A silver lamp-lit sign flashes in the rain
Inside the taxi that takes me to my plane
And the party's over with a head that throbs
It's none of my business you see, I'm just doing my job |
A silver lamp-lit sign flashes in the rain
Inside the taxi that takes me to my plane
And the party's over with a head that throbs
It's none of my business you see, I'm just doing my job |
I'm gonna track you down
[L](I lived by the sword, died by the sword)
[R](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
[R](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
I'm gonna spring your trap
[L](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
[R](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Where the stuff is sold, he obeys the law)
[R](Died by the sword, lived by the sword)
| I'm gonna track you down
[L](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
[R](Lived by the sword, died by the sword)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
[R](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
I'm gonna spring your trap
[L](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
[R](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Died by the sword, lived by the sword)
[R](Where the stuff is sold, he obeys the law) |
Let's see...
You were last seen leaving Tony's Bar with a dark suspicious man
And some intoxicated woman 'cause your wife doesn't understand
A carnation in your buttonhole, greed inside your veins
Smooth threats and promises, hotel rooms and chains |
Now let's see...
You were last seen leaving Tony's Bar with a dark suspicious man
And some intoxicated woman 'cause your wife doesn't understand
A carnation in your buttonhole and greed inside your veins
Smooth threats and promises, hotel rooms and chains |
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Lived by the sword, died by the sword)
[R](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
[R](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
I'm gonna spring your trap
[L](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
[R](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Where the stuff is sold, he obeys the law)
[R](Died by the sword, lived by the sword)
| I'm gonna track you down
[L](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
[R](Lived by the sword, died by the sword)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
[R](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
I'm gonna spring your trap
[L](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
[R](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Died by the sword, lived by the sword)
[R](Where the stuff is sold, he obeys the law) |
Closing in like snow and rust
Leave you high and dry
First you're gonna simmer
Then you're gonna fry |
Closing in like snow and rust
Leave you high and dry
First you're gonna simmer
Then you're gonna fry |
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Lived by the sword, died by the sword)
[R](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
[R](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
I'm gonna spring my trap
[L](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
[R](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
I'm gonna track you down
[L](Where the stuff is sold, he obeys the law)
[R](Died by the sword, lived by the sword)
| I'm gonna track you down
[L](He obeys the law, where the stuff is sold)
[R](Lived by the sword, died by the sword)
I'm gonna catch your scent
[L](What can you afford, and the costs have soared)
[R](And our hand's in the war, in the rental hall)
I'm gonna spring my trap
[L](In the rental hall, and our hand's in the war)
[R](And the costs have soared, what can you afford)
