lyrics

You got nothing to lose, and need something to prove
You're on the outside looking in
You got real sharp teeth, in a real big mouth
You're on the outside looking in

You're waiting to see how the wind blows
So you can take it, clean, right out of our sails

With your beady eyes, and your crooked smile
We're throwing a party, you're calling the cops
You got the whitest teeth, and hope to die in your sleep
You're on the outside looking in

You're waiting to see how the wind blows
So you can take it, clean, right out of our sails
You're on the outside looking in
You're facing the fear by owning its space

Like a hunter's dog sniffing 'round in the bush
You kick the bird in the air so they can take a shot

You're on the outside

Had the pleasure of seeing BB first show in RI at Simmons' Farm. Fun seeing the old punks and the new punks enjoying hardcore at its best! Absolute rippers. Can't wait for more! K
