Nice Boys

She hit town like a rose in bloom Smellin' sweet, sweet perfume The color faded the petals died Down in the city no one cried In the streets garbage lies Protected by a million flies The roaches so big you know that they got bones Moved in and made a tenement home I said Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll I'm not a nice boy! Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean Wanted so bad to be part of the scene She met the man and she did the smack She paid the price layin' flat on her back Wanted so bad just to please the boys The ended up just being a toy Played so hard burned her life away Lies were told no promises made You know Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll I'm not a nice boy! And I never was Young and fresh when she hit town Hot for kicks just to get around But now she lays in a filthy room She kills the pain with a fuck and a spoon In the streets garbage lies Protected by a million flies You know the roaches so big You know that they got bones Moved in and made a tenement home Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Na Na Na Na Na Na, baby Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll I'll bet your mamma said, Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys don't play rock and roll Nice boys
