Before The Fall - The Hellacopters

Got beggars and clerks

Got teachers and kids

Elected men off work

Defrocked preachers forbid

I wonder how they can stand it

Or if they care at all

As they waste the last few days

Before the fall

Homesick prisoners

And party throwers

With all their honored guests

And they’re going nowhere

You know I cannot be bothered

Just ain’t no point at all

I’ve done a lot of screaming

But no one would heed the call

Before the fall
