[Red Hot Chili Peppers - Subterranean Homesick Blues lyrics]
Johnny's in the basement mixing
Up the medicine i'm on the pavement thinking
About the government
The man in the trench coat, badge out
Laid off says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off (pay him off)
God knows when but you're doing it again
You better duck down the alleyway
Looking for a new friend
The man in the coonskin cap by the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills you only got ten
So look out kid
Look out, kid, because it's
Somethin' that you did, kid
Look out, kid, because they keep it all hid
Look out
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talking at the heat put plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA this place called LA
Walk on your tip toes, don't try "no doz"
Better stay away from those that
Carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose, watch the plain clothes
'Cause you don't need a weather man to
Know which way the wind blows, look out kid
Look out, kid
Because it's somethin' that you did
Look out, kid, because they keep all hid
Look out
Looks to me like you did
A little to much hitting kid
You should've took it to the bridge
Before you started to skid, look out, kid
The good god willing
We'll bebop to Bob Dylan
Chillin' 'em, thrillin' 'em
And red hot killin' 'em
Killin' 'em said killin' 'em
C'mon, c'mon
Get sick, get well, hand around a ink well
Ring a bell
Hard to tell if anything is gonna sell
Try hard, get barred, get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army if you fail
But users, cheaters, and the six time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool looking for a new fool
Don't follow leaders, watch
The parking meters, look out kid
Look out, kid, because it's
Somethin' that you did, kid
Look out, kid, because they keep all hid
Look out, kid, because it's
Somethin' that you did, kid
Look out, kid, because they keep all hid
Look out
Up the medicine i'm on the pavement thinking
About the government
The man in the trench coat, badge out
Laid off says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off (pay him off)
God knows when but you're doing it again
You better duck down the alleyway
Looking for a new friend
The man in the coonskin cap by the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills you only got ten
So look out kid
Look out, kid, because it's
Somethin' that you did, kid
Look out, kid, because they keep it all hid
Look out
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talking at the heat put plants in the bed but
