Back to ‘Rescue Me’…

The opening song for the show is called “C’mon, C’mon”
by the Von Bondies. Personally I am not familiar with this group at all,
however I love this song!

I’m not sure if it was specifically written for the show, i.e. about firefighters,
but as I read the words today it occurred to me it could have easily
been written for the prostate cancer brotherhood.

Find the song. Download the song! It’s a real rocker!

“C’mon C’mon”
Von Bondies
(The theme song for “Rescue Me”)
On another day c’mon c’mon
With these ropes tied tight can we do no wrong
Now we grieve ’cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth bite down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve ’cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say? (c’mon c’mon)
Was it right to leave? (c’mon c’mon)
Will I ever learn? (c’mon c’mon)
(c’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon)

As I make my way c’mon c’mon
Through these battered nights that seem too long
Now we grieve ’cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

With my teeth bite down I can see the blood
Of a thousand men who have come and gone
Now we grieve ’cause now it’s gone
Things were good when we were young

Is it safe to say? (c’mon c’mon)
Was it right to leave? (c’mon c’mon)
Will I never learn? (c’mon c’mon)
(c’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon)

Is it safe to say? (c’mon c’mon)
Was it right to leave? (c’mon c’mon)
Will I never learn? (c’mon c’mon)
(c’mon c’mon c’mon c’mon)

And on this day these deepened wounds don’t heal so fast
Can’t hear me croon of a million lies that speak no truths
Of a time gone by that now is through
