Peace and Love - Jaya The Cat

Out on the streets tonight driving with the top down

Running all the red lights waiting for the meltdown

Got a naked lady lighter and a hash pipe on the dash

Pocket full of spare change trying to make it last

Well I’m gliding like an angel through these dead end streets

Until the morning breaks and makes another promise it can’t keep

So until I check out and lay me down to sleep

I won’t sacrifice my good times for your fake securities

Well I turn on the TV it’s the same old thing

A bunch of shit that don’t mean much to me

Check the headlines man it’s just a drag

War and destruction this whole world’s gone mad

But down at the pub it’s just peace and love

All that stupid shit don’t mean a thing

And you wonder why I drink

From the county lockdown the devil calls collect

Flips over the receiver and sings to the scratch track

Man the rhythm hits the floor before the wax is dried

Waiting by the backstage door to sneak our way inside

And it’s all night till daylight underneath the strip lights

Crank up the bass and pass the bottle to the right

So don’t talk about tomorrow cause I’m still stuck here today

But in the end it don’t mean nothing anyway

My girl keeps bitching on a Tuesday night

Got to be someone’s fault I guess it’s mine

The fridge is empty and my bills are due

Fuck if I know where this is going to

My landlord’s calling but the money’s gone

Lay on the couch and turn the hi-fi on

Still owe my dealer for that dime last week

Dropped my cell phone in the kitchen sink
