Lyrics
Sometimes
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.
Someday I'm going to smack your face (X2)
Somebody's going to call your bluff
Somebody's going to treat you rough
Sometimes there is only one way out
I've got to fight
Sometimes 1 get to feel so mean (X2)
Sometimes you look like you're too clean
Sometimes I see the in-between
Sometimes only one way
I've got to fight
You're way past your station Beat you honey till you drop
You're way past your station
It's useless asking you to stop
I got morbid fascination
Beat you honey till you drop
Sometimes you're going to get some stick (X2)
Somebody's standing in our way
Somebody's gonna have to pay
Sometimes there is only one way
I've got to fight
