Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A getaway car full of bullet holes
Didn't stop pushing till they broke the mold
Didn't die young, but they didn't grow old as well
The necromancer and the Southern belle
Sittin' outside the Gates of Hell
Licking their lips 'cause the ashes fell again
And now we're singin'
[Verse 2]
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to take it from me
If you want it, well, it's all for sale, I'm never gonna give it for free
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to give me something
If you want it, well, I need to know: what's in it for me?
[Verse 3]
Somewhere far, somewhere faint
Some get lost in the masquerade
Lookin' for the sun, but you found the shade again
The cosmic dancer, the Marquis De Sade
Holding on to the lightning rod
Looking for kicks, but the plan was flawed again
And again we're singin'
[Verse 4]
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to take it from me
If you want it, well, it's all for sale, I'm never gonna give it for free
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to give me something
If you want it, well, I need to know: what's in it for me?
[Verse 5]
I remember love, in the stars above
When push comes to shove, they're all for cover-up
Found safety again, your head built again
Now you can't pretend to be a lover
In the afterlife, on the other side, you found peace of mind undercover
You don't write the rules, you're the bell that tolls
You're the one that moves me like a rebel
[Verse 6]
I'm living outside the law
I'm waiting for the ice to thaw
Just listen for the crow of the call again
And again we're singin'
[Verse 7]
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to take it from me
If you want it, well, it's all for sale, I'm never gonna give it for free
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to give me something
If you want it, well, I need to know, what's in it for me?
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to take it from me
If you want it, well, it's all for sale, I'm never gonna give it for free
If you want it
If you want it, well, you're gonna have to give me something
If you want it, well, I need to know,  what's in it for me?
[Verse 8]
What's in it for me?
What's in it for me?
