Stitch in time For a dime Passion crime A penny saved is a penny earned Get rich quick Turn your trick Make it quick Another bailbonds court adjourned The rat race Sets the pace Leaves a trace To teach you what you've never learned
[Chorus] The wear and tear Has taken its toll Twelve hundred scars Another years old The wear and tear Has taken its toll Each battlescar The blood runs cold
White or black The meat rack On your back But not until the price is paid Mind at ease Aim to please On your knees Cause that's the way the money's made Time slips by To tough to cry You wonder why Your morals have now decayed Pay the dues Black and blues It's what you choose To live life the way you want Familiar face That's the case But no disgrace Your memory they will always haunt Time will tell End this hell What you sell You will someday no longer flaunt
