Lyrics
Go Home Simone
In the dregs of the city, where the heroes are few
The girls huddle close to for warmth
The night air is cold and the lights on the road
Set the scene for this ballad of woe
Go home Simone with the wind in your hair
Tonight there is thunder and pain
The servants of hell are tolling the bell
Go Home Go home Simone
In a rusty Mercedes, with a cracked leather trim
Crawls a soul who's already condemned
He flashes his light and like moths in the night
The girl's minds to business attend
Go home Simone with the light in your eyes
Tonight there is chaos and doom
The beast lies in wait, he's hereto seal your fate
Go home Go home Simone
Go now you must take your chance to leave
That's what the soothsayer said
Messages on the mobile phone
Go home Go Home Simone
The news crews are swarming, there's blood on the streets
Sirens drown out their reports
Girls in the gutter, madman on fire
Losing count as the death toll gets higher
Simone wasn't meant to be there that day,
Driving that lonely road
She knew when she saw the gun point her way
Her options were few to behold
Her foot hit the throttle, she slammed him so hard
Bullets cascading like rain
The smile in his eyes she had time to despise
Before darkness enveloped her brain
Go home Simone with the stars on your side
Heroes appear at their time
Your boss said 'it's late. It's after half past eight,
Go Home, Go Home Simone'
