Life Won't Wait
She's a Salvador immigrant, head through a thin wall 
A frail hooker, holding her carnal walls 
Gleaming sky scraper bunker he looked down 
Laugh hysterically and then he spread around 


On Hoover Street, then he must be alone
The precious little, the kid cashed/cast the woes
Of a ? girl she kind of made you spill 
Her brother Mario got shot 4 times in da head 


Now see poor Mario, he caught a hot one
Through the lung, 
now he's done so God bless the man
And the cocaine moves too fast 
through their system
Like a river forever winding
To the last party of the under/loner class


? distance just a bunch of kids 
who don't wanna finish last
Now see the market place has 
changed the weight of the scale 
You either get out and die or go to jail
And your best intentions splinter and frail/fail
And a few weeks of promises and attempts fail 


It's a glass-pipe murder
Glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah 


Glass-pipe murder
It's a glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah!!! 


(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)


They kick a bottle of beer and a letter
Simple (sip of?) things made Mario feel better
You see it falls on you and it falls on me
Self-annihilation, catastrophe 


Two packs of cigarettes
For two dollars and seventy cents and a
Bottle of wine that's been opened
And he said, "Why do I do this?" 


A shiver through his body like a bottle of CC
Not encouraging reality or me
He said, "It's who I am baby, back to it."
Off the deep end the record changed 


You see, no one stood up and cheered for him 
Everyone sat down with something that happened
Began... to happen
It's an old school dorm mystery
And the handcuffs bleed... 


It's a glass-pipe murder
Glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah


Glass-pipe murder
It's a glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah!!!


(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)


Who was the killer?... it's in the...
