Come on down and dance,

If you get the chance,

We’re gonna spit on the rival.

All I wanna know,

Fighting for survival.

[Verse 2]
G
Underneath the stars,
                       D
Where we parked the cars,
C                             G
Ain’t showing signs of stopping.
G
Pretty little girls,
                   D
Naked to their curls,
C                 G
Ready to lay in a coffin.
G
If you wanna go,
            D
I’m gonna go,
C                  G
I gotta fire burning.
G
Come on take my hand,
                D
When we see the man,
C                       G
Baby’s gonna be a big one.
 
     G                  D               C                       G
                                        Baby’s gonna be a big one.
