Lyrics

?ANGELS?
(MORRIS-SCOTT)


HOLLYWOOD ACTORS,
IS THERE NOTHING THEY DON?T KNOW?

JUST POINT A CAMERA,
WATCH THEM BLOW MAN, BLOW

WHERE?S THE MONEY HIDING OUT
WHILE THEIR MOUTHS ARE RUNNING OFF?

BAD GUYS WANT TO SNUFF US FOR JUST BEING BORN
NOBODY?S TALKING'S GOING TO CHANGE THAT FORM

WE CAN FIGHT THEM WHERE THEY LIVE
OR WAIT FOR ONE TO GO OFF

(CHORUS)
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS WHO BLEED
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS YOU NEED


WE LIVE IN PARADISE AND THINK ALL WE GOT TO DO
IS LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR, HE?LL LOVE US BACK, TOO

IT DON?T WORK THAT WAY, NO MATTER
HOW HARD THAT WE WISH

I?VE SEEN IT UP CLOSE, NOT A MOVIE STORY BOARD
MILLIONS THAT ARE LIVING UNDER A MANIAC?S SWORD

THAT KIND DON?T EASY
THAT KIND DON?T GO QUICK

(CHORUS)
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS WHO BLEED
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS YOU NEED

KILLER ANGELS,
BARELY OLD ENOUGH TO SHAVE
KILLER ANGELS,
TOO SOON, IN THEIR GRAVES

HOLLYWOOD ACTORS,
IS THERE NOTHING THEY DON?T KNOW?

JUST POINT A CAMERA,
WATCH THEM BLOW MAN, BLOW

WHERE?S THE MONEY HIDING OUT
WHILE THEIR MOUTHS ARE RUNNING OFF?

(CHORUS)
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS WHO BLEED
GO GET THE ANGELS, THE KILLER ANGELS YOU NEED?
