You'll Never Tame Me
Gg Allin And the Scumfucs Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Say that I'm mental, say that I'm sick
Want to put me away, say that I'm not fit
Call me a pervert, 'cause I'm always running wild
Say that I'm an animal, an abortion as a child

You'll never tame me of the things that I do
I'll always be a pervert and I'll always hate you
I'll always be an animal, work myself into a fit

I run with sleazy women and I smell like shit

I'm gonna run the red light, I'm never slowing down
I'll jump, I'll scream, I'll hollar, I'll spit in your eye
I'll break the law, I'll never stop until the day I die
I don't care what you say, 'cause I am I

You'll never tame me, the things I do
I'll always be a pervert and I'll always hate you
Always running wild, sleep with sleazy women
I don't care what you say, I don't care

(spoken word - gg saying various shit during the bridge)

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! The things I do
I'll always be a pervert and I'll always hate you
I'll always be an animal, work into a fit
I sleep with sleazy women and I smell like shit
I'll always be a pervert and I'll always hate you

Say that I'm mental, say that I'm sick
Want to put me away, that I'm not fit
Call me a pervert, 'cause I'm running wild
Say that I'm an animal, an abortion as a child

You'll never tame me of the things I do
I'll always be a pervert and I'll always hate you

I'll always be an animal, work into a fit
I sleep with sleazy women and I smell like shit
