Hyena

Rancid · Rancid [1993]

I'm money broke and it's no joke

Can't cope use the rope this time

Knuckle up buckle up the ride's getting rough

And I will not loose my mind

I asked em if

I could come in and the first thing they said was no

If I can't come in that means I can't come back

I got nowhere to go



Hyena fighting for a lion's share

Sometimes the lions share ain't there

Hyena fighting for a lion's share

Sometimes the lions share ain't there



Absent from political authority an animal I've become

Total disorder and confusion is the lifestyle that I run

Permit me to do what I want and I will

I'm a nomad to travel

Conrete class

Stone and gravel



Hyena fighting for a lion's share

Sometimes the lions share ain't there

Hyena fighting for a lion's share

Sometimes the lions share ain't there



Every time I turn around it's the same sad story

Getting ganked I wish it would end

In lifes comisary I'm a bad missionary with a wicked message I sent

Fightin' to kill before I lose that shit and that's just the way I wanna live

Who can I trust in a world of greed when

I'm taught to take and not to give



Who can I trust

When I'm taught to take and not give



I'm money broke and it's no joke

Can't cope use the rope this time

Knuckle up buckle up the ride's getting rough

And I will not loose my mind

Permit me to do what I want and I will

Cuz I'm a nomad to travel

Conrete class

Stone and gravel



See there's nothin' you can say that's gonna change my mind

Fuck You!

Sometimes the lions share ain't there

Sometimes the lions share ain't there
