I've been mixed up, cut up So sit down and shut up 'Cause I'm a hard man I was hung up, strung out But I can't take no more junk Even if you can It will beat ya Cheat ya Deceit ya, defeat ya No rocker, bopper Show stealin' teeny bopper Gonna get a thing from me No fat, black Back scratchin' pussy cat Gonna get her claws on me Well they got a scheme To sell you kids The silver screens and glossy magazines Better hold back, good times, strung out, hung up Strong out, picked on, ripped off, kicked out Spit on, set up, ripped off, locked up, sent down Maybe you're as hard as I am Just blow me away
