I’m a Cadillac tramp at the end of his road
A swap meet rat who’s sittin’ on gold yeah baby
I’m a guitar gangster without a tune
I’m the baseball bat that’s waiting to swing
Your loan shark friend with the broker knees yeah baby
I’m a penthouse pauper with nothing to do
Chorus:
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes
The rest of the world passes me by
Nah, nah, nah… I’m just wasting my time
I’m just sitting here and wondering why
I’m the high rollin’ creep that’s in to deep
With the slicked back hair and the silver teeth yeah baby
I’m a vagabond king with a stolen crown
I’m a jailhouse poet, a genius, a fool
I’m the pimp who’s lost his cool yeah baby
I’ve got first class taste in a second class town
Chorus:
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes
While the rest of the world passes me by
Nah, nah, nah… I’m just wasting my time
I’m just sitting here and wondering why yea
I’m a loaded gun pointed at the mirror
A drugstore cowboy whose end is near yeah baby
I’m a big time schemer with broken down dreams
I’m a derelict rebel without a cause
I ain’t the cat with the sharpest claws no baby
Cause sometimes life just ain’t what it seems
Chorus:
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes
While the rest of the world passes me by
Nah, nah, nah… I’m just wasting my time
I’m just sitting here and wondering why
I’m just sitting here and wondering why
And just like you I’m wondering why

I Social Distortion sono una band punk rock formatasi a Orange County, California, nel 1978. Considerati tra i gruppi più influenti della scena punk revival degli anni '80, hanno saputo coniugare l'energia del punk con elementi di country e rockabilly, creando un sound unico e riconoscibile. Il gruppo è guidato dal carismatico Mike Ness, cantante e chitarrista, che ha affrontato diverse difficoltà personali durante la carriera della band, tra cui dipendenze e problemi di salute. Nonostante le vicissitudini, i Social Distortion hanno continuato a registrare e suonare, pubblicando album come *Mommy's Little Monster* (1983), *Prison Bound* (1988) e *White Light, White Heat, White Trash* (1990). Tra i brani più famosi ci sono «Ball and Chain», «Story of My Life» e «Don't Drag Me Down». La formazione attuale comprende Mike Ness, Jonny Wickersham (chitarra), Brent Harding (basso) e David Hidalgo Jr. (batteria).

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
