I hope you don't shoot at the terps I hope you don't stoop to dirty words I hope you don't send out the birds When you watch your houses come down And all the flames shooting around Up there in the air and down here on the ground I hope you don't send up the stripes Or shake your fist down at the night Or take a list down in sight your eyes When you watch your houses come down Never gonna hold your lover's hands in the air again I hope you don't shoot at the terps I hope you don't stoop to dirty words Cause dirty words are only ever heard But they're not used them stinkin' dirty words Do you know regrets, have you no regrets? Cause they didn't know anything No, they just heard that it was comin' down
