Street Hassle

Hey, that cunt’s not breathing\nI think she had too much of something or other\nHey, man, you know what I mean\nI don’t mean to scare you\nBut you’re the one who came here\nAnd you’re the one who’s gotta take her when you leave\nI’m not being smart or trying to be pulling my part\nAnd I’m not gonna wear my heart on my sleeve\nBut you know people get emotional\nAnd sometimes they just don’t act rational\nThey think they’re just on tv — sha la la la, man\nWhy don’t you just slip her away\nYou know. I’m glad that we met man\nIt was really nice talking\nAnd I really wish there was a little more time to speak\nBut you know it could be a hassle\nTrying to explain myself to a police officer\nAbout how it was that your old lady got herself stiffed\nAnd it’s not like we could help\nBut there’s nothing no one could do And if there was, man, you know I would have been the first\nOnly, someone turns that blue\nWell, it’s a universal truth\nAnd you just know: That bitch will never fuck again\nBy the way, that’s really some bad shit\nThat you came to our place with\nBut you ought be more careful round the little girls\nIt’s either the best or it’s the worst\nSince I don’t have to choose, I guess I won’t\nAnd I know, This is no way to treat a guest\nBut why don’t you grab your old lady by the feet\nAnd just lay her out in the darkest street\nAnd by morning, she’s just another hit and run\nYou know, some people got no choice\nAnd they can never even find a voice\nTo talk with that they can even call their own\nSo the first thing, that they see\nThat allows them the right to be Why, they follow it You know, it’s called bad luck
