Falkland Rd. Songtext / Lyric

There was never a chance to get away

when was it only ever but perverse

why could they take a stone and break your arms

there could be nothing worse

except to live



Live, live little girl

sold in slavery

twenty-five men

have their way in you

burned upon the breast

with a cigarette

nothing is worse than to be born and live






There was someone at home you cared about

when was there anyone who cared for you

why could they take a spoon and break your teeth

there could be nothing worse

except to live



Live, live blighted girl

sold in slavery

twenty-five men

have their way in you

burned upon the foot

with a cigarette

nothing is worse than to be born again



Earth has lost and lost its youth

tomorrow, tomorrow will be no happy days

you will die and die and falkland road

your ashes will reek of sweat
