MINOR THREAT
- Straight Edge Lyrics / with translationsI'm a person just like you. But I've got better things to do. Than sit
around and f*ck my head. Hang out with the living dead. Snort white shit up
my nose. Pass out at the shows. I don't even think about speed. That's
something I just don't need.
(Chorus)
I've got a the straight edge.
I'm a person just like you. But I've got better things to do than sit around
and smoke dope. 'Cause I know I can cope. Laugh at the thought of eating
ideas. Laught at the thought of sniffing glue. Always gonna keep in touch.
Never want to use a crutch.
(Chorus)
around and f*ck my head. Hang out with the living dead. Snort white shit up
my nose. Pass out at the shows. I don't even think about speed. That's
something I just don't need.
(Chorus)
I've got a the straight edge.
and smoke dope. 'Cause I know I can cope. Laugh at the thought of eating
ideas. Laught at the thought of sniffing glue. Always gonna keep in touch.
Never want to use a crutch.
(Chorus)
