Lyrics
Live on a subway "Graffiti hall"
Living in a subway filled with graffiti
Said it one more time
Repeating a statement
Taking time to save my soul
Taking time to save one's soul
Still alive, in a bar maid
Still alive, encountering a barmaid
Said it weren't my time
Being told it's not one's time
Paid my dues they say belong
Having paid one's dues as expected
Ahh, ahh, somthin's wrong with the picture now
Sensing that something is wrong with the current situation
Ahh, ahh, the words don't seem to fit
Noticing that the words don't seem to fit the situation
Ahh, ahh, somethin's wrong with the picture now
Reiterating a sense of something being wrong
Blood will spill
Anticipating a violent outcome
Everybody round town
Referring to people around town
Ride the Jack
Invoking the concept of "Ride the Jack"
You ride the Jack
Repeating the idea of riding the Jack
Said it weren't my time
Being told it's not one's time (repeated)
Nothin' to do but lay low
Having nothing to do but stay low
I know, I know, I know
Expressing certainty or understanding
Said it weren't my time
Receiving confirmation that it's not one's time (repeated)
Set my dues, its eerie (oh)
Setting one's dues with a mysterious or ominous tone
Ahh, ahh, somthin's wrong with the picture now
Reiterating a sense of something being wrong (repeated)
Ahh, ahh, the words don't seem to fit
Noticing that the words don't seem to fit the situation (repeated)
Ahh, ahh, somethin's wrong with the picture now
Reiterating a sense of something being wrong (repeated)
Blood will spill
Anticipating a violent outcome (repeated)
Everybody round town
Referring to people around town (repeated)
Rides the Jack
Emphasizing the act of riding the Jack
You ride the Jack
Repeating the idea of riding the Jack
Ahh, ahh, somthin's wrong with the picture now
Reiterating a sense of something being wrong (repeated)
Ahh, ahh, the words don't seem to fit
Noticing that the words don't seem to fit the situation (repeated)
Ahh, ahh, somethin's wrong with the picture now
Reiterating a sense of something being wrong (repeated)
Blood will spill
Anticipating a violent outcome (repeated)
Everybody round this town
Referring to people around this town (repeated)
Rides the Jack
Emphasizing the act of riding the Jack (repeated)
You ride the Jack
Repeating the idea of riding the Jack (repeated)
You ride the Jack
-You ride the Jack
