lyrics

I met my wife in a Baltimore church, performed together on TV
I wanna give, I wanna love, I wanna live, before I go out like a light
Loaded the car with stolen instruments, drove across to LA
I wanna give, I wanna love, I wanna live, before I go out like a light

CHORUS
When you get it wrong that’s where music starts
Take your chances you’re a songshark

Lets go savage you and I, she left me living in my car
I lace my tea with PCP, never saw my baby son again
I write the music as I read the poem, 36 songs a day
My eyes are blind with colours, before I go out like a light

CHORUS

Bridge
Send your lyrics I’ll make you a song
Words might be strange, might seem wrong
When you make a mistake just play along
(Sing it) like you mean it from the heart
Take your chances you’re a songshark

I hate wearing clothes and I go out for smokes, I gotta put a raincoat on
I ripped it off when it caught on fire, let’s go savage you and I
My eyes are blind with colours, they arrested me on sight
I wanna give I wanna love I wanna live, before I go out like a light


CHORUS

Missed an easy payment lost my apartment, let’s go savage you and I
I wanna give, I wanna love, I wanna live, above the Hollywood Freeway
My eyes are blind with colours, as I jump from the overpass
I wanna give I wanna love I wanna live, before I go out like a light

CHORUS

Bridge
