Stockyard Stoics - Sad Songs lyrics

Sad songs Well the good guys keep on getting f**ed While the ba*tards they have all the luck Lie and cheat and k** and steal And smiling wheel and seal the deal The deal that keeps our days so dark The deal that keeps our soil so parched And until that mess gets sorted out It's what we'd best keep talking about The night is long and cold the stars don't shine There's no rage no change and no more time I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones Don't get the glad songs but that's alright I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones And i'll sing them sad songs all through the night Better to have tried and failed then never tried at all Better to have got knocked down than sat with our backs up against the wall Twenty-five years now come and gone And I'm still here singing this same sad song On down the line this is where I'll be Pissed and dissed and living free The night is long and cold the stars don't shine There's no rage no change and no more time I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones Don't get the glad songs but that's alright I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones And i'll sing them sad songs all through the night Like the man on the street With no shoes on his feet Some things never change Some things don't explain away Some things don't fade with light at the end of a long hard day All my best plans end up f**ed up All your best friends fall down drugged up And the starved and the raped and the scarred get nothing at all Nothing at all In the dry and the dark just waiting for the rain to fall And waiiting for the sun to shine But in the meantime Better to have tried and failed then never tried at all Better to have got knocked down then sat with our backs up against the wall Until the sun shines down on the rains Below and the seeds all start to grow These sad songs keep on flowing The night is long and cold the stars don't shine There's no rage no change and no more time I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones Don't get the glad songs but that's alright I like the sad songs Don't mind the mad ones And i'll sing them sad songs all through the night
