Steve Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 It's definitely "state". You can hear it clearly in this live performance: - I'd never have got that from the regular version though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texas pete Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Without listening to the song and doing it purely from memory the first thing i said was actually "Look at the situation, they got me facin'I can't live a normal lifeI was raised by the street light" I guess i was quite wrong...

texas pete Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 just listened to it again... I couldnt have been anymore wrong !not only does it show my memory is terrible, but I cant even get close!
