Corey Taylor
Come What(ever) May (Live)
Let me see you put your fucking hands together
Can you understand what I am saying out there, Moscow?
Well, if not, then whoever can understand what I'm saying
Then I want you to explain this to the person next to you
Okay? Give me some fucking lights!
Yeah! Come on, I want everybody's fucking hands together
This next song is dedicated to George W. Bush
Come on, give it up
This is a song about real fucking freedom
Are you with me?
Let me see those fucking together, come on
We're gonna send a fucking message
To every motherfucker who wants to take away our fucking freedom
Are you ready?
Very good, then here we go
This is Come whatever may
Hey, hey, hey!
Moscow, here we go!
[Verse 1]
Can you take away every single day?
That we have given to another false prophet
Can you give us all a reason not to fall?
Before you take away another broken promise
Show your pretty face, hide the bitter taste
You're still the rapist of an entire nation
You want to be the man, you gotta be a man
But you were nothing but a sad insinuation
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?
[Verse]
Keep your fingers crossed, the truth is at a loss
Big decision for an ordinary coward
The only problem is your fucking rhetoric
We're more in danger than before you took power
Now it's just a game, God, you'll never change
You'd sell us out if you could only find a buyer
You don't give a shit as long as idiots
Are in your corner you could set us all on fire
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?
[Chorus]
You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
What the hell is free about it?
[Verse 3]
Now we reached the end, just get it over with
But this is building to an adamant conclusion
Come whatever may, there's going to be a day
When we have figured out a plausible solution
Everything you've done is killing everyone
A little smile on a homicidal bastard
You want to be a man, you gotta have a plan
Another failure is a guaranteed disaster
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how can we ever live this down?
How can we ever live this down?
[Chorus]
You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
You only wanted the world
You never wanted to be
They only wanted a parody
You want the world to be free
But what the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?
What the fuck is free about it?
Are you still with us out there, Moscow?
I've waited a long fucking time to play this song here in fucking Russia
If you know the words, if you know the words
I expect you to sing this as loud as you possibly can
Can you fucking do that, my friends?
I dedicate this to the friends and family here in Moscow
We will never forget this, we will never forget this
I promise you that
