Johny"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

Look out kid

It"s somethin" you did

God knows when

But you"re doin" it again

You better duck down the alley way

Lookin" for a new friend

The man in the coon-skip cap

In the big pen

Wants eleven dollar bills

You only got ten.

Maggie comes fleet foot

Face full of black soot

Talkin" that 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

Look out kid

Don"t matter what you did

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

You don"t need a weather man

To know which way the wind blows.

Get sick, get well

Hang around an ink well

Ring bell, hard to tell

If anything is goin" to sell

Try hard, get barred

Get back, write Braille

Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you failed

Look out kid

You"re gonna get hit

But users, cheaters

Six-time losers

Hang around the theaters

Girl by the whirlpool

Lookin" for a new fool

Don"t follow leaders

Watch the parkin" meters.

Ah get born, keep warm

Short pants, romance, learn to dance

Get dressed, get blessed

Try to be a success

Please her, please him, buy gifts

Don"t steal, don"t lift

Twenty years of schoolin"

And they put you on the day shift

Look out kid

They keep it all hid

Better jump down a manhole

Light yourself a candle

Don"t wear sandals

Try to avoid the scandals

Don"t wanna be a bum

You better chew gum

The pump don"t work

"Cause the vandals took the handles.
