Crooked LYRICS

Verse 1

Born in a crooked world
Living in a crooked place
Doesn't anybody see what I see, I see

Is everybody blind
Or we all have crooked eyes
Gotta re-check, eject everything that's worthless

Chorus

Down in the ground
No you don't want to be dragged down
With your face down, with your face down
Gotta stand up straight
Better pick up the pace
The road ain't wide
Are we walking the same page?

Verse 2

Drove on crooked lane
Saw a crooked old man
Sitting by the crooked thrash can
Begging crooked cash
And all the crooked leather suit guys
Passed the crooked man
Some gave crooked cents
Some just walked past by
With their crooked girlfriends
Carrying their crooked shopping bags
In these crooked hard times
Being crooked is the life
We've traded everything that's right
To satisfy our crooked needs
Gotta eject everything that's worthless

Bridge

Make straight your ways
The better things in life, ain't here
Its on the other side
Fix your crooked life, Fix your crooked life

Verse 3

In my crooked mind
Laid a crooked old plan
Where I was freakin' crooked rich
And got a crooked house with a crooked car
Plan a crooked party and invite my crooked friends
But then I woke up feeling crooked in my crooked bed
Got a crooked heart and a crooked soul
And just like me you're crooked and you don't know where to go
Crooked for life is a stupid crooked plan
Gotta recheck, eject everything that's worthless

Coda:

Crooked heart, crooked mind
Crooked love, crooked time
Crooked house, crooked cars
Crooked Job, crooked friends
Crooked dreams, crooked hope
Crooked Faith, crooked Soul
Etc, Etc, gotta eject them (down)
