Lyrics My new purple shoes, bin' amazing the people next door And my rock 'n' roll 45's, bin' enraging the folks on the lower floor I got a way with the girls on my block Try my best be a real individual And when we go down to smokies and rock They line up like it's some kinda ritual Ooh give me a good guitar, and you can say that my hair's a disgrace Or, just find me an open car, I'll make the speed of light outta this place Mmm, I like the good things in life But most of the best things ain't free Some same situation, justs cuts like a knife When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy, crazy Young and you're crazy Young and you're crazy Young and you're crazy But ooh give me a good guitar and you can say that my hair's a disgrace Or, just find me an open car, I'll make the speed of light outta this place Return to album list Return to tracklisting for: Sheer Heart Attack Go to previous song: Killer Queen Go to next song: Flick Of The Wrist
