lyrics

All the best heroes
Die young before they’re done
With their courage on the line
Stare down a loaded gun
The dark one will win some battles
And take the hero who won’t run
But all those dead heroes
Give courage to our sons

Better beaten by a bully
Than a coward to the call
John Wayne takes a bullet
Alec Guiness takes the fall
No compromise of heart
Stand alone to show us all
They’ll die for what is right
With their backs against the wall

Against stupidity
The Gods fight in vain
But there’s not a war on
That the hero cannot win
He may miss the final showdown
But he won’t commit the sin
Of givin’ up on what is hard
‘N that gives victory to the men

Ed Verner Florida

A withdrawn and somewhat reclusive renaissance man of lyrics, logic, and lullabies, Ed Verner prefers you to hear his piano rather than know him.
