Tenement Funster My new purple shoes, bin' amazing the people next door And my rock 'n' roll 45's, bin' enraging the folks on the lower floor
I got a way with the girls on my block Try my best be a real individual And when we go down to smokies and rock They line up like it's some kinda ritual
Ooh give me a good guitar, and you can say that my hair's a disgrace Or, just find me an open car, I'll make the speed of light outta this place
Mmm, I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free Some same situation, just cuts like a knife When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy, crazy Young and you're crazy Young and you're crazy Young and you're crazy
But ooh give me a good guitar and you can say that my hair's a disgrace Or, just find me an open car, I'll make the speed of light outta this place
