Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Uptown, downtown
Haven't seen your face around
Paper says you shot a man
Trigger happy punk down in Chinatown
[Verse 2]
You're five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 3]
Sexy Sue from Hong Kong
Asked around, right or wrong?
Outta town, change your name
Or you get five years with a ball and chain
[Verse 4]
You're five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 5]
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 6]
You're life's on a steady tilt
I stand around and watch you wilt
Lose or win never mattered
Mattered to you
[Verse 7]
They always said you'd fall apart
I took the bet but I missed the mark
The kid was bad
Bad from the start
[Verse 8]
Left, right or up and down
Same old runaround
Neighborhood professional
Your ass is running into the ground
[Verse 9]
You're five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 10]
Uptown, downtown
Haven't seen your face around
Paper says you shot a man
Trigger happy punk down in Chinatown
[Verse 11]
You're five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 12]
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
Five years dead
[Verse 13]
Five years dead
