Lyrics
WALKING WOUNDED (C) 2000 BY KEITH H. ANDERSON
Walking wounded
Coming down the avenue
We pay the price now
For treating them so cruel
Walking wounded
They will follow you
We pay the price now
For treating them so cruel
They act just like you and me now
But inside their hearts just grow wild
Dapper and tan like a sun child
Killer's touch behind the big smile
All of the secrets we're raising
Will end up just driving us crazy
You can say it's just a brainwave
Gone astray, the rest of us are okay
But inside it's like a virus we carry
But it doesn't have to kill us
The gods will always
Be standing downwind
We look at them and then we look within
Walking wounded
Coming down the avenue
Come on people, come on people
They look like me and you
Look like me and you
Walking wounded, wallking wounded
They will follow you, they will follow you
We pay the price now, we pay the price
For treating us so cruel
Walking wounded,
Ohhhhhooooo
They will follow you,
They will follow you
Come on people,
Come on people
They look like me & you,
Look like me & you
Walking wounded,
Walking wounded
Coming down the avenue
Coming down the avenue
We pay the price now
We pay the price now
For treating them so cruel
Treating them so cruel
We pay the price now
Treating us so cruel
Walking wounded
Oowwwwwwwwww
