Dry Powder Songtext
IT WAS IN THE SMOKING FRYING PAN
YEAH THAT'S WHERE WE'D BEEN DRINKING
LEFT A STREAM OF FOAMING PISS
UP A LANEWAY IN YOUR DISTRICT
THE TRAIN HAD TRAILING SPARKS
THAT FIZZED LIKE RIND AND GRIZZLE
IT WAS GIVE OR TAKE AN AVERAGE DAY
THOUGH MY ACCOUNTS ARE FIDDLED

AND THEY ARE NOT
GIVING MUCH AWAY
NO THEY ARE NOT... NOT... NOT
GIVING MUCH AWAY
GONNA KEEP THE POWDER DRY
BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHY
THE TARGETS LOOK SO SOFT
THESE TARGETS LOOK SO SOFT

I KINDLY HELPED AN EMPTY CAN
UP A ROADWAY IN THE DRIZZLE
WALKED THE WORN OUT PATH
THAT CUTS A SHORTCUT ROUND THE PRISON
THERE IS NOT MUCH LEFT
THAT'S RIGHT SMACK BANG DOWN THE MIDDLE
WHEN THE PEOPLE FACE THE BULLDOZERS
THE ALARMS THEY SHOULD BE RINGING

BEST JUST STEP IN FROM THE RAIN
AND SHOW A LITTLE RESTRAINT
ACT AGAINST THE ACTION
BEFORE IT'S WAY TO LATE
THEY HAVE BEING EGGING ME ON
THEY TREAT THOSE GUNS
LIKE THEY'RE
WHY ARE WE KEEPING THE POWDER DRY
WHEN THE TARGETS LOOK THIS SOFT?
