Messages keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving 'round my place
I check my look in the mirror, wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living in a dump like this

I'll shake the world off my shoulders, come on baby the laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up all right

I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction, come on now baby gimme just one look
