Lyrics
Chicago Overcoat
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Innocent victim filled up with pills
Or so it would seem to the rumbler scene
Her getaway sticks made contact with bricks
Caught skating around
Now it's the big sleep
[Chorus]
But don't you see that you do it to yourself?
'Cause I can taste that you've been with someone else
That's when they told me to run
Your fingerprints are on that gun
And your shirt is soaked with blood that isn't yours
Run, your fingerprints are on that gun
And revenge is only fun when you get away
Filled her with daylight
Heat fought the good fight
If I get copped it's electric cure
gotta throw lead and leave them for dead if figured then we'll do the dance for sure
[Chorus]
Grab a little air
Hammer and saws are
Giving me a scare
Run for your money
Everybody's there
And they've got a curse on me
They don't understand they got no kick
A simple reprimand won't do the trick
Chilled off the broad and facing lead poisoning
[Chorus]
I guess revenge is always fun
Revenge is the most fun when you get away
