A song for 2005-Year of the Rooster.

Rooster


Ain’t found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat
Seems every path leads me to nowhere
Wife and kids household pet
Army green was no safe bet
The bullets scream to me from somewhere

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain’t gonna die
No, no, no, ya know he ain’t gonna die

Walkin’ tall machine gun man
They spit on me in my home land
Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
Got my pills ’gainst mosquito death
My buddy’s breathin’ his dyin’ breath
Oh God please won’t you help me make it through

Here they come to snuff the rooster
Yeah here come the rooster, yeah
You know he ain’t gonna die
No, no, no ya know he ain’t gonna die


Alice In Chains, Dirt, 1992

Oh shit. 1992 is a monkey year. :P

They've only got a few that I like though and it seems like they never play those songs on the radio.
