LA Blues Songtext

(Martini!)

Grease from the cast iron jumped up and bit me
Spilling my beer, there goes a buck fifty
Dripped down on Johnny while he′s cleaning his guns
And he's talking about Nam and tall girls he calls up
White boy Joe, still fighting for Dixie
Spitting his dip out an F150, whoo!
Goes Dimitri who just made bail
And now he′s plottin' revenge on the snitch who telled

And if you don't like it, you can fuck right off
Them boys in blue don′t come around on this block, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh
Streets and seas stay winding, they don′t stop
High likelihood your ass is gonna get dropped, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh


Shawna and Shawn scamming tourists for pennies
With flavorless jello in dumpstered dixies
Muscle reek stench out of bird bars
Kicking out the blood boys from the upstairs part
Old man Jerome jiggles out oxytocin
Stepping over waste from his neighbor's dope sick
Whoo!, goes Dimitri
As he shot that man down, and he pissed on the body
And spent the night on the town

And if you don′t like it, you can fuck right off
Them boys in blue don't come around on this block, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh
Streets and seas stay winding, they don′t stop
High likelihood your ass is gonna get dropped, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh

My love for you was thick as roux
You used to be a comfort food and just like that
Flour and fat transform to something new
I thought I'd always have you
Oh, I′m sorry bout it, we're through, boo-hoo
Well, I guess I'll sell the truck
Then scrapin′ the bike for parts
Yeah, life goes on after a broken heart
Man, as long as I have you
Oh, my friends ride real smooth

And if you don′t like it, you can fuck right off
Them boys in blue don't come around on this block, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh
Streets and seas stay winding, they don′t stop
High likelihood your ass is gonna get dropped, ha-ha-ha-ha-oh


But if we get by, day to day
Taking it slowly and feeling all of the pain
Do we really get stronger? Or just stay the same
Oh, I have to believe, I have to believe that things will change
But if we get by, day to day
Taking it slowly and feeling all of the pain
Do we really get stronger? Or do we stay the same
Oh, I have to believe, I have to believe that things will change
But, why god?, why?, why?
Now, why would you take them from me that way?

Why?, why?
Now, why would you take them from me that way?
I don't ask for nothing, I know I′ve grown cold
Yeah, I'm a hypocrite, I-I′ve never known home
I don't ask for nothing, I steal what I owe
Yeah, I'm a hypocrite, I-I′ve never known home
But, why god?, why?, why?
Why would you take them from me that way?
Why god?, why?, why?
Why would you take them from that way

You′ll never know how much you meant to me friend
You'll never know how much you meant to me back then, uh

The end of the world is just a destination
The end of the world is just a destination
The end of the world is just a destination
The end of the world is just a destination
The end of the world is just a destination
I had to grow to love
Yes, and now I know I′m not unworthy of–
Love
