Last Man Standing

(album: Robert Johnson's Tombstone - 2006)

Do what you want when the world is telling you to stop
Shout out the rules then break them whenever you choose
Is forty years a long time? Ho did you forget?
You haven't learned a damn thing, like knowing when to quit

Wherever you go, whatever you do
They always seem to be ahead of you
can you tel me how long it'll be 'til you're done?
'Til you shoot our own gun at the last man standing in the sun

You can't justify your flawed agenda with a lie
Peace is no excuse if war's the only weapon that you choose
Everybody sees it plainly through your veil
No-one understands it, a mission bound to fail

Whatever you say, whoever you fool
There'll be twice as many won't believe in you
It's the same worn out song, and it'll go on and on
'Till you drop your bombs on the last man standing in the sun

How could you say shock and awe would win the day?
When dust and broken bone only builds a will of stone
Out of sight is one thing but it won't be out of mind
Until you're seeing reason for leaving it behind

Wherever you go, whatever you do
They always seem to be ahead of you
can you tel me how long it'll be 'til you're done?
'Til you shoot our own gun at the last man standing in the sun

It's the same worn out song, and it'll go on and on
'Til the last man's standing in the sun
