People round me Got a strong feelin' My habits ain't good Guess I'm losin' Some good ol' respect In this neighbourhood
Give me a break Stop complaining so loud As long as you don't know What y'r talkin' about
Won't be long Before y'r gonna find out Y'r local misfit's gonna be A national breakout Gonna prove y'r smalltown Judgement wrong Gonna do a lil' thing To make you feel Proud Proud
Take life by the neck And I won't let go Entertain this mob Like fightin' a bull in a rodeo
I don't wanna be poor I gotta have a job But not like everybody else On the block
Take you by surprise Stop complaining so loud Gonna do a lil' thing To make you feel Proud Proud
Just in time rock turns out to be a way to prove y'r not just a too far gone disconnected dopey nitwit makin' nowhere plans in the basement instead of ... uh...
