[Verse 1]
I laughed at the teachers
Who taught in my school
They kept one arm bandits
In the swimming pool
They don't understand me
But they never will
And if was there
I'd be telling them still

[Chorus]
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more

[Verse 2]
I followed the leader
Into her tent
But nobody told me that she owed some rent

[Chorus][x2]
She wanted to love me, I wanted to go
But she taught me things that I needed to know
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more[x4]

[Verse 3]
I talked to my lawyer, he picked up my bail
Won't someone get me out of this lousy jail
We're both in agreement that grime never pays
And I should be out in a couple of days

[Chorus]
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
