Hey you,
Yeah, you,
Come here for a minute, I wanna talk to you.
Mama says you brain dead; bang you head against the wall,
Can't find peace of mind; brain needs an overhaul,
Bonehead, brain-dead, we're all the same,
Can't think straight when your heart is in pain,
Turn around, hit the ground,
Time to lay you burden down.
And don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about either.
You'll never be enough now, might as well give it up,
You're playing 'round with fire if you think that you're tough enough,
Good guys, bad boys, we're all the same,
You can't buy love when the price has been paid,
Turn around, hit the ground,
Time to lay you burden down.
While you're at it, man, lose those plaid double-knit pants.
Nice hair, man,
What colour do you call that?
Don't you forget now that somebody died for you,
I'm telling you the truth, man, I ain't gonna lie to you,
Good guys, bad boys, we're all the same,
"Saved by grace" is the name of the game,
Turn around, hit the ground,
Time to lay your burden down.
