Get Em Up Lyrics - No Fixed Address - Nickelback

His driver's license said James he went by Jim 

A gangster wanna be and baby that was him 

He stole his uncle's 44 last Friday night 

Said if I wanted in we'd have to plan this thing just right 

We'll need the gloves, we'll need the bags a couple masks 

We'll need to steal a car with windows tinted black 

He picked the nearest bank on main and 17th 

We wrote down every line from every movie that we'd seen 

Screamin' 

This is a robbery now get down on the floor 

We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah) 

We want your cash open the safe get off the phone 

Don't be a hero and you might just make it home 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up 

Get 'em get 'em up 

The fresh restored mustang small block 302 

Drove by the bank a dozen times this afternoon 

The only parking spot was half a bock away 

Gave us time to practice just exactly what to say 

Screamin' 

This is a robbery now get down on the floor 

We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah) 

We want your cash open the safe get off the phone 

Don't be a hero and you might just make it home 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up 

Get 'em get 'em up 

Get 'em get 'em up 

The only thing I wish that one of us had known 

That it was Sunday and the god damn bank was closed 

Too bad we didn't see the cops across the street 

We dropped our guns and tried 

to run and there went all our dreams 

Screamin' 

This is a robbery now get down on the floor 

We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah) 

We wanted easy, straight and now we'll never know 

Somebody call my mom and tell her I ain't coming home 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up 

Then get down 

Reach for the sky 

Then go ahead and kiss the ground 

Get 'em up
