Gimme, gimme, gimme
|
Remember me? 'Member me?
|
|
This old man, he plays one on one
|
He was your cool whip master, you were his B.C. son
|
This old man
|
He's got the smell of sin
|
He's got the nature of sin
|
He was your actual, factual old sin nature
|
Mother praying, 'Jesus save the boy,
|
Save him from the old man.'
|
Got away
|
Glory, Glory
|
|
Up from the water, out of the grave
|
Wearing a new man's clothes
|
The old man's dragging the lake again lately
|
What does he want?
|
Mama, you don't suppose...
|
|
This old man, he don't mind the gap
|
He's like a subway rat
|
He's crawling out of your past
|
Out of the dark
|
Little land shark
|
Little predator scavenger
|
Serving up sucker punch
|
Flyweight, gonna eat your lunch
|
|
This old man, he's flicking on the brights
|
He's wanting squatter's rights
|
He's gotta have his space in your face
|
Get you reminsicing for the very years you wasted
|
Every bitter fruit you tasted
|
Gonna snare you in a stare-down
|
Better to choke than breathe in your curse
|
This old man, this old man
|
Better to crawl than to ride in your hearse
|
|
This old man, he plays seek and destroy
|
He comes robbing my joy
|
He's here spreading the rot
|
Old man, don't you get it?
|
What I've got's as good as gold
|
Good as gold
|
