[Intro]
My sex and my drugs and my rock and roll
Are all my brain and body need
My sex and my drugs and my rock and roll
Are the only thing that keeps me here
Alright, so take your fuckin' piss-cup outta my fuckin' face
My sex and my drugs and my rock and roll
Are my fuckin' own business
I don't ask her what fuckin', what position she fucks in...
[Interlude]
Get out!
[Verse 1]
I am skin and bones, I am pointy nose
But it motherfuckin' makes me try
It makes me try, and that ain't wrong
I'll tell you why, there ain't no right
Uh!
[Chorus]
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
There's only pleasure and pain
[Verse 2]
And the motherfuckin' bad wind came, blew down my home
And now the green grass grows
Bad wind came, blew down my home
Goddamn goodness knows!
Where green grass grows, there can't be wrong
And goodness knows, there ain't no right
Ooh!
[Chorus]
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
Only pleasure and pain
Ooh yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Interlude]
Ooh, oh
[Verse 3]
Bumped my head, I'm a batterin' ram
I goddamn took the pain
I cut myself, I said "So what?"
I motherfuckin' took the pain
I said "So what?," I can't be wrong
I thought so but, there ain't no right
Ooh!
[Chorus]
There ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
There ain't no wrong now, ain't no right
There's only pleasure and pain
[Outro]
