nathan payne - over the 5 and far away lyrics

look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away

wash the bugs
out of your breath
how many legs
do you have left?
dry the tears
from your t++th
meet me downtown
underneath
the bridge over the freeway
sure i luvya baby
now get outta my way
i got my business taken care of
and i’m aware of
how i look
just cuz i got 2 strikes
don’t make me a crook
so i took a couple bucks
from that liquor store
and any car built since 1924
i can hotwire with a switchblade knife
who are you tellin’ me to get a life?
i could run a model train
down your arms and legs
good things come to those who beg
baby
good things come to those
who beg
so look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away

no matter what
i always get what i want
everything belongs to me
from the air you walk
to the ground you breathe
leave
this cursed town behind
you think you got problems, baby
get in line
i got my wheels spinning in the mud
this whole neighborhood is drenched in blood
i got vultures in my veins
bl++dy black flowers
in my brains
these rains ain’t never gonna stop
if we get separated
i’ll see you at the top
i copped a bad reputation
from a hooker on the skids
it ain’t what you never done
baby
it’s what you never did
and you know that i love you
but the last thing i need
around here is another arm to feed
so f you and your heroin
get your t++th out of my arm
talking to you
is like talking to a fire alarm
she says kinda quiet
as she’s taking off her clothes
we are all animals
in a world no one knows
we are all animals in a world no one knows
so look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away

valentines dripping from my jaws
i don’t need proof
i got probable cause
the prosecution hasn’t got a prayer
on the night in question
i was never even there
hey bailiff!
i’m thirsty!
bring me a beer!
just tell the court what you was doin’
when the money disappeared
well it ain’t the way i wanted it
but i’ll tellya how it went
i was getting loaded with your sister
smokin’ all her rent
cuz down here everybody’s holding
holding a lot more than a grudge
livin’ in oblivion
and sleeping in the sludge
judge i’m tryna tellya
i was just sitting in my car
when these 2 suspicious characters
walk out of a bar
one of ’em was bleeding
and the other one was wet
carrying a gun
and a makeshift tourniquet
you bet your bottom dollar, babe
you’re takin’ off your top
naw man
that dude drinks way too much
cum to be a cop
he’s been sneakin’ off to go tweekin’ with the deacon
of the puerto rican church
all we need’s a name
so we can start our search
well the street urchins
is lurchin’ baby
nurturing a buzz
i don’t give a f but i’ll give 20 bucks
to anyone who does!
so look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away

sl!ckin’ back my feathers
i’m sicker than a fiend
he probly thinks he’s being dangerous
think’s he’s being mean
that white boy cries so much
you’d think he’s giving birth
naw man
everybody’s worthless
when they’re coming back to earth
i used to be afraid of it
now i wear it on my sleeve
i absolutely hated it
now i hope it never leaves
i can’t believe what they done to you
you used to be so nice
yeah i already know i’m a f+up
you don’t need to tell me twice
just meet me on the corner
of hollywood & vile
if we get separated
i’ll see you at the trial
while yer up
get me a sandwich
and a prettier face
don’t give me that much
i only want a taste
methedrine, marijuana
heroin, and booze
i don’t know about you
but me i can’t refuse
do what you wanna do
i don’t wanna preach
just don’t come back to me
crying when you reach
the end of your rope
the end of your run
just cuz we ain’t happy don’t mean we ain’t havin’ fun
my baby may be pretty
but she sure as sh+t ain’t true
she said, i can con anyone
especially you
i can con anyone
especially you

so look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away

the hattenbacks are sleeping
where the freeway hits vermont
that kid he’s lucky
all he got was shot!
call a lawyer if you got one
call a preacher if you don’t
maria used to keep her mouth shut
but maybe now she won’t
i don’t remember anything
as usual i was drunk
walkin’ like an egyptian
and talkin’ like a punk
maria’s in koreatown
lookin’ for a thrill
you ever get your sh+t together
baby
tell me how it feels!
here’s the deal
i walk outta here
and no one makes a sound
i got enough ammunition
to buy everyone a round
i found out about this jewelry store
ain’t never been hit
i got no doubt we can take it
for an even split
the guards are all sedated
and the cops are sitting ducks
follow me if you wanna make
an easy million bucks
if they catch us, we’ll be famous
and if they don’t
we’ll be rich!
just don’t smile for the camera
and stop talkin’ like a b+tch
we’ll be back in an hour
at the most
2 or 3
tomorrow we’ll be drinking
margaritas by the sea
just keep the engine running
and take off that yellow coat
be careful who you f with
and be careful who you don’t
she just waves her hand
and says
baby nevermind
it ain’t what we’re leaving with us
it’s what we take behind

so look me up
if you’re still alive
over the 5
and far away
