lyrics

With a marker in my hand and mischief on my mind
I'm just tagging my name all along the Frankston line
As my hand moves quick across these walls this hoody hides my eyes
Late night passengers they don't say shit we keep our heads down and ride

Write it up
We'll see who owns this train
By tomorrow morning all those motherfuckers in their suits will know my name
Write it up
In royal blue this time
Oh this carriage is a black cheque all I gotta do is sign
On the Frankston line

As we roll out of the city loop the letters loop below my fist
Sometimes I fear that this tag here's the only proof that I exist
I'm not looking for sympathy what's done is done what's past is past
Switch carriages at Richmond get your tag up fast boy fast

Write it up
Text book angry man
To the Dad who left the Mum who drank the magistrate hey this is who I am
Write it up
With the window down I'm flying
If they take me down tonight I guess I'm going down for good this time
On the Frankston line

Richmond, South Yarra, Hawksburn and Toorak fly by
Through Armadale, Malvern, Caulfield, Glenhuntly I ride
Ormond, McKinnon, Bentleigh and Patterson
Moorabbin, Highett, Cheltenham and onto Mentone
And I'm almost home
Parkdale to Mordialloc
Aspi to Edithvale
Through Chelsea, Bon Beach, Carrum, Seaford I leave my trail
Then from Kananook to Frankston ditch the marker I'm almost free
My rubber gloves go out the window now these pigs ain't got a thing on me

Write it up
Solid black and white
I'm not going back to juvi man the boys in there they all just wanna fight
Write it up
Solid work tonight
The only thing in this whole world that I could truly say was mine
Is the Frankston line.
