letra de the killing of the village idiot - springtime

held up to the light with tweezers
the land of aches and pains
appear to some outsiders
quite in the need of being saved
oh, but from way up in their blackhawks
all the locals look like ants
all of their poppy milking dancing boys
would’ve never stood a chance

enter gallant soldier c
like a man without a leader
what’s a farm boy meant to do but run
when he swoops out of the ether with his gun
oh and he k!lled the village idiot
to win his heart and mind again
but his winning means you losing
when you’re running and he shoots you in the back of your head

but now some operator’s worried
that they’ll be getting a bad name
among the locals convinced way way back
that they were all the f-cking same

but who cares what carpetbaggers on the maker got to say
that a lonesome afghan farmer just trying to live another day
and now it’s bye-bye tail between your legs
another empire in the grave
pretend that nothing’s happening
pretending like the day’s been saved
but in an outpost on a mountain
local fighters smoke their hash
by a humvee up on blocks in a burned out stable
the years go by, loyalties shift
like the seasons in the valleys
but it’s fair to say that fair play’s just some far off fairy tale
c
