They made their choices and they'll never know,
What it means to steal, to cheat, to lie,
What it's like to live and die.

I'm beat down and half brain dead
The long lost king of fools
I may be dumb
But I'm not stupid enough to stay with you

That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag, bust it!
