This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
I don't wanna play aroun' no more
I see that black cross painted on your door
We was good friends for a long, long time
But baby you got hungry for a life of crime
Get the message now?
The car you drive is painted red and grey
But if you ask me to get in
Well I'll jst run away
We was good friends for a long, long time
But baby you got hungry for a life of crime
Get the message now?
I see that black cross painted on your door
We was good friends for a long, long time
But baby you got hungry for a life of crime
Get the message now?
The car you drive is painted red and grey
But if you ask me to get in
Well I'll jst run away
We was good friends for a long, long time
But baby you got hungry for a life of crime
Get the message now?
