Toto - Hooked lyrics
[Toto - Hooked lyrics]
Gimme some beer, gimme some fear
Reality and fame
Money from you, money for them
Billions being made
You think you got a real deal
When all you're buyin' is a fifth wheel
They gotcha by the yin yang
More dollar for the big bang
And when you have to have it
Somehow you always find a way
(You'll find a way) then it becomes a habit
You'll rob your late friend's grave
It's sex, it's drugs
And then we all fall down
Get hooked, on life or join the underground
It's oil, it's guns bad guys we never see
It's war, dead sons be all that you can be
Give it a spin, maybe you'll win
Nobody's gettin' paid
Lightin' it up, shootin' it up
Ya really should be afraid
You're lookin' for a new chin
So they tighten up your old grin
All you wanna do is fit in
So they're gonna make you real thin
It's just enough to tease you
They nail you right between the eyes
(Nail you right between the eyes)
Somehow it will disease you
While you're lobotomized
It's meds, it's feds don't need no PhD's
Load down, those sounds we love our MP3's
It's cribs, it's cars mercedes BNZ
It's abs, it's carbs stop super-sizing me!
It's sex, it's drugs
And then we all fall down get hooked on life
Or join the underground
It's crips, it's bloods
It's pimped out SUV's it's court, prime time
Those lawyer SOB's it's X, It's crack
It's glass and ADD it's cool, it's wack
I'll pay you back your kick, you prick
You get the first one free
You're cuffed, you're hooked you're hooked!
Reality and fame
Money from you, money for them
Billions being made
You think you got a real deal
When all you're buyin' is a fifth wheel
They gotcha by the yin yang
More dollar for the big bang
And when you have to have it
Somehow you always find a way
(You'll find a way) then it becomes a habit
You'll rob your late friend's grave
It's sex, it's drugs
And then we all fall down
Get hooked, on life or join the underground
It's oil, it's guns bad guys we never see
It's war, dead sons be all that you can be
Give it a spin, maybe you'll win
Nobody's gettin' paid
Lightin' it up, shootin' it up
Ya really should be afraid
You're lookin' for a new chin
So they tighten up your old grin
All you wanna do is fit in
So they're gonna make you real thin
