Boy is born, crawls the floor   Learns to speak in metaphor   Stalks the ring just like a matador   Then he learns to steal, because he knows the score   Man will see, man will lie   Man will steal what he cannot buy   The only thought, the only guide   I refuse to be identified   Everything of worth I ever had   was taken from another man   You want to learn this way of life so bad   Well, listen up, cause I'm a veteran
