I’ve been 86’d with my head kicked in
From more places than I can name
I’ve spilt blood on the floor
Just to do it all over again
Beneath the streetlights I wonder why
I’m always chasing abuse
But all I know is nobody got nowhere
From following rules
And you don’t know where I’d go
Just to get to this point here
But I’ll be fine in time
Just gimme the beat & a beer
‘Cause death is certain
Life is certainly not
And I’m out on the corner
I’m out on your block
We can still get together
To turn it around, turn it up!
So c’mon and get loud
I’ve been beat down, battered, reputation splattered
All over Page Six
What can I say? Like the funny page
Got the last laugh & got my kicks
I’m counting scars on the boulevard
But I just can’t count that high
I’d rather live it up then just shut it up
And let it all pass me by
