Green Day parody lyrics
Forever Down
For use with Forever Now
(What does the markup on these lyrics mean?)
My name is Buccaneer and I’m freaking out
I sought through all these words to get you figure - d out
I strive to-know what happened to your hair
Faded from memory as if it was never there
Standing at the edge of the Pearl
Not giving me the chills
Looking down the edge of the Pearl
Seeing you down there is freaking me out
Burn-my lights and back-out
From the edge of the Pearl[x2]
Tis like a bunk locker under the waves
The audience hard - ly knows that you were not born this way
You never learned to lead your life so well, I-can tell
Went on to take out your-heart though it hurt like hellIf this is what you call the good life, I want a better way to die[x2]
Oh I
Don’t wanna see you old-Jones
Don’t wanna see, it’s impossible, so
It doesn't matter anyway
Oh I
I wanna start a revolution
I wanna make it be piratical
And blow you off another day
You been a true conspiracy
In surviving with your veins sliced
And could-you not
Have had a better way to die
I’m sunk away to somewhere down where I don’t want to be
Pirate legends like-the Dead Man’s-Chest ain’t what they used to be
I never wanted to compromise or bargain with my soul
How did a life on the wild side ever get so dull
Somewhere downI ain’t gonna stand your blight no more!
I am going [x2]
