Shed No Tears Lyrics - Generic Flipper - Flipper

Shed no tears for the martyr dying 

Only in pain suffering and death 

Can the martyr become what he's chosen to be 

No tears wasted 

No sorrow no pity 

No, no crying, no loss 

Shed no tears for the cop bleeding 

He once held the gun. he once held the key 

Now his prisoners will sing and dance and play 

No tears wasted 

No sorrow no pity 

No, no crying, no loss 

Shed no tears for the nun beaten 

By the children she once called her flock 

How they hate their teachers. who force darkness upon us 

No tears wasted 

No sorrow no pity 

No, no crying, no loss 

Shed no tears for the suicide 

He has made his choice, the pain of life is great 

And some will find it sweet to rot beneath the earth 

As we rot and live and breathe 

No tears wasted 

No sorrow no pity 

No, no crying, no loss
