Kid Inside |
| (One time only, if you don’t get it right this time, tough shit, tough shit |
| Everybody ready, tell me when, say when your rolling here, a one, a two, a one, |
| two, three, die) |
| I press my face to the window |
| I ran my fingers through my hair |
| I watched my life go around in a circle |
| And I realized that no body but me cares |
| And I saw the hurt of my system |
| And I felt the madness of our faults conforming |
| And I walked around your house for hours |
| And I could feel that you had me in some kinda of stranglehold |
| And I don’t know why you said those bad things about me |
| Well it must be the way of protecting some kind of crazy pride |
| Yeah you always direct your attention toward others |
| And look you know, it’s so easy to see that my wounds have been open |
| Wide |
| And you can just kid the kid inside so many times |
| You can just kid the kid till he grabs you by the throat |
| And is choking your young ass blind |
| And you just kid the kid till you’re walking on the tightrope in my my mind ?? |
| Yeah, you can just kid the kid inside so many times |
| Well it wasn’t funny, no, when I was bleeding all over the table |
| Yeah, now as I recall, hey it wasn’t funny at all |
| But you kept on laughing, huh, like it was some kind of party, yea |
| Your always looking to belittle someone to make you feel tall |
| Yea well, it’s the same reaction in every situation |
| Do you really think it’s so necessary to be so mean |
| Yeah, and it’s hard for me to justify my position |
| Yeah, when everything that I’m saying can be said bad about Mr. Springsteen, yea |
| Yeah you know |
| Yeah, well I really really am the first to desire you ?? |
| And I feel so badly for his misery ?? |
| Well I’ll don’t throw five dollars, to get into the kitty ?? |
| And I’ll bet my ass that this problem isn’t me |
| Now now don’t get me wrong wrong |
| Hey now don’t you feel sorry, yeah |
| 'Cause there’s no one dead or alive that I’d rather be |
| And I’ve learned to deal with my mortal existence |
| And the moral is, now don’t you go believe nothing that you can’t see |
| Yeah |
| Yeah, and you can just kid the kid inside so many times, yea |
| (Ha ha ha, we’ll keep it) |
