Broken and wasted, tired of running,
Seems like the whole world is getting at me.
Fooled by a dancer of obvious persuasion,
I paid for  the taxi, but the sex was for free.

Oh I've been taken to the limit,
Oh I've seen the Hollywood sign,
Oh I've been taken to the limit,
Taken to the limit, one too many times.

I was not gifted with high education,
They said I was trouble so I duly obliged.
Stole me a car and I took me some free rides,
The Hollywood hills on midsummer nights.

Just one more kid on the runaway,
You think I'm crazy well that's okey.
My Moma phones me everyday,
But I ain't never going home.

Oh I've been taken to the limit,
Oh I've seen the Hollywood sign,
Oh I've been taken to the limit,
Taken to the limit, one too many times.
