Texty: Libertines, The. General Smuts.

Well life is short

We spend all our time

Just fucking and fighting my friend

Well a soul can't be bought

Not with a cheap rhyme

And I know that when I die

I'm gonna go down with the general

Up with the general smuts





Well I've been stuck in a hole

And it's dark down here

Every time I've thought I've seen the light

Well it just fades and disappears

Just fades and disappears

Just fades and disappears

Just fades and disappears





I've seen a face in the shadows

And I've said "how do you do?"

And I've been living in this horror show

Which just never ends



I'm gonna go down with the general

Back to the general smuts

I'm going down with the general

Up with the general smuts





Fades and disappears

I've seen a face in the shadows

And I've said "how do you do?"

And I've been living in this horror show

For much too long

I'm going down with the general

Back to the general

Down with the general

Up with the general smuts
