The Adored - Hold Up! lyrics

She was a smart, polished girl from the capital With Hollywood dreams and a credit card Holiday for the summer, off from Catholic school And she wanted to hang with the boys He was just another boy from Eagle Rock It was a backyard party, around one o'clock By the keg, touched her leg, blood started to pump She started seeing two of the boy She said "Whoa, whoa..." Found herself in an empty room "About time I tried something new!" He said "Hold up!" hit speed dial #2 "I know just what you need to do!" It was pedal to the metal on a dead-end street Put the flame to the rock, making Mary weep Week one was kinda fun, 'til the shakes had come So they hid from the sun in the day Pawned fifteen dollars so they don't get sick Just a young runaway turning tricks for pimps And she's looking rough, but you know what they say: "We got a monkey to feed!" He said "Oh, gotta go score big cash for us Trick change won't keep us up!" She said "No, no" He said "Oh, hold up Art dealer across the street He's no match for my gun and me" Police came fast cause our girl gave them a buzz She said "My man needs help!" but they quickly shot the kid up That poor boy got ruined Now she's all alone and can't visit her man in jail 'Cause he's doing his time under the ground in Glendale 'Cause he's dead - there's no time for details It was a hold up, a simple hold up
