Inna Rude Mood: Music

Inna Rude Mood

(Inna Rude Mood)
2003-11
Scott Carlson
Scott wrote this signature tune to memorialize one drunken night that he spent in jail while attending college at Tufts University.
I woke up in jail with no one to blame
Did some things last night I’d like to reframe
I want you to know, it’s not bad attitude, uh huh
I only do what I’ve done, when I’m in a rude mood

Heard my neighbor’s house rockin’, hot people and cold beer
I didn’t bother knockin’ to spread my good cheer
My neighbor should know, I don’t always intrude, uh huh
I only do what I’ve done, when I’m in a rude mood

Well I drank until I could drink no more
Propositioned pretty women hoping to score
They all should know, I’m not usually this crude, uh huh
I only do what I’ve done, when I’m in a rude mood

LEAD BREAK

Well my neighbor called the cops, they burst into the place
Tried to calm me down, then sprayed all their mace
The cops should know, I don’t seek to feud, uh huh
I only do what I’ve done, when I’m in a rude mood

So now you’ve heard my whole pathetic tale
Please show pity and post my bail
Cause my cellmate sure knows, I’m no bad ass dude, uh huh
I only do what I’ve done, when I’m in a rude mood

How much longer am I going to have to keep my back to this cell wall?
