So black, it's a desperate night

20 years back from today

One mother and a ki d name Tony

Learning life the hardest way , and I say...

Daddy has gone too soon

For the young boy to stay cool

Couplet 2

Well, Tony rul es in the schoolyard

Everybody says

Blue eyes clentched fists an d many reasons

For Tony to go astray

Ah ah: at night he likes to roam

Ah ah: he's the only man at home

Refrain

x3

La la la la la...

Couplet 3

His heart is bi g like a mansion

That is all you need to know

The Young boy has become a youn g man

But the rage didn't cease to grow

Petit pont :

Hey boy the path you are taking will lead you st raight to the wall

Hey boy you're looking for troubles, I'm a policeman af ter all

And you wont get away

Bang bang i've got you on sight my friend Ohohoh...

Refrain

Pont

Ah ah: mister o fficer you were right

Ah ah: littl e Tony boy turn out bad

Ah ah: he's was ta ught life's a fight

(Arpège)

Bang bang they shot him down he's dead

Couplet 4

I know that's a real a shame but this is how the story ends

It's a beautiful world we do live in so his fate is in your hands, And I say

Ah ah: press 1 if you want him out

Ah ah: press 2 and his back again

Refrain
