No Exit

There's no sin in this
Getting dressed to kill
Laughing down the sun like a jackal will
With his eyes ablaze
And his lips apart
He's gonna fill his cup with the love in your heart
And drink it up till the morning starts
Circulate the red light vistas
Get the girls and get their sisters
Pinch 'em up and give 'em blisters
Kiss 'em fierce with all his might, forever
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Standing on the verge of the edge of the ledge
Waiting for me to fall
But then I got a call, it said
"Wait, hold up homie
You must be trippin'
You can't be putting that skimping
And wimping up in your pipping
You better stand tall, fool
You was born to ball
Took a little fall and now you wanna end it all
You've been chasing dreams
Like a hound dog on the hunt
Take your place in the front
Put your hand on the pump
And it's right in your grasp, man
I know they're laughing
But you'll be laughing later
'Cause time's are gonna get greater
You's' a player
And when I say player I mean player
'Cause your daddy and your uncle was a player"
Who's gonna cry for ya'?
Who's gonna cry over you?
Who's gonna cry for ya'?
Who's gonna cry over you?
Put yourself in your position
You aren't wishing for no food
And no warmth and no light
So you must be doing all right
But wait a minute
Something's wrong
It's lunatic, it's mad, insane
Busted like a water main
Indulgence in another vein
What they're saying round the neighbourhood
Is what he's drinking is not aged in wood
He's filling out, he's all growed up
He's all blowed up, he's gotten fat
He's filling out, he's all growed up
He's all blowed up, he's gotten fat
And sure enough at the midnight lounge
There's a dent in the seat where the vampire sat
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Living dead is doing time
Like drowning on the circle line
Who's gonna cry for ya'?
Who's gonna cry over you?
Who's gonna cry for ya'?
Who's gonna cry over you?
Who's gonna cry over you?
Cry over you?
Tell me would they lie for you?
Die for you?
You're hoping that it's true for you
Do for you, fool
But who's gonna cry?
Who's gonna cry?
