Breaking out of school
Ain't really fooling no one
I was sure I'd get my reward in timeBacking up the street
With the smell of sweet sensation
Didn't want to be another dimeHidden in the pocket
Of some unfortunate nation
Didn't have no money
Sure didn't have the timeUnfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
But I fought with nothing
But I fought with nothing, nothing, nothingLaughing at the rumor
That you've been screwing someone
Laugh, better cry
It could be your turn next timeBrother what a lover
Beyond the fourth dimension
He's got an ego
That's bigger than yours and mineUnfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
But I fought with nothing
But I fought with nothing, nothing, nothingDon't call me Bwana
Let it settle in your heart
We move from children
Into a business counterpartYour head was shaking
As I walked into the room
A spirit breaking
That's why I feel this wayThat's why I feel this way
That's why I feel this way
That's why, why
That's why I feel this wayBreaking out of school
Ain't really fooling no one
I was sure I'd get my reward in timeBacking up a street
With a smell of sweet sensation
Didn't want to be another dimeUnfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing
But I fought with nothing
But I fought with nothing, nothing, nothingUnfortunate thing
