I was born upside down
I felt my grandma put my feet on the ground
They put a spoon in my mouth
And everyone was shocked to hear me shout

Well, I knew I couldn't take all the dog food that they make
I'd just as soon as put myself on a stake and burn

I saw it comin' around
I saw it comin' around, yeah
I saw it comin' around and so I just, yeah
Shook my head and walked away

I grew up in a town
Where everybody tried to push me around
The girls were all right, but the guys were tough
They always buggin' me with macho stuff

Well, I ain't no stupid fighter; I go for flower power
I've been runnin' every race just to save my face, yeah

I saw it comin' around
I saw it comin' around, yeah
I saw it comin' around and so I just, yeah
Shook my head and walked away

Yeah
Ohh

Well, they try to see if you care
It's just a matter of not beggin' for more
You know it's really suicidal to just give in
With people you can never really be sure

Oh-hoh, when it gets down to this, they'll eat you up
When the words get in your head, they'll stitch you up
It's a saving grace to have enough
When you find yourself in a compromising spot

You should know you shouldn't take all that dog food that they make
You'd just as soon as put yourself on a stake and burn

You'll see it comin' around
You'll see it comin', comin' around when you
Oh, when you see it comin' around you just, yeah
Shake your head and walk away

Yeah (shake your head and walk away)
All right
Shake, shake, shake
Shake your head
Shake, shake, shake
Shake your head
Yes, the one you think with, hoo-hoo-hoo
Oh, come on, come on
Shake your head
All right, yeah-heh-heh
That's good, oh, yeah
Come one
You can do it, baby
[Fading]
