Clean Heart lyrics

Clean heart

Clean and sharp

Clean dream

Bad start

He loved his brother and his sister

Luke and Tony called him mister

They made him feel much more

Like a man

He loved his daddy though he never told him

And how he loved his mother

He loved

He loved her like an Italian

Little Janet said, "You look so fine"

So fine

Something in his smile

Made them feel like strangers

And then he straightened his belt

With a lover's touch

And he said, "I'm gonna bring home

The things that are out of your clutch"

Seemed like the hottest night in summer

A heat that makes you feel like dying

Somewhere in the next block

There was a baby crying

Finger on the trigger for the years to come

Finger on the trigger for the years to come

And as the moon slid up over the restless streets

Sirens mocking and people stop to see

Their greedy eyes don't realise

He's someone's son

Finger on the trigger for the years to come

Finger on the trigger for the years to come
