bulletproof heart


composers
Music: Fingerprintz
Lyrics: Fingerprintz and Jim Kerr


publisher
-


background
"Written and released originally by Fingerprintz in 1980, out of respect I asked the composer if I could rewrite the verse, as I wanted to adapt them to my own vision. I love my hometown of Glasgow for many reasons including the fact that it made me. Sadly last year it was reported that the city now has the highest murder rate per capita in Europe. My angst over this is evident in the delivery of this song." - Jim




lyrics
Some say this is a dangerous place,
Searchlights circle around this space,
Men disappear without a trace,
Welcome to this world.
Some say this is a criminal world,
No chance to be a boy or girl,
Can't believe it was all so well,
Then it got blown apart.

In this town you need a bulletproof heart.
In this town you need a bulletproof heart.

Some say this is a dangerous land,
Not the way the dream was planned,
Got strangled by the hidden hand,
It's not the dream at all.

In this town you need a bulletproof heart,
In this town you need a bulletproof, shatterproof heart.

Watch your step don't open the door,
Watch your lips don't say it anymore.
Watch you step, get your knees off the floor,
Walk out of the door.

Is there no way from there?
Some say that the night will clear,
And we'll be gone, all from here,
And we'll never once look back.

In this town you need a bulletproof heart.
In this town you need a bulletproof heart.
In this town you need a bulletproof heart.
In this town you need a bulletproof, shatterproof, killerproof heart.
