Lyrics

Give it to me

ladies and gentlelmen, may I have your attention please

stop traffic with my fingers up and pistols drawn
I've got something to say to this town
I've grown so tired of the neon lights
same routine and fake goodbyes
I've got to turn it around
a lady steps out of car, starts to raise her arms
with middle fingers stretched out at length
she said the streets of hell are paved with gold
and I'm the guardian of the door
and you can join and have some fun
I welcome one, one and all

(chorus)
give it to me
give it to me
I want it all, yeah
give it to me
give it to me
you cant stop me now


Sayonara sweet Sodom and Gomorrah
I'm leaving the wolves to their prey
I cant afford ya
these lonely hearted soldiers
are racing to judgment day
and if the streets hell are paved with gold
then I can finally afford a home
and living life to pay the rent
and scraping by from check to check
listen

(chorus)

while the city's asleep
we'll escape underneath
hiding fugitives to show me the way
this town was never a home
only lights for a show
and she'll be crying as we're walking away
