Demolition Man
Let me loose, I just got back
I was pushed and I got dragged
I tasted mud, I tasted wine
I've kissed the life I've left behind
So say I choose to stick around
I've got news for this here town
I kick the ball, I catch the bus
And raise the roof for all of us
Destination anywhere
So far gone and I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
Steal your car and leave a wreck
Kiss your bride, cash your check
And Tyson plus I'm ripped and torn
Been on the edge since I was born
I kick the jukebox, change the tune
I break the bank and jump the moon
I sink the fleet to catch a buzz
And raise a glass for all of us
Destination anywhere
So far gone, I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
I'm a beast in space, I'm an acid taste
I'm a primitive gong stuffed in your face
It's enough to bring you to your knees
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
I was pushed and I got dragged
I tasted mud, I tasted wine
I've kissed the life I've left behind
So say I choose to stick around
I've got news for this here town
I kick the ball, I catch the bus
And raise the roof for all of us
Destination anywhere
So far gone and I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
Steal your car and leave a wreck
Kiss your bride, cash your check
And Tyson plus I'm ripped and torn
Been on the edge since I was born

So far gone, I'm almost there
Can't you see I can't deny
I'm out of here like I'm on fire
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
I'm a beast in space, I'm an acid taste
I'm a primitive gong stuffed in your face
It's enough to bring you to your knees
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland

Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
Living like a caged-up animal, criminal
Television newsman so subliminal
Bringing down the walls of wonderland
Just another highbrow cowboy telling me
Everything and everyone and all the things I ought to do
Here I am, your demolition man
