It was middle of the summer when the police shot him Stagger Lee reincarnate is what the cops called him A trembling head with big ideas which killed his wife and her man Stagger Lee in the flesh in Southern California He hit a rock going 90 in the desert Had a blowout and was forced to pull over Grabbed the Colt and put the barrel to his head In the midst of all the sirens from the cop cars Were the quiet muffled beats from his wifes heart The last time she had kissed him when she left him for you
now he knows what you shouldn't know It never starts, it never ends, no He thinks aloud, Ive waited my whole damn life to turn my whole damn life around. If this is it, well theyve got a fight. Im taking every last one of them fuckers down.
Stagger Lee quickly opens up his car door Sticks his left hand out, waving in surrender He hides a smile and death wish with a fully loaded gun Seven cops with their fingers on the triggers Sweaty palms, grinding teeth, and foggy aviators Stagger Lee pulls the hammer back and dives into sun
He hits the ground with a barrel roll He unloads his clip Three cops hit the ground The other four greet Stagger with his death
Im so thankful Im so grateful You afforded me to be born again Another chance to make you my lover Ill make it right this time next life Since you shot me Since you killed me Ill haunt you in between And Ill possess your wife and kids Ill make it so you cant forget Ill be coming back for her again, in fleshTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
