Oh, you dont know the shape Im in

And I hear that thats where shes been? oh!

Out of nine lives, I spent seven
Now, how in the world do you get to heaven
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in

I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough
Now here I am back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go

Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like its one or the other
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in

Now two young kids might start a ruckus
You know they feel you trying to shuck us
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in
