Eat Dynamite, Kid

It used to be easy to go out in the street
Before public opinion tried to steal my tongue
I made no excuses
I spoke with my feet
And tripped on every vicious word you aimed at me
It’s not alright

I’ve never seen your eyes
The flock are blind
It’s hopeless if we’re spoon fed
The shit that you’re hawking
You’re wasting your life
Resigned to a well placed line
If I fall who will catch me

In cutting prose you’ve conjured up a malady
Received with murderous applause from all the crowd
Don’t speak when you want to
Don’t create
Don’t think
This life is black and white, there’s nothing in between
It’s not alright

I’ve never seen your eyes
You’ve all seen mine
The truth is that we’re spoon fed
The shit that you’re hawking
You’re wasting your life
Resigned to a well placed line
If I fall who will catch me?
