Black Sheep Of The Family
|
(S. Hammond)
|
|
I've got nothing in my head
|
Got a floor for a bed
|
The future's at the bottom of a tea cup
|
|
I got a half a pair of shoes
|
And no time to lose
|
I'm wondering when I'm going to wise up
|
|
So, fortune shine your light on me and my clothes
|
Cause we need some security
|
You get a little bad luck
|
And it grows and it grows
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
|
I've got half a pound of rice
|
A beard full of lice
|
A mission called retrogression
|
|
I've got pocket full of dust
|
And eating is a must
|
You want to make a good impression
|
|
So, fortune shine your light on me and my dog
|
Cause we need some security
|
While all the folks are living high up the hill
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
|
Don't talk to me about society
|
You got to pay the rules
|
Or pay the penalty
|
|
Because there's nothing to choose
|
Between a handful of blues
|
Double indemnity
|
|
The hour was wrong
|
And my shadow's getting long
|
My real life's a song, don't need much
|
But I've got an ache in my head
|
I wanna go to bed
|
Tomorrow I don't have to wake up, no
|
|
So wisdom shine your light on me and my knees
|
Cause it's true what they say about familiarity
|
There's nothing good this way
|
And it's true they say
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
|
Oh, my wisdom shine your light on me and my knees
|
It's true what they say about familiarity
|
There's nothing good this way
|
And it's true they say
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
Yeah, yeah
|
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
Just me and my dog, yeah, yeah
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
You've got me on my knees
|
I'm the black sheep of the family
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah
|
