On a trip to Vegas, to see a punk rock show
We filled up the van, and had a plan
As far as we could go
Pulled up to the corner, and took a shot of Jack
Looked at all the streets, all those lights
But never looking back

Chorus:
I walked down, to the strip
Waiting for a trip
All just waiting for that trip
Up or down, take your pick
Waiting for a trip
All just waiting for that trip

Verse 2:
Caught up in the limelight, I laid down one last bet
Put down all we had, plus the van, and my last cigarette
We showed up with nothing, yet we lost everything
When you bet it all, and take the fall
There is no in between

Chorus:
I walked down, to the strip
Waiting for a trip
All just waiting for that trip
Up or down, I take your pick
Waiting for a trip, all just waiting for that trip

Do you always listen to your friends?
When they tell you where I go and where I've beeen
How I act like I'm so crazy, drink more bottles than a baby
And always get more drunk than I intend?

Chorus:
I'm a psychopath, I'm an idiot
Miss psychologist, I guess that's what YOU call it
So please excuse, all my self abuse
Cuz it's nothing new, I won't stop today

Verse 2:
Don't believe the doctor when he said
If I had another drink I will be dead
How he recomends that I stop, before my liver goes into shellshock
We both know that doctors are just talk

Chorus:
I'm a psychopath, I'm an idiot
The toxicologist, guess that's what HE calls it
So please excuse, my alcohol abuse
I'm always drunk by noon, I won't stop today

And I don't care what the neighbors say
Cuz they all moved away
And I don't care what the doctors say
Cuz I'm a psychopath, I won't stop today.

I got evicted out of every place I lived.

Been kicked out of every band

Got sat down by each and every relative

So many people I can't stand

It's not a problem, just that I have always known

Who to call when I'm not stoned

If I'm a junkie then I guess I always will

Be solving problems with a pill.

Repossessed, my brain has been

Repossessed, my veins have been

Repossessed, my body's all

There was a punk I met one night after a show

A guy I think you all might know

He gets his kicks out of that sex and violence

His very presence was intense

It's been 10 years I said since I have even used

He made an offer I didn't refuse

We had a line or four then this is what he said

PUNKS NOT DEAD JUST REPOSSESSED!
