Lookin’ For Trouble

I had a friend
Least I thought I did
He kept his menace
He kept it well hid
Until one day
At the eleventh hour
He pulled a blade
Down at the clock tower
That’s the way the cookie crumbles
That’s the way it goes
When the faithless stumble
A story that everyone knows

We’ve all heard it
You just don’t think it’s gonna happen to you

Well I saw it clearly
I saw it in time
Man it’s a low down feelin’
When there’s a dead cat on the line
You gots to feed your friends
With a long-handled spoon
Or you’ll be lookin’ at the coolin-board
Lord way too soon
That’s the way the cookie crumbles
That’s the way it goes
When the faithless stumble
A story that everyone knows

Watch your step

Now upfront I treat you right
But if you cross me
I won’t think twice ‘bout messing you up
Just like my man back there
I left all cut up and dyin’
I will make sure you wish you hadn’t crossed me
You lookin’ for trouble
You’ve come to the right place
