Lyrics
Another Day
(Verse 1)
Four o'clock in the morning, fast asleep on the floor
Glass breaking in the hallway, the suits are at my door
By the time I realize that something's gone wrong
They're reading me my rights and taking me along
Down to the station, up against the wall
Taking my photograph, giving me my one phone call
But it's gonna take miracle to save my ass
They're telling me nothing, I hope they didn't find my stash
(Chorus)
And so it goes, another day of my life
I'd like to get out of the ring cause I'm too tired to fight
The Devil only knows what else is in store
But I'm getting way too old, I can't take it anymore
(Verse 2)
I take a meeting, with the punk DA
He's offering me a deal that maybe I should take
All I have to do, is not re-offend
Raise my right hand and sell out all my friends
Then I get a visit from a very large man
Who says a friend of ours thinks I need a helping hand
Because our friend is concerned for my health
And it might be a good idea to keep some things to myself
(Bridge)
It seems I've got myself into a little mess
And everybody wants to help me, it's just good business
They don't want anything bad to happen to a nice guy like me
With friends like these who needs enemies
