Well he's just eighteen fresh out of school There's no way he's sitting five more years a fool He packs it in and heads out to Beijing Living with a friend that he can't quite bear But there's yang rou chuan'r and Yanjing beer Living out his newfound Asian fling Well he's out one night dancing at the club There's a whisky too many and a big bad blunt Last stop at the midnight Chinese oven And now he's playing the cardinal paf game Glass slammed on the table ain't that a shame He's just cut his left hand wide open A few years later living in DC Coverin' breaking news at a breakneck speed Refueling on fresh lime and mucho Coronas He gets off filming the fury and fire Down in Ferguson or near the Bal'more pier K street rumour has a VJ on the rise But the bang bang club and Mr Nachtwey too Tell them junkies getting high on news Adrenaline alone won't ever win the race So when the county judge lets Wilson go It's a right old riot bricks are flying low He gets smashed right then and there in the face I said this is for the boys out there Who like to get in trouble The ones who plow ahead and hold the saddle 'Cause we the kind of guys Don't care when or why We get right back up when life bury us down Life in Brussels so mondane But if he hadn't left the States he would've gone insane Depression deep under his skin now Dreams of how his lost his sight Waking in cold sweats at night He gotta find a way to fix that worried brow He feels like a loner at the EU Commission Dirty politicians and their journo minions But the doc says that he gotta to stay put It's a long cold year waiting for them refills And just when he's free of them wacko pills He drops a half-broken mirror on his left foot I said this is for the boys out there Who like to get in trouble The ones who plow ahead and hold the saddle 'Cause we the kind of guys Don't care when or why We get right back up when life bury us down Sometimes friend life works in ways Through the dark and dodgy alleways Right back where you started out so young The choices you make and the path you walk Aiming sideways at the fork Is what it takes to write a goddamn song Big blue sky shining sun Life is good when you ain't gotta run Living by the sea new beginnings He got cuts and bruises deep inside They look at him funny but he don't mind Of his life and times, he's the only king I said this is for the boys out there Who like to get in trouble The ones who plow ahead and hold the saddle 'Cause we the kind of guys Don't care when or why We get right back up when life bury us down I said we get right back up when life bury us down I said we get right back up when life bury us down
