Stuck Down a Mineshaft 2:34

All the songs

stuck down a mineshaft with a broken leg
stuck down a mineshaft with a dizzy spell on my brain
stuck down a mineshaft while you go for a drink
stuck down here while you entertain the officers
stuck with a vision of the evening news
stuck down here and my eyes are failing me
stuck with a rifle and a hand grenade
pin's been pulled and there's no way outta here

I am a man of few concerns
First of all my leg and the cigarette burns
I bet you already know the canary just died
But worst of all i figured out the way that you lied
I guess you made a fool of me
Did you ever tell the truth to me
Please don't tell me if you really don't love me

two king cobras they don't know what they want
stuck while you try to negotiate a ceasefire
they only know they both want the other one gone
stuck down here while you're upstairs fucking it up
third world helpless dreaming suicide dreams
stuck at the bottom with a bleeding heart

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK (VERSE CHORDS)

VERSE OUTRO
two king cobras they know just what they want
stuck at the bottom with a bleeding heart
stuck at the bottom with a bleeding heart
stuck at the bottom with a bleeding heart (both voices)
