|
I know you're only talking |
|
To keep the silence out |
|
Maybe you should listen and leave some room for doubt |
|
You're just handing out bad reputations |
|
Why don't you shut your mouth |
|
chorus: |
|
Overnight sensation, |
|
All mouth and no soul |
|
The bad boys sold your franchise |
|
And stole your Rock 'n' Roll |
|
I know I ain't no beauty |
|
But I know who I am |
|
I ain't running for sheriff |
|
I ain't that kind of man |
|
To live outside the law , my dear |
|
You gotta give a damn |
|
Overnight sensation |
|
You be shot full of holes |
|
The bad boys stole your franchise |
|
And stole your Rock 'n' Roll |
|
You know you put the hurt on me |
|
You do it all the same |
|
Us guys ain't s'pose to hurt at all |
|
Our faces fit the frame |
|
You know I'm only talking |
|
To keep you here with me |
|
Maybe you should listen |
|
How hard could it be |
|
Good manners don't cost nothing |
|
But that ain't what you want from me |
|
Overnight sensation |
|
Turn your hard heart cold |
|
The bad boys sold your franchise |
|
And stole your Rock 'n' Roll |
|
You're just looking for someone |
|
To take your spirit home |
|
The bad boys sold your franchise, baby |
|
And stole your Rock 'n' Roll |
