Lyrics for Clean-Cut Kid by BOB DYLAN:
| | | Artist: | BOB DYLAN |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Clean-Cut Kid | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 151 | | | | Lyrics: | Everybody's asking why he couldn't adjust
Adjust to what, a dream that bust ?
They took
a clean-cut kid
And they made a killer out of him
That's what they did.
They said
what's up is down, they said what isn't is
They put ideas in his head that he thought were
his.
They took a clean-cut kid
But they made a killer out of him
That's what they
did.
He was on the baseball team, he was in the marching band
When he was ten years old
he had a watermelon stand.
He was a clean-cut kid
And they made a killer out of
him
That's what they did.
They said, "Listen boy, you're just a pup"
They sent him
to a napalm health spa to shape up.
They gave him dope to smoke, drinks and pills
A
jeep to drive, blood to spill.
They said "Congratulation, you got what it takes"
They
sent him back into the race without any brakes.
They took a clean-cut kid
But they made
a killer out of him
That's what they did.
He bought the American dream but it put him
in doubt
Only game he could play was Russian roulette.
He drank Coca-Cola, he was
eating Wonder Bread
He ate Burger Kings, he was well fed.
He went to Hollywood to see
Peter O'Toole
He stole a Rolls Royce and drove in a swimming pool.
They took a
clean-cut kid
But they made a killer out of him
That's what they did.
He could've
sold insurance, owned a restaurant or bar
He could've been an accountant or a tennis
star.
He was wearing boxing gloves, took a dive one day
Off the Golden Gate Bridge into
China Bay.
His mama walks the floor, his daddy weeps and moans
They gotta sleep
together in a home they don't own. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
