86 Bullets Lyrics - Tourniquet

On a hot Hawaiian afternoon in 1994 

9000 pounds of frustrated fury left the circus floor 

Years of strong-arm slavery performing silly tricks 

To give the callous crowd their share of foolish misplaced kicks 

We were not put here just to entertain you 

Just like humans - we've got our own lives too 

We were not put here just to entertain you 

Tyke left the ring and made it out onto the street 

Half hour of gunfire finally knocked her off her feet 

Her short-lived freedom finally ended in a hail of bullets 

Her blood spilled in the streets - undeserving end to a noble creature 

We were not put here just to entertain you 

Just like humans - we've got our own lives too 

You take away all the things God created us to do 

Profit from our misery as we dance on cue 

Step right up, step right up - the cruelest show on earth is ready to entertain you. 

86 bullets to finally bring you down
