Bright Lights Lyrics

The bright lights of the big city
They taught us how to think
They taught us how to steal
Come on and steal me, steal me
You took your razor tongue to my lovin' eyes
You said "A time to live, now's the time to die"
Come on now die with me, die with me

Can't you see there must be more for me
You know you're livin' a lie
And so am I
You know I'd have a breakdown
But I don't have the time
Ooh

I get up straight, I take my pill
I swallow it whole, I don't feel ill, oh
It ain't a crime to live, it ain't a crime to die
And it ain't a crime to walk in this big, big sky
Come on now walk with me yea, walk with me

Can't you see, there must be more for me
You know you're livin' a lie
And so am I
I know you'd have a breakdown
But you don't have the time
And you're all messed up
Waitin' for a sign
You want me to paint it
I haven't got the time
Ohh, my, my, my, my
Take a ride with me

It ain't no crime to walk, it ain't no crime to fly
It ain't no crime to die, and it ain't no crime to take a walk in
The big sky

The bright lights of the big city
They taught us how to think
They taught us how to see can you
(Twenty, twentyfirst century breakdown)

Can't you see there must be more for me
You know you're livin' a lie
And so am I
I know you'd have a breakdown
But you don't have the time
And you're all messed up
Waitin' for a sign
You want me to paint it
I haven't got the time
And it's makin' me crazy
I don't know where I fit
I guess in the end
We're all sick
Aah

Come on now ride with me, come on now ride with me
Come on now ride with me, come on now ride with me yea
Come on now ride with me, just take a ride with me yea
Oh, yea
Twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twentyfirst
Twenty, twenty, twenty, twentyfirst
Twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty
(The bright lights of the big city)
Oh twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty sound
(The bright lights of the big city)
Oh twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty vision
(The bright lights of the big city)
Come on now ride with me
Come on now ride with me

The bright lights of the big city
They taught us how to think
They taught us how to steal
