Short Sighted Violence

GOOD EVENING LADIES..

GENTLEMEN TOO

IM GONNA TELL YOU A QUICK STORY

SO ERM, YEAH, SIT BACK

LET ME TAKE YOU THERE

I REMEMBER

SEEING YOU AT THE CAR WASH

YOU WAS WITH YOUR FATHER

I WAS WITH MY BROTHER

I HAD TO SAY SOMETHING

BUT YOU DIDNT NOTICE ME

BABY, SEE YOU AROUND. [X2]

I SAW YOU THROUGH MY SUNGLASSES

AND IM SHORT SIGHTED

NOT A VERY GREAT ADVANTAGE TO START WITH

YOU WAS WITH YOUR DAD AND THAT WAS EASY TO TELL

I COULD OVERHEAR HIM SAYING

"NO YOU COME HOME AT 12'

I WANTED TO KNOW YOU

WANTED TO SHOW YOU

YOUR FAVOURITE THINGS IN THE WORLD IN SLOW MOTION

HOLD ON

WE AINT EVEN SPOKEN THOUGH

BUT THIS ENERGY GOT ME SO FROZEN THOUGH

LIFE QUESTIONER

YOU BLESSED AS FUCK

YOUR HEAD WILL TURN

SOON AS YOUR FATHER DRIVES OFF AND IT DID

I KNOW THAT YOU FELT IT TOO

NOW YOU A QUARTER OF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD

IN A BLACK FORD ESCORT

WINDOWS CLOSED

STROLLING HOME

STOPPED AT THE BETTING SHOP AT THE END OF THE ROAD

2 BETS ON THE ROULETTE

HEAD SPINNING LIKE THAT BOWL

ROUND & ROUND DONT FEEL RIGHT

I STEPPED OUT

HEADPHONES TANGLED

ARMS ACHING FROM THE DUMBBELLS

I HEARD A TYRE SCREECH

*BANG BANG*

AND A SCREAM

SOUNDS LIKE FIREWORK NIGHT

BUT ITS AUGUST 15

I LOOKED AROUND TO WHERE THE SOUND WAS COMING FROM

COULDNT BELIEVE

SAW THAT CAR COVERED IN BLOOD

AND SIX BULLETS THROUGH THE SCREEN

RUSHED OVER

HER FATHER SLUMPED LIKE A DEAD FLOWER

LOOK UP IN HER EYES LOOKS LIKE

SHE THANKFUL THAT IT HAPPENED

I SAID WHAT THE FUCK?

SHE SAID "YES IM FREE AT LAST!"

"THATS A PIMP NAMED RICK WITH PLENTY ENEMIES HE CAPTURED ME!"

IM THINKING HARD

BLINKING FAST

SHE SAID LOOK AT ME

POLICE CARS PULLED UP AT EITHER SIDE OF US ON THE STREET

I HEARD HER SPEAK

SHE SAID "NEXT TIME TAKE THE SHADES OFF PLEASE, I WAS STARING AT YOUR FACE SAYING RESCUE ME"
