Now you crust a little but & you stink a little bit
Dip your fingers in the stream & become your cultures shit
Nothing but pure joy in anarchist youth
next thing you know your old discarded missing tooth by tooth
Now shelter to shelter jail to jail
Train keeps moving along whispering your vagrant song
Not the way it could’ve been Not the way it shoulda been
Not the way it coulda ran no no not at all now its

Not the way it could’ve been no no not at all
Not the way shit shoulda ran nothing close at all
It’s not the way things could been no no not at all
Not the way shit shoulda ran nowhere close at all now

Where have all the heroes gone Can’t they hear your vagabond song
Where’s the loves of your homers odyssey?
Hands taken in marriage by scum you cannot see
You curse yourself for walking out but life outside the road is one big fucking lie

its one big fucking lie you can’t deny it honey, it’s one big stinking lie one big fuckin lie baby its one big fucking lie life outside the road is one big fucking lie now

you wake up freezing in the cold chill of dawn
drink some hot black coffee till that squad car moves along
you duck through them alleyways in a life at nightmares head
disturbing all the propaganda them chtristian mothers fed now
shelter to shelter jail to jail Train keeps moving along whispering your vagrant song
Not the way it could’ve been Not the way it shoula been
Not the way it coulda ran no no not at all now its

Not the way it could’ve been no no not at all
Not the way shit shoulda ran nowhetre close at all
It’s not the way things could been no no not at all
Not the way shit shoulda ran nothing close at all now

Where have all the heroes gone Can’t they hear your vagabond song
Where’s the loves of your homers odyssey?
Hands taken in marriage by scum you cannot see
You curse yourself for walking out but life outside the road is one big fucking lie

its one big fucking lie you can’t deny it honey, it’s one big stinking lie one big fuckin lie baby its one big fucking lie life outside the road is one big fucking lie now

doo doo doo… hey bro you got a quarter?
