Bad Place Alone

[Verse 1]

I'm a creature of the street

And I rip off all the money

I was kicked in the teeth

Shoved face first through a window

I got a gangland name

And a teardrop tattooed eye

They call me Little Caesar

In the brotherhood of crime

[Pre-Chorus]

I know about the pain

Dyin' in an alley with an air-conditioned brain

I know it's for real

Flatlined in an ambulance without a pulse to feel

[Chorus]

Hey blood brother, you're one of our own

You're as sharp as a razor and as hard as a stone

Hey blood brother, you're bad to the bone

You're a natural killer in a bad place alone

[Verse 2]

They call me Smoky Joe

And I'm as thin as a coroner's needle

I got a pocket full of rocks, man

I shake like a cold chihuahua

I got a runny nose

And a road map on my arm

[Pre-Chorus]

I blew my gig

Pokin' 'round the gallery with someone else's rig

I know, I understand

I watch my body hauled off by the local garbage man

[Chorus]

Hey blood brother, you're one of our own

You're as sharp as a razor and as hard as a stone

Hey blood brother, you're bad to the bone

You're a natural killer in a bad place alone

[Bridge]

We're cool, we're cold

We're stiff, we're tagged

We're slabbed, we're croaked

We're whacked, we're cracked

We're smoked and cured and slammed and slurred

And sliced and diced and put on ice

Cooked and stewed and badly brewed

And splattered once or twice

[Outro]

Hey blood brother, hey blood brother

Hey blood brother, hey, hey, hey

Hey blood brother, hey blood brother

Hey blood brother, hey, hey, hey

Look at us, nice and thin

Not a lot of fat on us, but not a lot of skin

We're alone, so are you

And maybe I'm the man, that's gonna close your baby blues

You're just a shadow of yourself, bag of bones

Nobody there to answer the phone

You're alone, bro!

You're all alone

You're all alone

You're alone
