Billy Radcliffe

(앨범: Pistolero - 1999)

Billy Radcliffe didn't go to town
And when we looked up
He was looking right down
Catching blue in his eyes that were brown
Billy Radcliffe
(Billy Radcliffe)

Billy Radcliffe, owned by the state
From his first breath
To the cemetery gate
He was the first boy born in space
Billy Radcliffe
(Billy Radcliffe)

Billy Radcliffe, very first one
He really had lived just a cursed son
A split-in-half man, sang the cherubim
Billy Radcliffe
(Billy Radcliffe)

Billy Radcliffe saw what the Devil man saw (He saw)
A spot of blue in the black of the eye of the Lord (The Lord)
Such a cruel love is the kind that has wrought, oh, Billy
Billy Radcliffe

Billy, sadly, didn't live long
He had to stay there
Because he wasn't too strong
He's stepping out the door
Blowing up like a bomb
Billy Radcliffe
(Billy Radcliffe)

Billy Radcliffe, very first one
Really a hatched man, a light switch son
A split-in-half man, sang the cherubim
Billy Radcliffe, very first one
A split-in-half man, sang the cherubim
I'll bet you cried when he died, now, did ya?
Now, did ya?

Now Billy Radcliffe saw what the Devil man saw (He saw)
A spot of blue in the black of the eye of the Lord, oh, Billy
Billy Radcliffe saw what the Devil had
And I feel very bad for William Radcliffe
