Retired At 21 Lyrics

    Had money in my pocket
    But he had a gun
    How was i to know
    That i was a lucky one?
    You got me through this time
    But my time will come
    When things get wild
    I'll get out from underneath the gun

    You're retired at 21
    Your mind is gone
    Your race is run
    You're retired at 21
    You side with the law
    And the man with the gun

    Lookin' for a thrill
    But it just ain't that easy
    'cause when you move in for the kill
    Got to get sleazy
    The bait'll come off the wild(?)
    Before we crawl all over you
    We've both got power
    And at(?) you'll don't know what i'll do

    Money money money
    'll buy you food into my brain
    But your heart can't even breathe
    'cause your soul's already claimed
    Collecting a scrapbook
    Proud of what you've done
    No more pushing
    Retired at 21

    You're retired at 21
    Your mind is gone
    Your race is run
    You're retired at 21
    You side with the law
    And the man with the gun

    Crapshoot crapshoot
    Don't know what you'll find there
    Don't want no one
    To catch you in a dare
    Your life story is complete
    The clock has got you beat
    You look at life
    Then you turn and retreat

    You're retired at 21
    Your mind is gone
    Your race is run
    You're retired at 21
    You side with the law
    And the man with the gun
