Well, I win some and I lose some But I lose more than I should And every time the light shined in my direction I just couldn't seem to make good I missed all my shots and I blew all my parts And I wasted all my time No meaning, no feeling No reason, no rhyme Now a**holes live in castles And maggots live in my brain And it just isn't worth the ha**le To continue in this vein Where everyone's searchin' And the whole scene is hurtin' And we're not very good Where the money is lousy And the drinks are expensive And I'm living in a bad neighborhood Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down You've got to do it because it feels good Of course we're all very impressed with your face You've got the sea salt in your eyes You say we're not quite California So when we fail it will be no surprise So easy to toss aside your own perfect alibi It's so easy, you see If you don't stop your hitting If you don't stop your kicking Hell, I may never ever leave Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down You've got to do it because it feels good Am I speaking my mind again? Are you listening to me? Hey, I am talking to you Hey, I am talking to you Hey, I am talking to you Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking me down Don't stop kicking Oh, don't stop your kicking, kicking me down You're kicking me down
