Mike Pinto - Addictions lyrics
[Mike Pinto - Addictions lyrics]
Money always running thin
He never thinks to save a dime
And when he's good up for
He'll rob the closest liquor store
If he don't get caught
Well then it ain't no crime!
It ain't no crime
Well Sammy moved to Reno with his
Best friend Tino who only
Says his prayers in the best of
Casinos but sam was down on his luck
He took Tino's truck a case of grand theft
Auto in the case of Nevada
That's for sure there
Ain't no cuuuuure, he'll do it again
Like he's done it before
Well everybody's got their addictions
And if you listen hard you'll see: That
Everyone who lives
Beneath the sun discovers something
That they need
Now we all have our different problems
But there
Are those who still pretend that it's okay
But to each of them I say: Well nah
You better think again
And it goes
Danny works a nine-to-five
Wears a fancy suit and tie
But the only thing that keeps
Him sane is the comfort
Of the local bar, he thinks of last call
Just one more drink to numb the paaaiin
Oooh, we all got pain
He's got himself a ball-and-chain
Who smokes a pack a day
Since she was nearly age 13 a
Nicotine fiend if you know what i mean
Now she's yellin' at the kids
For smokin' all that weed
Well don't get angry, don't
You use brute force, i know
My stories almost set the
Trial off course but, i don't
Lie, and I don't mean to sound dramatic
But my my sound's fuckin' hotter than your
Upstaiors attic there's
A will, there's a way
For the people of today livin'
A lifetime on the bottom of
A cruel society stay strong
And know right from wrong back
To the riff that goes
Sammy planned his get away
And he was on his way to
Tijuana, Mexico his luck, he thought
Was on his side as he drove Tino's ride
But little did he know
That drunk drivin' with one
Eye closed was Danny
Comin' the other way on a
Dogged-up road he hit
The breaks, it was way too late
And the collision killed them both
Well Danny leaves his wife a widow
Dressed in black
And Sammy leaves his life for
Trying to gamble in stacks sad but true
Oh what are you gonna do when
It's way too late for turning back?
Well everybody's got their addictions
And if you listen hard you'll see: That
Everyone who lives
Beneath the sun discovers something
That they need
Now we all have our different problems
But there are those who still pretend
That nothing's wrong
But, if you wait too long
It'll kill you in the end
OooO-o-o-oO-o-o ohh
