You must be proud of yourself
Taking a stand against the world
Ruled by man
With your fist in the air

Metaphorically you take on the world
Girl you're like Muhammed Ali
I'm sorry about that
People they're moving around

They're driftin' and driftin'
Around this town
Forgetting their friends
Forgetting their names

Overlook me now
But you can't skip James
I'm sorry 'bout that
I don't mean this to be a shock

I'm telling you honey
'Cause you know it rocks
A smiling sniper taking aim
It gives him pleasure to give pain

In a rude world
It's a rude world
I'm sorry about that
Rude world babe
