The Sporting Life Lyrics

[Intro]
I don't like him
Let’s kill him

[Verse]
Did you see how he looked at me?
What?
One way ticket motherfucker
Let's fuck him first, and then let's kill him
Nah, let’s cut him, and then fuck him, and then let's kill him
Nah, let's tie him up and cut him and then let's fuck him, and then let's kill him
No, tengo mucha prisa, girlfriend
Vamos en tu carro ahora
¡Dame la gasolina!

Callate buitrita
Esta es la propiedad de Crow
[?], cortala, cortala, cortala...
¡Venga!

Let's take him out to the ranch, and let Crow have him
Yeah

Prendele las velas
Oye a la Cuеrva, oye a la Cuerva

Oh, let's givе him to Crow, she like to tie him up there [?] for a while
[?]
Did you hear that?
Ay, que sensitivo, ay moroso
Quisiera llorar, quisiera morir mis sentimientos

Alright let's [?], alright get into the truck
[?], that’s my [?] we’re waiting on, Bobby
Come on, let's fuck him
Oye a la madrina, madrina, madrina, madrina
Quisiera montarlo, montarlo, montarlo

[?]
Ojala que no esté chiquito
Ojala que no esté chiquito

I bet you know it is, girlfriend
So just fuck him with that tire iron
What? Where is it?
In the back, I dunno
Take a lookie
Take a lookie?
Take a lookie
No hay mucho baby boy, ok?
We gotta punish you for that
Gonna take you out to the ranch and let Crow have you
No, let him go for a minute
And let’s see if he runs for it
Ok, you're free to go
You're going [?] Ok?
You got 3 minutes to get outta here
Would ya look at that?
Cut him down, cut him down
No more mister now
[?]
Bing bong, bing bong
That's right baby
Run that stupid, run that stupid out, run that stupid out
That’s my baby now
Bow wow, bow wow

[Spanish transcription needed]
Crow's gonna really fuck you up, [?]
[?]

[Outro]
Doth [?] up at thy command and make a rest on high?
She dwelleth and abideth on the rock
Upon the crag of rock and the strong place
From thence she seeketh prey and her eyes behold far off
Her young ones also suck up blood, and where the slain are
There is she

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
