Nervous in the Alley

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She's fifteen and she's leaving home Living on the streets where she don't feel alone Daddy's always gone and Mommy's on the sauce Living in a mansion, it's easy to get lost She's going to a place where they understand Baby on the way, her womb's a garbage can [Pre-Chorus 1] Who said anything about a good life? This one's bad, bad, bad, bad [Chorus 1] Gonzo again Just another entry to a never-ending story Wasted again I think you need a new best friend [Verse 2] Nervous in the alley off the boulevard Shaking all over and the panic starts You see, she needs to get her prescription filled And she knows exactly how she'll be billed Nervous in the alley, waiting for a fix She ain't got no money, just a couple of tricks [Pre-Chorus 2] Who said anything about a charmed life? This one's sad, sad, sad, sad [Chorus 1] Gonzo again Just another entry to a never-ending story Wasted again I think you need a new best friend [Bridge] Who said anything about a good life? Who said anything about a charmed life? Who said anything about a fair life? It's mad [Verse 3] Dying in the alley, waiting for her man Carrying her child and a sleeping bag Shoulda, woulda, coulda never crossed her mind So she passes on to the other side Here he comes, suit, shades, car and a beeper Sugar daddy pimp pushing fucking grim reaper [Pre-Chorus 3] Who said anything about a fair life? This one's mad, mad, mad, mad [Chorus 1] Gonzo again Just another entry to a never-ending story Wasted again I think you need a new friend [Chorus 2] Gonzo again Just another entry to a never-ending story Wasted again She's got herself a new best friend
