lyrics

Cut.
I can feel it walkin' down the block
Like when I’m movin' movin' movin' I just cant stop
I got everybody tellin' me its time to go
I’m just getting started with my one man show
Ya know I don’t need a reason
Cause it all makes sense to me
I got it all this time.

The boss is shoutin' out a window from a Buick radio
And he’s howling bout a Jersey girl named little Barbie Jo
And she’s got no time for corner boys or preachers in disguise
Who cares she might be fulla shit the music's in her eyes
I don’t need a reason
Cause it all makes sense to me
I got it all this time its mine.

Old lady bag lady beggar man or not
You gotta whole lotta nothin' and a little bit a lot
Somebody sang that whatcha give is whatcha get
But I say steal it from the rich man’s hand
And let the fuckers beg
I don’t need a reason
Cause it all makes sense to me
I got it all this time
This time I’m gonna lose my mind
I get built up just to get knocked down
I get wound up just to get let down
I get fucked up just so I can come down
Beat myself up just so I can throw down and beat down and burn down.
(I got my own reasons.)
