Tina Turner - Steel Claw lyrics

rate me

A NIGHT IN TELEVISION WONDERLAND

ANOTHER FAIRYTALE ABOUT SOME RITCH BITCH

LYING BY THE SWIMMING POOL

IT`S THE GOLDEN SCHOOL

LIVING`S EASY WHEN YOU MAKE THE RULES

LAST FRIDAY WAS THE FIRST TIME

IT ONLY TOOK ABOUT A HALF A MINUTE

ON THE STAIRWAY

IT WAS CHILD`S PLAY

THE ODDS TURN TO EVEN

WHEN YOU GIE UP BELIEVING IN THE

COLD LAW, STEEL CLAW

TRY TO GET ON BOARD

YOU FIND THE LOCK IS ON THE DOOR

WELL I SAY `NO WAY...'

DON`T TRY TO KEEP ME OUT OR THERE`LL BE HELL TO PAY

IS WHAT YOU GET FOR MESSING WITH THE STEEL CLAW

THE POLITICIANS HAVE FORGOTTEN THIS PLACE

EXCEPT FOR A FLYING VISIT IN A BLACK MERCEDES

NO ELECTION TIME

AND EVERYBODY RUNS TO WATCH THE PANTOMIME

IF THEY COULD SEE WHAT`S GOING HERE AROUND THERE

SO MANY PEOPLE HANGING ON THE EDGE

CRYING OUT GOR REVOLUTION

THE ODDS TURN OUT EVEN

WHEN YOU GIVE UP BELIEVING IN THE

SOMETIMES I THINK I`M GOING CRAZY

SOMETIMES I DO A LINE

MAKES ME LAUGH

MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE A JOYRIDE

ON THE HIGH TIDE

SOMETIMES I`M CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE

MEANWHILE EDDY`S ON THE WEST COAST

I HEARD HE`S SHACKING UP WITH SOME SWEET SENORITA

UP IN FRISCO YOU AND I KNOW

THE ODDS TURN OUT EVEN

WHEN YOU GIVE UP BELIEVING IN THE
