  • Venom radio and venom television
    I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
    Lay the young blue bodies with the old red bodies
    I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone

    With my kid on my shoulders I try
    Not to hurt anybody I like
    But I don't have the drugs to sort
    I don't have the drugs to sort it out, sort it out

    I defend my family with my orange umbrella
    I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone
    With my shiny new star-spangled tennis shoes on
    I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone

    With my kid on my shoulders I try
    Not to hurt anybody I like
    But I don't have the drugs to sort
    I don't have the drugs to sort it out, sort it out
    I don't have the drugs to sort
    I don't have the drugs to sort it out, sort it out
