Tough As Nails

Mr. macho loves his women with such dedication

Second only to his car that drives as fast as light

On a highway bad jet fighters come from all directions

Shooting verbal missiles, find their target right on sight, right on sight



In the office things get rough as action is diminished

Staring at a paper he is lost inside his head

Dreaming of a battlefield with guns and ammunition

All around, the bodies of the wounded and the dead, and the dead



(chorus)

'cause he's tough as nails

He's tough as nails

He's tough as nails

He's tough as nails



He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire



Now its time for football and a bout with heavy drinking

Holding so much liquor makes him feel like a man

As he drifts out on the sea on a ship that's slowly sinking

Quietly salutes himself and the courage he once had, he once had



(repeat chorus)



Walking round and round in circles

Waking up in a cold sweat

Falling down a stairway and the tv dinner's not done yet

Smash a window, crash a car

And buy a pair of leather shoes

Take a sweetheart to a movie

Cash a check and pay some dues



He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire

He's such a live wire



(repeat chorus)



Walking round and round in circles...
