Love Deadly Love

A greyhound bus weaves its way across town

I'm sitting here thinking

Never thought i could be brought down

And low yes i'm sinking



* bet on a wild one, i got stitched

Caught up in a fight

I was dreaming, dreaming, oh i saw you last night

(i got a) 4 by 8 on riker's yard

8 to 15 i'm doin' hard

For you and your lover

Shot through the head

Air conditioning lead



The honeymoon was over

With the telephone bill

Yes you've been tumbled

With your fingers in the till

The chelsea hotel with a private line

Now it's payback time



** sha la la la i can't let you go

It's not over till it's over, no

Sha la la la i can't set you free

Oh no can't let go

'cause i put you right above

Love deadly love

Love deadly love



Through the shadows of my backyard

Now brother i'm leaving a calling card

This mission tonight

Feels so right mr. d.o.a.

Some they can take it and some lie down

Some just wear that thorny crown

Like a halo round the head

Oh now you're better off dead



** repeat



[instrumental]



** repeat



There's a visit and one phone call

And sometimes a stroll

If i'm straight in five years

Maybe remission or parole



* repeat



Five card stud that's your game

I'll cut stack and lose it's all the same

You could never say no never say no no no no



Love deadly love, love deadly love

Love deadly love, love deadly love

Love deadly love, love deadly love
