Testo The Suffering - Fishbone

Testo della canzone The Suffering (Fishbone), tratta dall'album Fishbone Live

I saw the stars in your eyes and I knew it was puppy school love
(Stars that live and die)
You saw the twinkle in mine and we both knew it was time
To hold our breath
(And run and go jump in it)
We got lost in a sea of love and lust with a galaxy of trust
(We were so committed)
To each other like a mussel and a clam
To the movies, to the mall, glued together hand in hand
And we walked and ran through love land
Everything was fine
Until my baby took me for my very last time
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I've been misled
My, my, she sucked me dry
Now the little missus wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring (Right)
The wedding ring (Right)
The church bells ring (Oh)
And the suffering
Understand I'm a man who believes in the glory of love
(You're a fool and a sucker)
True love is the light shining bright from the heavens
The heavens above
(You poor motherfucker)
I believe, I believe it's better to trust even when I'm wrong
(Be careful, you're my brother)
Than to let my fear drive me from the home where I belong
(As I capture bless your mother)
She was my queen on reserve to protect and serve
Then she threw me a curve
Scam, skim and gold dig and kicked me to the curb
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I've been misled
My, my, she sucked me dry
Now the little missus wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring (Right)
The wedding ring (Right)
The church bells ring (Oh)
And the suffering
I know what they say on the street
She's a cheat and a thief and a liar
(And everybody knows it)
But she's my light and my love and my hope and my only desire
(Your anger can't control it)
She broke the bank then she took my car
That chick still stole my heart
'Til death do you part, you should've known from the start
Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I've been misled
My, my, she sucked me dry
Now the hoochie mama wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring (Right)
The wedding ring (Right)
The church bells ring (Oh)
And the suffering
