I had a tension. I had a ten.
I was a better honey so I did it again.
Thought my intentions were better tried to put mind over matter.
I lost my edge on things when I lost my head.
Hey that's what they say.
Don't you know they ain't never gonna help you anyway.
And it's a get together to tear it apart gave my middle finger a brand new
start.
I got a greeting can't say what it's all about but my middle finger is gonna
carry it out.
I got attention. I had a pen.
I made history honey and got "Please do it again".
But there is no chance I'm gonna do it again.
If you missed it the first time,
then it's nine to ten that you will again
and we're back at the end all over again
and then what can I say what can I do to you?
And they say hey. That's what they say.
Don't you know they ain't never gonna but I feel okay.
And it's a get together to tear it apart gave my middle finger a brand new
start.
I got a greeting can't say what it's all about but my middle finger is gonna
carry it out.
And it's a get together to tear it apart gave my middle finger a brand new

I'm on my way. Can't settle down.
I'm stuck in ways of being an ass
And I got a lot of nerve that I'm ready to pass.
I'm on my way. Can't settle down.

I'm stuck in ways of sadistic joy
And my talent only goes as far as to annoy.
I'm on my way.

This is my main offender.
This is what I've got and it
Got me saying - Why me?

I'm on my way. I get around.
Not all too sure about what I do.
Feel like I've got to stop a second just to think it through.
And so I stop!

I'm on my way.
Yeah get around.
Thought it all over and now I spit it out
When I spit, I spit on those that I care less about
I'm on my way.

This is my main offender.
This is what I've got and it
Got me saying - Why me?

I'm on my way.

I used to be the kid who always got caught.
I used to be the one who never let thought.
Interact one bit with.
Intellectual shit, diversity and wit.
You used to be the kid who waited in line.
For an opportunity to waste away time.
Trying to be so cool but no suspicion no clue.
You've been.
Outsmarted - I'm selling you for scrap.
Now I'm the kid who put the shit back in place
and I'm the one who threw it back in your face.
It took a little bit of intellectual shit, diversity and wit.
Now you're the kid who put the "L" back in lame
and you're the one who always fitted the frame.
No suspicion, no clue.
You've been. Outsmarted - I'm selling you for scrap.
You're outsmarted - Yeah!
That's what I said - Yeah!
Only throwing back what you've been putting in my face.

Do what I want cause I can and if I don't
because I wanna be ignored by the stiff and the bored
because I'm gonna.
Spit and retrieve cause I give and receive
because I wanna gonna get through your head what the mystery man said
because I'm gonna.
Hate to say I told you so.
I do believe I told you so.
Now it's all out and you knew cause I wanted to.
Turn my back on the rot that's been planning the plot - because I'm gonna.
No need for me to wait - because I wanna.
No need two, three and too late - because I'm gonna.
Hate to say I told you so.
I do believe I told you so.
Do what I please gonna spread the disease
because I wanna gonna call all the shots for the "No"s and the "Not"s
because I wanna.
Ask me once I'll answer twice cause what I know I'll tell
because I wanna.
Sound device and lots of ice I'll spell my name out loud

Been trying for all my life but I can't add up your subtraction.
Work, eat, play then go to sleep that won't get me no satisfaction.
Gotta find a way out, yeah a way out of this mess.
So sick of trying to make my time last and ending up with less.
I know your way of doing things and it has lost it's attraction.
Why settle for twenty-four when I can have a hundred fractions.
Who knew I'd be the one pulling off the perfect crime.
So here's my new line I'll change your mind and the metric system to time.
Caused trouble all over town and it's bound to start a reaction.
Metric time will come around it's gonna overtake your contraction
I've found a way out yeah a way out of this stress.
I made my time last and it's total success.
Got my way of doing things and it's bound to gain your attraction.
A hundred hours is my supply it's gonna give us all satisfaction.
No doubt I'd be the one pulling off the perfect crime.

Find yourself another girl who will love you true true true.
Find yourself another girl save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
The very first time I fell in love got my heart broken then people would say
when I passed their way
"There's a hot young man going there going there"
"An unhappy lad going there."
Well one day my mother called me to here side said son "why you so blue".
"Mother I lost the girl that I love why wont you tell me what to do"
Mother wont you tell me what to do?
Well she said find yourself another girl who will love you true true true find
yourself another girl.
Save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
I can imagine how you feel my son but throw it out of your mind I'm gonna tell
kinda truthfully
True love is hard to find sometimes its kinda hard to find.
But forget about that girl that broke your heart and try start a new
For if there was a guy for her there's got to be a girl somewhere for you [x2]
You just go on and find yourself another girl who will love you true true true.
Find yourself another girl save all her love and kisses just for you [x2]
Save all her love for no one but you. Ohh another love [x3]

I've been around the world I take credit for the things I've done.
I've done a lot of things and I just turned 21.
They tied me up put red tape around my hands.
I got caught in the web cause I didn't stand a chance.
I can't control the state I'm in - Go back in line and repeat it again.
I said "Please Mr. Doctor" won't you cure my disease.
I got a sore throat and I got scrubs on my knees.
No matter what I do I can't get it straight.
I tried to sort things out but I'm still stuck in the state.
I can't control the state I'm in - Go back in line and repeat it again.
Can't control the state I'm in - Go back in line repeat again.
I'm gonna lie, I'm gonna cheat.
I'm gonna follow their lead then skip a beat.
I'm gonna lie, I'm gonna cheat and if that don't do it I don't know what will.
I'm gonna lie I'm gonna cheat.
I'm gonna follow their lead then skip a beat. I'm gonna lie,
I'm gonna cheat.

Do you know the secret hand shake - you best use it.
Here they come with ringing ears - social misfits.
Someone has got to go
just thought you should know and so it had to be
the one who held the key.
Check the time T-5 and you're still looking.
Too good to be true - so what's the secret.
Someone has got to go
just thought you should know and so it had to be

This time you got it all figured out.
Think it's gonna work okay but I'll make sure it won't cause I'll be standing in
your way.
So wait a minute if you will.
I ain't got no time but time to kill.
When the ground starts getting hot it doesn't matter if you run or not.
This time you've seen it done before.
This time you're gonna get it right.
Once more you fail miserably and then,
then you do it all over again.
So wait a minute if you will.
I ain't got no time but time to kill.
When the ground starts getting hot it doesn't matter if you run or not.
You're once a failure and twice a fool.
I will - knock knock.
If you won't - knock knock.
You're damned - knock knock.
If you don't - knock knock.
You did fine - knock knock.
Now you're mine - knock knock.
You avoided everything except for me.
I'm busting in won't pick the lock I'm busting in - knock knock.
I've seen your sort before.
You are nothing new cause my name is failure and failure is gonna come to you.
Save me lord and I will.
This time I got the time to kill.
When the ground starts getting hot it doesn't matter if you run or not.
You're once a failure and twice a fool.
I will - knock knock.
If you won't - knock knock.
You're damned - knock knock.
If you don't - knock knock.
You did fine - knock knock.
Now you're mine - knock knock.
You avoided everything except for me.
I'm busting in won't pick the lock I'm busting in - knock knock.

My boss he's a probable bore.
Put me hands and knees on scrubable floor.
Do it right receive the lions share bliss.
Know all too well just where that ration is.
Learned a lot about the company doe.
Learned less about receiving it though.
Saw how it came to those who always sat pretty.
Don't need it.
Supply and demand.
My girl had a probable cause or so she said and took a probable pause.
I was dumped for occupying her time.
I asked her why and what was next in line.
She said "Shiny hair that's my life ambition
but I'll devote my time to a new omission the rizzle-razzle kitsch of paranoid
city".
Don't need it.
Supply and demand.
