A Life of Crime

Being kept after hours behind closed doors You get reprimanded for bad behavior And you ain't got no choice but to wait the time Meanwhile you contemplate the idea of escape Chorus: Detention - detention - detention Well I can't wait any longer You won't receive any sympathy From those around you 'cuz you're in too deep So it's up to you to make your move When his back is turned you fly out that door Chorus So the chase begins down the corridor Up and down the stairs you're runnin' everywhere And there's no way out when you've been confined To an institution where they play with your mind Detention (4x) yaaaaa! You ain't got no choice but to surrender! Detention (8x)

They've blown you out of house and home You turn around you're all alone Visions creep into your head You think about the life you've led You started out a small time hood Stealin' cars your life is good Then night flights to the southeast bay You ice six men along the way Chorus: Seeking asylum from the D.E.A. It's a man made nightmare and I'm seeking asylum Bodyguards became your scene Limousines and fashion queens All night self indulgent party scenes Protection paid keeps your name clean You wake today just to find Ten million drop somehow went wrong Your house was bombed your men all dead Nothing left alive inside Chorus Take your next step it will be your last You never thought your time would come Just as you're wondering how you'll die Bullets slam into your eyes You stumble back your knees give way You die alone it's one way down Violence and force power and greed It's all in life you've ever known Chorus

Escort take your time to crawl into a life so low Slut you're still the same but you work too hard to take no blame And we all know you'll never change So why don't you just play the game Chorus: Don't try to think up some excuse or try to recreate the truth Loser it's your bad life story. Loser what are you gonna do Loser you take scum for glory but in the end the slut gets you Playing top man all the time while in real life you fall behind And in your mind you know the story no one tells you what to do And you don't take shit from nobody Wasting time doin lines, wasting money Chorus Safety sex means you can come if you're using condoms all the time You think you've got the answers to all the questions But behind that face is an empty mind And we all know that life's a game and sluts are worthless weak and lame Chorus

Oh say can you see spacecraft exploding in the air By the early morning light seven families in despair Watching their sons and daughters burning in the sky Remnants plunge into the water but they already died What so proudly we hail we thought they had all the brains But in front of all the world we've been put to shame In the sky no one left alive The fault is yours and you can't deny their good luck passed them by Whose broad stripes and bright stars led a perilous flight That ended in disaster panic and frustration You need another seven spacemen willing to take a chance And dumb enough to trust you when you say all systems go Rockets red glare bursting in air we thought they had all the brains But N.A.S.A. proved otherwise that day in the sky No one left alive died in the sky The fault is yours and you can't deny their good luck passed them by You know exactly why they're all dead They couldn't survive. The fault was yours and you know just why They're all dead Now you got another seven astronauts dead Their good luck had passed 'em by now they're dead Another seven astronauts dead

I'll take this chance to release all the grief pent up inside of me Got nothing to say who will listen anyway It's all the same to me so I'll just shout and scream Chorus: Unbridled energy pent up inside me (2x) If you don't think that this makes any sense (Why do you) continue to abuse the people that're your friends Gotta find your way to let it out It's better than seeing a shrink who'll only sit and watch you pout Chorus So what's my problem I really ain't got one It's just that I'm so sick and tired of how things are done So why not scream to get it out of me Or get drunk at "Cary's" with Steve Nagy Chorus

In an abandoned warehouse late at night in the shipping yards The gangsters keep a watchful eye for the man in blue As a loaded semi pulls up to an empty dock The rear door opens to reveal the demon alcohol Chorus: Restriction drinking's against the law Prohibition the demon alcohol A heavy profit's to be turned on this mountain dew But if you're caught you might get killed or thrown in jail But what's the fuss it's soon to be legal anyway So you may as well go with the flow of things to come Chorus What you see is what you get on a one shot deal So make it now and worry later about the end result When the loaded semi pulls up to the empty dock You'll get another week's supply of alcohol Chorus

You can't tell how thick your shell can get when you abide By a lifestyle that ain't worthwhile But you continue what you're doing On the hot sheet, at the right time, you get eaten by the hungry hand Good examples, so you say, is what you're making out of everyone Chorus: Work all day, you think all night, ain't gonna sign away my life And there ain't no one as dumb as you, the company man Hammer and chisel insight on you I see if you're all there But you're long gone just a shambles of what could have been real And you tell me that it's my fault when I come short of pleasing you At the same time I can tell you that you'll end up in a ball and chain Chorus Look here no mind, who laughs last laughs best The company man takes from anyone's hand and he don't give a damn The company man takes from anyone's hand just to get where he can The company man he won't start seeing until he stops believing The company man That a nine to five is all you need to be alive The company man you think you're alive but your brain has done died

I'm not what I seem to be life to me's no mystery Those like me will rot in jail longer than their life will be Chorus: My hand's in your pocket I'm taking what's yours What I eat, my survival all depends on what I steal When you turn your back I'll steal your money stolen money buys my meals Chorus I'll steal your money too Master of deceptive fables criminal insanity It always beats real work time, wages, income earned. I live like kings If the suckers ever catch me it's for sure that I would die Chorus I'll pick your pocket too

Temperatures exceeding hot both land and people start to rot Can't provide for themselves because resources are so nil I sympathize it's enough to make me cry When we got so much and they have none and they ain't got no place to run Chorus: This makes it hard to, down there it's hard to survive Situation's out of hand starvation all across the land U.S. aid can only do part of what needs to be done So the story goes on and on how long who knows? Salvation is the only thing that matters to these human beings Chorus Emaciated little kids don't know what happy childhood is Living through a ten year drought is more than simply doing without Chorus Temperatures exceeding hot both land and people start to rot Can't provide for themselves because resources are so nil Chorus
