TOO LITTLE TOO LATE

Never mind the reason
Talking ‘bout the bitter hand of fate
Robbery and treason
Never mind the system or the state
Indians lose to cowboys
Arrows in the gate
Comedians lose their timing
Dogs without a mate
And for every winner
Some other sucker has to wait
So shine on through your fate – too little too late

I’m talking ‘bout vermilion
Talking ‘bout the colour of my hate
You made damn sure I need you –
Turn around and tell me needing’s straight
Well Indian’s lose to hunger
Never seen a plate
David beat Goliath
But David was a saint
And for every birthday another sucker cooks a cake
So shine on through your fate – too little

Too late for the judge, too little for the jury
Long in the tooth for the fire and the fury
Never trust a preacher with the power and the glory

Well Indians lose to cowboys
Arrows in the gate
David beat Goliath, but David was a saint
So keep your Christians and your Barnaards
You’ll never make a dead heart generate
Just shine on through your fate – too little

Too late for the judge, too little for the jury
Long in the tooth for the fire and the fury
Never trust a preacher with the power and the glory
