TIME BOMB
If you wanna make the move then you better come in
it's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
living and dying and the stories that are true
the secrets to a good life is knowing when you're through
Black coat, white shoes, clack hat and cadillac
Yeh, the boy's a time bomb
he's back in the hole where they got him living
like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives
like a cat take him to the youth authority home
first thing you learn is that you got to make it in this world alone
now he's gotten out he's gotten free he's gotta go gotta car
he's runnin' what're you doin' runnin' numbers from the bar
his pager's beepin' he's got in deep in
what ever he can move on in you know that kid's a creepin' in
tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below his eye
his mother cries she knows that he is strong enough to die
he's rollin' in the Cadillac it's midnight sunroof is down
three shots rung out the herd's deal the new king is crowned.
