Weighed and Found Wanting by Mngl Hrde Lyrics
Shot in the face, shot in the hip, shot in the leg
Both ankles too but he kind of enjoyed it
Escaped from the camp
Jumped out of the plane
Chewed his own damn fingers off and said he enjoyed it
Fought in the fires
Fought with the Poles
Fought in the second war and more and still he kind of enjoyed it
Still find the time
To write it all down, well some of it down
Not the names of the women and children but
Still he enjoyed the war
Take a good hard look at yourself
Deal with the cards you were dealt
You got two eyes and two functioning arms
But you're still a fucking weasel
And it's not an empty pissing contest
Because wide-eyed will always suckle the leaders
Come the next gathering storm
We'll be weighed and found wanting
Bastard at birth, son of a king
Swearing like a seasoned trooper but he never surrendered
Escape through the hills
Dressed in a sharp suit
Walking solo to the border, he never surrendered
Saw through the reds, called Mao a cunt
Broke up the dinner's and the speeches and never surrendered
Understood well, better than most that somewhere deep down
Everybody has to decide a line that they will not cross
Take a good hard look at yourself
Deal with the cards you were dealt
You've got two eyes and two functioning arms
But you're still a fucking weasel
And it's not an empty pissing contest
Because wide-eyed always swallow their medicine
Come the next gathering storm
We'll be weighed and found wanting like a weakling child
Despite the arch cynical pose, if we chose to
There are still some things that we could defend
And when the idealists start marching again
Now tell me, who's going to stop them?
This isn't some empty pissing contest
But the wide-eyed can be relied on to pick the wrong side
Come the next gathering storm
We will be weighed and found wanting
Both ankles too but he kind of enjoyed it
Escaped from the camp
Jumped out of the plane
Chewed his own damn fingers off and said he enjoyed it
Fought in the fires
Fought with the Poles
Fought in the second war and more and still he kind of enjoyed it
Still find the time
To write it all down, well some of it down
Not the names of the women and children but
Still he enjoyed the war
Take a good hard look at yourself
Deal with the cards you were dealt
You got two eyes and two functioning arms
But you're still a fucking weasel
And it's not an empty pissing contest
Because wide-eyed will always suckle the leaders
Come the next gathering storm
We'll be weighed and found wanting
Bastard at birth, son of a king
Swearing like a seasoned trooper but he never surrendered
Escape through the hills
Dressed in a sharp suit
Walking solo to the border, he never surrendered
Saw through the reds, called Mao a cunt
Broke up the dinner's and the speeches and never surrendered
Understood well, better than most that somewhere deep down
Everybody has to decide a line that they will not cross
Take a good hard look at yourself
Deal with the cards you were dealt
You've got two eyes and two functioning arms
But you're still a fucking weasel
And it's not an empty pissing contest
Because wide-eyed always swallow their medicine
Come the next gathering storm
We'll be weighed and found wanting like a weakling child
Despite the arch cynical pose, if we chose to
There are still some things that we could defend
And when the idealists start marching again
Now tell me, who's going to stop them?
This isn't some empty pissing contest
But the wide-eyed can be relied on to pick the wrong side

We will be weighed and found wanting
