CONDOR JOE
(Music: "Malibu", Hole)

Crash and burn
You don't have to die this way
Are you all that desperate
To throw your life away

Hear me please
Burn the hatred from your eyes
Oh, come on stay right here with me
Don't go out and die

But, hey, if you have to go
I'll watch you drive away, Condor Joe

Mind the road
Please don't go any faster
How can you be sane when 
You're hooked on disaster

Cry to the angels
I want to rescue you
I have to set you free tonight
You won't come back to me

But, hey, if you have to go
I'll watch you fly away, Condor Joe

Cry to the angels
Let them take you home
Go fight one last time, yeah, Condor Joe

As the sun goes down
I watch you drive away
As the sun comes up
I'll walk into the waves

And I know
This will tear me apart
Oh and I know
This will tear out my heart

I'm going where you'll go
When you fly to the sun, my Condor Joe

A lifetime of anger
A lifetime of pain
Down by the sea is where I'll
Find you again

And I can't save you
From your internal hate
And I can't save you
From your eternal fate

*     *     *
