1905 Songtext

1905 Songtext
1905, in my hometown
Grandad built the bakery, some banker wants to close it down
They want to build a drive through, but if he were alive
Grandad wouldn′t let them and neither will I
It's damn hard to fight them, ′cause they're the rich and big
But I'll be remembered, yeah, for what I did
You can′t take it with you, but I won′t leave it behind
So if this is the day I gotta die, then I die
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
With a steel can of gasoline, I stand in the street
And I lay a trail from the front door to the soles of my feet
There'll be no re-possession, yeah, they′ll soon learn
When I drop this redhead match
Watch it, watch it, watch it burn
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
No! No! No!
Woah, 1905
Woah, I blow it sky high
High! High! High!
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
1905, in my hometown
Grandad built the bakery, but I burned it down
Grandad built the bakery, some banker wants to close it down
They want to build a drive through, but if he were alive
Grandad wouldn′t let them and neither will I
It's damn hard to fight them, ′cause they're the rich and big
But I'll be remembered, yeah, for what I did
You can′t take it with you, but I won′t leave it behind
So if this is the day I gotta die, then I die
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
With a steel can of gasoline, I stand in the street
And I lay a trail from the front door to the soles of my feet
There'll be no re-possession, yeah, they′ll soon learn
When I drop this redhead match
Watch it, watch it, watch it burn
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
No! No! No!
Woah, 1905
Woah, I blow it sky high
High! High! High!
Woah, 1905
Woah, is this the end of the line?
1905, in my hometown
Grandad built the bakery, but I burned it down
