"Three Angels" lyrics
"Three Angels"
Three angels set the table for me, tonight
They know my face, they set a place, it's for me, tonight
I can't disappoint 'em, guess I'll join 'em
They've been waiting on me forever
And I've been down on Earth and in this town
And I swear there's got to be something better
New suit, and a new tie
A real nice service for me when I die
New suit, cufflinks and a new tie
A real nice service for me when I die
Well, that's the thing about living
You get there, you're seldom forgiven
And all your best friends are people that you've just met
You can take 'em or leave 'em
They're sitting in this barroom
And I guess it beats the hell out of loneliness
Sweet loneliness, sweet loneliness
I heard you say you gave it, gave it all away
You got nothing left to trade
We're the type, we live and learn
Scatter my ashes then you smash the urn
Into a broken room with 25 doors that you can open
And each time you open one
The other 24 they're exploding, exploding
That's the thing about living
You get there, you take what you're given
And all your best friends are people that you've just met
You can take 'em or leave 'em
They're sitting in this barroom
And I guess it beats the hell out of loneliness
Sweet loneliness, sweet loneliness, sweet
All right
New suit, and a new tie
A real nice service for me when I die

Smellin' like a rose

Came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay

The Glorious Sons - "Heavy" Come heavy, or don't come at all,
You leave your piece at home, that's you're call.
It never paid to be merciful,

Triumph - "Lay It On The Line" It's the same old story all over again
You turn a lover into just another friend
I want to love you, I want to make you mine
Won't you lay it on the line

I'm tired...
