Sham On
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.
She said I never really thought I'd need this
I said my goal is to be cigarettes to you
it might sound dangerous but that just means it's worth it
I said I wanna get the shakes out lady
she said you don't know what you're getting into boy
this is a story where the epilogue is endless
c'mon c'mon freak out (this audio survival)
tune in and turn it out (this rock n roll revival)
cause I know you're only pretty when you walk away
yeah yeah, sham on
we've got a problem baby let's get hip
I wanna be cool but all that I can be is honest
and open up to let the pain pour from the pen
c'mon c'mon freak out (this audio survival)
tune in and turn it out (this rock n roll revival)
cause I know you're only pretty when you walk away
yeah yeah, sham on
