Scarred For Life

SCARRED FOR LIFE

I grew up fast on a working class street
First thing I learned was life don't come cheap
Technical school it was a waste of time
Makin' robots for some factory line

Got my first tattoo when I was 16
The rebel had lost his teenage queen
I'd taken a stand for an outlaw's life
My ma's words kept ringin', "Angry, you´re scarred for life"

She said you're scarred, you've been scarred
Scarred for life Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred Scarred for life
My reputation it cuts like a knife

I spent some time a guest of the state
I got out and wanted to go straight
People don't forgive, the police force don't forget
I was jailed for crimes I did not commit

I was scarred, I was scarred

Scarred for life Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred Scarred for life
My reputation it cuts like a knife
I was scarred Scarred for life
Been knocked around had a hell of a life
I was scarred Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife

I fought tooth and nail, every inch of the way

I got scars...to prove it

I was in love for keeps that time
But rock'n'roll was still on my mind
She was young and true and so full of life
And the pain cuts deep, I was scarred for life
I was scarred, I was scarred, scarred, scarred
Scarred for life

My reputation it cuts like a knife
I was scarred Scarred for life
Been knocked around I had a hell of a life
I was scarred, scarred for life, scarred for life
Yes I've been scarred, scarred for life, scarred for life

Yes I've been scarred...I've been scarred
Scarred for life
