five years dead

uptown downtown

haven't seen your face around

paper said you shot a man

trigger happy punk down in chinatown

you're five years dead

sexy sue from hong kong

asked around right or wrong

outa town change your name

or ya get five years with a ball and chain

you're five years dead

your life's on a steady tilt

i stand around and watch you wilt

lose or win

never mattered-mattered to you

they always said you'd fall apart

i took the bet

but i missed the mark

the kid was bad-bad from the start left

right

up and down

same old runaround

neighborhood professional

your ass is runnin' into the ground

you're five years dead

uptown downtown

haven't seen your face around

paper said you shot a man

trigger happy punk down in chinatown

you're five years dead
