I Wanna Be A Kennedy || Kill Hannah
i wanna be a kennedy
i wanna be a big heartbreaker
live fast and for real
and you can follow it in the papers
i wanna be a kennedy
i wanna shake hands with heroes
and kiss the girls of centerfolds on the tongue
and die young
i'll be brave tonight
either live or die
i'll be brave tonight
standing tall and bright
such romantic eyes
got me hypnotized
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
i wanna be a kennedy
i wanna be tall and handsome
i'd conquer the world
and you'd see me on television
if i could be a kennedy
if i could be a big heartbreaker
i'd watch you crash into my arms
with the stars under the barrel of a gun
we die young
i'll be brave tonight
either live or die
i'll be brave tonight
standing tall and bright
such romantic eyes
got my hypnotized
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
i'll be brave tonight
i'll be brave tonight
i'll be brave tonight
i'll be brave tonight
i'll be brave tonight
i'll be brave tonight
and if i had my chance i'd never let you go
(Glad
I'm ) Not A Kennedy || Shona Laing
Living on through politics
Body-guarded, heart in bits
A blue-eyed honesty
Indigo injury
The family tree is felled
Bereavement worn so well
Giving up on certainty
Wilderness society
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy
Imagine being a Kennedy
Rule without remedy
To watch your family die
The world loves a sacrifice
Prophets longing for the three
Honouring the tragedy
They hunger for the crime
The privilege to take a life
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
Ooh, I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy
...and is not peace basically
A matter of human rights?
The right to live out our lives
Without fear of devastation?
The right to breathe air
As nature provided it?
The right of future generations
To a healthy existence?
Let us if we can step back from
The shadows of war and seek out
The way of peace...
I love the look in your eyes
I can see your soul sometimes and we laugh
When we try too hard we stop and start
Oh imagine being a Kennedy
I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy
Imagine being a Kennedy
Ooh I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy
...the cost of freedom is always high,
Yet one path we shall never choose
- that is the path of surrender or submission.
When a man's way please the lord,
The scriptures tell us,
'He maketh even his enemies
To be at peace with him'.
We will not prematurely or unnecessarily
Risk the course of worldwide nuclear war
In which even the fruits of victory
Would be ashes in our mouths
Ashes in our mouths...
Ashes in our mouths...
Ashes in our mouths...
