Grass Is Green

Said I be down in the city

Walkin' around lookin' for someone

To be my victim to lay my

troubles on

Maybe a leader someone that'll

teach me

The ways of the road

The way to survive this hellhole

When the grass is green

Chorus

When the grass is green

I'll be swimmin' in a zone

I just dread to be alone

'Cause I'm afraid of me

Well, well, well....

And ain't nobody here when I'm

goin' through

I can't trust what I'll do to me

'Cause I have lonely dreams

When your grass is green

Down on the river contemplating

maybe suicide

Or maybe I'll take somebody

else's life

I didn't touch your purse for fun

I had a gun, I needed the funds

So don't you condemn me if you

don't know me

'Cause I'll be feenin' when your

grass is green

Chorus

Said I be donw in the gutter

Lookin' for food

Lookin' for mental satisfaction

And physical reaction

'Cause ain't no fairy in these tales

It's all about talkin' what you want

And makin' ball

And hopin' yo momma love you still

'Cause this grass ain't nothin' but

a mirror
