yeah water sounds good but well I dunno it sounds like
german cops going berserk and anyways when it's muddy
would this really help people at the bottom of a pile-up ?
I dunno, yer right I've never been on the receiving end

yeah, at a concert there might be a false alarm, but on
the other hand shit that's eight people like you and me
who aren't here to talk about what happened there.
