Final Straw (Live) - R.E.M.

We'er just a pair of kids With no common sense We don't know what we did Let's make amends I never thought I'd be Workin' for the evil one His wretched and his wicked ways Are second to none We're out on a mission Don't wanna sell our souls Driven by ambition To take back what he stole So as the brothers that we are Together we band This is the last and final straw So take my hand, man! We shall be shooting for the stars We're takin' a stand This match will get so very hot So take my hand, man! We're just a pair of kids We rolled the dice Why did we take that chance? We paid the price Money was at our grasps We were enticed But he played a trick on us The devil ain't very nice Contract after contract Walking all over the town You will all be ransacked! And we will take the crown! Oh Oh Oh So as the brothers that we are Together we band This is the last and final straw So take my hand, man! We shall be shooting for the stars We're takin' a stand This match will get so very hot So take my hand, man! So as the brothers that we are Together we band This is the last and final straw So take my hand, man! We shall be shooting for the stars We're takin' a stand This match will get so very hot So take my hand, man!

We're leaving together But still it's farewell And maybe we'll come back To earth, who can tell? I guess there is no one to blame We're leaving ground Will things ever be the same again? It's the final countdown The final countdown Ohh We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall 'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all, yea With so many light years to go and things to be found (To be found) I'm sure that we'll all miss her so It's the final countdown The final countdown The final countdown (The final countdown) Ohh ho ohh The final countdown, oh ho It's the final countdown The final countdown The final countdown (The final countdown) Ohh It's the final countdown We're leaving together The final countdown We'll all miss her so It's the final countdown (The final countdown) Ohh, it's the final countdown Yea
