Sandpeople - Leave It Alone lyrics

We all werewolves
He must’ve been scared of werewolves
The way silver bullets lined the crib
With nothin’ but brew in the fridge
His diet consists of liquid dinner
Yo, I know I gotta be careful or
I’ma end up just like him
He lost his will to live
But not enough nuts to pull the trigger
Ya dig yourself deep into a personal hell
The only help comes from crackin’ a lid
Or actin’ as if the answer’s at
The bottom of a pint glass
Hopin’ time’ll pass like a
Blackout time lapse
Pеrhaps he thought no one would notice
Whеn he came drunk stumblin’ in
By a quarter a ten his hands would tremble
Dancin’ with the devil
Reachin’ for that bottle of gin
He couldn’t give a sober fuck


If he ever sobered up
And that’s when the problems begin
When your next of kin caught wind
You fell of the wagon
It was too late for prayin’
With the daughter on the line
Askin’ if her father died
Like, what I’m supposed to say?
I was chokin’ back the tears and
Y’all ain’t spoke in years
Sorry dear, you’re just too late
From girls to ladies, from boys to men
The fruit remains poisonous
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone
Now you can get down ‘til you can’t get up
The only choice you get
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone

Miss X she had a thing for love, except
She didn’t know what it was, a big mess
Was her life as a whole damsel in distress
God bless her soul what’s next?
She needs to release some stress
A little alcohol and
Methamphetamines, greens, a pills
A handful before bed and right
Before she gets dressed
To kill, high heels accent her best assets
She wants action for scratch to pay the bills
In that same fashion, she stops traffic
In those jeans with the ass-rip
Girl’s got skill and still, she didn’t know
Her mom bust the same block and stripper pole
Attracted to that visual
She fell victim to the same old trends
So when one life ends, another begins
From girls to ladies, from boys to men
The fruit remains poisonous
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone
Now you can get down ‘til you can’t get up
The only choice you get
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone

It’s time to call it quit's
It go from aids to X to loosie cigarettes
It’s time to call it quit's
When you’re ready to stop runnin’
Ready to stop frontin’
It’s time to call it quit's
Maintain, learn to overcome the
Heartaches and pain
I’ve been done with it way before they did it
I opened it, used it
Hopin’ you can grow to it

Two lost souls find themselves in
A world cryin’ help
Fast pace ‘round a belt on a
Race where the wheel spins (Round and round)
Same pursuit as Will Smith (Uh, huh)
Happiness is all these pills give
On the streets with no one to protect ‘em
Holdin’ each other’s broken pieces, conectin’
Two damaged psyches to form
Some kind of heaven, but when
Love didn’t provide solace, the heroin did
Unaware that they had conceived a victim
The unsuspectin’ mother-to-be refutes
The symptoms
Confusing morning sickness for a jones
She injects enough for both her and a
Baby she’s never met
But at that moment something changes inside
The basic instinct to save someone’s life
Her body couldn’t handle the dosage
She dropped to her knees
And prayed for God to take away her
Soul before her child could breathe
From girls to ladies, from boys to men
The fruit remains poisonous
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone
Now you can get down ‘til you can’t get up
The only choice you get
Even though they were told not to touch
It’s just too much
‘Cause they just won’t leave it alone
