Good life came calling
I fell under its spell and kept falling
Great night, so fitting
I sat into your lap and stayed sitting

Oh, your smile seemed willing
You hid behind your porcelain filling
Oh, big lights, so pretty
Got swept away by lies, it's a pity

I'll write you a story
But knowing you you'll take all the glory
Oh, fat cats got lazy
The truth behind the cream, it got hazy

So now you're pulling the rug from under me
Putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me
You're pulling the rug from under me
You're putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me

But I won't let you get me down
Gonna spin you upside down
'Til you don't know your head from your tail
I got a way, I got a will
God, I'm never standing still
Long enough for you to pin a win or fail, yeah

Time is ticking by, my life is flying high
But you, you, you, you and I have ended our days of dreaming

You're pulling the rug from under me
Putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me
You're pulling the rug from under me
You're putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me

But I won't let you get me down
Gonna spin you upside down
'Til you don't know your head from your tail
I got a way, I got a will
God, I'm never standing still
Long enough for you to pin a win or fail, yeah, yeah

You're pulling the rug from under me
Putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me
You're pulling the rug from under me
You're putting a gun in front of me
Pulling the rug from under me
