I fell into painting houses in Phoenix
I'd been there a week picked up an illegal on the street
The kid was nineteen years old
had a wife and kid in Loreto Mexico
The suburbs in the that town are a sprawl
we never knew where we were at all
we worked five days straight then we didnt pick him up
and i knew that the kid had never been paid
probably just waited at the meetin spot all day
we drove to a different part of town
picked up another kid for a job in the suburb
I didnt show up the next day
I aint shit but I aint that way
Got a job as a janitor at turf paradise
and i moved in with a girl who worked on the backside
at night id always read the news
metro section of the scottsdale tribune
a family left in the trunk of a car
or a family abandoned in the desert alone

watch a horse break down
or your girlfriend who cant stand the sight of her own face
or to watch your sister drink her life away
get me out of here get me out of here
get me out of here get me out of here
