Lyrics

[Intro]
You can do it
[Verse 1]
Until the break of dawn
Life, life
Cannot go by the letter
Time, time
Prozac can make it better
Noise, noise
Any kind will do
Can you feel it slip away when it's all on you? (Hey, hey)
Crime, crime
Rockin' like Janet Reno
Time, time
Eighteen and life in Chino
Freud, Freud
All along, it's true
Well, you'll see there comes a day catches up to you, yeah
[Chorus]
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
Knock down the place
You're alone, it's true
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
You gotta keep your head up through it all
[Chorus]
You're gonna bust out on it
Original prankster
Break out, yeah
Original, yeah
Bust out on it
Original prankster
You never stop now, stop now
That's what the main men say
[Bridge]
You can do it
[Verse 2]
You know it smells like shit, god damn
Tag team the Double Header
Son of Sam
Fire always makes it better
Navigate with style and aplomb
'Cause wherever you're at, that's the tip you's on
(Hey, hey)
Lies, lies
Says he's down in the Bahamas
Tries, tries
Bangin' little hoochie mamas
No way
None of this is true
Well, you'll see there comes a day when the joke's on you, yeah
[Chorus]
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
Knock down the place
You're alone, it's true
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
You gotta keep your head up through it all
[Chorus]
You're gonna bust out on it
Original prankster
Break out, yeah
Original, yeah
Bust out on it
Original prankster
You never stop now, stop now
That's what the main men say
[Bridge]
Hey
You can do it
[Bridge]
Dime, dime
So good to see ya
Nein, nein
Don't wanna be ya
Dime, dime
So good to see ya
Nein, nein
Don't wanna be ya
[Bridge]
Crime, crime
Fine sinsemilla
Crime, crime
Fine sinsemilla
Crime, crime
Fine sinsemilla
Well, you'll see there comes a day catches up to you, yeah
[Chorus]
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
Knock down the place
You're alone, it's true
Knock down the walls
It's alive in you
You gotta keep your head up through it all
[Chorus]
You're gonna bust out on it
Original prankster
Break out, yeah
Original, yeah
Bust out on it
Original prankster
You never stop now, stop now
Stop now, stop now
That's what the main men say
