Flea - Subterranean Homesick Blues lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus 1] [Verse 2] God knows when but you're doing' it again! You better duck down the alleyway looking for a new friend The man in the coonskin cap by the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills: you only got ten [Chorus 1] Look out, kid Look out, kid, it's something' that you did Look out, kid, cause they keep all hid [Verse 3] Maggie comes fleet foot, face full of black soot Talking at the heat put plants in the bed but The phone's tapped anyway, Maggie says that many say They must bust in early may Orders from the D.A [Chorus 1] [Verse 4] Walk on your tip toes, don't try "no doz" Better stay away from those that carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose, watch the plain clothes You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows [Chorus 1] [Verse 5] Looks to me like you did A little to much hitting' kid You should've took it to the bridge Before you started to skid [Chorus 2] Look out, kid The good god willing, we'll bebop to Bob Dylan Chilling em, thrilling em, and red hot k**ing em k**ing em [Verse 6] Get sick, get well, hand around a ink well Ring bell, hard to tell if anything is going to sell Try hard, get barred, get back, write braille Get jailed, jump bail, join the army, if you fail [Bridge] But users, cheaters, six time losers Hand around the theaters Girl by the whirlpool looking for a new fool Don't follow leaders, watch the parking meters [Chorus 1]
