I'm A Delinquent

from Song​-​A​-​Day by Bill White

/

lyrics

im a delinquent
but i never broke a law
never gave the cops a reason
to break my jaw
when i graduated college
my professors wished me well
but all the gates were closed to me
except the gates of hell
because im a delinquent

i am anti-social
because society is a fraud
authority is engineered
by the anti-mod squad
i play saxophone in the subway
eat apples off the cart
show up at the movie
half an hour after it starts
because im a delinquent

i never held up a liqour store
never robbed a bank
i always could make money
in a legitimate way
ill be the last man standing
when everyone else lies down
and ill still be here singing
when there is no other sound
because im a delinquent

im a delinquent
but i never broke a law
never gave the cops a reason
to break my jaw
when i graduated college
my professors wished me well
but all the gates were closed to me
except the gates of hell
because im a delinquent
i dont get caught in a snag
because your world is a drag
because im a delinquent
