The Black Crowes Sting Me lyrics

If you feel like a riot, then don't you deny it
(Put your good foot forward)
No need for heroics, I just want you to show it
(Now's the time to shine)

Your independence is a half ass deliverance
(Your train has left the station)
The recognition of the same old condition
(Your symptoms showing through)

Well, regardless of the truth
You still act so aloof
In the face of a judge and jury
You got the nerve to say, "Not guilty"

Can you sting me?
(Yeah)
Can you sting me
(Ooh, you want to)
Can you sting me
Can you sting me
(Right to my rotten bones, yeah, rotten bones)

Well, the bell ring out for the crime of the century
(Courtesy of your mother)
Well, the signs reads, welcome to the Valley of Discovery
(Look at what money can buy)

Sons and daughters better open your eyes
(Tell me what you're seeing)
'Cause see your submission is a tired tradition
(It's everyone's sacrifice)

Well, believe in me
I've got nothing up my sleeve
Except this heart and a chip on my shoulder
You see, I'm young and don't like getting older

Can you sting me

(And you)
Can you sting me
(Ooh, yeah you)
Can you sting me
(Sting me, sting me)
Can you sting me
(Sting me)
(Right to my rotten bones, bones, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah)

Ooh, come on, on my sweet little thing
What new things you want to show me today
I got one question, believe it's subjective
What is a wasp without her sting?

I don't mean to sound bitter
But you touch me just like a murderer
Living ain't so easy
When all I want from you is to sting me

Can you sting me
Can you sting me
(Oh yeah, you want to)
Can you sting me
(Alright you want to sting me)
Can you sting me
(Okay, you want to)

Can you sting me
(Want to, want to, want to)
Can you sting me
(Ooh yeah, you want to)
Can you sting me
(Yeah, you want to leave a trap to)
Can you sting me
(Yeah, you want to, want to sting me)
