lyrics

Was John a loving father?
Maybe you should ask his daughters
Was Hank a faithful man?
To his wife or the boys in the band

Joseph was a contradiction
Stepped into age old friction
Ian sought unknown pleasures
Closer to a desperate tether

Have you ever shot a charging lion?
Stuck around or been relied upon

Ernest only half the time
Golden threads to calm his mind
In between a living hell
Not loved or loving well

Was Charles a vicious lush?
As lost as a bottle in the brush
Sam had a ghastly plan
Least Loretta got to stomp a man

Have you ever shot a charging lion?
Stuck around or been relied upon
Both measures are equally weighted
Only one is celebrated
Solitary trajectory in pursuit of history

How can you justify when someone’s left behind
Solitary trajectory in pursuit of history

My opinion is, I hate it

Have you ever shot a charging lion?
Stuck around or been relied upon
Both measures are equally weighted
Only one is celebrated
When it’s time to face the music
Will you just up and lose it
How can you justify when someone's left behind
Solitary trajectory in pursuit of history

WA's attack has grown more nuanced, the band crafting songs that comfortably draw from a wide swath of rock ’n’ roll while retaining punk’s ferocity. ... more
