Wish I was a better person With more control Turn the other cheek When the punch comes, roll Wish I was a kinder person Could see the other's pain Not overreact, never judge Shrug off the spreadin' stain
But I'm a howler monkey Moreau's half & half-man A panther with its tail in a trap A pumped up pyramid of pulsing glands
I'm damaged, and I like it It made me what I am I'm damaged, and I like it The rest is just a sham
I'm damaged, and I like it I live for rock 'n' roll I'm damaged, and I like it It thrills me to the soul
Yeah, I told girlfriend I was gonna change Gonna kick the habit and the taste Trust me baby, this time it's real There's a big part of me I've yet to waste
Don't give up baby, don't turn your back I ain't no wailin' lost cause I'll toss the pipe and heal the tracks As long as you don't mind the blood On my hands, drippin' down the back that's right
I'm damaged, and I like it It made me what I am I'm damaged, and I like it The rest is just a sham
I'm damaged, and I like it I live for rock 'n' roll I'm damaged, and I like it It thrills me to the soul
D-a-m-a-g-e-d damaged is what I am D-a-m-a-g-e-d damaged is what I am D-a-m-a-g-e-d damaged is what I am D-a-m-a-g-e-d What I am
And I like it I live for rock 'n' roll I'm damaged, and I like it It thrills me to the soul
I'm damaged, and I like it It made me what I am I'm damaged, and I like it The rest is just a sham
