Pat Benatar - Takin it back
Tekst :
When they found you, you were driven and hungry
You were playin for your life then
You were livin for the chance to be heard
What they promised, what they offered
Was more than you d ever hoped for
To walk away, ya know that would ve been absurd
And talk about absurdity, it was madness
It was everything in excess
It was too much, too many, and too little time
It was faceless people in jackets and ties
Who thought of you when they made love to their wives
Somehow, it wasn t what you had in mind
Chorus:
Tell `em you re Takin It Back
So they might as well get used to the idea
You re Takin It Back, those cooperation days are over
You got no one to blame but yourself
So don t put it on nobody else
Put it behind you, start over, today
There were parties and photos and televised award shows
And covers of magazines
There was gold and platinum and everyone was smiling
You were coming apart at the seems
There were jerk offs too numerous to mention
When everybody shared the dream
But when it came time to share the nightmare
They were conveniently nowhere to be seen
(Chorus)
Oh they ll argue what they gave you was exactly what you wanted
And just to be fair, ya know that some of it s true
That s why ya gotta be careful, `bout your wishes
Take your time and think `em over
Sometimes those wishes just might come true
Tell `em you re Takin It Back
So they might as well get used to the idea
You re Takin It Back, those cooperation days are over
Tell `em you ve had enough, and if they don t like it it s tough
You re Takin It Back, those cooperation days are over
You re Takin It Back
Tell `em you re Takin It Back

You better run Lipstick lies My clone sleeps alone I ant out Silent partner Purgatory Disconnected Strawberry wine Just like me Treat me right A crazy world like this Out-a-touch In the heat of the night All fired up Sometimes the good guys finish first Temporary heroes Temptation Losowe utwory
Driving fast and ditching school, breaking all the precious rules.
It s too hard, to make a living.
I need a kick, I need a girl so badly I could scream.
I m sick of watching people on T.V.
I feel the wind, in my...
Music has made my life worth living
Music is all about loving and giving Now that I say goodbye to my friends
I go singing to Heaven
Singing to Heaven
High on a mountain
I m learning to fly
Spreading my wings and...
There s a change in pace
Of fantasy and taste
Do you like good music?
Do you like to dance? Oh yeah.
Hangin out for a body shop at night
Ain t it strange what we do to feel alright? Oh yeah.

Sein Kopf ist übafüllt mit hartn Reimen geprägt durch harte Zeitn
höchstens seine Fraun kennen auch seine zarten Seiten
die Gegna heissen Neid und Gier für ihn gibt es kein wir
er ist alleine hier um auf Druck von Aussen mit Gegendruck zu reagiern
ein selbstgekrönter...
Perpetual dancer
lost in the streams
of innocent violation
and the time denotes only a chaos
of certainty.
perpetual dancer
let me wreathe this braided flesh
upon your head
and love you in the mirror
for time says that this can go on
forever...
perpetual dancer
exclude me from your last dance
for time knows nothing
the illusion of certainty.
perpetual dancer
beautiful as the dark...
