"Dropped On My Head" lyrics

"Dropped On My Head"

It didn't take long
I didn't get far
Before the cops were told
That I'd stolen the car
There was an APB
Sent out for me
Ratted out by my own
Now I'm a public enemy

But God's honest truth, I didn't do it this time
If I had, then I sure would admit to my crime

See, I'm always wrong in the eyes of the law
Parents and priests say it's the final straw
But sure as the sun, it rises and sets
I'll do it again, it's a surefire bet

I'm a Catholic school kid
I'm an altar boy
I was dropped on my head
Now I'm here to destroy
I'm stone-cold killer
In the CYO
I'm lining them up
And I'm laying them low

But honest as the day is long, that's a fact
I'm not nearly half as bad as I act

See, I'm always wrong in the eyes of the law
Parents and priests say it's the final straw
But sure as the sun, it rises and sets
I'll do it again, it's a surefire bet

Lad, get up now, the neighbors are watching
You shamed our name and now they'll be talking
What happens in the house, stays in the house
And you should do the same

There was an APB
Put out for me
Now I'm down by law
I'm a public enemy

I'm honest as the day is long, that's a fact
I'm not nearly half as bad as I act

See, I'm always wrong in the eyes of the law
Parents and priests say it's the final straw
But sure as the sun, it rises and sets
I'll do it again, it's a surefire bet

I'm always wrong in the eyes of the law
Parents and priests say it's the final straw
But sure as the sun, it rises and sets
I'll do it again, it's a surefire bet
