Guns N' Roses - The General Lyrics

Guns N' Roses Lyrics

"The General"

Daddy, don't
I swear I won't
I'll be good from now on
And I'm awful sorry

Daddy, don't
The hell I won't
I won't be good anymore
And you'll all be sorry

Can anybody tell me why the pain, it just won't stop?
Can anybody help me? This pain, it just won't stop

My only regret
Is that I never took
The time to forget
All those unspoken feelings
That were never spent
On those who understand
That love deserves respect
And not your sordid meaning

Daddy, don't
I swear I won't
I'll be good from now on
And I'm awful sorry

Daddy, don't
The hell I won't
I won't be good anymore
And you'll all be sorry

Can anybody tell me why the pain, it just won't stop?
Can anybody help me? This pain, it just won't stop

My only regret
Is that I never took
The time to forget
All those unspoken feelings
That were never spent
On those who understand
That love deserves respect
And not your sordid meaning

Don't know what to tell you now
It's never really what they tell you now
You ought to know what they tell you now
Not really what they tell you now
Don't know what to tell you now
It ain't really what they tell you now
Don't know what to tell you now
It ain't really what they tell you now

My only regret
Is that I never took
The time to forget
All those unspoken feelings
That were never spent
On those who understand
That love deserves respect
And not your sordid meaning

I never ever took the time to forget
