lyrics

School of hard knocks

I’m black and blue
The sound of the gong’s still ringing in my ear
You shout at me but I still won’t hear

My head feels numb
But the pain is slowly creeping up my neck
I’m counted out but I know I will come back

I feel good, as I get back on my feet
Forget the pain, it’s time to bite the hand that beats

Hit me, strike me, bash me, beat me
Scapegoat no longer
You can try, you won’t defeat me
I just grow stronger
I’ll stand my ground
Let’s go and do another round

Another round
And I take another punch right to my head
It’s dark again and I hit the floor like dead

I’m down and out
And I can hear you counting up to ten
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 – I’m back on my feet again

I feel good, as I get back on my feet
Forget the pain, it’s time to bite the hand that beats

Hit me, strike me…

Hit me, strike me, bash me, beat me
Hit me, strike me, bash me, beat me
1, 2, 3, 4, 5

I feel good, as I get back on my feet
Forget the pain, it’s time to bite the hand that beats

Hit me, strike me…

I’ll stand my ground
We’ll go on when I come around
