Rhy. Fig 1

What goes on behind closed doors
Private wounds, open sores
You¥re your own worst enemy
And cheap thrills bring you to your knees
It¥s thumbs down for someone like you
Easy come, easy go
Rhy. Fig 3
Burn your bridges, take what you can get
Go for the throat because you paid your debt
Livin¥ well is the best revenge
So give ¥em hell
Rhy. Fig 1 (4x)
While the city sleeps
Better run for your life
Take your troubles to the night
While the city sleeps
Beggars, thieves and losers
There¥s no relief
Rhy. Fig 2
For better or for worse you¥ve bought and sold
They love you while you¥re hot
And leave you when you¥re cold
