Don’t let me catch you in my room 
You should learn to walk in your own shoes 
And the fire in your sole will burn you up 
Time slips away when you’re like me 
One year can then turn into three 
So son can you grow and learn to run 
Back into the streets 
And throw it out for free 
I know a place where we can hide 
Nobody’s there when I’m inside 
It’s a place where the time is sure to go 
Back into the streets 
Throw it out for free 
No, I’m not ready yet 
To forget your silhouette laying on my floor again 
No, I’m not ready yet 
To forget your silhouette standing in my door again 
I’m not ready yet 
I’m not ready to forget 
So don’t let me catch you in my room 
There is no telling what I’d do 
I might pull the teeth out of your gums
