Dont Take Me Alive — текст песни (Steely Dan)

Agents of the law

Luckless pedestrian

I know youre out there

With rage in your eyes and your megaphones

Saying all is forgiven

Mad dog surrender

How can I answer

A man of my mind can do anything

Chorus:

Im a bookkeepers son

I dont want to shoot no one

Well I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive

Got a case of dynamite

I could hold out here all night

Yes I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive



Can you hear the evil crowd

The lies and the laughter

I hear my inside

The mechanized hum of another world

Where no sun is shining

No red light flashing

Here in this darkness

I know what Ive done

I know all at once who I am



Chorus
