Lyrics

Busted up

I met a sweet young beauty
Dang d’dang
Well I guess you could say that I fell for her
I thought it was my duty
Dang d’dang
To say just how I thought things were
She said
You’re crazy if you think I’ll be your buttercup
And the whole dang thing dang busted up

Well I went to school
Dang d’dang
The teacher said you said you gotta pay attention son
I was no teachers fool
Dang d’dang
I kept on dreaming till the day was done
He said
You’re crazy if you think you’re too big to whup
And the whole dang thing dang busted up.


Well I went to a bar
Dang d’dang
Big Mike got drunk an down fell on his ass.
But I went too far
Dang d’dang
Said do that again Mikey that was really class
He said
I don’t take no shit from no little pup
And the whole dang thing dang busted up.


Well I got me arrested
Dang d’dang
They said that I burglarised the liquor store
Oh but I protested
Dang d’dang
I was with my brother in Oakenshawe
They said
There’s your stupid face on the TV close-up
And the whole dang thing dang busted up.
