Friendly Fire words by John Warwick

Don’t Look at me
With those beady eyes
It wasn’t me
The eyes are so wide

Please look away
The blood leaves the body
Your trigger hand
And the wind claims the name.

How am I gonna tell the mother
How am I ohhhh ohhhh
How am I gonna tell the father
I'm the one that put their child in the grave

Please hurry up
I’m going over
You'll aim it high
And soon I’ll be the same

How am I gonna tell the mother
How am I ohhhh ohhhh
How am I gonna tell the father
I'm the one that put your child in the grave

Don’t look at me
With those burning Eyes
It wasn’t me
Your eyes are so wide

How am I gonna tell the mother
How am I ohhhh ohhhh
How am I gonna tell the father
How am I ohhhh ohhhh
I'm the one that put your child in the grave
I'm the one that put your child in the grave
