I'm money broke and it's no joke
Can't cope, use the rope this time
Knuckle up, buckle up, the ride's getting rough
But I will not lose my mind
I asked them if I could come in
And the first thing they said was no
If I can't come in, that means I can't come back
I got nowhere to go
I'm a hyena fighting for the lion share
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
I'm a hyena fighting for the lion share
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
Absent from political authority, an animal I've become
Total disorder and confusion is the lifestyle that I run
Permit me to do what I want and I will I'm a nomad to travel
Concrete glass stone and gravel
I'm a hyena fighting for the lion share
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
I'm a hyena fighting for the lion share
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
Every time I turn around it's the same sad story
Getting ganked I wish it would end
And life's comisary, I'm a bad missionary with a wicked message I send
If I don't care to use that shit, is that the way what it is
Who could I trust in a world of green?
What I'm taught to take and not give
I'm a hyena fighting for the lion share
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
Sometimes the lion share ain't there
Instead of hating, why don't you try teaching? Kindness through understanding.
Delicious song. The guitar at the intro sounds amazing. The words are good. I guess it's about how impossible it is to get out of poverty.
jesus christ the guy above me is dumb. yea great "guitar" solo dude like totally! delicious.
He's not dumb, he's probably talking about the guitar that comes after the bass, which is still the introduction of this song, dumbshit. Delicious.

It's bass intro. great song
Aww...I'd like to give you a hug Amoeba.
Great song, awesome lyrics. Rancid sold out? Nah, they're still the best storytellers in punk rock.
It's about his nomadic street kid life and the angst it caused. He's "absent from political authority" because he has nothing to lose. He's just some street punk with practically no identity. People were dying all around him... shit happened. When he says "sometimes the lion share ain't there" he means that sometimes he's left without a meal or maybe drugs whether it would've been stolen, given, or sold to him.
Dont you guys think its "Who could I trust in a world of greed?" insted of "Who could I trust in a world of green?" It sounds more fitting to the whole lyric, do you feel the same? great fucking song btw :D
