lyrics

Dunn-Rite Construction

You only asked for a phone book
I never thought you were a crook
We struck up a conversation
Like friends doing coke in a basement

Then you offered me a job
Dropping off contracts in a parking lot
You wanted me to buy my shirts
$56 a pop I guess that works

I could only give you forty
But you wanted more money
I got a ride the next day
To an Arby's in the first state

Kenny Dunn-Rite done wrong again

You showed me your blue prints
I never knew I was part of it
We looked like Richard Gere
And Ed Norton in Primal Fear

You were a minister of the kids
But you stared at the waitresses tips
You wanted me to rent a car
But little did you know you wouldn't get far

She made us pumpkin pie
Then she gave us both a ride
To the house to cash a check
But Sunday's banks don't cash checks yet

Kenny Dunn-Rite done wrong again

Then she drove us to the mall
Kenny's cot was looking small
You wanted money for a phone
But I thought twice and called back home

When I got home I called the cops
Kenny's hotel room was unlocked
Fifteen warrants, denied bail
Convicted and now you're in jail

You tried to buy me a suitcase
Are you still fond of storage space?

Kenny Dunn-Rite done wrong again
