Well, the kid checked his stance and tightened his pants
And took his first step in the night
Jacko said that he'd fix him up
With a girl who would be alright
Saying, woah oh oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, and he's bustin' loose
Well, he picked him up in his Sandman
They raced every red light in town
Jacko put on a real cool face
But he was sweatin', there were no cops around
Saying, woah oh oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, and he's bustin' loose
Well, every guy is a clumsy poet
And every girl is a beauty queen
And you laugh on the day when they hear someone say
That they're not really as old as they seem
He's got a matchbox of pot hidden in a secret spot
Which they will smoke in the old schoolyard
Well, he's never too sure if he gets stoned or not
But tonight he's gonna try awful hard
Saying, woah oh oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Oooh woah, and he's bustin' loose
Well, he's fifteen or sixteen, he's trying to make the mean team
And Jacko is his man all the way
He'll go for broke when he can, he knows that Jacko's his man
And they both pray that they'll get away
Saying, woah oh oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Well, every guy is a clumsy poet
And every girl is a beauty queen
But now they're fogging up the windows of their friends' parked cars
On the way to their land of dreams
You know what I mean
He remembers the nights when the stars they burned bright
And she let him go all the way
Said, it was different that time, 'cause she said, "Take your time
Slow down and let me show you the way"
Well, the sand was warm underneath where they lay
A cool breeze made the waves dance and play
A band played in the hall, they were loud, it was small
But who listened anyway
And every guy is a clumsy poet
And every girl is a beauty queen
But now they're so caught up in appearances
That they don't really know what they mean, yeah
OUTRO: (## adlib and repeat to end ##)
Saying, woah oh oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, and I'm bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, bustin' loose
Woah oh oh, yeah, I'm bustin' loose
I said a-yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
