Dead End Kid

Young boy, say you got a bad attitude
A problem child, a creature of a mis-spent youth
On Monday morning, you're working the protection line
The bossman tells you your hair is way too long
You're a Dead End Kid
But every evening, that's when the day begins
You and the boys kick hard into the heart of town
Cook beer and the girls are so pretty
Party on 'til the dead of night
Nothin' gonna get you down
You want to touch (You wanna touch)
You want to feel it deep inside
You're a loaded gun (Loaded gun)
Oh, life pulls the trigger (Bang bang)
It's shot you down in flames (Shot you down in flames)
Who shot (Shot down) with a bullet through the heart?
But I ain't gonna die. It's just the edge of the blade
Ain't gonna cry livin' close to the edge
But it's hard (But it's hard) labled Dead End Kid
Burned out town where you think you're killing time
Young and restless you need a place to unwind
Everybody says you don't care about nothin'
It's jungle law
You're an animal with its first taste of blood
You want to touch (You wanna touch)
You want to feel it deep inside
You're a loaded gun (Loaded gun)
Oh, life pulls the trigger (Bang bang)
It's shot you down in flames (Shot you down in flames)
Who shot (Shot down) with a bullet through the heart?
But I ain't gonna die. It's just the edge of the blade
Ain't gonna cry livin' close to the edge
But it's hard (But it's hard) labled Dead End Kid
