There's a dark part of town where the girls get down
And I cannot wait for a chance to go, wait for a chance to go
Got my bad luck shoes and every excuse to dance these blues away
Comin' home, I ain't comin' home
Shut up, shut up, shut up

Sit up, sit up, sit up

It's a kangaroo court

A kangaroo court

Shut up, shut up, shut up

Sit up, sit up, sit up

It's a kangaroo court

A kangaroo court



In a dusty room I've come to assume that I've been doomed to lose my mind tonight

Too weak to fight

So I tried to save face and I rest my case

The judge pulls me aside said c'est la vie

Let your darker side come out to feed



Shut up, shut up, shut up

Sit up, sit up, sit up

It's a kangaroo court

A kangaroo court

Shut up, shut up, shut up

Sit up, sit up, sit up

It's a kangaroo court

A kangaroo court





I commit the crime of wasting time 

Always trying to rhyme 

Yes, I am guilty 

But don't misunderstand me 

I admit defeat, then I move my feet 

My history will never be repeated 

I won't ever be repeated 



Shut up, shut up, shut up 

Sit up, sit up, sit up 

It's a kangaroo court 

A kangaroo court 

Shut up, shut up, shut up 

Sit up, sit up, sit up 

It's a kangaroo court 

A kangaroo court
