"Ooh Wee" lyrics - CHUCK PROPHET

CHUCK PROPHET
"Ooh Wee"

I was nine years old in seventy-three
Strung out on Ritalin and color TV
Took the bus each day to school
Nobody made me, I wanted to

I was feelin' good
Feelin' alright
Nobody knew my name at night

Ooh Wee
Show me what you got to see
Ooh wee alright!
Ooh wee
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Ooh wee alright!

Took up with a girL with yellow hair
She had love to kill and time to spare
She said, "We'll sleep alone after we die
Tonight love needs no alibi"
She made me feel so good
I was feelin' alright
Nobody knew my name at night

Ooh wee
Show me what you got to see
Ooh wee alright!
Ooh wee
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Ooh wee alright!

Her mouth spills open like a shell
She's studyin' her fingernails
Piled up like a plate of bones
They picked ya clean and sent ya home

Sometimes you win, sometimes you don't
I watch my dreams go up in smoke
I'm goin' home unsatisfied
I'm goin' home to save my pride

I was feelin' good
Feelin' alright
Nobody knows my name tonight

Ooh wee
Show me what you got to see
Ooh wee alright!
Ooh wee
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Ooh wee alright!

Ooh wee
Show me what you got to see
Ooh wee alright!
Ooh wee
Nowhere that I'd rather be
Ooh wee alright!
