Loose Cannon

(album: Second Skin - 2001)

A loose cannon can't you tell
You're gonna get a lesson
He'll learn you well
Back off and stay away from him
Outside you're going down
And how ya gonna feel
When you hit the ground?
The bad seed is at it again

The boy is so defiant
Angry young lion
With too much
Hatred from the past
All his aggression
It isn't helping
Him become a man

Na na na na na na nothing
Is ever gonna change him
Yeah and it might
Take a little
Bit to get used to
But he'll stay broken

Out back behind the shed
That's where his daddy
Taught him to hate the best
The education of the heavy hand
The blows were handed down
And it never did much good
For him to cry out loud
The fragile child
Never stood a chance

The boy is so defiant
Angry young lion
With too much
Hatred from the past
All his aggression
It isn't helping
Him become a man

Na na na na na na nothing
Is ever gonna change him
Yeah and it might
Take a little
Bit to get used to
But he'll stay broken

Hey just remember this
The anger's not a curse
It's the greatest gift

Loose cannon can't you tell
Loose cannon can't you tell
Back off
Back off from me

Na na na na na na nothing
Is ever gonna change him
Yeah and it might
Take a little
Bit to get used to
But he'll stay broken

Na na na na na na nothing
Is ever gonna change him
Yeah and it might
Take a little
Bit to get used to
But he'll stay broken
He'll stay broken
Broken
