Time and a Half - Less Than Jake

It was a cold december on 2nd ave and 6th st

Too cold to think about anybody passing me

When I overheard 'I'm gonna tell you straight from the shoulder…

Boy… You better get running'

On the corner of 2nd and 6th and outta time

With a cough, feeling lost and a bottle of cheap wine

Just then I realized that I can’t seem to understand

When I saw that guy heading for the dopeman

It’s just the same old story on the same old street

And it’s just another worn down, worn out casualty

Of 2nd ave and 6th st

On the corner of 2nd and 6th and feeling down

When I overheard 'I'm gonna take a gun and take you out'

Just then I realized that I can’t seem to understand

How anyone can take the life of another man

It’s just the same old story on the same old street

And it’s just another worn down, worn out casualty

Of 2nd ave and 6th st
