Take the Fall

Second single. A tongue-in-cheek send-off to everyone who ever expected you to carry their weight and take the blame when it all fell apart.

Recorded live in Belgrade with producer Oliver Jovanović. No pitch correction. No click track. No overdubs. Five musicians in a room — what you hear is what happened.

Uroš Jojić — vocals, harmonica
Ognjen Ninković — electric guitar
Nemanja Cvijović — bass
Stanislav Stojkanović — drums

Written by Uroš Jojić
Produced by Oliver Jovanović

Lyrics

Walking down the lonely road,
Each stumble cuts your wounded soul.
Dust your boots off, my old friend,
And come with me 'til the end, to see,

The losers, the whiners, the preachers and their prophets,
All the boozers, the liars, the cheaters, and the honest,
All the screamers, the talkers, the angry and the modest,
All the braggers, the fainters, the leaders, and their puppets —
Fuck you all! I'm not gonna take the fall. No, I won't!

It's the ole' familiar winding road,
The only road you've ever known —
For when that day comes and the curtains close,
You face the maker and pay your toll to,

All the losers, the whiners, the preachers and their prophets,
All the boozers, the liars, the cheaters, and the honest,
All the screamers, the talkers, the angry and the modest,
All the braggers, the fainters, the leaders, and their puppets —
Fuck you all! I'm not gonna take the fall. No, I won't!

Welcome to this road's dead end,
It's a hard one to face, my friend.
You look around and no one's there,
They've moved on and just don't care.

All the losers, the whiners, the preachers and their prophets,
All the boozers, the liars, the cheaters, and the honest,
All the screamers, the talkers, the angry and the modest,
All the braggers, the fainters, the leaders, and their puppets.

All the losers, the whiners, the preachers and their prophets,
All the boozers, the liars, the cheaters, and the honest,
All the screamers, the talkers, the angry and the modest,
All the braggers, the fainters, the leaders, and their puppets —
Fuck you all! Not gonna take the fall. No I won’t.
