Hard Kid Blues
Drove round the corner one night to get my beer and a gang of the poor sods who were unlucky enough
to be born round there gave me everything I needed to write this song. Or is it me that's been lucky? I
dont know. It doesn't seem right that so many people have so little chances...

Standing on the corner
Youre one mean hungry snake
Spitting and smokin
and you aint gonna take
no s*it from nobody
cause you aint got no rules
according to you
the rules are for the fools
And the gristly seduction
to look the part costs dear
Drives a hot one to destruction
And the cops are staying clear
You put up two fingers
At the world that's gone blind
In this urban deconstruction
Where you've been left behind
Hard Kids Hanging out on the street
it's the only game you know how to play
and theres not much chance of finding a way out
not that you can see
and I look at you and see a picture of me
