People Say I'm No Good

People say I'm no good

But they never never do they say

Why their world is so mixed up

Or how it got that way

They all look at me and they frown

Do I really look so strange

If they really dug themselves

I know they'd want to change

Everybody says you're no good

'Cause you don't do like they think you should

Do you expect them

An' do you expect you to act like them

Look at them man

Look at the fix they're in

I don't care I don't care what they say

Just let 'em sit there and burn

The young might not be so dumb after all

An' from the young you might even learn

Everybody says you're no good

'Cause Charles you don't do

You don't do like they think you should

Do you expect them to act like you

Do you expect them

To expect you to act like them

Do you expect to see

Do you expect the fool to see what a fix he's in

Do you expect the fool to see what a fix he's in

In your cardboard houses

An' your tin-can cars

You sit there and you wonder

You wonder where you are

Those diamond rings they're obscene

You sit there and you wonder

And you say who's to blame

Take a look at yourself

Take yourself off the shelf

You can't belong to nobody

With your Can't-Cough medicine

And your wonder drug

You got, more sickness

Than you got cures of
