Can't Hardly Wait movie - Paradise City lyrics

rate me

Song by Guns N Roses<br /><br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

Just a urchin livin under the street<br>

I'm a hard case that's tough to beat<br>

I'm your charity case so buy me something to eat<br>

I'll pay you at another time<br>

Take it to the end of the line<br>

<br>

Rags to riches or so they say<br>

Ya gotta keep pushin for the fortune and fame<br>

It's all a gamble when it's just a game<br>

Ya treat it like a capital crime<br>

Everybody's doin the time<br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

Take me down to the paradise city<br>

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty<br>

Take me home<br>

<br>

Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber<br>

Why I'm here I can't quite remember<br>

The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe<br>

I'd have another cigarette but I can't see<br>

Tell me who you're gonna believe<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

So far away<br>

So far away<br>

So far away<br>

So far away<br>

<br>

Captain America's been torn apart<br>

Now he's a court jester with a broken heart<br>

He said turn me around and take me back to the start<br>

I must be losing my mind "are you blind?"<br>

I've seen it all a million times.<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>
