about

A cautionary tale of how short life is and how these poor souls earned their toe tags.

lyrics

(Hook) This ain't funny / So don'tcha dare laugh / Bodies in the morgue / Layin' on slabs / This ain't funny / So don'tcha dare laugh / Listen real close / To the epitaph / This ain't funny / So don'tcha dare laugh / This is the way / They got their toe tags
(Verse 1) This brother right here / Liked life in the fast lane / Tried every drug / Made him act real strange / He liked fast women / And even faster cars / He partied every night / At clubs and at bars / Thought he was a baller / Hittin' on dubs / Had a nice car / But still was a scrub / Had a nasty / Real expensive no doubt / Couldn't pay his debt / Got his eyes gouged out / Had his tongue cut / Then his throat slit / They found him in the dumpster / Chopped into bits / This little girl / Walkin' home from the store / With a gallon of milk / Nothin' less / Nothin' more / The light turned green / So she started to cross / Drunk driver ran the red light / Now her life is lost / This young man / Wrong place wrong time / Walked into a store / In the middle of a crime / Caught the robber by surprise / Got shot in the chest / Police caught the robber / But you can guess the rest
(Hook)
(Verse 2) This couple right here / Double homicide / Neighbor called in / Shots fired inside / Police found the bodies / Still under the covers / Husband caught his wife in bed / With her new lover / This one / She was a party girl / Fast money big ballers / That was her world / She ran low on cash / Livin' way too fast / To make extra dough / She started sellin' her ass / She used to be a tease / Now she's gettin' On her knees / That's how she caught / A real bad disease / It made her real sick / Her looks started to fade / But that's what happens / When you catch AIDS / And this young man / Tried to make a come up / Robbin' Houses at night / Then he really fucked up / He broke into the house / Of a big time dealer / Very well known / For being a cap peeler / Silent alarms is how he got caught / Last thing he heard / Was a gun being cocked
(Hook)
(Verse 3) This man / Couldn't deal with stress / Swallowed some pills / Cause his life was a mess / Just lost his job / Wife took the kids / Was about to go to jail / And do a long bid / He didn't wanna do time / At any cost / Poor bastard didn't know / his lawyer got him off / This one / What can I say / Dude got killed / Because he was gay / He came out the club / Went alone to his car / Parked around the corner / Just a little too far / He looked at his watch / Cause' someone asked the time / Ten minutes later / Victim of a hate crime / This last one / Tried to be a hero / But this ain't Taxi Driver / And he ain't DeNiro / He chased down a mugger / That snatched a women's purse / The mugger pulled a knife / And stabbed him first
(Hook)
