Well I was walkin' for some time When I came across this sign Sayin' "who are you and where are you from?" We don’t like when visitors come. 'No trespassing' that’s what it said At least that’s what I could read. No trespassing? yeah, my ass! Wait till ya get a load of me! One day I was trippin' and that’s when I could see That the ether I had tapped into could be reality It was great, that’s when I climbed that optimistic vine Once I hit that mountain peak I began to lose my mind I don’t need no sympathy. I won’t cry and whine. Life’s my light and liberty And I’ll shine when I wanna shine. Make their faces crack There’s no turning back. Let’s go! Well I was walkin' for some time When I came across this sign Sayin' "who are you and where are you from? " We don’t like when visitors come. 'No trespassing' that’s what it said At least that’s what I could read. No trespassing? yeah, my ass! Wait till ya get a load of me! I ain’t got B-S in my bag That’s the one thing you can believe My heart is gold, my body is lax Come on baby, can’t you see? Well I was walkin' for some time When I came across this sign Sayin' "who are you and where are you from?" We don’t like when visitors come. 'No trespassing' that’s what it said At least that’s what I could read. No trespassing? yeah, my ass! Wait till ya get a load of me! Wait till ya get a load of me!
