Lyrics
ROLL THE CREDITS
some people tell me
I've gone way over board
lost my sense of judgement
once a slave
now a whore
found myself in agony
banging on the door
go break yo self
go lose yourself
no not anymore
I raised my hand in anger
fury filled the lonely streets
i clenched my hands
Sudden thunder
brought my body to it's feet
and i said
baby baby
i got just what you need
so why you like to cut me up
stand there and watch me bleed
bits and pieces of me on the floor
you'll be sweeping up what's left of me
dripping out the door- oohhh
dripping out the door- ohhhhhh
roll the credits
there's no more show to see
VERSE 2
somewhere out there in the night
beneath the moon and pitch black sky
the siren blared
woke up the farm
the tattoo blistered on my arm
you left me in a knot
your face
the trash on the floor
the trash on the floor
baby baby
i got just what you need
so why you like to cut me up
stand there and watch me bleed
bits and pieces of me on the floor
you'll be sweeping up what's left of me
dripping out the door- oohhh
dripping out the door- ohhhhhh
OUTRO
roll the credits
show is over
lights go up
lock me up
break out the cuffs
there's no more show to see
