Black Friday Rule (Live From The Wiltern, Los Angeles/2006)
One two, one two three four
I want to believe in myself once again
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
And for every tear that is lost from an eye
I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
But all I remember is the freedom of old
Hey
Well, I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
Flew all the way to California, yeah
This mess in my head is a mess getting out
Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout
But after a while, when my mouth ain't so dry
I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head
'Cause I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule, yeah
It's a long way took a wary
It's a long way took off
It's a long way, took a wary
To the sweetest mother that I know
That I know
That I know
Yeah, you can tell when theres too much shit in the black
You know what I'm saying
I wonder why there's playing for God's sake
So up
Anybody up there in the football role
I mean, I don't mean American football
Because, as you all know me and Los Angeles don't even have any
You know what I'm saying
I'm not talking about American football because Italian
Anything that doesn't require a helmet, it should be called a football game
I mean come on
I have a sulk in when I hear football
And I have to say
You have to forgive me here
Because, this week hasn't been a good week for the uh
Los Angeles football team because uh
This week in the World cup qualifiers
We went too of our groove this week so I'm very happy
Some due to big favour Los Angeles
Do take what I'm saying right now okay
Cause shes a very happy team right now okay
You ready
Are you fucking ready
Oh lay oh lay oh lay oh lay
Oh lay oh lay
Oh lay oh lay oh lay oh lay

She said come down come down come down
To Miami dear
Will you come down come down come down
Slay
So i got on a plane
And I flew
To California yeah yeah
Where the buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
But there ain't no jobs in the old free state
So I must remain in my new adopted land
I'm doing the best, hell I'm doin' all I can
So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
For I am the king and sure long may I reign
'Cause I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
