Someone Else Will

Del Amitri


I ain't gonna laugh at this no more 
Or let it just slip by 
I ain't gonna watch this 'til I choke on the lie 

I ain't gonna take this anymore 
I ain't sitting quiet 
You can tranquilize my mind with phony hope 
But I don't buy it, no I don't buy it 

'Cause you will kill me when you have to 
And you will tie me to the table 
And you will tell me that you don't want to, 
But if you don't, you know someone else will 

And I ain't gonna listen anymore 
Obedient and polite 
And I ain't letting killers so like me sleep tonight 

And I ain't gonna play my part no more 
Their sentence, it ain't right 
'Cause you can think you're free, but I'll leave you 
To serve my time, serve my time 

'Cause you will kill me when you have to 
And you will tie me to the table 
And you will tell me that you don't want to, 
But if you don't, you know someone else will 
You know someone else will
