the mechanic

 
i don't wanna turn wrenches today
don't want to grind gears
or figure why this bitch won't shift
i just wanna grease the axles and send her on down the road
remember how
baby's blue eyes turn black
after a whole night of driving
eight ball hemorrhaging
around s curves
with no regard for dysfunctional linkage
i'd rather skip the step
of pressure testing the system
if it rolls
i'll ride
i hire to help me climb
fire her before she hits the ground
all my love
has a tail light warranty
