Hard Knocks

Appears on:

Buy From ChaosMusic, Sanity, Whammo, CDNow, Amazon

I'm not
always trying to keep me down
keep me crawling on the ground
I can't win
I never seem to graduate
always end up on first base

But it won't fade away
But it won't fade away
you're gonna hear from me

When I'm
standing on my own two feet
always seem to draw the heat
I'm not always taken for a fool
someone else is making the rules

But it won't fade away
But it won't fade away
They're gonna hear from me

I'll admit I feel shaky
but it won't be me
I know they love to see me breaking
but it won't be me

I'm not
guaranteed to make you tough
can't you see I've had enough
I can't win
I never seem to graduate
always end up on first base

But it won't fade away
But it won't fade away
But it won't fade away
But it won't fade away

And they won't break me down
And they won't break me down
(repeat to fade)
