Thank God I was born in a time When something new was about to start Been shut down, I've been kicked around Now there's an A-bomb in my heart And I know that the times are rough But I won't play dead while I'm alive So hang on and we'll turn up the sound Of all the anger in our hearts 'Cause right now under this fevering moon I wanna take you for a ride To the reasons you need, Be it hunger or greed, it's ok Tell me a joke and make me smile Play me the part, be the star for a while Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby Gimme a wink, let me know you're alive Do what you will, we're only here for a while Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby And I know that the times are rough But I won't play dead while I'm alive For I long for the shock and the awe Of speaking plainly from my mind But I know there's a place downtown Where they say there's a bug-free zone So let's go, let's head out tonight And let the words in our minds spill out 'Cause right now under this fevering moon I wanna take you for a ride To the reasons you need, be it hunger or greed It's all and a little bit more as we come alive again Tell me a joke and make me smile Play me the part, be the star for a while Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby Gimme a wink, let me know you're alive Do what you will, we're only here for a while Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby Absolutely no decorum whatsoever, baby It's only ripples in the sand It's only ripples in the sand It's only ripples in the sand
