Charlie Songtext
von Big Pig

Charlie lives in a one room apartment
With a mirror on the floor
Sits down staring up at the ceiling
Know′s what he's looking for

Try to hold on Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie
You′ve got to hang on Charlie

Charlie lives in a one room apartment
Lying on his bed
Dreams of guns and distant thunder
Ringing in his head
Lost it on a road to nowhere
Night of the blackened heat
Ten men dead and one man sorry
Crying to the beat


Try to hold on Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie
You've got to hang on Charlie

Hold on – social grace and a ministry
Hold on - total waste impossibility
Hold on – lost my face to a foreign land
Hold on - took my heart and then my hand

Try to hold on Charlie, Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie, Charlie
You've got to hang on Charlie

Try to hold on Charlie, Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie, Charlie
You′ve got to hang on Charlie

Hold on – social grace and a ministry
Hold on - total waste impossibility
Hold on – lost my face to a foreign land
Hold on - took my heart and then my hand


Charlie lives in a one room apartment
With a mirror on the floor
Sits down staring up at the ceiling
Know′s what he's looking for

Memories of a burning summer
Trying to forget
Hoping for a bitter winter
Frozen with regret

Try to hold on Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie
You′ve got to hang on Charlie

Try to hold on Charlie
Your future is gone Charlie
Try to be strong Charlie
You've got to hang on Charlie
