Six Feet of Rope and Revenge Lyrics
At the end of the rope is a dead road
He jumped to the lion’s den
The noose was tied tight all around his neck
He used sand and blood to entertain
Life is short and the rules are long
They’ll beat you again and again
When push comes to shove, your time is up
Don’t extinguish your flickering flame
This is not the way to live
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
His copper colored heart, exposed to the world
He spelt pride with his hammer and his tongue
Face to the wall, he put his back upon it
And sank to oblivion
And a moment
The heavy heart should stand to a bitter end
The growing crowd is baying for blood
They want six feet of rope and revenge
This is not the way to live
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
This is not the way to end
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
He jumped to the lion’s den
The noose was tied tight all around his neck
He used sand and blood to entertain
They’ll beat you again and again
Don’t extinguish your flickering flame
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
He spelt pride with his hammer and his tongue
Face to the wall, he put his back upon it
And sank to oblivion
The heavy heart should stand to a bitter end
The growing crowd is baying for blood
They want six feet of rope and revenge
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
Life’s too short to waste, my friend
