johnny's in the basement
mixing up the medicine i'm on the pavement thinking about the government
the man in the trench coat
badge out, laid off
says he's got a bad cough
wants to get it paid off
look out kid
it's somethin' you did
god knows when
but you're doin' it again
you better duck down the alley way
lookin' for a new friend
the man in the coon-skin cap
in the big pen wants eleven dollar bills you only got ten
get sick, get well
hang around a ink well
ring bell, hard to tell
if anything is goin' to sell
try hard, get barred
get back, write braille
get jailed, jump bail join the army, if you fail
look out kid
you're gonna get hit
but users, cheaters
six-time losers
hang around the theaters
girl by the whirlpool
lookin' for a new fool don't follow leaders watch the parkin' meters
