Everybody chokes When they see someone cut down in their prime It may not show when you look at me But I know I'm in mine I'm potent, baby, I'm potent Dangerous to the naked eye Rest your head on this bed of mother's pride And find out why Don't you wanna take me home? Don't you wanna take me home? Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Bully boys don't bother me I purse my lips and they run away Guys like you who are gentle and true Don't come around here everyday I'm potent, baby, I'm potent Just one swing of me would get most guys smashed But a drop of yours makes me stagger and swerve I guess I'm outcla**ed Everybody chokes When they see someone cut down in their prime Take this plea to your heart - lift me in mine Don't you wanna take me home? Don't you wanna take me home? Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now
