lyrics

You don't know me
Because no one can know me
I don't know me
No one will let me

But what does it matter
When the whole world will just choke on its own bile?
I mean the people at the top
They're just running out the clock
And the people at the bottom
They're just told to smile

Well I don't wanna smile

And if God takes a million every other day
Then who will care when the getaway driver
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five

Takes five

We need to count the money
But why should we count the money?
What would I do with money?
Don't you think that's funny?

That every time a child dies
An angel gets its wings
When our river runs red
All the choirs sing
I'd go down instead of up
Since I pulled the trigger
But you'd all cash out
Move onto something bigger

I don't want something bigger

And if God takes a million every other day
Then who will care when the getaway driver
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five

Takes five

We'll drive past the ocean
West, out to the ocean
And then north, along the ocean
I feel the ocean

Just a single sharp breath
Before my eyes shut tight
A spin to the left
And everything's alright
A couple seconds down
And a few more gasping
The sound of all our troubles
Finally collapsing
And when the verse ends
All the angels commend

Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave
Good job Dave

Hip hip hooray

And if God takes a million every other day
Then who will care when the getaway driver
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
Takes five
