Intro Song: Fishtown by True Crime Guys (soon to be released on spotify)

Lyrics:

Verse 1

He was on his way to meet her

He didn’t know what to say

He wasn’t gonna mess this up

He just got paid

She was on her way to meet him

She knew  just    what to say

This wasn’t her first rodeo

And he just got paid.

 

Chorus:

With Friends like these

Its like placing bets

Welcome to Fishtown

Don’t get caught in the nets

With friends like these

You don’t get what you see

There’s sharks in Fishtown

 They just look like teen(s)(agers)

 

Verse 2:

They stalked him in the shadows

It had to be today

Just before the drugs wear off

Their conscience fades away

And everything that’s left

Is sure to find a way

To make this feeling last

Just one more day
