Fish – Brother 52 lyrics
Doc: "Tattoo Shop"
Fish: "Hi Doc"
Doc: "Hey Fish, what are you doin' "
Fish: "If you don't mind, we're gonna record this. Is that cool? "
Doc: "Oh that's cool as hell. Hell yeah, 52's biggest dream man.
You know his biggest dream was, me and him go party with
you."
On the trail of torn out twisters two angels on a mission came
dust devils danced before them in the path of the hurricane.
On the road to Oklahoma through the flatlands from L.A.
from the shadows in the valley from a country where the
lizards play.
While they drove they kept the radio on, why don't you
singalong,
singalong, singalong.
Chorus:
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
I don't think so.
A man stands behind his shadow, a man stands behind his words.
These men are together with family to defend their rights in another
man's world.
Most people stood against them, most people disagreed
with the need for all those weapons in our safe, secure society.
Paint the words and the pictures on another man's skin
We are lovers, warriors, magician kings.
Chorus:
Brother 52
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
I Don't think so
Doc: "F***ing brilliant man. OK. Here's what happened,
52 barred the door shut from the inside. A gunfight started on the front
porch.
52 shot back. You know...they come into his home with it, so he's
protecting himself.
The guy inside the house blew his brains out. Yeah they made it look
like he killed himself.
But, no one believes he would, coz he's not that kind of man.
That's all, I think, he wasn't afraid of death.
You know, if he believed in something to die for, that's what he did."
Some say he had it coming, others say he was sole to blame
but who says they've got the rights if any at all to blow the brothers
away.
A man got a right to wonder, a man got a right to dream,
without looking over his shoulder to choose the manner
of the life he leads.
One man's thoughts on another man's skin
We are lovers, warriors, magician kings.
Chorus:
Brother 52
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
Well I don't think so
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
We don't think so
Tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo Brother 52
I Don't think so
Doc: "What they have done, was they've come in and murdered him,
for his bombs, his ammunition. Just like Waco Texas or any of these
other things,
over here in the United States. Anybody that's stockpilling arms and
amunitions,
is a threat to the government. So the Government wages war against us.
They tortured him, he went out, I am sure he stood up like he was
supposed to you know.
They smashed all the rings shut on his fingers, with a hammer.
It was all an orchestrated plan man. The more, the closer I was getting
to the truth,
the more they got everybody looking at me as being the guy that pulled
the trigger.
And what they did when they killed 52, is they broke the whole familly
up.
That's exactly what they wanted to do,
they wanted to break all of us up."
