I'd seen the bottom of the barrel
or atleast I thought I had
I watch a Russian boy take crocdil and rot
a stranger sent me there to see
because of you dear friend and brother
liar, father, addict son
they kicked your Ricky out for powders cursed and constant
all he wants to do is fight
never leave a brother
never leave a brother
behind
I have no idea if what I did
was all OK our counterfeit
us friendly people pushing boulders up steep hills will always
notice who is down
and hang around
never leave a brother
never leave a brother
behind
I mean no harm, my head is loaded
with stones and sharp things waging war
on all the softer hands of people who have brighter things
and look you up and down with scorn
though you'd never leave a brother
you'd never ever ever leave him
behind
the sun comes up while I am walking
you are sleeping on a bench
a brand new jacket and a mars bar in your pocket
a sense of pride and crooked teeth
we told him he was way too young
you cursed and spat and cursed and sung
I told him not to mind your foul words
they bore a subtle kind of love
I had to clean up after your mess
I kneel and pray and beam apology
she left us swifter than a seagull
she had her drinks and flew away
I don't blame you for your hatred
I don't blame you for the sting
I wish I could be your Jesus
perhaps your mary magdalene
my broken chains and sunken sigh
my broken chains and sunken sigh
my broken chains and sunken sigh
my brother, addict, liar, son
