One day,
I'll stop stealing beer from clubs,
toilet paper, paper towels, light bulbs and even the
cigarette stained rug
One day,
I'll stop hanging in the bars
With the late-night punks and lousy women
And all those toxic hanger-ons
Did you know,
Life is easier than they claim,
When you ain't obsessed with fame,
And the world knows you'll never be tame
When gasoline soaked,
With an open zippo flame,
Livin' life is a no-rules game,
And if I ever step in line I'm to blame.
No, don't wait around for me,
I'm stickin' to the first plan,
It's workin' out for me
No, don't wait around for me,
Still a mess of countries left that I haven't see.
Old friends have grown into American bodies,
Have given up on their hobbies,
And pull me aside and say "Don't you ever change."
An old man,
Took a seat next to me at the bar,
Let me find out who each other are,
And pull me close and go "Don't you ever change."
So don't wait around for me,
I'm enjoying life too much,
I'm self-made free
Nah, don't wait around for me,
Go ahead with your own life,
But me....
Life's blown on mics,
Dive on endless heads,
Play with as much power to wake the living dead
Why I don't fear,
Adrenalize new heights,
I'll make your Monday into fuckin' Saturday Night.
No, don't wait around for me,
I don't agree with the values and interests of society
No, don't wait around for me,
What a decrescendo, Huh?
Humanity
No, don't wait around for me,
You tasted (so warm?),
(That's life for me?)
No, don't wait around for me,
Gotta do my own thing,
I'm self-made free
