Sex, Drugs & Violence

All my life, trouble follows me like a mystery girl
And I’ve been chasing down a memory like a mystery girl
I’ve been getting lost searching my soul all around this town
Took a wrong turn at growing up, and it’s freaking me out
Back at school, it never made much sense
Now I pay, but I can pay attention
Teaching me the hardest lessons of my life
Too dumb to die, I guess
But that’s the way it goes
Sometimes I must regress to
Sex, drugs and violence
English, math and science
Safety in numbers
Gimme, gimme danger
I don't wanna be an imbecile
But Jesus made me that way
All my life I’ve been running wild like a runaway
Wherever the night takes me like a stowaway
Back at home, it never made much sense
Now I pay, but I can pay attention
Teaching me the hardest lessons of my life
Too dumb to die, I guess
But that’s the way it goes
Sometimes I must regress to
Sex, drugs and violence
English, math and science
Safety in numbers
Gimme, gimme danger
Back at home, it never made much sense
Now I pay, but I can pay attention
Teaching me the hardest lessons of my life
Too dumb to die, I guess
But that’s the way it goes
Sometimes I must regress to
Sex, drugs and violence
English, math and science
Safety in numbers
Gimme, gimme danger
Sex, drugs and violence
English, math and science
Safety in numbers
Gimme, gimme danger
Sex, drugs and violence
English, math and science
Safety in numbers
Gimme, gimme danger
