I will go out tonight and beat somebody up
I will go out tonight and stamp on someone’s head
I will go out tonight and earn someone’s respect
I will go out tonight and leave somebody dead

I will walk the streets to see how much they fear
I will go with the boys to have a couple of beers
I will be jostled by someone who’ll wish they never
And I will smash my bottle and stick the jagged neck into whoever

I will prove my strength tonight to all the firm
I will not shake or tremble or hide because this time
I will show I’m not just making up the numbers
And I won’t ever again have to walk at the back of the line

I will comeback tonight and always be remembered
I will sleep tonight having demonstrated my worth
I will wake tomorrow morning as a man
And I will walk to school a leader of this turf
