Lenny Kaye - Beggars and Choosers lyrics

Right before the aftermath, I saw where it would end They said it was an accident, I guess that all depends On who you talk to and who you know And where you come from and where… where you go (where you go) In your crowd of pushers and users Takers and losers Beggars and— beggars and— Beggars and choosers Your childhood days are over as you stuff your shirt and say "Made a choice and wrong or right, it's this way I will stay" You'll sell it to your children, you'll sell it to your wife Buying is your business, and selling, it's your life It's your life In your crowd of pushers and users Takers and losers Beggars and— beggars and— Beggars and choosers The vultures are all circling around your window now Scavengers, evangalists will get to you somehow Your mother and your ex-best friend, letters that you never send Your illegitimate children are coming for you now They're always tracking you down, it's looking like a showdown Between revenge and the ends you can't defend Can you try to imagine, a story that has no end? I think you'd better steal it while you still understand it Sell it to one of your friends
