Lyrics

Baby was a black sheep, baby was a whore Baby got big and baby get bigger Baby get something, baby get more Baby, baby, baby was a rock and roll nigger Oh, look around you, all around you Riding on a copper wave Do you like the world around you? Are you ready to behave? Outside of society They're waitin' for me Outside of society That's where I want to be Lenny! Baby was a black sheep, baby was a whore You know she got big, well, she's gonna get bigger Baby got a hand, got a finger on the trigger Baby, baby, baby is a rock and roll nigger Outside of society That's where I want to be Outside of society They're waitin' for me Those who have suffered, understand suffering And thereby extend their hand The storm that brings harm also makes fertile Blessed is the grass And herb and the true thorn and light I was lost in a valley of pleasure I was lost in the infinite sea I was lost, and measure for measure Love spewed from the heart of me I was lost, and the cost And the cost didn't matter to me I was lost, and the cost Was to be outside society Jimi Hendrix was a nigger Jesus Christ and Grandma, too Jackson Pollock was a nigger Nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger Outside of society They're waitin' for me Outside of society If you're looking, that's where you'll find me Outside of society They're waitin' for me Outside of society
