My, oh, my, it's been some awkward years
Breakups, failures, unexplainable fears
Friends turned to foes, foes turned to friends
The fighting kept going 'til nothing's left to defend
I was lacking sleep, I was breaking down
I started popping pills although it made me frown
I freaked out, I od:d when I was as most rash
Got paranoid, walked on hot coals, ran out of cash
But I'm back with a vengeance!
Back with a vengeance!
The cheetah is walking the streets again...
Back with a vengeance!
Back with a vengeance!
Lots of excess energy to spend...
Why, oh why? All this stumbling around
Freakouts, crushes, attempts to go southbound
Passion turned bad and bad things turned passionate
So another ride was booked for a notorious crash-magnet
I was jailed, I was fired, really starting to sink
I sobered up, but went back on the drink
I was loving the alien then mourning the loss
Almost went to church and kneeled in front of the cross
But I'm back with a vengeance...
You make decisions, chooses a path
And tries to feel secure
Then the hand of fate is on you now
Like lighting strikes you to the floor!
Not just anybody and certainly no slave
A street walking cheetah, ruthless young and brave!
