Death Wish

I never used to get suspicious Funny how we change into the people we do I hear em talking smack about the kids today It's always been the same way Burying the needle in my daddy's car Scaring all the ghosts along the boulevard Back streets, fast speeds, in back seats Thin lines, high crimes, hysteria Heart attacks, tight slacks, glass packs 8 tracks of rock and roll in stereo Tonight I died just a little bit Are you lying in love without me? I never had a death wish But everybody's got to go And tonight I died just a little bit Maybe I was stepping by the wrong door Maybe you were sleeping with the radio on Maybe if I see you next summer Maybe I'll be keeping my sunglasses on Maybe you'll remember when you sober up Baby what your make up wouldn't cover up Hard knocks, cheap shots, back talk Shell shock, next stop, hysteria Highways, high stakes, no brakes No plates, and rock and roll in stereo Tonight I died just a little bit Are you lying in love without me? I never had a death wish But everybody's got to go And tonight I died just a little bit Whenever I come downtown And I throw my weight around Even though I'm just a lightweight I'm gonna put the hammer down Babe I'm getting over you now
