First There Was

Lyrics

I came into town
 I was looking for a job
 I couldn't find nothin'
 So I started looking for someone to rob
 I took my ski mask
 And I put it over my face
 Walked into the feed store
 And I shot everyone in the place
 First there was a funeral and
 Then there was a trial
 Hung me in a courtyard and
 They let me hang up there a while
 Let me hang up there a while
 I bought a new shirt
 So soft to touch
 And a new pair of beetle boots
 They didn't cost me too much
 I went to the movies
 I couldn't get a date
 Women on the silver screen
 Are the only ones to which I can relate
 First there was a funeral and
 Then there was a trial
 Hung me in a courtyard and
 They let me hang up there a while
 Let me hang up there a while
 My eyes got heavy
 I fell asleep
 Usher came by and said
 "Get outta here you creep"
 I pulled out my .38
 I blew him away
 If you disrespect me
 That's the price you'll pay
 First there was a funeral and
 Then there was a trial
 Hung me in a courtyard and
 They let me hang up there a while
 Let me hang up there a while
