Gary Glitter - I would if I could but I can't

Momma tries to put me down, Poppa's so annoyed

Every night the girl come around and try to spread a little joy

I wanna be a bad bad boy

I would if I would I could if I could, I would be good

Climbing through the backrom door, sneaking down the hall

Hiding on the bedroom floor, I think I'm gonna have a ball, yeah

I'm only human after all

Mary Jane, my highschool queen, raises eyes of blue

Lindy Lou sweet seventeen, I try to keep her coming through

Oh, what's a growing boy to do

I would if I would I could if I could, I would be good

Candy bars can be so nice, when you're nine years old

Now I want my apple pies for someone I can have and hold

Wanna lose my selfcontrol

Lose my, ugh, I wanna lose my self control, Honey

Momma tries to put me down............
