"Fired Up"
============================================
album _I Spent A Week There The Other Night_
(Moe Tucker, 1991)
written by Moe Tucker
Lou Reed: lead guitar
============================================
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
I work hard, get nowhere
lousy job and no one cares
Drugs and crime, flashin' knives
violent people, wasted lives
Go away and don't stop
don't knock, the door's locked
High price won't pay
worry worry every day
Homeless families in the streets
no one help them on their feet
They can't read, they can't spell
what about welfare, what the hell
Close the door and lock it tight
hit the floor, keep from sight
Drug dealers gettin' richer
drug babies havin' seizures
You and me, what I see
living life is when we're free
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
Fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
Go away and don't stop
don't knock, the door's locked

"Fired Up"
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
I work hard, get nowhere
Lousy job and no one cares
Drugs and crime, flashin' knives
Violent people, wasted lives
Go away and don't stop
Don't knock, the door's locked
High price won't pay
Worry worry every day
Homeless families in the streets
No one help them on their feet
They can't read, they can't spell
What about welfare, what the hell
Close the door and lock it tight
Hit the floor, keep from sight
Drug dealers gettin' richer
Drug babies havin' seizures
You and me, what I see
Living life is when we're free
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad
I'm fired up, pissed off
I'm tired and I'm mad.
Go away and don't stop
Don't knock, the door's locked
