Woke Up Screaming

I don't really care

what they say

I don't really care

what they do

I just know I'm sick of this crowd

and of you

The cops they took me and beat me blue

it wasn't what I was or what I do

it was just being alive on my own side

I took a chance on the other side

got off this downhill slide

stopped wastin' my time

why don't you?

Had a dream saw a scheme

saw a man hang on a beam

next thing was, I woke up screaming!

I wasn't dreaming

it wasn't what I was or what I do

it wasn't anything to do with you

it was just, just, being alive.

took a chance on the other side

got off this downhill slide

stopped wastin' my time. Why don't you?
