Bad Blood

(album: About Time - 1989)

I've been running, I've been wild so long
Don't know the difference between right and wrong
Last production of a long hard line
Being born was just the first of my crimes

Roll on river roll on
Nothing stops the flood
Some souls ain't for saving
Can't help being born with Bad Blood

Born in the jungle you've got to fight to survive
You'll never take me dead or alive
Life ain't about living, it's trying not to drown
Gonna rise up gonna tear you down

Roll on river roll on
Nothing stops the flood
Some souls ain't for saving
Can't help being born with Bad Blood

I can see round every corner open any door
I gave the touch to Midas I'll give you anything
To satisfy your greed there's just one thing I need
Everything
Take it

Listening to your conscience gets you nowhere fast
Want to see into the future better look to the past
'Cus I'll be rising when the sun goes down
You don't know me I've always been around

Roll on river roll on
Just can't stop the flood
Some souls ain't for saving
Can't help being born with Bad Blood
