(joan jett/kenny laguna)
The police were waitin' when the sun came up
You better move your ass
Or we'll really get rough
I never wanted trouble
But i sure got enough
I'm bad at bein' subtle
But i ain't that tough, no
Just a victim of circumstance
Didn't you know
Just a victim of circumstance
Doesn't it show
I'm just a victim of circumstance
Wherever i go
Just a victim of bad reputation
I go no chance of shakin'
Really gets you down when you don't belong
An' everyone around says you growed up wrong
But why do they resent it, i ain't doin' anything
They say that i'm demented an' i never could sing
Then everywhere i went i caused them such alarm
You know i never meant to cause anybody harm, no
Just a victim of circumstance
Didn't you know
Just a victim of circumstance
Doesn't it show
I'm just a victim of circumstance
Wherever i go
Just a victim of bad reputation
I go no chance of shakin'
I've been laughed at, i've been shut out
But let there be no doubt
Never been afraid of chances i been takin'
The police are waitin' when the sun came up
You better move your ass
Or we'll really get rough
I never wanted trouble
But i sure get enough
I'm bad at bein' subtle
But i ain't that tough, no
Just a victim of circumstance
Didn't you know
Just a victim of circumstance
Doesn't it show
I'm just a victim of circumstance
Wherever i go
Just a victim of bad reputation
I go no chance of shakin'
