lyrics

TRENCHCOAT HERO



VERSE: GOT MY TRENCHCOAT, BOMBS, AND GUN
NOW IT’S TIME TO HAVE SOME FUN
UNARMED TARGETS, I WILL ATTACK
BECAUSE THEY CAN’T FIGHT BACK
COURAGE IS SOMETHING THAT I LACK
DON’T MIND SHOOTING PEOPLE IN THE BACK

CHORUS: WHEN YOUR LIFE IS LESS THAN ZERO
YOU CAN BE A TRENCHCOAT HERO
GET YOUR FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME
AND EVERYONE WILL REMEMBER YOUR NAME

VERSE: WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE ANY BALLS
GOT TO SHOOT PEOPLE DOWN IN THE HALLS
IN A WARPED MIND, IT IS COOL
TO TRY TO BLOW UP THE SCHOOL
WHEN YOUR MORALS ARE LESS THAN ZERO
THE MEDIA WILL MAKE YOU A TRENCHCOAT HERO.

CHORUS:

VERSE: IF THE CONSEQUENCES, YOU CAN’T FACE
SPLATTER YOUR BRAINS ALL OVER THE PLACE
WHEN LIFE IS CONSIDERED SO CHEAP
MAYBE HELL IS WHERE YOU SHOULD SLEEP
BECAUSE OF THE FAME THAT YOU GOT
MAYBE THE MEDIA SHOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT

CHORUS:
