5 vs. 7 (Revisited) Songtext
von The Hellacopters

Come on down to earth, beside you, seeking
With a sense of direction, it comes a tumbling down
And the sky′s gone dark, the streets are stinking
And the howling wind comes a blowing through the neon town

And oh, it's sweeping over the land
Yeah the shit is saving for that band
And no, there ain′t no chosen few
It's coming down by the minute
It's sad but you′re in it too

You play along but can′t hide the pressure
Side by side with fools you feel like a king
You're just a pawn of the round and a mouse of Tesla
But you play your part very well so you don′t feel a thing

And oh, it's sweeping over the land
Yeah the shit is saving for that band
And no, there ain′t no chosen few
It's coming down by the minute
It′s sad but you're in it too


Dead set like you have a reason
Like you'd never walk away
Or so be damned for treason
And no, there ain′t no chosen few
It′s coming down by the minute
It's sad but you′re in it too

All's gone black, the sky is falling
Piling up outside the transportation camp
Time′s up, God only is calling
The previous masters trashed us for the weighted tramp

And oh, it's sweeping over the land
Yeah the shit is saving for that band
And no, there ain′t no chosen few
It's coming down by the minute
It's sad but you′re in it too

Yeah the streets are masked by the howling wind
The postcard now has fallen again
Ain′t no two steps in the crowd
With a sense of direction, it comes a tumbling down
