Lyrics

[Intro]

Cop this

[Verse 1]

I'm hot

And when I'm not

I'm cold as ice

Get out my way

Just step aside

Or pay the price

[PreChorus]

What I want, I take

What I don't, I break

And I don't want you

With a flick of my knife

I can change your life

There's nothing you can do

[Chorus]

I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child, yes I am

I'm a problem child

And I'm wild

[Verse 2]

Make my stand

No man's land

On my own

Man in blue

It's up to you

The seed is sown

[PreChorus]

What I want, I stash

What I don't, I smash

And you're on my list

Dead or alive

I got a .45

And I never miss

[Chorus]

I'm a problem child

Hey, I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child

Just runnin' wild

[Bridge]

Just watch your step

[Verse 3]

Every night

Street light

I drink my booze

Some run

Some fight

But I win, they lose

[PreChorus]

What I need, I like

What I don't, I fight

And I don't like you

Say, "Bye, bye" while you're still alive

Your time is through

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child

[Chorus]

Problem child

I'm a problem child (And my momma hates me)

I'm a problem child

I'm a problem child

[Chorus]

Hey (Problem child)

Problem child

Problem child

Problem child

Yeah, you've got your troubles, I've got mine

[Chorus]

Problem child

Problem child

Problem child

Problem child

[Chorus]

Problem child

I'm a problem child

Problem child

I'm a problem child

Problem child

Problem child

Problem child

Problem child

I'm a problem child (Problem child)

Problem child
