On hands and knees

Floors like these

Washing away

Red from grey

Hearts will ache

Shotgun-shaped

No remorse

Of course, of course

Why you sing

Without reason or rhyme

Must be wrong

This explains

Where he lays

Hearts can kill

And they will

Filed reports

Of course, of course

Of course there's an explanation

Why you sing without reason or rhyme

Why you sing

Without reason or rhyme
