lyrics

In the day when you eat what you kill.
Long way baby, roll with the wheel until you need not feel.
No, you need not feel.

From the bathroom floor I rise to inhabit everything to despise in a young man’s eyes.

Women and children must obey me. I never lend because you won’t repay me. No one will. My wife won’t lay me so now I’m at the mall with a doe eyed baby.

In the deed of every home I own is a legitimate claim to the throne. Every hour on the phone… Every stone I’ve thrown…

At the head of every deal I’ve made… I’ve gone to bed with any woman I’ve paid. It’s an honest trade. You’re a girl self-made.

Have you ever seen a feel good movie? The bad guy wins or the good don’t move me. I don’t steal. I win daily. First class hotel, real bad scabies. Maggot in your one free meal.

Caffeine addict, Yankee fanatic, front row at Broadway shows.
Art collector, image protector, stranger to all I know.
Back seat driver, urban reviver, frightened of hell below ;)
Evil doer, false believer, with a yellow labrador retriever.

In the day when you eat what you kill.
Long road people are going to get killed but you need not feel.
No, you need not feel.

I’m not a friend so you can’t betray me. I’m not going to end yelling “Jesus, save me!” Not my deal. Fuck you, pay me. I flip town homes, bitch, don’t play me.

Lie, cheat, rob, eat, steal.
