40.22] |
Hitching out of nowhere |
| [01:41.92] |
Lands in traffic knee deep |
| [01:44.12] |
A chance to stave the morning off |
| [01:45.93] |
And get some sleep |
| [01:47.42] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [01:50.31] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [01:52.87] |
|
| [01:55.68] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [01:58.56] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [02:00.99] |
|
| [02:50.85] |
He wears a crucifix |
| [02:52.22] |
His mother left to him |
| [02:54.09] |
It's wrapped in chains around his heart |
| [02:56.45] |
Rusted and wafer thin |
| [02:58.77] |
"Don't count on luck son" |
| [03:00.52] |
All the angels sing |
| [03:02.33] |
"Don't need to check a weathervane |
| [03:04.39] |
We all know what tomorrow brings" |
| [03:07.12] |
Life is a gamble from |
| [03:08.69] |
Coyotes with the mules |
| [03:10.99] |
Life is a bullring |
| [03:12.37] |
For taking risks and flouting rules |
| [03:15.31] |
Who needs a safety net |
| [03:16.92] |
The world is open wide |
| [03:18.93] |
Just look out for card sharks |
| [03:20.75] |
And the danger signs |
| [03:22.30] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [03:25.18] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [03:28.60] |
|
| [03:30.73] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [03:33.41] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [03:36.34] |
|
| [03:38.96] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [03:41.91] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
| [03:44.64] |
|
| [03:47.20] |
Heaven may stone him |
| [03:49.70] |
But Jean the birdman pulls it off |
