lyrics

Well, that's the chance you take
The longer life makes you wait
Before you're over the hill
Move in for the kill
When the sun don't shine
You'll be the first in line

Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Ooooh, oooh, oooh

You chose this life for yourself
And now you beg for my help
Wipe away the sweat
Each bead might help you forget
When the stars align
You'll be the first in line

Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Ooooh, oooh, oooh

Can you feel it?
Pouring down the drain
You don't know where you're going, don't know what you're fighting for
Can you feel it?
No one else to blame
And nowhere left to go
There's nowhere left to go

All this song and dance
Yes, you had your chance
Now your future is set
Time to lie in your bed
When the crown is mine
When the crown is mine
When the crown is mine
You'll be the first
You'll be the first in line
You'll be the first in line
