the general

The Rifles
when he was younger he could rumble like a hurricane
and leave ya lying with a hunger for some novacaine
hit the switch on the light in a heartbeat
just like a worse (?worth?) there with a mean streak
but all the talent and the moneys only gunna be
every queen every king your gunna ever need
and there'll be nothing but the man and the legacy
but at the time they get through........
cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
for you dream alot, cause your really not that man you used to be
when he was younger he could rumble like a hurricane
but now he stands out like a puddle in the pouring rain
trying hard to chase an ever fading memory
before the days, grace are never gunna be
so gather round and buy a ticket for the funeral
bring your camera and flowers for the general
sit around and reminisse about the glory days
cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
for you dream alot, cause your really not that man you used to be (not someone you'd really like to be)
cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
for you dream alot, cause your really not that man that people see
