It's Hard to Wave in Handcuffs

(or, "What Did I Do?")

(Paul Westerberg)

Sweat poured down his brow

When the temperature is below zero

First guy tries to rob

Turns out to be a hero

He ran, he rid

When the guys said

Just forget it kid

If it's a hood they want,

It's a hood they'll get

This time he is ready

And set

Guzzled half a Coke/Colt

That was sitting on a dryer

In an old laundromat

What do you think about it

When he was through he put the bottle in a jacket

With six more from the rack

Stumbled into an alley

For some fun and money

And some crackerjack

(BURP)

Wipe that goddamn smile off face

I'll pull a hole your wife cant mend

Stuck my gun into his ribs

I'm glad I left the bullets where I did

Just don't say nothing

Don't say nothing

AAAaaaaargh !!

Walked down the street

Snow is falling down

Twenty bucks he took,

Left one buck

'Tip a bum,

It's good luck.'

Bruce Springsteen

Getting his hair curled.

Otis redding

Hanging out the clothes

Wipe that goddamn smile old friend

I'll blow a hole your wife can't mend

I'll shoot your head and rip that chest

U can move in it, just be my guest

Wipe that motherfucker off that

I own that Cadillac

God what did I do

A girl I haven't seen in years

Waved to me

I held my tears

She thought my shirt it must have been stuffed

It's hard to wave in handcuffs
