People wanna meet ya, They really wanna love ya, At first they think you’re witty and cool, You flit around at parties, Actin’ like a hottie, Ya set ‘em up ‘n’ take ‘em to school, All that sexy action, Is only a distraction, So guys won’t know you’re messin’ their mind, You turn ’em into dreamers, Then take ’em to the cleaners, You leave ’em in a helluva bind, (Chorus) Aw, ya lie and ya lie, And I’m fit to be tied, Ain’t no point in talkin’ to you, I try and I try, But I’m fit to be tied , You oughta be locked in a zoo, Oh-oh-oh, I’m fit to be tied, Gonna cut the knots you got me in, Run girl, but you can’t hide If she ain’t bein’ snotty, She’s probably bein’ naughty, Her moods are just a roll of the dice, She’s never gonna love me, She’s never gonna leave me I feel like my head’s in a vice, (Chorus)

You thought you had a foolproof plan, An airtight little smuggler scam, Skate with millions in a walk, As long as no one ever talked, And no one knew a thing besides your girl, But she got busted at the border, Wore a wire made to order, Now your words’re burnin’ your whole world, (Chorus) Well, if ya can't do the time, baby, Don't do the crime, And don't bother cryin' to me, When yer deal goes down, Aw, she seemed like such a stand-up woman, Ya never saw betrayal comin', But when a dope dog name of Lady, Sniffed her bag and went half crazy, She laid out all your business to the Man, She went to work for the DEA, Got you on tape the following day, They locked you up and held ya without bail, (Chorus) Some guys got no business takin' chances, Oughta stay away from all those risky circumstances, You got hit with a hundred months, Prison bound, the whole world sucks, Then your woman got probation, She free to move around the nation, And ya feel like you're gonna lose your mind, She sends ya postcards now and then, From Acapulco, Rome, and Cannes, With a smiley face she drew to rub it in,

"The sound is precise, and it slices (as the best Italian caterer does with the mortadella)." Voix De Grenoble

"Extra Credit's momentum doesn’t fade until the last chord rings out on the final track." NeuFutur Magazine

"If you aren't singing along to tracks like "Broken Record" your dead inside and need to take a close look at yourself as a human, 8.5/10" Bloggin Rotten
