Paroles : Take No Prisoners (Live, 2003)
The writer wrote
The singer sung
The record broke
The audience was stunned
Some they begged for mercy
Others even cried
Some they fled, left for dead
Some said it changed their lives
And the writer said, I wish you'd known me
When I still believed in the truth
Now it's all I've got left
Along with my debts and lack of youth
He said—
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
No pretty songs of compromise
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
It's a good day to die
God spoke
The people laughed
The tablets broke
While they were p*ssing on the golden calf
Some they found their heaven
And others found their hell
And some they ran to Canaan land
Some just lay where they fell
And God said, I wish you'd known me
When I still believed you'd be true
'Cause now for the rest of your days when you call out my name
I'll be Mr. God to you
He said—
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
No pretty songs of compromise
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
It's a good day to die
My lover says, why don't you touch me?
You reach out your hand just like this
You can capture my soul—you can take hold
You can kill me with a kiss
She said—
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
No pretty songs of compromise
Take no prisoners
Tell no lies
It's a good day to die
It's a good day to die
It's a good day, yeah
Thank you for coming.
