Lyrics

she can't hack this rent
he ain't gonna spend another paper cent
it makes too many dents n the daily grind
heard enough promises
a lot 'o talk and not much sense
they believed and now they're waitin' on the gravy line
you can creep beneath the window
you can hide behind the facial
but you can't stand
still at the scene of a crime.
---------------
CHORUS:
you put out. it gets back to you
it gets back to you well
karma strikes back
---------------

buried alive till the clock strikes five
goin' out tonight to your favorite dive
gonna drag the day across the ballroom floor.
you can the dance the night in a low silk dress
if what you want is what you get
ya better get set to follow me through the door.
Are you ready to handle what you catch on the hunt
better watch what you say watch what you want
watch what you wish
who could ask for anything more?
(CHORUS)

rich man sees rich man gets
poor boys plead and young girls beg
and it all comes round when you
reach that state of mind.
now stand behind those looks you give
do ya want it now or was it just a whim
ought a pick up these lines you leave behind.

painted face masquerade
white flags wave in a love parade
the games you play are never worth a care.....
you can duck beneath the deep blue sea
fill your senses to capacity
but sooner or later.. you gotta come up for air.

(CHORUS)

you can creep beneath the window
you can hide inside the moonglow
but the real you gonna show in the indelible shine
are you ready to handle what you catch on the hunt watch what you say watch what you want
watch what you wish..
it happens all the time.

(CHORUS) karma strikes back
back to you..back..back to you
back to you..back to you..back
