They crucify you when you get it wrong
When things are fine they put you ahead
They laugh at you with your trousers down
They pick the stones and aim them at your head
When you're alive they won't care what you said
What you deserve and all the blood you bled
It doesn't matter what you try to hide
The sun comes out and then the truth is read
Your fans'll love you when you're alive
But the wreaths are laid by the rest instead
When you're alive they won't care what you said
What you deserve and all the blood you bled
'Cos everybody loves you when you're dead
Kneel and pray by the side of your bed
And everybody loves you when you're dead
Kneel and pray just like your momma said
When you're alive they won't care what you said
What you deserve and all the blood you bled
You'll turn in your grave at what's gonna be said
You'll finally be appreciated
'Cos everybody loves you when you're dead
'Cos everybody loves you when you're dead
The Stranglers sono un gruppo musicale britannico formatosi a Guildford nel 1974. Il loro sound, inizialmente definibile come punk rock, ha subito influenze post-punk, new wave e progressive rock, creando un'identità sonora unica e riconoscibile. I membri fondatori erano Hugh Cornwell (chitarra, voce), Jet Black (batteria), Jean-Jacques Burnel (basso) e Hans Warmling (tastiere, chitarra). Quest'ultimo venne presto sostituito da Dave Greenfield, che rimase con il gruppo fino alla sua morte nel 2020. I The Stranglers hanno raggiunto un grande successo negli anni '70 e '80 con brani come "Golden Brown", "Always the Sun" e "No More Heroes". Sono noti per le loro performance dal vivo energiche e i testi spesso provocatori e ironici. La band ha pubblicato oltre 15 album in studio, consolidando la propria posizione di gruppo culto nel panorama musicale britannico.
