Bad Attitude

Well I wake myself at daybreak. I drag myself out of the bed.

I prescribe myself some herbs for my body and my head.

Then I drink that muddy water. I crawl out of my hollow log.

I pull on my junkyard boots and I kick the junkyard dog.

Ask me one more stupid question. I will try not to be rude.

But I got a bad attitude.


I know that time is on my side if there's any time left on the clock.

I'm just waiting in the shadows for the other shoe to drop.

And then while the night is falling and while off to sleep you slip.

I plot the biggest rip-off that ever has been ripped

I'm going to steal your legacy if you didn't already trade it for some food

Cause I got a bad attitude












CH:

I've got a nasty disposition. I'm not trying to be sweet.

I'm full of doubt and suspicion for everyone I meet.

Yes I knew your condition when I saw you on the street.

You want to come into my kitchen but you just can't stand the heat.

I've got a bad attitude...A bad attitude.

You might think that I'm just crude

Or perhaps I'm just in some God-awful mood

But it's just a bad attitude


You've been living in this place so long that it has started to make sense.

You sold your soul to buy some toys with no idea of the expense.

And now you say you're a survivor...You're just what you have to be.

If you can say that with your pants down then you're a better man than

me.

Everybody has a reason for doing what they do

And I've got a bad attitude
