lyrics

And when the police get you
they beat you black and blue
but my legend still be true
my name: SMAKK22

We ride the trains in vain
We are stealing out at night
and we shall write our names
those names, they shine so bright

And we were wired for science
and kingly
this town, it wears our names
and rightly!
Colours to dazzle - done!
Fame to inspire - done!
Walk the tracks: death-dicing
nine lives for a cool cat

And when the gangs get you
they beat you black and blue
but my legend still be true
my name: SMAKK22

I was wired for science
and kingly
this town it wears my name
believe me!
And me, I see the trains through black eyes
And she forgives when I'm not there
when I am there
when they call to bail be home.

They beat you black and blue
and you may not always rule
but my legend still be true
my name? SMAKK22.
