[Intro: Double Indemnity] Nothing had slipped, nothing had been overlooked There was nothing to give us away And yet, Keyes, as I was walking down the street to the d**tore Suddenly, it came over me that everything would go wrong It sounds crazy Keyes, but it's true, so help me I couldn't hear my own footsteps It was the walk of a dead man [Verse I: GhostOfAnEgo] Jax Dawn, a silent pawn A P.D. people don't see me But I see them, see when Perverted guys believe averted eyes Are present Their presence reveals true essence A two step melody, old Joe Will remember me Played piano way back to gain Cash back before my soul Surrendered my to Hennessy Heaven's deeds are empty Left me in a tavern of gents Sad turn of events Sitting on a sixth cup I drink the stuff [Intermission II: Gun Crazy] Shooting's what I'm good at It's the only thing I like I don't why, but I feel good when I'm shooting I feel awfully good inside Like I'm somebody [Verse II: GhostOfAnEgo] Long legged dame came in Blaming the new fast pace Of shifty eyes from these sh**ty guys on her New face in this place Women don't wander in So I'm wondering when They began to let them in I asked Joe but he basked A red glow Didn't let me in on that secret Instead screamed beat it Can ya believe it? Swift kick to the behind I receive it Lifts and shifts my sh** in a quick pitch Through the back door Won't be back there no more I hear twenty blasts and windows smashed T.V. says the crime seemed random Not in tandem with mob violence I ain't buying it Skip from two-bit joint To two-bit joint No point Nobody snitched Somebody's itching to ditch the evidence It's evident I send this prick to investigate it Blade is neck deep Kept speechless No longer fearless I'm a near mess Dear Tess, I cry Over a picture frame A fixture of blame Anniversary gift in the nursery lift Spliff drifts a spark, a burn to the heart Engulfing flames, coughing in vvain Two coffins, the same day Sit drinking it away I still miss you But I don't wanna be with you I get to survive, don't I? Matching twin barrels Masking sin's arrows El fin narrows The door burst down A tour of shuttering rounds Huddling down I trig a clip Leaking it Speaking it loud and proud Surround sound, bullets rebound I hound, hit in the hip Firefight No leaving it These f**ers are grieving it Believe it Lit two to the face Dudes head blew and fell dead in place World's a deadly place I'm worldly warring a war on the human race Chamber's empty Is this the end of me? Gun tip to my head Enemy gripping the lead Thinking I ought to be safely in bed But she saves my knave from an early grave [Intermission III: Who Framed Roger Rabbit] I'm not bad I'm just drawn that way [Verse III: GhostOfAnEgo] Tending to my leg led To a tenderness in bed Red fiery hair I'm trapped in her ensnare Stare straight as she Tells me something heavy Dear conscious, help me Is there no kindness? Tell me Well she told me An old story She stood rigid Not to give it away Good riddance as they say Her hand slammed the damn kablam Under the table Barely stable she limped out But didn't chicken out Sick in the mouth *throw up* Spitting it out But sticking it out Sticked the boss that I crossed who sent those dead croons To goon me See she overheard my d**h orientation Disturbed the presentation Giving the present situation My mind contemplating If she's generating a storyboard for me She told me she overheard I must've misheard Where? His lair She swears she'll take me there Through town's square A right and a left Left us right at The clown's lair Old Moe's So no clowning there Fist hit my upper lip before I could utter sh** Bye bye sky I shake awake With tape laced around my legs and arms I'm not letting on that d**h's dawn is coming on My stomach's all in knots Like the rope wrapped, packaged spots Dammit cops The sirens stop the silence Footprints to the door Talk for four minutes then talk for four more Whole thing's a bore Soon the goons, faking d**h Take my breath They untie my lady luck Who really jsut gave me up What the f**? Shut up The boss comes in talking Doesn't like me walking In on his plans Well I'm not his biggest fan either I need a breather You wouldn't believe her Next, she pecks the boss Tosses a smile at me adoringly The boss nods as a god Gives his final decision To be executed with his permission [Intermission VI: The k**ers] There's nothing I can do about it There's nothing I can do about it There's nothing I can do about it [Verse VI: GhostOfAnEgo] I'm fishing for a reason to be let go A reason I don't know Go fish She slips a nine in my sleeve She and the boss leave It slip into my grip I fancy it A fancy hit Bullet ricochet slays Two heads of my slayers with a lead layer Time to pursue the main player But I abstain, I waver What do I owe my saver? Why not just go blow paper? A corner suitcase of cash suits The horror last experienced My mind's not hearing it Tears into a fit Fancies fairy tales Like I'm the white knight Do the past right Go save a life My wife and baby girl My whole world whirlwind Away in a firestorm Second fire born I borne new firestorm Storm into his office building And off his villains Henchmen sent to heaven Atmosphere is deadly A medley of guilt and shame Humans weren't meant to contain blame The boss, her, and me Hurriedly, she robs my last will She robs my last k** They both lay dead Barrels of red Barely redeemed What does this all mean? [Outro V: Shadows of a Doubt] The world's a hell What does it matter what happens in it?
