Turning A New Leaf Lyrics - Malice In Wonderland - Nazareth

Dragged up, raised tough 

Born a mistake 

Learned fast the golden rule 

Never give, just take 

Did no favors, gave no quarter 

You all know the story 'bout 

The lamb's Broadway slaughter 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Street wise, cat's eyes 

Show business smile 

Lookin' for today's mark 

On the golden mile 

Book wise, movie eyes 

So cool dudes 

Ain't gonna do no talking 

When they find out they been used 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Got to take some time 

Go through the changes 

My whole life needs some rearrangin' 

Self-styled reject 

Ambitious wisher 

Also ran lifestyle 

Guaranteed user 

Like a campaign promise from a three time loser 

Got to make my move soon 

Because beggars can't be choosers 

So I'm 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf 

Turning a new leaf
