Failsafe
i've got a friend called dave
trying 2 make his way
so positive as he beats thru day to day
i'm thinking of watching as his boat comes in
the freaks out on my street
they don't bother me
coz when i move i don't ever
watch my feet
they're ducking & rushin'
as they all grow in
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
why do we have to stutter i won't say it twice
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
we do it to recover
you need your beans and rice
several days a week it all comes in on me
leaves me feeling weak
i don't mean just monies
i'm thinking of profit
but not the cash
treat me like a freak
i won't fail to speak
vagaries
love it when i peak
i'm thinking of stopping
but i can't hold back
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
why do we have to stutter i won't
say it twice
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
we do it to recover
you need your beans and rice
got my wages got my back pack
got my passport i ain't coming back
all of my nerve is all that i lack
round the next bend i might make a stash
never intend to give you offence
it didn't seem to make any sense
well prepared & in the present tense
all backed up by dollars & cents
we shove our hands in a vice
so all through our lives
we can pass out advise
like a bag full of dice
till then we despise
our own little lies
run for your lives
it's often wise
why does no one ever hold me
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
why do we have to stutter i won't
say it twice
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
we do it to recover
you need your beans an rice
got my sages got my bags packed
got my transport mercedes in black
loss of my nerve now that would be wack
i'm not gonna blend coz it gives me attacks
i never intend to make my defence
i got me hooked up on a false pretence
done my homework got me a good fence
now all that's left is the dollars & cents
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
why do we have to suffer i won't
say it twice
fail safe but i don't think it's nice
we do it to recover
you need your beans and rice
eventually
I got my defence
eventually
I got my defence
eventually
I got my defence
trying 2 make his way
so positive as he beats thru day to day
i'm thinking of watching as his boat comes in
the freaks out on my street
they don't bother me

why do we have to stutter i won't say it twice
