Franky Perez - The Level lyrics

When I was on the level My sneakers never touched the street When I was on the level My clothes were always fresh and clean All the horny devils Begging for a pitchforking Now I ain't on the level And now the little angels said to hell with me Yes I got caught up in the thrill of it all With tyre tread on my feet Cos I was on the level Then the level came level to me When I was on the level I carved my name in the stalls of the nicest places But down at the pawn shop We on a first name basis Got blood on my feathers I've been eating crow all my life So don't send no [?] to do no man's job And don't send no chicken into no co*k fight Cos I wrote God a Dear John letter Said this ain't working out Cos I was on the level And you were nowhere to be found Take it to the bridge then! When the level breaks What sound will it make Will it go boom or pow? When the level breaks What sound will it make Will it be silent or loud? When the level breaks The sound that it makes will let you know why But you know how how how how When I was on the level I was a lion among men But now I look around the level And all I see are stray cats in a circus tent Before I swallow this shotgun muzzle And while I still got skin on my knees I'm getting on the level Before the level levels me
