Selling Crank and X to Cops

from A Dusty Bible Leads to A Dirty Life by The Halcyon Brothers

lyrics

Steven hoisted oceans with the notion there’d be scars
He even scored a potion from the barber to the stars
Despite the big commotion that would come from local barbs
Who penned about his exploits as they sang and danced with whores

As they sang and danced with whores
As they sang and danced with whores
Then penned about he’s exploits
As they sang and danced with whores

Now Randy drives a used car as he pulls in to the lot
He used to be an H-Back for the Boston Patriots
But, now he is a runner for some lawyer down the block
The chancellor a high school pal, they both like classic rock

Yes, they both like classic rock
Yes, they both like classic rock
The chancellor a high school pal
They both like classic rock

When Jeremy got home from school, he had to mow the lawn
But first he had some grass inside he thought would ease his skull
Now who’s to say the price of gin is getting out of line
Oh wait, that was my cousin Jim who works at getting high

He works at getting high
Yes, he works at getting high
Oh wait, that was my cousin Jim
He works at getting high

He’s got a second venture that he’s started on the side
It came to him while sleeping just past noon and into night
A thought that was so crazy, he thought it was worth a shot
He’s scored a brand new job selling crank and x to cops

Selling crank and x to cops
Selling crank and x to cops
He’s scored a brand new job
Selling crank and x to cops

The Halcyon Brothers Minneapolis, Minnesota

Halcyon is a poetic name for a Kingfisher. It is said that the floating nest of the Halcyon brings calm to the cruel sea. The Halcyon Brothers decorate the weight of the world in a charming and medicated disguise. The sound embraces with a clinched smile, and then stumbles and occasionally falls only to somehow prop itself back up for another round. ... more
