Crew Lyrics by Dessa

A Badly Broken Code

2010

[Intro]
The bartender says "Kid, one day you'll get famous
Which is lucky, 'cause, honey, I hate to say it
You ain't much of a waitress, even on a day shift
Clumsy as you are, it's like we're paying you to break dishes"

[Verse 1]
Now the records break like plates
Wrecking stages state to state
Getting bigger like every day
And they say the game's changing
Doomtree stays sharp, raise a blade up
But 'member when we didn't have a dime to stop on
All night tryna write a decent pop song
Dot-net cause somebody already had the dot-com
Get in, let's go, g'head, c'mon
Boys in the basement, beats through a bass amp
Paper's on the breaks and we're all on the radar now, I guess
Digging in and gaining ground, and yes
No matter where we go, I do believe we're all related now

[Chorus]
There's no love like crew
And that's true, 'cause to me
My friends and my family
My clan is Doomtree
There's no love like crew love
And that's true, 'cause to me
My people, my partners
My plan is Doomtree

[Verse 2]
It's been a long walk and it's a steep hill
No time for small talk, no place for weak wills
You mind your business and you try to stay real
Half Dorothy Parker, half April O'Neal
This rock rolls over, light on the horizon
Real slow strobe, night, day and night again
No time now to wonder 'bout what might have been
Eyes on the prize no matter what the critics think
What's got nine lives and lands on its feet?
The Doomtree Franchise, rep wings and teeth
If the hinges creak, then break the door down
All I need is a beat, a break of four count

[Chorus]
There's no love like crew
And that's true, 'cause to me
My friends and my family
My clan is Doomtree
There's no love like crew love
And that's true, 'cause to me
My people, my partners
My plan is Doomtree

[Bridge]
Maybe ain't a lot
But it's an honest wage
And what we've got
Is what we've made
Maybe ain't a lot
But it's an honest wage
And what we've got
Is what we've made

[Chorus/Outro]
There's no love like crew love
And that's true, 'cause to me
My friends and my family
My clan is Doomtree
