The Fire Brigade (also known as Fire!) is 1926 American silent drama film directed by William Nigh. The film stars May McAvoy and Charles Ray. The Fire Brigade originally contained sequences shot in two-color Technicolor. A print of the film is preserved in the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer/United Artists archives.

I was not never no square
Never turned down a dare
Never had an au pair
Never learned to live life without a care
Never left home without my thousand-yard stare

Never even took an SAT
But still preached to a hundred K
At EDC LV
And you still call yourself an MC?
I was down when it was not yet the thing to be

Never even wore a cap and gown
But still ran a 20-year scam
On this slack-ass town
I see no hustlers when I look around
You could never stoop to the level that I am down

I was not never no square
Wake up with the Manson glare
In my secret lair
I got my own booth
At intensive care
And I don't need no excuse
To shake my derriere

Grandpa used to say
I ain't white, I'm Irish
When him and the Union
Were fightin the tyrants
They stood tough
Knockin out cops and stuff
High school drop outs
Blowing Nazis up

Grandma didn't mob with those clowns
But the dames said she used to be
The funniest girl in town
Smokin reefer with the jazz cats
Till she fell head over heels
For paps

I was not never no square
Always did my best to play fair
And bring enough to share
Sold my wares
To the trippers with the crazy hair
I don't scare
Cause I walk with the savoir-faire

My Mama was a teacher
Taught me all I know today
From the ERA
To the crack motel
I'm a different type of creature
Than my Mama hoped and prayed
But we both cut stakes
When the house of cards fell

She was a triple threat
Actress, dancer, singer
She believed that I could be the Lightbringer
She didn't need no man
Always ran when it hit the fan
Like the cholos in the party clans

She couldn't buy me a car
Or even a bike
Drinking wine all night
With the geeks and dykes
She was a freak for life
So all your square fags
Pencilnecks and hair bags
Show respect or wear toe tags

She was never no square
Never turned her eyes from the truth laid bare
But never stared
Never bought a brand new chair
Never met a load that she could not bear

I'd like to dedicate this song to my family

Little boy breakin on the cardboard
Middle of the sidewalk
Big kids clappin

Found bombin on the shittiest skateboard
Venice Beach boardwalk
Downhill crashin

In and out of all the
Juvenile psych wards
Kansas City punk rock
Street fight freezin

Holding court with the
Wannabe drug lords
Hollywood junk fop
Stage light sleazin

I was not never no square
Lazy as a tortoise and wild as a hare
All the freaks think I'm crazy
With the styles I wear
Even a steak made of rubies
Couldn't be so rare

Live and die never no square
Even when I try I just can't get there
You could say that I ain't like other guys round here
Never had a thought to hang my tie nowhere
In the gutter staring at the sky, mon chere
