My father tried to tell me 'Son, just get your feet on the ground
You're in deep way over your head just turn your life around'
Poor mother, all I gave to her was pain - I didn't realize
The last thing I remember was the tears running from her eyes
Somethin' happened along the way - I was a bad child
Somethin' happened they'd always say - I was a bad child
Four, three, two, one!
No! Yeah!
Playin' hockey, drinkin' octane, I didn't care anymore - no
Always runnin' against the grain, I was rotten to the core
I could live forever - until they threw me out the door
I was a sleeping on the floor. Oh!
Somethin' happened along the way - I was a bad child (bad child)
Somethin' happened they'd always say - I was a little wild
I was a bad child, yeah. Go!
