Stop and Go


Your selection of cigarettes is sub-par
And the variety of snack cakes you offer?
It's laughable!

But who am I to laugh?
I'm just a ghost
Cursed to haunt this convenience store

I lost my life in these aisles
Attempting the great Dimetapp heist of '04
What a waste!

I was going to cook down the Dimetapp
Into crystal meth
Does that even work?

I'll never know now
I should've never listened to Little Timmy and his crew
They led me astray

I've was a straight B student
I was a member of the Geographaletes
I wore hush puppies

Damn my need for peer acceptance
I should've listened to mama
Oh mama!

Did you see your baby
after he slipped on a raspberry icee spill
and cracked his skull on the dirty tiles

Did you weep for me?
Will anyone weep for me
Or will I spend the rest of my days alone

Thumbing through muscle magazines
And showing up on the security tapes
As nothing but a fuzzy blotch
