born to be mild (an oldie)

BORN TO BE MILD"


Couldn't get my motor runnin'
Dead out on the highway!
Shoulda bought a Venture
Coulda saved a lot of hay!

Ape hangers got my shoulders crackin'
Put my back in a f*ckin' brace
Tried to start it with a can of ether
Explode in my face!

Well my black leather looks wild
But I walked, walked thirty miles
With a price so high, I
Can't afford to die!

Walked thirty miles...
Walked thirty miles....

I paid something frightening
Heavy metal blunder!
Now I'm racin' for the payments
And my credit has gone under!

Yeah darlin' that's the belt a-snappin'
To the world I'm a-losin' face
Fire all your loud pipes at once and
Explode in their face!

Well my true nature is mild
But I try, try to look wild
On the kind of bike I
Can't afford to ride...

Walked thirty miles...
Walked thirty miles...
