Jerry Cantrell 31-32 Lyrics

31-32 Lyrics

You were voted most likely to have your name go up in lights

Only took a few
years to see that through

Now you're most likely to end up dead alone in a
hotel room

31/32



Roust the boy, smack the wife

Might have
one… case tonight

Alcoholic breath, thick drool

Repetitive,
belligerent, cruel



Can't get away, no hiding place

The boy
hesitates, when grown he'll make the same mistakes



Grocery checkout
line

Residing in the wellfare file

Child support, don't
receive

Mama crying, no relief



They got no home, three kids and on
her own

Revenge his name, pay back all the pain



Gutshot defender,
hole inside

Shell-shocked commander, are you alright?

Gutshot defender,
bloodstain bright, hold tight

Shell-shocked commander



Age adult,
mother gone

Friends with dad don't really talk

Wanted to, now you're a
star

Make a living milking scars



The boy hesitates, lost his
way

The boy hesitates, first and last mistakes



Gutshot defender,
fill the hole

There is no commander anymore

Gutshot defender will
survive, yes I

You are no pretender… no pretender



You were voted
most likely to have your name go up in lights

Only took a few years to see
that through

Now you're most likely to end up dead alone in a hotel
room

31/32
