Текст песни Billy

Billy, as the world tries hard to cheat death once again I've got some extra time Which I thought that I would spend By working on your song And it's shameful and I'm sorry that it's taken me so long Billy, you are always on my mind and I think back to When I first laid eyes on you at Paris On The Platte I saw you walking in And immediately fell victim to your Tractor-beam-like grin Billy, we're so different, but I think you must agree That we could not support the weight of expectation And it forced us to our knees And we set about destroying ourselves As members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult of masculinity Billy, I remember how you let me stay at your place As a birthday gift, it was on the night of July 25th And we both slept in the same bed You didn't care, you let me know That you were not afraid Billy, you have always made me feel like royalty And I always looked up to you And you always made me feel like I was loved But then I had to walk away Because I know that I would follow you Right to my own grave Billy, we're so different, but I think you must agree That we're both disappointments To so many folks in this society So we continue with the task of punishing ourselves But maybe you don't think I'm weak And maybe someday soon we'll speak Just like we used to do When you were you and I was me Billy, we're so different, but I think you must agree That we could not support the weight of expectation And it forced us to our knees And we set about destroying ourselves As members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult Members of the cult of masculinity
