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 a bad reputation, I got no chance of shakin'
Really gets you down when you don't belong
And everyone around says, You
growed
up
wrong
But why do they resent it, I ain't doin' anything
They say that I'm demented and I never could sing
Then 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 a 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 that I'm 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
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 a bad reputation, I got no chance of shakin'
