I could be wrong and I guess
But I remember that the ground
you better take your coat
I must have been nineteen years old
Working the counter making
Selling discount smokes to the
I didn't pay much thought
your face will freeze fast
But I bet that I looked sorta dumb
When I first caught sight of
There I am, adrenaline high and
Tryin to decide how I feel
Is that a goddamn? Wait a minute
It is a flare gun and guess where
He nodded his head so opened
And grabbed a paper bag for the money
I handed him the cash and
He just stood there looking
I'm thinking "Yo, why the fuck
C'mon crazy white boy, don't
That bag is worth maybe two- thirty
Not enough for you to pull
the trigger back and burn me
By now you should be down the street
Ain't you never seen the way
Yeah it was fun but it's done,
"Ah, do you want me lay down on the
ground and start countin crops?"
Before the ski way even started noddin
I was already on that, one one- thousand,
The front door beeped, I heard him leave
Gotta close the shop and lock
Cause some trailer trash just
[Verse 2] Everybody acted so suspicious
I guess the flare gun story
Are you accusing me of petty
Bosses and cops can't be my friend
Never felt loyalty to either again
And to keep it real, the irony didn't set
Until a year later when I got fired
