The police were waitin' when the sun came up
You better move your ass, or we'll really get rough
I never wanted trouble, but I sure got enough
I'm bad at bein' subtle, but I ain't that tough, no
(Just a victim of circumstance) didn't you know?
(Just a victim of circumstance) doesn't it show?
(I'm just a victim of circumstance) wherever I go
Just a victim of bad reputation (bad reputation)
I got no chance of shakin'
Really gets you down when you don't belong
An' everyone around says you growed up wrong
But why do they resent it? I ain't doin' anything
They say that I'm demented an' I never could sing
Oh, everywhere I went I caused them such alarm
You know I never meant to cause anybody harm, no
(Just a victim of circumstance) didn't you know?
(Just a victim of circumstance) doesn't it show?
(I'm just a victim of circumstance) wherever I go
Just a victim of bad reputation
I got no chance of shakin'

I've been laughed at
I've been shut out
But let there be no doubt
Never been afraid of chances I been takin'
The police are waitin' when the sun came up
You better move your ass, or we'll really get rough
I never wanted trouble, but I sure get enough
I'm bad at bein' subtle, but I ain't that tough, no
(I'm just a victim of circumstance) didn't you know?
(I'm just a victim of circumstance) doesn't it show?
(I'm just a victim of circumstance) wherever I go
Just a victim of bad reputation
I got no chance of shakin'

Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
