Lyrics

Dispossessor

[Intro]

You've gotta be bad to be

You're moving too fast to see

[Chorus]

Live it up while you can

And give it up while you can

You're moving too fast again, my man

Oh no, oh no

You're gonna blow

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Live it up while you can

And give it up while you can

You're moving too fast again, my man

Oh no, oh no

You're gonna blow

Live it up while you can

And give it up while you can

You're moving too fast again, my man

Oh no, oh no

You're gonna blow

[Outro]

You've gotta be bad to be

You're moving too fast to see
