The Nickle Ride

from The Nickle Ride by Bill White

/

lyrics

Sometimes we played it gentle
Sometimes we played it rough
You want to go through it one more time
But me, I’ve had enough
After 16 trillion incarnations
I still can’t get it right
So put away your nickels
Im getting off this ride

From star to star I’ve followed you
But it was all a lie
And Ill put a bullet in your skull
Before I take the nickel ride

I don’t care if you have pictures
And compromising tapes
You can take them to the precinct
Tell them I escaped
Say my fingerprints are everywhere
On the windows and the walls
I’ll be waiting for your friends
Upstairs from Kingdom Hall

And I’ll tell you this, old partner
As our two worlds collide
I’ll kill your whole damn family
Before I take that Nickel Ride

Someday some night I will go down
Beneath the Chelsea Bridge
Where we dumped the bodies
After burning off their skin
You were such a bad ass
I thought you were the king
But neither of us turned out
To be much of anything

Before you put your nickels on my eyes
Ill have you stripped and tied
And Ill cut you the fuck up like a fucking piece of linoleum
Before I take that nickel ride
