Deep down in the city 'neath the concrete trees
|
Some signifying hack is scratching backs for fleas
|
Putting on their bad mouths for poor little me
|
Spreading ugly lies like it's some horrible disease
|
|
He said that I said what I never did said
|
But I said that it's rare that it's over your head
|
Ask me a question, then print a lie
|
I cancelled all appointments having vowed that he will die
|
|
So I went to find the source of this malitious dirt
|
Having reread the words and wiped the blood from my shirt
|
When I found him he was sitting high up in a tree
|
With one bloody finger on a typewriter key
|
|
Sky is gray and the grass unseen
|
And you're the dumbest **** this city's ever seen
|
He was laughing, shaking, high up in a tree
|
But then he lost his balance and he fell down on his knees
|
|
So I leapt on that mother my anger to appease
|
When I grabbed him by the throat, he said "Oh spare me please"
|
Sure as gullible as my name I let him go back to the trees
|
And straight away the poisons flowing freely from the keys
|
|
The sky is grey and the grass unseen
|
And he's still the dumbest **** this concrete jungle's ever seen
|
That mother he was laughing, bathing in the heat
|
But then he slipped again and landed in the street
|
|
Deep down in the city 'neath the concrete trees
|
Nobody's seen that mother high in the fleas
|
But there's a new one in the obituaries
|
And it shows four stars where the name oughta be
|
