Past the Mission (Live) [Vic Theatre, 24/03/94]

[Verse 1]
I don’t believe I went too far
I said I was willing, willing, willing
She said she knew what my books did not
I thought she knew what’s up

[Chorus]
Past the mission, behind the prison tower
Past the mission, I once knew a hot girl
Past the mission, they’re closing every hour
Past the mission, I smell the roses

[Verse 2]
She said they all think they know him well
She knew him better, better, better
Everyone wanted something from him
I did too, but I shut my mouth
He just gave me a smile

[Chorus]
Past the mission, behind the prison tower
Past the mission, I once knew a hot girl
Past the mission, they’re closing every hour
Past the mission, I smell the roses
Past the mission, I smell the roses

[Bridge]
Hey, they found a body
Not sure it was his, still they’re using his name
And she gave him shelter
And somewhere I know she knows
Somewhere I know she knows
Somethings only she knows

[Chorus]
Past the mission, behind the prison tower
Past the mission, I once knew a hot girl
Past the mission, they’re closing every hour
Past the mission, I smell the roses
Past the mission behind the prison tower
Past the mission, I once knew a hot girl
Past the mission, they’re closing every hour
Past the mission, I smell the roses
Past the mission, I smell the roses
This time I smell the roses
