Bloody Bastards Lyrics & Tabs by Jordin Kare
Bloody Bastards
guitar chords lyrics
Refrain:
Here's to Calistoga, Pegasus and Liberty
And all the rest who'll join them in the race
For we're proud of NASA's heroes but we'd rather raise our glass
To the hard-nosed bloody bastards who will get us into space
They don't have fancy buildings. That money goes for tools
They build their birds with auto parts and tire rubber fuel
Spare the private space craft companies. With luck they're goin' far
And with cold cash on the barrel-head, cold cash on the barrel-head, cold cash on the barrel-head they'll take us to the stars
So… Refrain
They are business men and lawyers. They're (cartmen mason) fools
And damn fine engineers that got fed up with NASA's rules
And they're talking to the bankers using every trick they know
For they're selling dreams and promises, sellin' dreams and promises, sellin' dreams and promises ten million bucks a throw
So… Refrain
And they're talking to the bankers using every trick they know
For they're selling dreams and promises, sellin' dreams and promises, sellin' dreams and promises ten million bucks a throw
So… Refrain
It's a high stakes game their playin' but by god they're having fun
For they know that out in orbit there are fortunes to be won
And they'll bend the rules to win ‘em. Hell, they'll steal and cheat and lie
For it's devil take the highmost, devil take the highmost, yeah it's devil take the highmost, the winner takes the sky
So… Refrain
For it's not enough to walk the moon, send robots off to Mars
Nor send a lucky handful out to catch a glimpse of stars
We're gonna live and work and space. We're gonna go to stay
And the ones who'll make it happen, the ones who make it happen, yes the ones who'll make it happen are the ones who make it pay
So… Refrain
They're hard-nose bloody bastards, star-struck bloody bastards
All kinds of bloody bastards if they'll get us into space
