Shakedown
No matter what you think you pull
you'll find it's not enough
No matter who you think you know
you won't get through.
It's a given L.A. law
someone's faster on the draw
No matter where you hide
I'm comin' after you.
No matter how the race is run
it olways ends the same
Another room without a view awaits downtown.
You can shake me for a while
live it up in style
No matter what you do
I'm going to take you down.
Shake down
break-down
take down
everybody wants into the crowded light
Break-down
take down
you're busted.
let down yovr gvard
honey
just about the tin4e you think that it's alright
Break-down
take down
you're busted.
This is a town where everyone is reachin' for the top
This is a place where second best will never do.
It's O.K. you want to shine
but once you step across that line
No matter where you hide
I'm comin' after you.
Shake down
break-down
take down
everybody wants into the crowded light
Break-down
take down
you're busted.
Shake down
break-down
honey
just about the time you think that it's alright
Break-down
take down
you're busted.
Shake down
break-down
take down
everybody wants into the crowded light
. . .
Shake down
break-down
take down
everybody wants into the crowded light
. . .
Shake down
break-down
take down
everybody wants into the crowded light
. . .
