lirik lagu veils – killed by the boom
he stared at the skyline with a look of avarice
he smelled the diesel of a p-ssing train
he fell with both hands still in his pockets
killed by the boom and washed away
oh no what a tragedy
say what you want about him
i say godd-mn
he wasn’t no drug dealer momma
he was a dancer
with the dull eyes of a steer and a lions mane
bear me no public opinion it never answers
whatever intuition cannot explain.
oh no what a tragedy
say what you want about him
i’ll say godd-mn
no recognition by the state nor senate
no epitaph to sing aloud his sweet name
no fourteen stations and the nineteenth sonnet
he weren’t no wealthy man but he was a man all the same
oh no what a tragedy
say what you want about him
oh no what a f-cking tragedy
say what you want about him
i say godd-mn
it weren’t the rain that killed him
and it weren’t his muddy ears
it weren’t the rain that killed him
he was killed by the boom
he was killed by the boom
