BANG, YOU'RE ALIVE
(Tom T. Hall)

Tell me where society got these two kinds of kids
Why did Bonnie, why did Clyde do all the things they did
Why were they born to be this way, why were they born to hide
One day we are nothing and then bang we're alive

Was it something that they learned from someone that they knew
Or did the fate that guides us all got Clyde and Bonnie too
Do you expect that they were just examples to the wise
One day we are nothing and then bang we're alive

The masses have a conscience and we know it is in vain
Could it be that we could blame the system or machine
Who's to judge the others till the final chapter's read
One day we are something and then bang we're dead
