I've seen you around You're the shadow of the man who ruled the world You're a big name in this town On the lips of every boy and every girl When you're in Vegas with the clock stopped Drunk off the body shots And trying to get the top off a beautiful girl You'll be rocking like a copper top Your pocket full of top stocks Every indication you're the king of the world But the dawn comes calling and the chick hits the road She's taken from your wallet what she felt she was owed Your head keeps screaming that it doesn't feel right 'Cause you're older in the morning than you were last night Things have started breaking down You're no longer in control of all you see And you can't seem to leave this town And you can't even make the sun go down No, you can't even make the sun go down Another day breaks over your face like a Cold wet hand cuffed to a new briefcase SongtexteThe hot water never seems to make it to the tap The hot coffee always seems to make it to your lap You clock in and it's the same every day Living in the future doesn't make it go away You smile at the women but there's nothing you can say When everybody's only passing you by And you'll be sitting in the corner though you ache for the stage Sick of taking orders from a punk half your age Dreaming every night that you're a snake in a cage And everybody's trying to get a look at your blood But the clock starts buzzing and it's back to your cell Another 10 hours in your workaday hell You think you're gonna lose it but you never can tell When everybody's looking at you, boy And things have started breaking down You're no longer in control of all you see And you can't seem to leave this town And you can't even make the sun go down No, you can't even make the sun go down Every city's got its own sad song Every city's got its own way of speaking But you're the one who's been here all day long And you don't want to have to live for the weekend Aus Songtexte Mania
