Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde - Fast Life слова песни
Verse 1 Now fast life cut him like a knife And this sad story is not so nice About a fast young kid who was full of tricks Growin` up too slick and much too quick A real smart kid, but never went to class He was too busy out there jettin` fast Told all the kids that school was square He did the things that they wouldn`t dare No Pacman, Donkey Kong or game of tag Cos he was too busy scramblin` nickel bags Didn`t have no morals and showed no shame And he didn`t grow up playing childhood games Cos what he sees is all he knows And his heart`s in the street, where anything goes I`m talkin` drugs and dope, crime and corruption The kid is headed for self-destruction Chorus (Fast Life) He likes to wheel and deal (Fast Life) He likes to rob and steal (Fast Life) How long can a good thing last? (Fast Life) Hey boy! Don`t you jet so fast! Verse 2 Now by the age of twelve he was pullin` strings And he had his hand on everything Doin` crazy things to impress his friends He stole the keys to a brand new Benz Got behind the wheel, it was just for fun And then he saw the cops and then he started to run And like a chase scene from a movie script He hit the gas and then he started to dip And like the Knight Rider on TV Huh, the kid came speedin` down the street Didn`t see that lady with her child He tried to turn but the car went wild She saw that car and then she started to shout But it slammed into her and it took `em out He`s too young to be in a life of crime Any other kid, it`s their bedtime Repeat Chorus Verse 3 By the age of thirteen he`d set the scene He was trying to make some heavy green Started selling cocaine and bundles of dope Money became his only love To make cold cash was his vow He was the man with the plan, the big guy now He said, "I`m not down where Reagan`s planned So I might as well take all I can" But that savage ghetto mentality Is the kind that keeps you in the street I said, "Hey fast kid, why don`t you use your head? Cos if you don`t you`ll soon be dead" Repeat Chorus Uh! [Break] 1,2,3,4, hit it! Verse 4 Well fast kid, you could use your brains Or get `em knocked out with bats and chains You knew it all but you never learned You played with fire, and you got burned Cos if you deal, then you must play And if you borrow, then you got to pay And you gotta pay back with no delay Or six feet under you will lay One day while standin` on the rooftop The kid got cornered by the cops Homeboys were sayin`, "I told you so What a lowdown shame, what a way to go" Now it is told, and it is said That at his grave his tombstone read "He lived too fast and lost his stride He should of grew up before he died" (Fast Life) How long can a good thing last? (Fast Life) Hey boy, don`t you jet so fast (Fast Life) At the end of a shotgun blast (Fast Life) Your future could be your past (Fast Life) [Repeat to fade]
