For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those of us who live in fear
Of happy Christmas and new year
I raise a toast to you
And if it hurts to be so blind
Why don't you try being kind
They decided to become
A little more romantic
Creep upon you
While you sleep
I'll make you less attractive
Born without a spine
Why don't you try being kind
For those attempting their mother's way
You'll find a way to soldier on
For those whose love evaporates
I pray you find where you belong
All the words I have repressed
Are coming out today I guess
It's justice not respect I'm after
And that just leaves comtempt
For you all
Oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah
I am just a simple man
With simple expectations
With deep regrets
They're seldom met
God speed my generation
And with proudly on my heart
I should try being kind
For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
