The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Some people ain't no damn good You can't trust 'em you can't love 'em No good deed goes unpunished And I don't mind bein' their whippin' boy I've had that pleasure for years and years No no I never was a sinner--tell me what else can I do Second best is what you get 'til you learn to bend the rules And time respects no person--what you lift up must fall They're waiting outside to claim my tumblin' walls Saw my picture in the paper Read the news around my face And now some pepole don't want to treat me the same When the walls come tumblin' down When the walls come crumblin' crumblin' When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' down Some people say I'm obnoxious and lazy I'm uneducated--my opinion means nothin' But I know I'm a real good dancer Don't need to look over my shoulder to see what I'm after Everybody's got their problems--ain't no new news here I'm the same old trouble you've been havin' for years Don't confuse the problem with the issue girl It's perfectly clear Just a human desire to have you come near Want to put my arms around you Feel your breath in my ear You can bend me you can break me But you'd better stand clear When the walls come tumblin' down When the walls come crumblin' crumblin' When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' down
