Looking Over My Shoulder

Lyrics

Wiped out in the city slick
 Another sick rock and roller acting like a dick
 Needing cash, burning through the trash
 That piles up in this place
 And fills up behind my empty face
 Full of things that I'm not to do
 You come over with all of your friends
 And all their opinions I don't wanna know
 And I'm looking over my shoulder
 Booking away with nowhere to go
 I run down to the corner lot
 It's 45 past two, I almost forgot to show
 I got a date to make with Mr. So-and-so
 After which I won't care when you all start to bitch
 And moan about being alone
 You come over with all of your friends
 And all their opinions I don't wanna know
 And I'm looking over my shoulder
 Booking away with nowhere to go
 Well, can't you just leave me alone?
 You've already thrown all the sticks and stones
 You had to send my way
 Well, can't you just leave it at that?
 And spare us both the bother
 'Cause I just bounce back anyway
 I got nothing that I want to do
 More than make another sonic fuck you to play
 Whenever you make my life cliché, so to fit
 In some little box with the all the labeled shit
 You'd say to keep confusion away
 You come over with all of your friends
 And all their opinions I don't wanna know
 And I'm looking over my shoulder
 Booking away with nowhere to go
 You come over with all of your friends
 And all their opinions I don't wanna know
 And I'm looking over my shoulder
 Booking away
