Truck Stop Special - Anti-Mortem

The first time I saw it

It happened so fast

I didn’t turn the other way

Although I never stood a chance

You said «don't waste your life with your head in the sand»

You said «don't waste your time, son, on a fool’s errand»

Well, in this life, the rules you live by

It makes no difference, son, when it’s do or die

Oh!

Your stone’s been weighed, the dye is cast

Your crow has come, judgment is passed, yeah!

But you can’t deny the accusations

When you got the red-stained hand

This life is one of temptation

Best walk away while you can

You can’t live your life, no, with your head in the sand

You can’t waste your time, son, on a fool’s errand, yeah!

On a fool’s errand

Enough money to drown in, enough rope to hang

Trouble’s the way I’m living, child, but it ain’t nothing

I’ll educate you, boy, I’ll show you how to be

To never want nothing, son, and take all you need, yeah!

But you can’t deny the accusations

When you got the red-stained hand

This life is one of temptation

Best walk away while you can

You can’t live your life, no, with your head in the sand

You can’t waste your time, son, on a fool’s errand, yeah!

Well, this life, it’s a dead end street

Cold, dark and lonely, straight fucking mean

A race to the end, whoever gets there last

Suffers from the sorrow of losing all they had…

A fool’s errand

A fool’s errand!
