Bastard on Parade

I've lost all the time that I have in this world I spent it unwisely. Unwisely you see And I can't get it back And I can't move forward I'm broken and I'm empty It's over for me If I could undo all the wrongs that I've caused Fall to my knees pray for swiftness and just For I'm just a fool A fool driven to dust And the world ain't gonna change for me So give me one more chance to prove these problems and frustrations aren't just manifest in memories we're destined to repeat A second chance to prove I know right from wrong I swear I'll do things different but can't promise to be strong So come on all you losers, you bastards and cheats Vagrants and barflies down on the streets Follow this path to salvation vindication awaits We're marching on East Broadway streets tonight If you can look into this old face and try to see the young man I swear I once was pretty, not the monster you now see But I squandered all my chances Lost my faith and took for granted This life and precious one chance the whirlwind I'll reap If I could undo all the wrongs that I've caused Fall to my knees pray for swiftness and just For I'm just a fool A fool driven to dust And the world ain't gonna change for me
