Black Sheep Of The Family

I got nothing in my head
Got a floor for a bed
My future's at the bottom of a tea cup

I got a half a pair of shoes
And no time to lose
I'm wondering when I'm going to wise up

So, fortune shine your light on me and my nose
'Cause we need some security
You get a little bad luck
And it grows and it grows
I'm the black sheep of the family

I got half a pound of rice
A beard full of lice
Condition called retrogression

I got a pocket full of dust
And eatin' is a must
If you want to make a good impression

So, fortune shine your light on me and my dog
'Cause we need some security
While other folks are living high off the hog
I'm the black sheep of the family

Don't talk to me about society
You got to play the rules
Or pay the penalty

Because there's nothing to choose
Between a handful of blues
Double indemnity

All the words are wrong
And my shadow's getting long
I realize this song don't mean much

I've got an ache in my head
I wanna go to bed
Tomorrow I don't have to wake up, no

So, wisdom shine your light on me and my knees
'Cause it's true what they say about familiarity
There's nothing good this way
And it's true what they say
I'm the black sheep of the family

Oh my, wisdom shine your light on me and my knees
It's true what they say about familiarity
There's nothing good this way
And it's true what they say
I'm the black sheep of the family

Yeah, yeah
I'm the black sheep of the family
Just me and my dog
Yeah, yeah

I'm the black sheep of the family
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm the black sheep of the family

You've got me on my knees
I'm the black sheep of the family
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm the black sheep of the family
