Slaughter of Bruce (2024 Remaster)

Well, I was working in a shithole one day

Some fool came up to me

Said, "You'd make a star with that band"

I said, "It's not why I'm doing this

Why can't you fucking get it?"

'Cause all I've got to do

Is release through these obstacles I've got to beat

Release from the man who manipulates me

By the breaking of my back

Nothing left worth saving

Well, all I gotta do

Is release through the obstacles I've yet to beat

Take us to a sturdy ship

And we'll raise our glasses

No pint's too dodgy here

No, we don't need our problems here

Away from all these people, they're posing about

Waiting for the next scheme to tip them off

Leave them drowning in what they think is real

And all that's ever been, and all that's been said

It's not to my regret, you gotta face the edge of yourself

And they say if you got humor through it all

You'll find the will to survive what seems like hell!

Take me to the water, launch me out to bloody sea

'Cause all you gotta do

Is release through these obstacles you've got to beat

Take me to the water, and launch us out to sea

And may the drunken mad ones follow me
