Mediocre Bad Guys Lyrics

don't give me no comic book, sad looks no more
please don't use those same excuses you've used before
mmmmm... mmmmm...
you told yourself so many times it's okay
so eager to try but you just dont know how to come back down
and now...
CHORUS:
(beat me up and bring me down hope that i'll come around, kick me when i'm on
the ground
beatin' me up or bringin' me down, hopin' that i'll come around, kickin' me
when i'm on the ground)
well how about those people i know that you know the ones i mean
not so good, not so bad, only know what they have, and they have only what
they have seen
those mediocre bad guys can really bring you down
they can't be defeated and you know they're never gonna come around
CHORUS:
(beat me up and bring me down hope that i'll come around, kick me when i'm on
the ground
beatin' me up or bringin' me down, hopin' that i'll come around, kickin' me
when i'm on the ground)
well somebody's something was left in the room
and now that it's gone of course we assume
that somebody else needed something so bad
that they took everything that somebody had.
somebody saw him jump yeah but nobody saw him slip
i guess he lost alot of hope and then he lost his grip
and now he's lying on the freeway in the middle of this mess
guess we lost another on just like the other one
CHORUS:
(beat me up and bring me down hope that i'll come around, kick me when i'm on
the ground
beatin' me up or bringin' me down, hopin' that i'll come around, kickin' me
when i'm on the ground)
