Songtext von Faded Flowers

Well, they shot him in Miami in a card game on the beach With the ambulance chasers and the police out of reach The mothers set fires and the fathers told lies And a word on the TV was sufficient to the wise When they don't want you any more Kick your blankets on the floor When they don't love you Blame it all on money Dying, honey Coming up much too little or too late Well, she cut out of Virginia with a little birthday money Didn't have a tan, didn't know nobody Down there at the clinic just ten months off the bus To feed a doll collection shoplifted Toys R Us When they don't want you anymore Decorated by the war When they don't love you Blame it all on money Dying, honey Coming up much too little much too late Meanwhile, back in the States Groom stands out back by a lake The congregation drank wine and beer The bride she did not appear When they don't want you anymore A faded flower on the floor When they don't love you Blame it all on money Dying, honey Coming up much too little or too late Growing up like a vampire full of hate
