Mott - Too Short Arms (I Don't Care) lyrics

rate me

(Morgan Fisher/Ray Major)

Last night I woke up on a subway train

Travelling round and round all night

My head was hurting and my clothes were torn

It must have been a hell of a fight

And you know it doesn't feel so funny

When you're waking up at half past eight

And they've taken all your stuff and your money

And you wonder was it something you said

Yes I know I ain't exactly

A clean livin' boy

Sometimes it just ain't fair

When I get home to you

After all I've been through

You'll only scream and shout

'cos your money's run out

I don't care

If you go to work

I don't care

If you stay at home

But if you go downtown

That you're pulling around

Why don't you leave me alone

You said to me that I'm wasting my life

I've played it just like your fool

You're no give and no talk

I guess it won't get too far

It ain't done me no harm

It don't follow me at all

You said to me that I've been wasting your time

Your gonna find another man

I've had all I can take

Won't you give us a break

I'm sick and tired of people trying to tell me what I am

I don't care

If I go to heaven

I don't care

If I stay in hell

'cos I know that I'm doing

What I really wanna do

And you know that I'm doing it well

Yes I know I didn't love my mamma

I got everything wrong at school

All the touble I had from my dear old dad

Tonight you sit tight I'm gonna give it to you

I don't care

If you go to work

I don't care

If you stay at home

But if you go downtown

That you're pulling around

Why don't you leave me alone

I don't care

I got too short arms

I don't care

I don't care

I got too long hands

I don't care

I don't care

I got too bald head

I don't care
