I’m a Conservative Songtext
von Iggy Pop

I used to lead a quiet life
In fact, it was a bare existence
I passed out on many floors
I don′t do that anymore

Hello, my friends
Is everybody happy?

Hey, look me over, lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
I like the small black marks on my hand
I′m a conservative

I like the crazy girls that I screw
Hey, hey, I know them all well
And when I run out of bread, I laugh
All the way to the bank
Sometimes, I pause for a drink
Conservatism but ain't no easy job


I smile in the mornings
I live without a care
Nothing is denied me
And nothing ever hurts

I got bored, so I'm making my millions
When you′re conservative, you get a better break
You′re always on the right side when you're conservative
You walk with pride, pride is on your side
(Pride, pride, pride is on our side)
(Oh, boy, pride is on our side)

I like my beer
I like my bread
I love my girl
I love my head

I′m in the clear, man
I'm in the clear
′Cause I'm a conservative
I′m a conservative

I really am
Oh, yes, l am

And it could mean so much to me
If you would only be like me
Yes, it could mean so much to me


Hey, look me over, lend me an ear
I'm a conservative
