Rancid Junkie Man Lyrics

The common man doesn't suffer pain like this
Only the soul that has never been kissed
Let us adore our beautiful son
He's ridin' on the rivers of Babylon

Bootin' up and shootin' up bring on the brightness
See the son of god is comin' up and I see a likeness
Internalize the lunacy of the misery is showin'
When you're brought up, you're caught up in a system that is goin'

No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you

Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...

Water, water, water, water, I desire
Some parents house is on fire
Oh, slowly the house gonna burn to the ground
The neighborhood will watch without a sound

Will someone be a witness, please tell me that he's crazy
But he's not and they know that and they can't get him cause he's not crazy
Beat him, lock him, knock him, make him wear his authority
Hit 'em, ship 'em, club 'em, submitted conformity

No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you

Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...

My hand went blind, you're in the vein, clairvoyant
You're in the vein, clairvoyant, my hand went blind
I make love to my transistor, my transistor
And my transparency from the balcony
I looked out on the big field
And the big field, it opens like the cover of an old bible
And out come the wolves, out come the wolves
Their paws trampling the snow the alphabet
I stand on my head and watch it all go away

Bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness
See the son of god is comin' up and there is a likeness
Internalize the lunacy the misery is showin'
Your brought up, like you're caught up in a system that is goin'

No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you
No one answers, no one takes that call from you

Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
Junkieman tell me what your story is...
