My new purple shoes Been amazing the people next door And my rock 'n' roll 45's Been enraging the folks on the lower floor
I got a way with the girls on my block Try my best be a real individual And when we go down to Smokies and rock They line up like it's some kinda ritual
Ooh, give me a good guitar And you can say that my hair's a disgrace (ooooh) Or, just find me an open car I'll make the speed of light outta this place
Um, I like the good things in life But most of the best things ain't free (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) So the same situation Just cuts like a knife When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy (Young and you're crazy, young and you're crazy, young and you're crazy) Young and you're crazy
Ooh, give me a good guitar And you can say that my hair's a disgrace (ooooh) Or, just find me an open car I'll make the speed of light outta this place
