GOT AWAY WITH MURDER

 by Kevin Kiive

 

Got away with murder

At least that's what they said

Climbed aboard a westbound train

Told the sheriff I was dead

Told the sheriff I was dead

 

Well they found me in the garden

tear stains in my eye

I said I didn't do it

But I'm wanted dead or alive

Dead or alive

Better run and hide

 

 

I feel so low in my empty soul

My heart's a lot like elastic

My eyes are dim I can't see no more

They turned the lights off in the attic

 

 

Got away with murder

But I'm always on the run

As far as I go I can't get away

From the evil that I've done

 

They can take away my birthday

put me in a hole

That'd be easier than

The shape I'm in

Haunted by my soul

Oh my worried soul

 

I feel so low in my empty soul

My heart's a lot like elastic

My eyes are dim I can't see no more

They turned the lights off in the attic

 

Got away with murder

and there’s no where left to run

The judge is with the jury

The devil already won (persecuted son)

He’s a son of a gun

 

So you can take away my birthday

put me in a hole

That'd be easier than

The shape I'm in

Haunted by this soul

Oh my worried soul

 

I feel so low in my empty soul

My heart's a lot like elastic

My eyes are dim I can't see no more

They turned the lights off in the attic

“HOT APPLE COBBLER”

by Kevin Kiive

 

I GOT THE SALISBURY STEAK

I GOT THE MASH POTATOES

GOT THE CORN CROSSING OVER IF NOT THE PEAS AND CARROTS

NOT THE HUNGRY MAN MEAL THAT MAKES YOU SLOBBER

ITS THE BURN YOUR FVCKIN’ MOUTH

HOT APPLE COBBLER!

 

ALUMINUM TRAY, DESERT PEALED BACK

350 OVEN ON THE CENTER RACK

30 MINUTE TIMER AND ALL FOR TWO DOLLAR

STILL YOU BURN YOUR FVCKIN’ MOUTH ON THAT

HOT APPLE COBBLER!

 

YOU CAN BLOW ON IT, BLOW ON IT MIGHT AS WELL

BLOW ON IT, BLOW ON IT, IT MIGHT HELP

BLOW ON IT, BLOW ON IT  I’LL NEVER TELL

YOU CAN WAIT ABOUT AN HOUR

IT’S STILL HOT AS HELL!

 

WATCHING ANIMAL KINGDOM ON A SATURDAY NIGHT

ITS GETTING REAL BY THE TV LIGHT

WIPE YOUR LIP YOU’RE STARTING TO SLOBBER

CAUSE YOU BURN YOUR FVCKIN’ MOUTH

ON THE HOT APPLE COBBLER!

“It’s a deal with no money”

by Kevin Kiive

 

Tears Sunday morning don’t mean nothing on Saturday night

You were living high with no regrets

and no way to change your mind

 

Now I know you feel it, holding on to aces high

But the dealer’s full house left you in doubt

And you know there is no “last time”

 

It’s a deal with no money

The devil wants a soul

It’s all in what you’re living

But you can’t let go…

 

Preaching the blues helps get you through the night

The harder it feels

The more it seems, yeah, to feel just right

 

Now I know what’s left and it feels real [real] bad

But it’s a hurt that you need, so come let it bleed

Don’t let me take you from that

 

It’s a deal with no money

The devil wants a soul

It’s all in what you’re living 

And you can’t let go

 

Life isn’t fair

Temptation beware

You’re trading your soul

Still you can’t let go…

 

There’s no money on the table

Cause the payments in your chest

If he wins the night, he’ll steal your life

And leave you without your rest

 

And the payout for the playing

If you agree to the plan

Is a seat at the table, where you practically beg him 

to deal you another hand

 

It’s a deal with no money

The devil wants a soul

It’s all in what you’re living 

And you can’t let go

 

Life isn’t fair

Temptation beware

You’re trading your soul

Still you can’t let go…

YOU CAN’T BREAK A WINDOW

by Kevin Kiive

 

They said you had a ball

Raging through a lonely old night

You turned it up loud

Dealing with the heartache and lies

 

If you were going down

Ain’t nothing gonna stand in your way

 

Cheat lying sky

Won’t be nothing but blue today

 

You can’t break a window you don’t want to see through

You can’t live a lie and expect to hear the truth

You can’t change your mind if you got nothing left to say

But it really doesn’t matter when you’re right 

either way....

 

Hands on the glass

Looking for some kind of relief

Focused on the past

Ain’t no way to gather your feet

 

Big boss man says

I think you might be out of your mind

 

Well tell me how to live 

I’ll try to do it better next!

 

You can’t break a window you don’t want to see through

You can’t live a lie and expect to hear the truth

You can’t change your mind if you got nothing left to say

But it really doesn’t matter when you’re right 

either way....

 

So blow it all up 

make it look like Fourth of July

you gotta do it big

So we got something to remember you by

 

Big boss man says

i think you might be out of your mind

 

Well tell me how to live

I’ll try to do it better next time

 

You can’t break a window you don’t want to see through

You can’t live a lie and expect to hear the truth

You can’t change your mind if you got nothing left to say

But it really doesn’t matter when you’re right 

either way....

 

Come on let me in

Big boss man
