| Lyrics |
It's just a television wonderlandjust one more fairytale about a rich bitch lyin' by the swimming pool
Life is so cool
Easy living when you make the rules
Last Friday was the first time, it onlytook about half a minute on the stairway
It was child's play
The odds come out evenwhen you give up believing in the
[chorus:]
Cold law
Steel claw
Try to get on board you'll find the lock is on the doorand I say no way... no way...don't try to get out, or there'll be hell to pay!I don't know who's right, who's wrong
It really doesn't matter when you're lying in the gutterit's a see-saw
A long hard battle with the cold lawis what you get for messing with the steel claw
The politicians have forgotten this place, except forflying visits in a black Mercedes on election timethey cross the lineand everybody runs to miss the pantomime
If you could see what's going on around here,so many people hanging on the edgecrying out for revolution, retrobution
The odds come out evenwhen you give up believeing in the
[chorus]
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy
Sometimes I do a line, makes me laugh,makes me wanna take a joy rideon the high tide
Sometimes I'm contemplating suicide
Meanwhile, Eddy's on the west coast
I hear he's making out with some sweet senorita up in Frisco
You and I know
The odds come out evenwhen you give up believing in the
[chorus]
