Verse 2:
I've got a bad reputation in this town
People try to put me down
They call me a loser a no good boozer
and tell me I act like a clown
Break 2:
Now if you don't like my face and style
don't waste time tryin' to tell me how
just show me and get your own bad reputation
Bridge:
Repeat 2nd break and fade out
