Lyrics: I stole some of your tricks That night you came In 1986 But who could blame me?
I copied all your licks I was so spellbound
But I could not get a pound or an ounce of the feeling of Angst Feeling of Angst
Been to the Mending Wall I Cry For Happy I found the Mystery Spot I live the Lite Life I think I'm gonna bomb But you're not around
And I could not get a pound Or an ounce of the feeling of angst Feeling of angst
No I could not get a pound or an ounce of the feeling of angst (x3)
