Put your life on the table
|
Stick your money on the line
|
Create the situation there, one more time
|
Your name it means nothing
|
And the dreams that we live ??
|
|
And now you don't care if she is, the girl from next door
|
She's never been known for nothing, but a motor street whore
|
You don't believe nothin' that you can't see
|
And you see me as nothing, to me, yeah-ah yeah
|
|
You can take what you want
|
Take what you want
|
Take what you want
|
But just don't take it away
|
You can stay if you want
|
Stay if you want
|
Stay if you want
|
But just don't stay all day
|
Cause you know it means nothing, to me
|
|
Don't see much sense in lying here with you
|
The sex is over now, what is there left to do
|
Conversation, conversation baby, I don't talk that much
|
And now I don't know when I'm gonna see you again
|
I'm leaving tomorrow and this will all start again
|
I hope you don't believe that you was a failure ??
|
And you see it means nothin' to be a man
|
|
(repeat chorus 2 times)
|
But you know it means nothing
|
Yeah you know it means nothing
|
Yeah you know it means nothing, to me
|

Take What You Want
