Strain Of Cancer

Verse Well, my lawyer walked in the room And he said, "Sit down, son, I ain't got good news" Well, she's taking your kid away And now you've gotta pay But my boss just cut my hours And I've been feeling weak My baby knows how I've been feeling Yeah, why she wanna do this to me? Interlude (x4) Verse I think she tried to make it work But it was her mama standing in the way Yeah, she never did like my guitar She always called me a mistake But she got a grandchild out of me And some photo albums sitting on the shelf So how mad can she really be? Turns out she's mad, and mad as hell Chorus Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster I'll tear down your house Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer I ain't good for no one else Interlude (x4) Verse And I've been going out at night Looking for what led me astray And I come back with worn out excuses Maybe it's the night that took it all away And I've got next to nothing in my bank account But I've got some friends that bail me out It's a hard life, I tell ya Living hand to mouth Chorus Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster I'll tear down your house Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer I ain't good for no one else Solo (x2) Verse Now I'm walking down North Avenue On a cold, cold day Down below is the Chicago River Down below I think I'd like to stay So I jump right in Cause I don't wanna disappoint no more And all the memories, they turned into nightmares I think my welcome's been well-worn Chorus Yeah, well I'm a natural disaster I'll tear down your house Yeah, well I'm a strain of cancer I ain't good for no one else Yeah, I ain't even good for my own damn self I ain't good for no one else Outro (x2)
