Title: Day-in Day-out
Lyrics Day-in Day-outDay-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
Day-in ooh ooh
Day-out ooh ooh ooh
She was born in a handbag
Love left on a doorstep
What she lacks is a backup
Nothing seems to make a dent
Gonna find her some money honey
Try to pay her rent
That's the kind of protection everyone is shouting about
Day-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
Day-in ooh ooh
Day-out ooh ooh ooh
First thing she learns is she's a citizen,
Some things they turn out right
When you're under the USA
Something rings a bell and it's all over
She's going out her way
Stealing for that one good rush
Day-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
She could use a little money
She’s hangin' on his arms like a cheap suit
She’s got no money, honey
She’s the other side
Oh come on little baby
Late night, big town, police, shake down
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Day-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Day-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
She's got a ticket to nowhere
She’s gonna take a train ride
Nobody knows her, or knows her name
She’s in the pocket of a home boy
Oo she's gonna take her a shotgun Pow
Spin the grail spin the drug
She's gonna make them well aware
She’s an angry gal
Day-in day-out
Stay-in fade-out
Suddenly there's angels everywhere
Angels in a ton of sound
And they shootin' her down
Shootin’ her with video-drugs-bullets and promises |
