You had It Comin'
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Someone givin' you a hard time
You got on the attack
But some never had a chance in hell
'Cause you were on their back
The news spread like a holiday
'Bout your accident
No roses, no wish you wells
That ain't money well spent
I want to know what you were thinkin'
As your walls came down
Surprised eyes of your sacrifice
Or just that you'd been found
If they done to you what you could do
You'd be torn apart
You haven't suffered quite enough boy
But it's a start
You had it comin', comin' to you
You had it comin', really had it comin' to you
My, my, funny time don't fly
When you got you to yourself
And your disease makes you ill at ease
Bad for your health
Then all these questions with your patient replies
Not foolin' anyone
If not for you only strong survive, if they run
You had it comin', comin' to you
You had it comin', really had it comin' to you
Someone givin' you a hard time
You go on the attack
Some never had a chance in hell
'Cause you were on their back
If they done to you what you could do
You'd be torn apart
You haven't suffered quite enough boy
But it's a start
You had it comin', comin' to you
You had it comin', really had it comin' to you
