PRIVATE EYE Songtext
von Cole Jackson

What do you think?
How many times?
How many times?
How many-
How many times?
How many?


How many times have your private eyes
Been witness (witness) to what′s unseeable?
Leave the past in back, not agreeable
Everything I write moves forward
Use this road as a vehicle
While your lines like The Princess Bride
It's inconceivable! (heh)
Fall back when I spring forward, more seasonal (uh)
How many times have your private eyes
Been witness (witness) to what′s unseeable?
Leave the past in back, not agreeable
Everything I write moves forward
Use this road as a vehicle
While your lines like The Princess Bride
It's inconceivable (alright)
Fall back when I spring forward, more believable

Got- got- got-
Gotta have at least one track with the bounce
Or they bounce
Been knocked on the forty ounce
Knock on the door, I'm chalk on the floor
No answer, shrug shoulder, but to what amount?
They said I′m down for the count
But I′m punching up no punch-ins
You out to lunch if you gonna listen to this and doubt
I've been doing an investigation
P.I. fine dine, then bye-bye your wife?
9-5 your whole life?
TV then bed repeat?
Rather be dead on permanent sleep
Rather be bled on Terminal Ave
Rather be waking up when I am shaken up
Hundreds of memories dead to me
Still gonna hold what I have


How many times have your private eyes
Been witness to what′s unseeable?
Leave the past in back, not agreeable
Everything I write moves forward
Use this road as a vehicle
While your lines like The Princess Bride
It's inconceivable! (alright)
Fall back when I spring forward, more seasonal (uh)
How many times have your private eyes
Been witness (witness) to what′s unseeable?
Leave the past in back, not agreeable
Everything I write moves forward
Use this road as a vehicle
While your lines like The Princess Bride
It's inconceivable (listen)
Fall back when I spring forward, more believable

Want me to trade the delivery?
Like Santa gave Cole to the wrong house
And it caused misery
Gift came, next year nice list kids
Not gonna remember me
Stock of the melody is I have a tendency
To make new enemies
But if you down with the best of me
The next town feelin′ ecstasy
Days off in Ho Chi Minh
I do-si-do your ho again
Bluejay now I'm goin' in
Touché when it hit the bin
Because I spent my whole life on the words I spin
Spent your whole week on a bottle of Henny?
Been there on the daily, too much duppy
Hit the deck alone, like it solitaire?
Under the private eye, what′s left to share?

I′m sorry I interrupted
Daedalus hammer thrusted
And got it cracking on arctic circles
Chronos stay encrusted, but fuck it
I only got that cash from all the vacant flats that I flooded
Innocence now abducted
All the blood that resulted
But fuck it
Head hunted
In the ends they stunted
Vigilante justice but scream of the banshee rusted
Still rush it?
The program over trusted but under funded
He took a smoke from the pipeline and chuffed it
Fell in that gutter, I'm gutted
But fuck it
Move on, fuck it, fuck it
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many times?
How many?
