You know I'm on a slick trip.
I'm always ready to kick ass.
Up on the stage I'm in a rage.
Yes, I'm havin' the time of my life.
Yes, indeed. What a sweet, sweet life it is,
Until some loco two-bit floosie
With a Louie Le-strange.
Ain't good for nothin' but trouble,
They're just two fools livin' up to their names.
And now it's startin' to rain on my parade.
(You) know there's nothin' like the real world
To get me down.
Nothin' like the world outside
That turns me upside down,
Makes me feel like I'm headin' down a one-way, dead-end street.
There's no way out, no way out
Of this living hell.
No way out, no way out
Unless you walk heaven's trail.
No way out, no way out
Of this living hell, livin' hell.
You know I had it made in the shade
Thinkin' that it's not so bad after all.
That's when I woke up, smelled the coffee.
Now I'm back where I started again, yes.
And now it's pourin' rain on my parade.
You know there's nothin' like the real world
To get me down. No!
One is there to lift you up,
One to drag you down.
Now, don't you see
That we're headin' down a one-way, dead-end street.
There's no way out, no way out
Of this living hell.
No way out, no way out
Unless you walk heaven's trail.
No way out, no way out
Of this living hell.
I guess I'll live in hell.
There's no way out, no way out
Of this living hell.
No way out, no way out
Unless you walk heaven's trail.
No way out, no way out
Of this living hell, livin' hell.
You know, I'm on a slick trip.
I'm always ready to kick ass.
