5 Minutes (1996 Remaster) - The Stranglers

Written by：Hugh Cornwell/Dave Greenfield/Jet Black/Jean-Jacques Burnell

I need a dream where I can live what I

Said

I need a place where I can put my head

I need a whole where I'll find darkness now

And if you hassle me mister I might just

Loose my head

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

They came on a saturday night

They killed his cat and they raped his wife

And in their eyes there was fear and hate

And when they spoke they spoke with knives

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Some say that I should hate them all

But I say that wouldn't help at all

I just want to find those guys that's all

I just want to find those guys that's all

That's all that's all

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

The night time comes and the streets they ring

With the fears of a thousand things

But if you worry about your ports of call

You'll never get nothing done at all

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Five minutes and you're almost there

Five minutes and you're almost dead

Some say that I should hate them all

But I say that wouldn't help at all

I just want to find those guys that's all

I just want to find those guys that's all

I just want to find those guys that's all

That's all

Thay says I told

My 'coz she should I hate him

That's all that

That's all that
