sudden death - john cale lyrics
the conference is over and they’re calling out the guard
the minister of justice looks so tired
the gunman on the roof picks his target carefully
the last thing they expected to see was sudden death
the army was on full alert, watching everything
trying hard not to look you in the eye
if what you saw wasn’t what you knew and ignorance was bliss
it could happen anywhere at all
upi and reuters were the first ones to the phone
full of information on the dead
frontpage rumours… man, they were just, just doing their job
nothing much they could do about sudden death
somebody was talking much too loud in the village bar
they pulled him out and put him down
then stood around and bragged about the way he’d died
didn’t know a thing about sudden death
then the ships were leaving port full of tourists in disguise
they said they’d seen quite enough
didn’t matter who was dead or who was alive or who’d done what
they just wanted to get away from sudden death
