1999

It goes one, two, now this gumshoe’s comin' for you
Three, four, with more than the lord to speak for
Five, six, I’m gonna walk this beat until I drop my drumsticks
I spun 78's, 45's, and 33's since '99
There’s nine ten-foot poles
A needle wants to touch me
My feet get cold, I speak soft
Until they cut me free, I get out of this world
Of one window flaps and spins out of control
Gold and silver
It don’t warm my soul, so cold eyes shiver
So I try to aim my bow and quiver
Pull the arrow back, but it won’t deliver
And it’s frozen, like this hopeless liver
Slash romantic — will you hold this picture?
And shake it, out of habit
I ain’t an addict, man.
I just gotta have it
So gimme, gimme gumdrops and one shot
Of whatever you got, inside this gunshot
And give up control to the confused
99 problems, bitchin' ain’t one
I’ve learned over the years how to imitate runnin'
A tight ship for you
So come here, let me bite that lip for you
Okay, you can have your cake
But you can’t touch the icing
You gotta hush the lightning
Motherfucking jailbirds like to sing, like:
If that diamond rings your neck
You’ve got no one else to blame
Just your love for respect
Where respect ain’t due
Protect your neck from the fangs you drew
True blue-collar blood with
You love it, you need it, but that love ain’t true
Your colors are shinin' through
And there as yellow as the sun that’s blindin' you
(Can you hear me? I think I lost you)
But I held on to your innocence
Since you got a heart that beats still
So just be still, come on out of the rain
Open your ears and listen
Now, some are out to win the big money
And some are just out to aim
And if all you see are triple sevens
That’s gonna go and cripple heaven for you
Now, if that diamond rings your neck
You’ve got no one else to blame
Just your love…
Now you’re passing the rock, and you’re passing the liquor
Attracted to gods or attracted to bleeding
That’s a delivery straight from your will
And it will kill, thrill, and haunt you
Caught you holding on to things that weren’t there
And you weren’t scared — there, there now
Hold down those demons
No rush, no rush, keep breathin'
