«Everytime you close your eyes you see a memory»

Uno de los highlights del segundo disco de The Rifles es sin duda este tema.  Para este disco, el grupo quiso expandir sus horizontes y con un poco de dinero ganado por el primer disco, lograron meter cuartetos de cuerdas en sus canciones, siendo mas notorio en esta, una de las últimas canciones que grabaron para su disco y sin duda, la mas ambiciosa que han hecho hasta la fecha. Inspirada la letra, por cierto, en Mike Tyson.

The Rifles – The General

when he was younger he could rumble like a hurricane
and leave you lying with a hunger for some novocaine
hit the switch on the light in a heartbeat
just like a worse there with a mean streak
but all the talent and the moneys only gonna be
every queen every king your gonna ever need
and there’ll be nothing but the man and the legacy
but at the time they get through……..

cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
boy, you dream alot, cause your really not that man you used to be

when he was younger he could rumble like a hurricane
but now he stands out like a puddle in the pouring rain
trying hard to chase an ever fading memory
before the days, grace are never gunna be
so gather round and buy a ticket for the funeral
bring your camera and flowers for the general
sit around and reminisce about the glory days

cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
boy, you dream alot, cause your really not that man you used to be (not someone you’d really like to be)
cause everytime you close your eyes you see a memory
boy, you dream alot, cause your really not that man that people se
