Rancid - Cocktails Lyrics

Broke, dough, dope, the line is choked
Smoked the last dollar to her name
Are you buying?
Are you selling girl?
Tompkins Square never changed
And if I really wanna know
What it means for her to be free
Oh she's mixing cocktails
In a squat down Avenue C
(Lord have mercy!)

The parasitic cling on the most list things
Ah, they'll give her a fight
And the ditches are gonna be shallow so I know
There will be no f*cking rainbow in sight
And they deny allegations so strenuously
Oh man, don't get outta control
She was left wrestling in her silent anger
So elegant and beautiful

I ain't looking for answers
I don't want nothing is for free
I sure don't want your respect
I just wanna know who's talking to me
I just wanna know who's talking to me

I know she's jackin' homegirl's mackin'
Tried to make sure, that everybody knew
So she vexes them, oh to confuse them
Oh to annoy them that's what you do
She regulates she calls a trick she's gonna set her way
it's unstoppable for me and you
She won't relinquish herself to you, and I sense an emergency

She can cry, she can hide in the lower east side
There's a loop in the fast lane cursed
Above all the infamous, wicked circus of the fools
And if I really want to know how the pernicious stay on top
Oh they don't break, no they don't fake
They make her wake
They don't stop

I ain't looking for answers
I don't want nothing is for free
I sure don't want your respect
I just wanna know who's talking to me
I just wanna know who's talking to me

Yeah

I just wanna know who's talking to me
I just wanna know
I just wanna know who's talking to me
