lyrics

A SMILING BEAST A CRYING ANGEL

All the knives in his back and the dirt in his past
Won't hide the broken teeth on his smiling face, on his smiling face
The noise of the voices talking about him,
Won't cover up the stories, he tells me all night long, he tells me all night long

Take a look, take a look behind the cell door
There's a smile on his face in the honor of future
And a tear on the floor in the memory of youth
And a finger, and a finger raised for you
Raised for you !

He's a smiling beast and a crying angel
A smiling beast and a crying angel
Ohohohoho
With « guilty » tatooed on his face
And pure gold hidden in his heart

But be sure that a demon with an angel heart will never deserve
the hell you wander in and he's telling me
« In a goddam place where victims are guilty
justice is for ever sentenced to death, sentenced to death !!! »

Take a look, take a look behind the cell door
There's a smile on his face in the honor of future
And a tear on the floor in the memory of youth
And a finger, and a finger raised for you
Raised for you !

He's a smiling beast and a crying angel
A smiling beast and a crying angel
With « guilty » tatooed on his face
And pure gold hidden in his heart
You can lock an angel in jail
A demon will get out
