From the This Album Has No Title album...

pay the rent

who let the man inside the house
who heard me scream it out loud
in my room at a quarter to five
can i make it out alive?

who let the cat out of the bag
now he's walking past the man
i'm so tired, i'm so spent
got no money to pay the rent

i'm due
and so are you too

who let the man inside the house
who heard me scream it out loud
in my kitchen face-to-face
don't i feel like a total disgrace

who lit the burner on the stove
got the itching in my eye
got no excuse, no alibi
got no reason, got no rhyme

he's pointing fingers in my face
don't i feel like a total disgrace
i can smell the ream of fear
pouring from my unwashed ear

i'm due
and so are you too

who let the man inside the house
who let the man inside the room
who let the man inside my head
now i've got to shoot him dead

while i've got no alibi
why not jump me a last time
all this pleasure, all this pain
can feel it begin to wane...

(words & music: winston campbell)
