Well, hello and how are you dear old friend
I've gotta say it's good to see you again
And I'd love your company, if you've nothing to do
Come, sit here beside me, and tell me what's new

It's been quite a while since I saw you last
It's hard to believe nearly a year has past
I'm happy to hear you're doing well for yourself
Guess you can't judge a book by the dust on its shelf

We both have felt the changes in the weather
Not to say it's for the worse or for the better
It's not hope nor despair that's a-lingering in the air

It's just the smell of cold coffee, spilled on the table
A twisted tounge, unable to narrate the fable
The little we once had is no longer there

Some stupid folks might wonder, where we go from here
Though the answer to that question is crystal clear
I could buy you another drink, try and make you stay
But I know that when you're full, you'll have to be on your way

I guess I could tell you to give me a call
We could deal another deck and see what cards would fall
But it seems pretty pointless to continue this pretending
You believe in juicy plots, I believe in happy endings

Yesterday is gone, we've both left it behind
But I promise I'll think of you from time to time
Whatever path you walk, I wish you well

Don't bother breaking wills by using force
There's no stopping fate from taking its course
And if we meet again, no one can tell

We both have felt the changes in the weather
Not to say it's for the worse or for the better
It's not hope nor despair that's a-lingering in the air

It's just the smell of cold coffee, spilled on the table
A twisted tounge, unable to narrate the fable
The little we once had is no longer there

Dear Old Friend

Well, I was walking by myself on a cold, dark street
My stomach was aching, had to get something to eat
Well, I had no money, I'm a low-life scum
I reached down in my jacket, pulled out my six-gun
I knew just what to do, I had to grab the money and run

I've gotta grab the money and run
I've gotta grab the money and run
I've gotta grab the money
So I won't go hungry tonight

Well, I walked into a store I hadn't been inside before
When the owner saw my gun, she got a scare for sure
I said: "you just stay calm, and put the money in the bag
Or I'ma blow your brains out, you dirty ol' hag!"
I knew just what to do, I had to grab the money and run

I've gotta grab the money and run
I've gotta grab the money and run
I've gotta grab the money
So I won't go hungry tonight

I got away with the crime, like I always do
And for now atleast, my stomach's full of fod
But when the sun comes up, I'll get hungry again
And then it might be you who I'll rob, my friend
I'll know just what to do, I'm gonna grab your money and run

I'm gonna grab you money and run
I'm gonna grab your money and run
I'm gonna grab your money
So I won't go hungry tonight

Grab The Money And Run

Last year in May, my girl ran away
I was betrayed for a man with better pay
She said there was nothing I could do or say
That would make her stay

I wish I'd gotten struck
By a ten ton truck
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk

I was feeling low, I was feeling down
I became renowned in every bar in town
Thought strong liqour'd turn my frown around
Got crowned the king of clowns

All hope, I'd given up
For the whiskey in my cup
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk

I was broke and beat, living on the streets
I was begging and borrowing just so I could eat
At times I had to chew on my feet
And they weren't such a treat

Didn't have no hook
To drop in no brook
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk

You gotta understand, I was a desperate man
Tired of digging through damned trashcans
I had to come up with a plan
My career of crime began

I cursed the holy book
Chose to become a crook
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk

I had a homemade blade and a pair of shades
To hide the fact I was deathly afraid
A rich man's house, tried to raid
Got sneak-attacked by his maid

Thought I'd try my luck
Didn't even get a buck
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk

The law came fast and convicted me
The penitentiary for three centuries
Well, they locked me up and hid the keys
I guess I'll never be free

Behind these steel bars, I'm stuck
At life, I just plain suck
Well, the good Lord knows I don't give a fuk
