Time and a Half

Time and a Half

Less Than Jake
(album: Losers, Kings, and Things We Don´t Understand)

It was a cold december on 2nd ave and 6th st.
Too cold to think about anybody passing me
When I overheard ´I´m gonna tell you straight from the shoulder...
Boy... You better get running´
On the corner of 2nd and 6th and outta time,
With a cough, feeling lost and a bottle of cheap wine.
Just then I realized that I can´t seem to understand
When I saw that guy heading for the dopeman.
It´s just the same old story on the same old street
And it´s just another worn down, worn out casualty
Of 2nd ave and 6th st.
On the corner of 2nd and 6th and feeling down
When I overheard ´I´m gonna take a gun and take you out´
Just then I realized that I can´t seem to understand
How anyone can take the life of another man.
It´s just the same old story on the same old street
And it´s just another worn down, worn out casualty
Of 2nd ave and 6th st.
