Let's have it right
We all know the score
Been up for three nights
You're stuck behind the door chewing off your jaw
The fame they stone in
You shouldered it
Made your fortune
But you broke inside
I don't want to die anymore
Anymore than I did want to die before
The fame they stoned you in
You soldiered it in
Made your fortune
But you broke inside
Stand up there in front of the whole world
And you don't feel them songs no more
Oh me, oh my, Amy
You won't be coming down tonight
So let's have it right
We all know the score
Been up for four nights
Stuck behind the door chewing off your jaw
The fame they stoned you in
Your tiny shoulders soldiered it
And you made your fortune
Stumble broken side
And have to stand up there in front of the whole wide world
And you don't feel them songs no more
Oh me, Amy, Amy
You won't be coming down tonight
If you have lyric corrections let me know
