No one wants to be the knife
That's sticking out the back of a hero
Man that ain't the way to survive
Keeping cool in minus zero
No you can't save a soldier from dying
Standing on the corner of nowhere
Scratching at the golden retriever
Slowing down to smell the roses
Making deals with disbelievers
No you can't get screwed without trying
If this ain't my home I'll be on my way
It's political the way you sign my name
20 fools in a row but I come and I go
To sing a serenade
No one's gonna come here to change me
I'm standing up to fight my own war
Been bitten by the promise of violence
Now I'm kicking through the safety doors
Oh I ain't hanging on the ropes of persuasion
Trying to find a way to let go
I've overthought of thinking it over
The man behind the wheel he don't know
How to lose control
Gotta lose control
If this ain't my home I'll be on my way
And it's political the way you sign my name
Now you're breaking my bones til I get my pay
20 fools in a row but I come and I go
To sing a serenade
...to sing a serenade
To sing a serenade
To sing a serenade
If this ain't my home I'll be on my way
And it's political the way you sign my name
Now you're breaking my bones til I get my pay
20 fools in a row but I come and I go
To sing a serenade
20 fools in a row but I come and I go
To sing a serenade
20 fools in a row but I come and I go
To sing a serenade
