| On the banks of the river where its rank make you shiver when you see what
|
| washes up another unidentified figure/ Go figure that n' slither back
|
| To where the hell that you came from then try to picture blacked out
|
| backgrounds Stackhouse burned down/ Turn ‘round
|
| Daddy needs a new pair of shoes and a new paramedic for this bruise scared
|
| pathetic from the news/ who’s that
|
| Looking in my mirror/ close your eyes, hold your breath and he won’t hear ya
|
| The dead take a few steps nearer to the animated afterlife
|
| They bled their sacrifice while alley cats
|
| Round up scraps of dead rats n' pass the dice; |
| disaster strikes
|
| Have a nice never no more/ tonight’s the night the light severs cold wars
|
| Like staletto’s so pure
|
| Rollin' with a stolen cart hold my cards heavy cause I know them sharks in the
|
| oceans dark
|
| Waiting for some fresh meat to pull apart
|
| Watching the souls depart from the old folks home to children on the boulevard
|
| nothing but new bones to scar/ Face down, get down they
|
| Race ‘round the playground like greyhounds how you keep ‘em safe and sound?
|
| The day drowns in bulletspray sounds/ Walking on needles, pins
|
| Syringe for the ego’s end/ you don’t need no friends/ I watch evil sins blend
|
| with the people’s trends/ The heat rolls in
|
| Ain’t a goddamn thing you can do about once it get in/ better make it your best
|
| friend
|
| You rock a shit-eating grin
|
| Now what’s so funny ‘bout a man that gotta choose between what’s right and
|
| money? |
| Go hug tight your honey/ up-right and grumpy
|
| Bloodtype is touchy nocturnal up nights avoid sunlight I’m hungry so I’m hunting
|
| One thing done lead to a big
|
| Brickwall fuck a pitfall how’m I gonna get stuck and sit stalled with nothing
|
| but a rickshaw
|
| Five wooden nickels in my tip jar
|
| They throw me change for banging on a guitar while rollin' by in big cars/ they
|
| must think that its hard/ But its no harder than
|
| Rats chasin' cheddar with go getter’s who know better n' roll clever go stroke
|
| the gold lever
|
| Might hit the jackpot but
|
| Most likely I’m a see you back on the blacktop thinking you never seen a
|
| sweeter thing than asphault/ That’s all fine
|
| If you don’t mind walking a line between visionary and blind man holding up
|
| signs
|
| That’s not the wind blowin' you down
|
| And out, you down the line/ you bound to find what they diggin' out down in the
|
| mines
|
| Come rain, come shine, come hell or highwater
|
| I think I oughta but they tell me why bother/ might find me when the tide wash
|
| up
|
| Can’t think straight
|
| Walk with a heavy heavy heart
|
| Broke with the same old spare parts |
