Testo Shakedown

No matter what you think you hold
You'll find it's not enough
No matter who you think you know
You won't get through
It's a given LA 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 always ends the same
Another room without a view waits 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

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted

Let down, you're gone, honey,
Just about the time you're thinkin' it's all right
Breakdown, takedown, 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 ok to want to shine
But once you step across that line
No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted
Let down, you're gone, honey,
Just about the time you're thinkin' it's all right
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted
