Hard Cases

I was a fighter no one could scare away

Fancied myself as a bit of a tearaway

The harder the cases, the faster the races

The harder and faster we fall

As we get older, the world becomes stranger

I don't understand, understand anymore

Each time I try to act like a man again

I finish up busted back in the can again

The harder the cases, the faster the races

The harder and faster we fall

As we get older, the world becomes stranger

I don't understand, understand anymore

They use you and bruise you and strain you to breaking

Be glad if you leave here alive

You wish you could run but you're trapped in a corner

And duck as the punches arrive

The harder the cases, the faster the races

The harder and faster we fall

As we get older, the world becomes stranger

I don't understand, understand anymore
