Motörhead - On Parole lyrics

They locked me up, put me away
Said, you won't get out in forever and a day
I didn't know what was going on
All I was doing was looking for fun
Forgot the reason, that's what I'm told
But, you've gotta get it in
Before you get old they thought they had me
Had me for keeps
But they don't know this boy never sleeps
I'm back on the streets again
I'm back on my feet again
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole

I like a laugh, I like a joke
It's not my fault if my sense of humour broke
I tried to tell them I was sick
They seemed to think it was
Some kind of trick
Well alright, I would have done good
If they had listened to me like they should
I wouldn't have this loaded gun
Looking for a citizen to kill just for fun

It's good to be free again
It's good to be me again
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole

Stop me now before I kill myself
Stop me now before I kill myself
Stop me now before I kill myself
Stop me before I kill somebody else

You'd better watch out, you never know
Who's gonna be the next to go
Night's my friend, but it ain't yours
Fixes the odds, evens the scores
Just turn around, I won't go wrong
When he hit's the ground I'll be long gone
They won't suspect me, no not a soul
Cause, I'm a good boy, I'm on parole

I'm raising my sights again
I'm claiming my rights again
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole
I'm on parole, I'm on parole

Stop me now before I kill myself
Stop me now before I kill myself
Stop me now before I kill myself
Fuck that shit, I'll kill somebody else!
