TheMungBrothers Don't Step On a Crack

Don't Step On a Crack

I recall school and all those rules
How I loved to break them
I must explode or else unload
That long pent-up mayhem

I reign supreme over everything
Don't ask me to stand back
I took the match one day, to the Lysol spray
Burned down your daddy's little shack

Chorus:
Don't step on a crack
You'll break your poor mother's back
Don't step on a crack
'Cause you can't take it back

I'll tell you now, I know somehow
I'll end up in Memphis
If my luck lasts, my tortured path
Might take me to Elvis

I saw some trash in a magazine
On a grocery store rack
They had the King being very mean
Took back his momma's Cadillac

Chorus:
Don't step on a crack
You'll break your poor mother's back
(You better not be in my way)
Don't step on a crack
'Cause you can't take it back
(I'm on my way to meet the King)

Don't step on a crack
You'll break your poor mother's back
(Who never meant to be so mean)
Don't step on a crack
'Cause you can't take it back

Bridge:
You can't take it back
Whoa, you can't take it back

I'll tell you now, I know somehow
I'll end up in Memphis
If my luck lasts, my tortured path
Might take me to Elvis

I'll shake my head and I'll have a laugh
I'm the old man in black
But I got a sense, I'll be really tense
As I step down to the railroad track

Chorus
