One nine nine s-s-seven five
Addicted to a drug, gonna keep me alive
Made it through the neon, c-c-cocaine rain
Coming out of rehab just to hit it again
I got time, baby it ain't mine
So much to learn, honey it's alright
Tell your mother what I want you to know
Year of the rabbit, no tricks to blow
Another college dropout, gimme, gimme fallout
A no-net-tightrope, gone on a walkabout
Wait, wait, wait, wait for the blackout
Wait, wait, wait, just waiting for the blackout
Nineteen, seven five, dirty bones, still alive
I know they're gonna give out, waiting for the blackout
Unload, ya know, it's time to live or die
I move move move like a snake in the sand
I'm a high-stakes thief with a perfect plan
I don't expect you to understand
Take a higher road momma, got the soul of a man
I got no time, wish I had mine
So much to do, baby it's alright
Tell your mother's I'm a gospel son
Got a new hand grenade, but he's already won
So gimme your words through your maggot smile
Good luck in those heels on a crocked mile
Wait, wait, wait, wait for the blackout
Wait, wait, wait, just waiting for the blackout
Nineteen, seven five, dirty bones, still alive
I know they're gonna give out, waiting for the blackout
Unload, ya know, it's time to live or die
Uh - 1975
Uh - 19 dontcha gimme no jive
Uh - 1975
Uh - 19 still alive
Uh - 19 still alive
American boy, got no class
Drag your soul down the alley over broken glass, come on
Wait, wait, wait, wait for the blackout
Wait, wait, wait, just waiting for the blackout
Nineteen, seven five, dirty bones, still alive
I know they're gonna give out, waiting for the blackout
Unload, ya know, it's time to live or die
