THREE O'CLOCK HEROES - A Bullet Makes You Famous

A BULLET MAKES YOU FAMOUS

We don’t need a hero, we don’t need an idol like you
I feel sorry for you, but this is all I can do
A private depression, a one way ticket to the end
And no one helps you out if you ain’t got no friend
And the papers are filled with blood and glory
And they write your name into the endless story
Suicide made you at last a martyr, a genius, a superstar

This is not a trick
A bullet makes you famous
If you believe in it then a bullet makes you famous
But you’re just a lunatic to think a bullet makes you famous
When you realise that you’ll pay the price
You are just the victim of a selfmade lie
And the company makes all the profit out of it
Shit

We don’t need a hero, we don’t need an idol like you
I don’t feel any sorrow and I despise you
White man’s racism is not an excuse for your definition
When you use the same tools
If you want to be a ‘gangsta’, do what you must do
But don’t mix it up with musical power abuse
And the money that you’ve got of selling crack
Is invested now in a violent rap
It’ no matter of your colour to be an ass
When you’re making money out of hopelessness

Lennon
JFK
It’s not the bullet that makes you famous
Martin Luther King
It’s not the bullet that makes you famous
Rosa L. and Che
It’s not the bullet that makes you famous
