Lifestyles

Poison Idea
(album: Kings Of Punk)

I go full speed don´t look back
Do what I feel and live how I want to
Hide in your big warm house, lock the door and dream of more
They say the meek will inherit the earth but who´s gonna pay the tax?
Begging, scraping, sucking my welfare check
Bitching about big brother while big sister scratches my back
hit and miss lifestyle. Down on whats it´s up to be.
Is this the one for me?
I play a rule breaker´s game. This game is called life.
Its not as easy as a cut of the cards or a twist of the knife.
Day to day, hand to mouth
Is that what my life´s story is all about?
Lifestyles of the poor and homeless
I´m drunk and obnoxious and I hate the rich
The seed we planted is starting to show
But we screamed "no future" a thousand years ago
My belief is true, what about you?
I take the good with the bad and the bad with the bad
But I wish the bad would stop
What you practice now is what you preached then
Young and poor. Was told what it was to be
I wasn´t taught how to pronounce "free"
