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
