Slaine - Mind Of A Criminal lyrics

Hey yo, ronnie was a wannabe gangster
And an ornery prankster he'd shank ya
Quicker than he'd thank ya
A crook and a thief always looking for beef
Gave em crookeder teeth
Than a hooker that's beat by a pimp
His environment was violent
Always getting high and shit
Grew up and now he's a man
With a dealer type
Always thinking how he could scam
He went back to thinking
Turned the music loud as he can
What the fuck, yo?
You need to go make a few bucks, bro?
At the pharmacy they're nothing
But sitting ducks
So call your man with the pistols
Run in and grab fistfuls
Of every pill they got and
They got a shitload


All you need is the oxy's, the O's silly man
Look at this little plan, it's brilliant
A renegade, eliminate the middle man
You can make like twenty grand
Off of these milligrams

This is the mind of a criminal
The criminal mind will find a way
To get money at any cost
This is the mind of a criminal
Go for the dough
You gamble and sacrifice your
Life for any loss
This is a mind of a criminal
Just evade cops
Never say stop because there's
Always a better day
This is a mind of a criminal
Under the influence
Convinced you'll never be caught but get away

So Ronnie got a tan sedan
Scoped the place out like
A motherfucking cameraman
With the panoramic lens
Him and his Bandit friend, Ken
Looking like he swallowed a can of fen-phen
Right before they did the job
His eyes bugging out and the kid was starved
For an o'connor
Ron knew him from his old corner
Their old colony but lived there no longer
Anyways, they've never been afraid
To be a renegade as long as they stayed
Getting high and getting paid
Like they're supposed to, Ronnie
Had the money, skinny Kenny with the toaster
Closer it's coming
His mind troubled him with the nine double MM
Tucked in his belt but fuck it he felt
Grabbed his balls, gun in his drawers
Opened up the door to run in the store

This is the mind of a criminal
The criminal mind will find a way
To get money at any cost
This is the mind of a criminal
Go for the dough
You gamble and sacrifice your
Life for any loss
This is a mind of a criminal
Just evade cops
Never say stop because there's
Always a better day
This is a mind of a criminal
Under the influence
Convinced you'll never be caught but get away

So there he was brandishing the gun
Demanding every one of the Oxycontin
From the foxy woman who's a pharmacist
Stay calm for this
Believe me, I don't really want
To have to harm you, bitch
This is a robbery
I know your knees are probably wobbly indeed
Oh you've never been stuck up?
Let me give some advice hurry the fuck up!
Give me the OC's
He pistol whipped her and gave
Her a nose bleed
Looking at her lab jacket Ron
Sees her clothes read janice, Janice panics
Looking at the handgun and the bandit
Wants him to scram so she hands him every
Fucking Oxy that they got in the place
Her nose is broke and she's scared that
She'll get shot in the face
Now she's coughing and bleeding
Whining and wheezing
Not believing she's getting robbed this
Time in the evening
It's the end of the night
Not a friend is in sight
Kenny's in the front making sure
The engine is right
Then they're gone without a trace
Criminal without a face
Chewing up an OC pill for the powder taste

This is the mind of a criminal
The criminal mind will find a way
To get money at any cost
This is the mind of a criminal
Go for the dough
You gamble and sacrifice your
Life for any loss
This is a mind of a criminal
Just evade cops
Never say stop because there's
Always a better day
This is a mind of a criminal
Under the influence
Convinced you'll never be caught but get away

And once again the criminal has won
Because our life is like a
Movie where the bad guy always wins
And the corner spots are
Full of sins and the fiends shoot
Heroin and when you're a
Little kid, convinced that you can
Never win tuck yourself in
Kid that's a bedtime story
