Once Upon a Time at Texaco pt. 1

We were sitting at the party drinking heavy
Yelling Believe in Life after Love
We were so damn drunk and doing our best impressions of Cher that we all could
Until someone said I'd kill for more tequila
Another voice said fuck man, we're out of drugs
In a moment of silence, I had an idea
And slowly started standing up
Oh
Let me use your car and I'll go
I didn't have money, but I knew that my friend
Always kept a pistol in the car
I parked down the street, where no one would see me
And walked into the gas station store
Yelling
La la da di
Don't start to cry
Just give me what I want and I'll go
La da da di
Put the money inside
No one wants to die in a Texaco
I was staring at the man behind the counter
The customers were laying on the floor
I said we're going to sing a song called the sound of silence
And you, just open the fucking drawer
But he pulled out a gun like a magician
Well, I've also learned some magic through the years
My bullet hocus pocus'ed through the back of his head and
Made the side of his jaw disappear
Goddamnit
La Da Da Die
I told you not to try

Look at what you made me do
La Da Da Die
Now you're gonna die
The only one to blame here is you
I'm guessing that you all feel like a hostage
But I'm sure it feels nice to be held
Though comedy and tragedy historically are linked
The joke didn't go over too well
Oh, please let us go, I promise that we won't say a thing
I said the next thing you do decides the version of you
Your family will see again
I had no idea where I was going
But I had to get the hell out of this town
I said give me your keys, you're coming with me
A few minutes later we were nowhere to be found
La la da die
Enjoy the ride
Keep your eyes on the road
La la da die
There was the sign
120 miles from Mexico
And then it hit me
