Lyrics:

Sun in the sky
Man on the ground
The sweat on his palm
From the grip of his gun
It reminds him only one
Can leave this place alive

Toss of the coin
Still in the air
It catches the light
As it falls to the earth
When coin strikes the dirt
It's the end of his world

And what I want I want to know is
how you like your blue eyed boy mr death
Now that Steve McQueen has left
What can we do without you the King of Cool?
What can we do without you?

He's wasting his time
But he just hasn't got it
He's picking coins
But there's a hole in his pocket
He's waiting for the change
But every day's the same

The gambles he takes
The chances he throws
He weighs up the risks
Or just goes with the flow?
But the dealer doesn't call
Where the cards will fall

And what I want I want to know is
how you like your blue eyed boy mr death
Now that Steve McQueen has left
What can we do without you the King of Cool?
And what I want I want to know is
how you like your blue eyed boy mr death
Now that Steve McQueen has left
What can we do without you the King of Cool?
What can we do without you the King of Cool?

And what I want I want to know is
how you like your blue eyed boy mr death
Now that Steve McQueen has left
What can we do without you the King of Cool?
And what I want I want to know is
how you like your blue eyed boy mr death
Now that Steve McQueen has left
What can we do without you the King of Cool?
What can we do without you the King of Cool?

  • How do you like your blue eyed boy Mr Death?

    Bleed.

  • @SrPeterWood This line is borrowed from a brilliant E E Cummings poem 'Buffalo Bill'. On the album sleeve the lyric is written with no capitals and no punctuation - because e e cummings used neither. I will post all the lyrics later today.
