The Hungry Years Lyrics

I grew up in Topeka with a half of silver spoon

I was just another mouth to feed and crazy as a loon

Don't feed me no more shredded wheat don't want no melba toast

I've been feeling mighty low so I've been diagnosed

I was lean I was mean I was under observation I was watching my caffeine

I was poor was insecure I was only acting normal but I was immature

These were the Hungry Years the memories may just disappear

These were the trying times I guess that's how I lost my mind

Well I'll live for the moment until that moments gone

I'll assess the situation before I'm moving on

Don't hand me no excuses don't want no alibis

Don't want no explanation don't mean to criticize

I was lean I was mean I was under observation I was watching my caffeine

I was poor was insecure I was only acting normal but I was immature

These were the Hungry Years the memories may just disappear

These were the trying times I guess that's how I lost my mind

I was lean I was mean I was under observation I was watching my caffeine

I was poor was insecure I was only acting normal but I was immature
