Woke up Screaming - D.O.A.

I don’t really care what they say

I don’t really care what they do

I just know I’m sick of this crowd and of you

The cops they took me and beat me blue

It wasn’t what I was or what I do

It was just being alive on my own side

I took a chance on the other side

Got off this downhill slide

Stopped wastin' my time

Why don’t you?

Had a dream, saw a scheme

Saw a man hang on a beam

Next thing was, I woke up screaming

I wasn’t dreaming

It wasn’t what I was or what I do

It wasn’t anything to do with you

It was just, just being alive

Took a chance on the other side

Got off this downhill slide

Stopped wastin' my time

Why don’t you?
