Tryin' To Grow A Chin (Live At The Palladium, NYC / 10-29-77 / Show 1)

Hey

I'm only fourteen

Sickly 'n thin

Tried all of my life

Just to grow me a chin

It popped out once

Yeah

But my dad pushed it in

Tell me

Why did he hurt me

Lord

He's my next of kin

He's a mex I kin

I'm lonely 'n green

Too small for my shirt

If simmons was here

I could feature my hurt

Scared of the future

'N I hope I don't grow

Hey listen

I know nobody likes me

'Cause everywhere I go

They say no

They say no

They say no

Agh

They say no

Now that I'm older

I got a place in the town

Babe

I got a chin on my shoulder

'N it keeps growing down down down

Scared of the future

'N I wish I was dead

Mattie told hattie

Oh

I'd rather be dead instead

S**t

I'd rather be dead instead

Now dig this：

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

Mattie told hattie

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

One more time for the world

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'd rather be dead in bed

Please kill me 'cause that would thrill me

I'm horny 'n lonely too

Mattie told hattie

About a thing she saw
