1,2,3,4

Guess I needed sometime to get away

I needed some peace of mind

Some peace of mind that'll stay

So I thumbed it down to sixth and L.A

Maybe a greyhound could be my way

Police and niggers, that's right

Get out of my way

Don't need to buy none of your

Gold chains today

I don't need no bracelets

Clamped in front of my back

Just need my ticket; 'til then

Won't you cut me some slack?

You're one in a million

Yeah, that's what you are

You're one in a million, babe

You're a shooting star

Maybe someday we'll see you

Before you make us cry

You know we tried to reach you

But you were much too high

Much too high, much too high

Much too high, yes, ow!

Immigrants and faggots

They make no sense to me

They come to our country

And think they'll do as they please

Like start some mini iran

Or spread some fuckin' disease

They talk so many goddamn ways

It's all greek to me

Well some say I'm lazy

And others say that's just me

Some say I'm crazy

I guess I'll always be

But it's been such a long time

Since I knew right from wrong

It's all the means to an end, I

I keep it movin' along

You're one in a million

Oo, you're a shooting star

You're one in a million, babe

You know that you are

Maybe someday we'll see you, oo

Oh, before you make us cry

You know we tried to reach you

But you were much too high

Much too high, oo, much too high

Yeah,

Much too high, huh, no, no, oh

Ow!

Radicals and racists

Don't point your finger at me

I'm a small town white boy

Just tryin' to make ends meet

Don't need your religion

Don't watch that much TV

Just makin' my livin', baby

Well that's enough for me

You're one in a million

Yeah that's what you are

You're one in a million, babe

You're a shooting star

Maybe someday we'll see you

Before you make us cry

You know we tried to reach you

But you were much too high

Much too high, ow, much too high

Much too high, much too high

Yeah, yeee, yeah, yeee, igh!

Ow! Much too high

Oh, much too high, ah

Much too high, ah, much too high

Much too high, ow, much too high
