Painted Soldiers - BBC In-Studio, Steve Lamacq Evening Session, March 15, 1995
Why'd you have to say those things
About my face, about my name?
I didn't want things to be this way
I didn't want things to be this way
All my soldiers are painted
And I'm one of them
But I'm still dedicated
To my friend
Why'd you have to say those things
About my faults, about my sting?
I didn't want things to be this way
I didn't want things to be this way
All my soldiers are painted
I'm one of them
But I'm still dedicated
To my friends
I knew he liked to talk about himself
But he wanted the whole world to know
It made me sick inside
I just gotta hold back
And if your soldiers are painted
Don't be like one of them
But if you're still dedicated
It's all right
About my face, about my name?
I didn't want things to be this way
I didn't want things to be this way
All my soldiers are painted
And I'm one of them
But I'm still dedicated
To my friend
Why'd you have to say those things
About my faults, about my sting?
I didn't want things to be this way
I didn't want things to be this way
All my soldiers are painted
I'm one of them
But I'm still dedicated
To my friends
I knew he liked to talk about himself
But he wanted the whole world to know
It made me sick inside
I just gotta hold back
And if your soldiers are painted
Don't be like one of them
But if you're still dedicated
It's all right
