Mtv Revisited

well iʼm just a boy with big dreams
and like a dream i wish i could have you every night of the week but i canʼt
so iʼll have to learn to adapt
and although i feel so incomplete all my doll parts are intact
maybe one day weʼll make the MTV
but until then weʼll have to get used to playin for pennies in the street
and theyʼll give us dirty looks
and theyʼll say aboy you canʼt play guitar you better hit the books. better start a family be the man they say you have to be.a
well iʼve been waiting for you since morning Jack
what took you so long were you fuckinʼ around in the back of nothingness
of greed and ugliness
I saw a beggar with a sign in his hand
it said ai fought just to fall so far down i canʼt get back up againa can you spare a nickel or a dime? so i donʼt have to die broke
so i donʼt have to die a joke
so i donʼt have to choke on this noose around my throat
Youʼd better mind your manners and watch your tongue
and if you forget how to apologize youʼd better hope youʼre never sorry again
cause these uniformed men carry silver guns
and theyʼll put a bullet in your head if you donʼt walk and talk and speak and think just like them
