Blood and Mud

Once upon a time or something like that We set about the town to have ourselves a chat Her name was Doreen, it was 1917 Her eyes were big and green like none I'd ever seen I ain't no Romeo but I'm doing my best If I can find a way she'll take care of the rest Her name was Doreen, it was 1917 My hands have stayed clean, if you know what I mean Stop now, blood and mud, you're wasting my time All the tricks you've pulled just to bleed them white I can't think of no better than a fun little lie Smell, No Taste, oh the ties that bind If you have troubles gotta put 'em on hold The world's upside-down haven't you been told? Her name was Doreen, it was 1917 Why don't you just lean on this cloud of chlorine? In the end we ride into the sunset No one really minds that the story's not done yet Her name was Doreen, it was 1917 We'll keep the blade keen with this new machine Oh stop now, blood and mud, you're wasting my time All the tricks you've pulled just to bleed them white I can't think of no better than a fun little lie Smell, No Taste, oh the ties that bind I look around myself, I see myself reflected in your eyes No one sees the smoke until the fire is out of control Look around yourself and see yourself between the flesh and flies No one loses hope until the stone has started to roll No one loses hope until the stone has started to roll No one loses hope until the stone has started to roll Stop now, blood and mud, you're wasting my time All the tricks you've pulled just to bleed them white I can't think of no better than a fun little lie Smell, No Taste, oh the ties that bind Her name was Doreen, it was 1917
