	        Intro.: (Am) 
 
Am 
 Heard of a van that is laaded with weapons 
Packed up and ready to go 
Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway 
A place where nobody knows 
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance 
I'm getting used to it now 
Lived in Brownstone, lived in the Ghetto 
I've lived all over this town 
 
E 
 This ain't no party, this ain't no disco 
This ain't no fooling arond 
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey 
I ain't got time for that now 
 
Am 
 Transmit the message to the receiver 
Hope for an answer someday 
I got three passports, a couple of visas 
You don't even know my real name 
High on a hillside the trucks are loading 
Everything's ready to roll 
Sleep in the daytime, work in nightime 
I might not ever get home 
 
E 
 This ain't no party, this ain't no dico, this ain't no fooling around 
This ain't the Mudd Club, or CBGB 
I ain't got time for tha now 
 
(Intodução) 
 
Am 
 Heard about Houstoun? 
Heard about Detroit? 
Heard about Pittsburgh, P.A.? 
You've got to learn not to stand by the window 
Somebody see you up there 
I've gor some groveries 
Some peanut butter 
To last couple of days 
But I ain't got no speakers 
Ain't got no headphones 
Ain't got no records to play 
 
E 
 Why go to college, to highschool? 
E  		            E4 
 It will be different this time 
E                     E4  
 Can't write a letter,  can't send a postcard 
E 
 I can write nothing at all 
E                    E4 
 This ain't no party,   this ain't no disco 
E                       E4 
 This ain't no fooling around 
E 
 I'd like to kiss you, I'd love to fuck you 
E 
 I ain't got time for that now. 
 
(Intrudução)
