lyrics

I woke up in San Francisco just to kiss the sea good-bye.
I was parched in need of wisdom, I drank a well of whiskey dry.

Now I'm not much of a killer, but I know how it feels to die.
I've got no fear from your cigarette, 'cause I've still got 8 lives.

I woke up from a coma, in a coffin underground.
Befriended by some angels, they said "Child you have been found."

Now I'm not much of a criminal, but I've done my share of time.
I've got no fear from your bottle of booze, 'cause I've still got 5 lives.

Give me easy, Get me gone.
If I think that I'm loved, don't tell me I'm wrong.
If I'm out the door, I'm not coming back.
You say Hey, I like the sounds of that.

Stray dogs on a clear night on the coast of Mexico.
It was rumoured you blew kisses, all I saw was blowing smoke.

Now I'm not much of a lawyer, but I know how it feels to lie.
I've got no fear from your pretty pink pills, 'cause I've still got 3 lives.

Give me easy, Get me gone.
If I think that I'm loved, don't tell me I'm wrong.
If I'm out the door, I'm not coming back.
You say Hey, I like the sounds of that.

Now I'm not much of a killer, but I know how it feels to die.
I've gained respect from Time & Vices, now I've just got one life.
