Lyrics
Dangerous Games
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When your pockets are empty
And you're feeling low
And the postman keeps calling
pushing bills through your door
You've got to do something
Can't take this lying down
Put your head above water
Or else you will drown
You can ride with the rebel in the fast lane
You can dance with the devil
These are dangerous games
Well it really doesn't matter
Where you are from
From the rich side of the city
Or the poor side of town
You've been watching too much T.V.
And video crime
Get back to reality
Stop wasting your time
You can ride with the rebel in the fast lane
You can dance with the devil
These are dangerous games
Tell lies be wise in time there's a price you will pay
Sell your soul, gain control and you know
You could go all the way
You can cheat and mistreat in excess to possess all you crave
But you can't take it with you when you lie in your grave
