dispatch – the general [live] lyrics

[verse 1]
there was a decorated general with a heart of gold
that likened him to all the stories he told
of past battles won and lost and legends of old
a seasoned veteran in his own time
on the battlefield, he gained respectful fame
with many medals of bravery and stripes to his name
he grew a beard as soon as he could to cover the scars on his face
and always urged his men on
but on the еve of a great battle with thе infantry in dream
the old general tossed in his sleep and wrestled with its meaning
he awoke from that night to tell what he had seen
and walked slowly out of his tent
all the men held tall with their chests in the air
with their courage in their blood and a fire in their stare
and it was a gray morning and they all wondered how they would fare
’til the old general told them to go home

[chorus]
he said, “i have seen the others
and i have discovered
that this fight is not worth fighting, no
and i’ve seen their mothers
and i will no other
to follow me where i’m going
so take your shower, shine your shoes
you got no time to lose
you are young and you must be living, yeah
take your shower, shine your shoes
you got no time to lose
you are young and you must be living
go now, you are forgiven”
[verse 2]
but the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders
not knowing what to do with these contradicting orders
the general said he would do his own duty, but he would extend it no further
the men could go as they pleased
but not a man moved, their eyes gazed straight ahead
’til one by one, they stepped back and not a word was said
the old general was left with his own words echoing in his head
he then prepared to fight (let’s hear you, boston)

[chorus]
to follow me where i’m going
so take your shower, shine your shoes
you got no time to lose
you are young and you must be living, yeah
take your shower, shine your shoes
you got no time to lose
you are young and you must be living
go now, you are forgiven

[outro]
идите, вас простили

идите, вас простили
идите, вас простили
идите, вас простили
идите
идите, вас простили
идите, вас простили

go now, you are forgiven
go now, you are forgiven

go now, you are forgiven
go now, you are forgiven
go now
go now, you are forgiven
go now, you are forgiven
go now, you got to be, got to be
got to be living
got to be living
you got to be living, woah, woah
you got to be living

you are forgiven, woah, woah (you go now, beantown)
