31/32 Lyrics by Jerry Cantrell

Degradation Trip, Volumes 1 & 2

2002

[Intro]
You were voted "Most Likely
To Have Your Name Go up in Lights"
Only took a few years to see that through
Now you're most likely to end up
Dead alone in a hotel room
Thirty-one/thirty-two

[Verse 1]
Roust the boy, smack the wife
Might have one... case tonight
Alcoholic breath, thick drool
Repetitive, belligerent, cruel

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't get away
Oh, oh, no hiding place
The boy hesitates
When grown, he'll make the same mistakes

[Verse 2]
Grocery checkout line
Residing in the welfare file
Child support, don't receive
Mama crying, no relief

[Pre-Chorus]
They got no home
Three kids and on her own
Revenge: his name
Pay back all the pain

[Chorus]
Gut-shot defender, hole inside
Shell-shocked commander, are you all right?
Gut-shot defender, bloodstain bright, hold tight
Shell-shocked commander

[Verse 3]
Age: adult, mother gone
Friends with Dad, don't really talk
Wanted to, now you're a star
Make a living milking scars

[Pre-Chorus]
The boy hesitates
Lost his way
The boy hesitates
First and last mistakes

[Chorus]
Gut-shot defender, fill the hole
There is no commander anymore
Gut-shot defender will survive, yes, I
You are no pretender... no pretender

[Bridge]
You were voted "Most Likely
To Have Your Name Go up in Lights"
Only took a few years to see that through
Now you're most likely to end up
Dead alone in a hotel room
Thirty-one/thirty-two

[Outro]
Thirty-one/thirty-two
Thirty-one/thirty-two, yeah
Thirty-one/thirty-two
Oh, ah, ooh
