  • Got a whiplash tongue
    That is sharp like a razor
    With a kill switch mind a role manipulator
    And you're so alive
    I can see you on the marquee
    You're in overdrive
    But you're lookin'
    For the Soul key
    You're a big bone lick
    And I feel your vibration
    A Dog and Pony
    Trick
    You know you need a
    Vacation
    With your mighty fine
    Wealth

    Now you're livin'
    In a typhoon
    You Better check your health
    I See the risin' of the
    Black Moon
    The Man
    Man In The Middle
    Tell me can
    Can you cry me a riddle
    You can't see the light
    And the darkness
    Has fallen upon you
    And you live and die

    In the madness
    That gathers around you
    In a big black car
    Now you're full of ambition
    You're a Rock 'n Roll Star
    With a killer condition
    Talk so cheap
    And I heard it on the
    Grapvine
    You better sow what you reap
    Or you be walkin' on a flatline
    Can't see the light 'til
    You open your eyes
    You open your eyes Writer/s: GLENN WILLIAM HUGHES, JOE BONAMASSA, KEVIN SHIRLEY
