These Days
You have to be real careful these days,
things that seem natural,
you better keep to yourself.
Remember, they will kill you if they can.
Got to run loose and free these days,
no telling who it was,
that wouldn’t be good.
Remember, they would kill you if they could.
I started thinking about things these days.
Like being a flawed swine,
but still being a respectable chap.
Remembering, that they will kill me if at all possible.
Better keep things down low and tight these days.
Got to be ready for it,
when everything finally hits the fan.
Remembering this, if nothing else, they're going to kill me one of
these days.
