Assassin Lyrics
Written by: Das, Pandit, Savale, Tailor, ZamanMohammed Singh AzadSindabad !No apologiesNot a shot in the darkThis is a warningThe sleeping tiger awakes each and every morningThe time is now right to burst the imperial bubbleAnd my act of revenge is just a part of the struggleA bullet to his head won't bring back the deadBut it will lift the spirits of my peopleWe'll keep on fightingWe've been a nation abusedYour stiff upper lip will bleedAnd your pride will bruisedNo apologiesNot a shot in the darkThis is a warningThe sleeping tiger awakes stretching each and every morningThe time is now right to burst the imperial bubbleAnd my act of revenge is just a part of the struggleSynchronise timeVengeance will be mineAs I cross the curzon line into his mindInto his home I will burn the trophies he ownsSymbols of a future postponedMohammed Singh AzadSindabadA bullet to his head wont't bring back the deadBut it will lift the spirits of my peopleA bullet to his head won't bring back the deadBut it will lift the spirits of my peopleI'll shake hands with the hang manI'll wear the noose with prideFor unlike the British I've no crimes to justifyPentonville will be my last place on earthAnd then death will return me to the land of my birth.
