Commandment 5

[Verse 1]
Can't afford to be late
God's will, take my son
Boy, we must get going
(Cock your arm and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)
Two and three-fourths inches
Underneath my height
If only it were this far
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)
Behind this car
We must push to go downhill
We've rosaries of decades
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)

[Chorus]
Three more inch just to keep between the ditches
Two more inch just to keep between the ditches
One more inch just to keep between the ditches
Keep between the ditch, keep between the ditch

[Verse 2]
Signs are riddled with shapes
I learned as a child
Chalkboards, meet my gun's chalk
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)
Swerve, avoid a groundhog
Lumbering in the road
Buddha-assed soft monster
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)
We stall in the ditch
Brambles, thorns, and groundhog holes
Prison crew's been lazy
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)

[Chorus]
There's three more inch just to keep between the ditches
Two more inch just to keep between the ditches
One more inch just to keep between the ditches
Keep between the ditch, keep between the ditch

[Verse 3]
He collects the spent shells
From our stalled car's floor
And others as we walk home
(Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arms and blindly throw the spent shell)
All our chairs that wobble
He flips, cocks his arm
My gun's butt is his hammer
(Cock your arm and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arm and blindly throw the spent shell)
He leaves home to fix
And then retrieve the car
Saying he will never swerve
(Cock your arm and blindly throw the spent shell
Cock your arm and blindly throw the spent shell)
