A loose cannon can't you tell

you're gonna get a lesson he'll learn you well

back off and stay away from him

outside you're going down

and how ya gonna feel when you hit the ground?

the bad seed is at it again



the boy is so defiant

angry young lion

with too much hatred from the past

all his aggression

it isn't helping him become a man



(chorus) Na na na na na na nothing

is ever gonna change him

yeah and it might take a little

bit to get used to

but he'll stay broken....



Out back behind the shed

that's where his daddy thought him to hate the best

the education of the heavy hand

the blows were handed down

and it never did much good for him to cry out loud

the fragile child never stood a chance



hey just remember this

the anger's not a curse

it's the greatest gift of all

loose cannon can't you tell

loose cannon can't you tell

back off,

back off from me
