Spent some time feelin' inferior
|
standin' in front of my mirror
|
combed my hair in a thousand ways
|
but I came out lookin' just the same
|
Daddy said "Son you better see the world
|
I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to leave.
|
But remember one thing don't lose your head
|
to a woman that'll spend your bread"
|
So I got out
|
|
Paris was a place you could hide away
|
if you thought you didn't fit in
|
French police wouldn't give me no peace,
|
just claimed I was a nasty person
|
down along the Left Bank, minding my own,
|
was knocked down by a human stampede
|
got arrested for inciting a peaceful riot
|
when all I wanted was a cup of tea
|
I was accused
|
|
Down in Rome I wasn't getting enought
|
of the things that keep a young man alive
|
my body stunk but I kept my funk at a time
|
