mr. john doe - meshgrid lyrics
[chorus]
mr. john doe single*handedly robbed a bank
no crumbs left for cops and the bodies stank
drove away in his big white ordinary truck
is it sk!ll, is it talent, or is it just luck?
[verse 2]
in a small house far from the big ones
mr. john doe lived a lonely, gracious life
his wife left him long ago
took the kids, life turned to sough
[verse 2]
no money to buy nor the food nor the booze
prepared for anything ‘cause he can’t lose
wife and kids – you know where this cliche leads
so let’s just skip to the one bad for future good deeds
[verse 3]
sitting in the bar drinking late at night
talking with some caring friends, fictions of his mind
he was envy, felt useless and blue
he could be callous and successful too
[verse 4]
hearing someone talk about things you do
makin’ someone better look up to you
had these drunken dreams – is it a god’s sign?
and in that reverie he’d seen the line
[chorus]
mr. john doe single*handedly robbed a bank
no crumbs left for cops and the bodies stank
drove away in his big white ordinary truck
is it sk!ll, is it talent or he doesn’t give a f*ck?
[verse 5]
bought a gun in the closest army shop
not the right thing but it’s too late to stop
he still got time to die and ditch
but in his pocket finally something to be reached
[verse 6]
barrel flashed like a fool’s gold
give me all you got and do as you’re told
ma’am didn’t scream but someone must play a brave fool
time for mr. john doe to prove that he’s cruel
[verse 7]
sneaky pete’ll save the day but mr. doe will do the rest
aims for the leg, shoots him in the chest
first k!ll is scored so the hardest part is done
everyone knows how to talk with a gun
[verse 8]
people panic, there’s a john doe standing there
“down on your kneese”, said he shooting in the air
next step to self*approval – conquer the world
no more mister nice boring guy, spread the word
[chorus]
mr. john doe single*handedly robbed a bank
no crumbs left for cops and the bodies stank
jumping over fences
crossing different streets
he can pay for the alimony
food and friends
he’s got a lot to lose
wh0res and booze
[instrumental break]
[verse 9]
so did you hear the news? all papers scream –
mr. john doe robbed a bank again
he’s too self*disciplined now, he can’t be stopped
all those years of asceticism helped a lot
he took the money, jewels and clothes gone
dug them deep down so it can’t be found
[outro]
and if they caught him even he wouldn’t know
only black earth knows how to rob mr. john doe
waiting for the end
with a bounty on his head
dead end is only way
but the worse is to stay
he’s got nowhere to be
yet he will always break free
he’s got nowhere to go
yet you will never, ever, ever catch mr. john doe
