I'd Be a Bum
In Alexander's empire; I was a bust
In Cleopatra's desert; I bit the dust
In any reign under the sun; I'd be a bum
In downtown Detroit; all done up in a coat of rust
In the middle of the glittering void: just sitting on the bus
It's just not your idea of fun, but I'd be a bum
I'd be a bum come what may
I'd be a bum from any day
It's clear from Year One
'You can keep the cake, I'll take a crumb."
I'd be a bum!
Cavemen may say; 'Kid, you're crazy."
Spacemen may say; 'Sammy, you're just lazy."
My baby may say; "Hey baby, we're done.'
I'd be a bum!
I'm not saying I don't want the very best for you
I'm just saying I don't want and all the rest is going to have to do
I'd be a bum!
In Cleopatra's desert; I bit the dust
In any reign under the sun; I'd be a bum
In downtown Detroit; all done up in a coat of rust
In the middle of the glittering void: just sitting on the bus
It's just not your idea of fun, but I'd be a bum
I'd be a bum come what may
I'd be a bum from any day
It's clear from Year One
'You can keep the cake, I'll take a crumb."
I'd be a bum!
Cavemen may say; 'Kid, you're crazy."
Spacemen may say; 'Sammy, you're just lazy."
My baby may say; "Hey baby, we're done.'
I'd be a bum!
I'm not saying I don't want the very best for you
I'm just saying I don't want and all the rest is going to have to do
I'd be a bum!
