Sudden Death - John Cale[00:00:00]
Written by:John Cale[00:00:01]
The conference is over and they're calling out the guard[00:00:16]
The minister of justice looks so tired[00:00:23]
The gunman on the roof picks his target carefully[00:00:30]
The last thing they expected to see was sudden death[00:00:36]
The army was on full alert watching everything[00:00:53]
Trying hard not to look you in the eye[00:01:01]
If what you saw wasn't what you knew and ignorance was bliss[00:01:07]
It could happen anywhere at all[00:01:14]
UPI and Reuters were the first ones to the phone[00:01:24]
Full of information on the dead[00:01:31]
Frontpage rumours man they were just just doing their job[00:01:38]
Nothing much they could do about sudden death[00:01:44]
Somebody was talking much too loud in the village bar[00:02:57]
They pulled him out and put him down[00:03:03]
Then stood around and bragged about the way he'd died[00:03:10]
Didn't know a thing about sudden death[00:03:17]
Then the ships were leaving port full of tourists in disguise[00:03:28]
They said they'd seen quite enough[00:03:35]
Didn't matter who was dead or who was alive or who'd done what[00:03:41]
They just wanted to get away from sudden death[00:03:48]
