Caution to the Wind (feat. Hodgie)

I woke up one day from a dream I was feeling pretty clever And feeling pretty mean I thought I could handle any scene Till I was proven dead wrong by reality I traveled to a tavern first Knowing where I was going I needed to quench my thirst Didn't have the slightest inkling that I was cursed I was distracted by the quest in which I was immersed I traveled to a time forgotten town Thinking I could push people around (Thinking) When I tell the clerk to hit the ground Yah I think I will astound this old little township The place was vacant 'cept for the clerk and myself He was staring at my back as I was staring at the shelf I figured I should prob'ly be stealth Don't wanna draw attention to the impending hell Cuz I might just throw caution to the wind To his surprise I paid for my groceries Before I told him to bend to his trembling knees He didn't hesitate to give me the office keys He knew the sight of the safe would save his life and appease The conscience was clean but the cash was dirty I was headin' toward the highway in a hurry Until I was confronted by the one man's fury He said I'm the judge, executioner and the jury I said welcome to the monkey house where I commit sin I am gonna through all of my caution to the wind Try and take your life away even thought it's a sin To continue on the wretched path that I've been wandering With pistols pulled we removed our ammunition Attempting to stay out of one another's vision My trigger finger took a shot that him How the hell did my mind come to this decision I dragged the body off into the brush I left a strip of rubber as I burned out in a rush The evidence that I left it wasn't much But for the sheriff of the county it was just enough I said welcome to the monkey house where I commit sin I am gonna through all of my caution to the wind Try and take your life away even thought it's a sin To continue on the wretched path that I've been wandering I took shelter in an abandoned shop I was shocked and I was feeling half cocked I knew they wouldn't take me standing up So I loaded my pistol when I heard the cops Now all I ask is that you do not ignore me I am trying to tell you a cautionary story One that by now should be boring Megalomaniacs are given too many warnings!
