[Verse]
Bad Behavior - some people write it out on their skin.
My reputation is only as good as the company I'm in.
Always on the wrong side of somebody,
Working two jobs, no money.

[Chorus]
Dead End Dead End Friends
Can't Hold Me Down
Dead End Dead End Friends
Can't Hold Me Down
Dead End Dead End Friends
Can't Hold Me Down
Dead End Dead End Friends
Can't Hold Me Down

[Bridge]
I'm getting out
Dead End Friends

[Outro]
Dead End Dead End Friends
Dead End Dead End Friends
Dead End Dead End Friends
Dead End Dead End Friends
