I'm a bad man.
Not that I want to be
but circumstances and my history have created
a mystery in my mind:
the kind that drives men crazy
searching for Atlantis or Eldorado
and waiting...
anticipating
space ships to come and take me away
but in the meantime
I'll wreck a few bars
crash a few cars
break a few hearts (including mine).
It's a sign
that all is not well in paradise
where I rolled the dice
got bitten by snake eyes
run over by boxcars
flat as a pancake
on the road of life
and the road to happiness will destroy
this bad man...
Well,
maybe
just
a
boy.
