I never promised you shit I never promised you nothing We never celebrate My black old heart We ain't never worn out These black old jeans If you wanted a mess You should have got here quick I never promised you nothing I never celebrate Flypaper for freaks! I never promised you rock and roll Was ever mean't to be good Well did we ever take a risk Like I knew we should We never paid the rent 'Cause baby we don'\t need to All the egss were scrambled You were my cover girl I never promised you nothing I never celebrate Flypaper for freaks! You never had it so good You never had it so good You never had it so good You never had it so good You never give it away You want some of my chewing gum? You wanna drive in my car? I never promised you nothing I never celebrate Flypaper for freaks!
