As Wicked

[Intro: Tim Armstrong]

One, two, three, four

[Verse 1: Tim Armstrong]

I saw an old man on the street

He's in a dumpster, lookin' for somethin' to eat

He moved so slow like a dyin' dream

Like a machinist who got caught in the machine

I saw this lady and she was cryin'

She said it's hard when someone you love is dyin'

I saw this kid who was about five years old

He's in the park all alone, he's cold

[Pre-Chorus]

There's somethin' comin' around

[Chorus]

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be

[Verse 2: Tim Armstrong]

I know this girl, she's barely alive

She's all haggard and she's only twenty-five

She said she's never had a friend before

I said, "Hey girl, I'll be your friend, but who is keepin' score?"

I saw this other little girl on the phone

Her mother comforts her far, far from home

The little girl's very hesitant

Her best friend lyin' dead on the pavement

[Pre-Chorus]

There's somethin' comin' around

[Chorus]

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be

[Bridge]

Na na na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na na na

Yeah

[Verse 3: Tim Armstrong]

I always end up back on the hill

Lookin' down at the landfill

I always go there when I can

My friend Marty said, "Tim, you're a lucky man"

[Pre-Chorus]

There's somethin' comin' around

[Chorus]

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be

As wicked as it may seem

As wicked as anything could be
