It's not a crime if you don't get caught A marriage made in the emergency ward I'd rather ride the roller coaster Than the merry go round My brain conspires against me A self fulfilling prophecy I'd rather eat peaches Than taste that golden brown No one that you can rely on Long ago I gave up tryin' No one on whom you can depend And I got a home I gotta defend (Here we go again) It's getting harder to relate It's such a b**h to just stay grounded Please tell me that it's not too late That my fears are all unfounded It's a steady downhill slide And the screws are turning tighter And you never will unwind Your complexion's turning whiter Quick fix You reap what you sow... and I oughta know Quick fix Liquid courage and powerdered panache Stolen light late night gate crash Long heedless of the pipes and needles Scattered on the ground It's too late for apologies
There's no respect - no boundaries Barricade the building Burn the projects down No one that you can rely on Long ago I have up tryin' No one on whom you can depend And I got a head I gotta defend (Here we go again) It's getting harder to relate It's such a b**h to just stay grounded Please tell me that it's not too late That my fears are all unfounded It's a steady downhill slide And the noose is getting tighter And you never will unwind Your complexion's turning whiter Quick fix You reap what you sow... And I oughta know Quick fix Perfect victim sitting duck They're in the playground waiting I can hear their stereos I can see their who*es fellating Pull the covers 'round your head They're waiting at your door Better load your .44 This is civil war You better load your .44 This is civil war Quick fix
