we should fight no longer 
 we should fight no more 
 because we're like an ocean 
 but we ain't got no shore 
    you could have made it better 
 you could have made it slow 
 you could have made it sweeter, sweetheart 
 you could have let it grow   
 where i come from 
 there ain't no springtime 
 but hell on earth   
 we should drink another 
 case of sweet affair 
 we should smoke another 
 hour of midnight rain,   
 ol' rain, ol' rain, ol' rain   
 where i come from 
 there ain't no mermaids 
 but sharks at home   
 and i'm all alone.
