lyrics

Company Kurt
He’s the links in your shirt
He’s a real fine diner

Drinks get him kicks
But his real holy fix
Is a little bit shinier

Do me a favour
Step into the light
Then we’ll call it even
Little dog, goodnight

Martin McCain
Has his brain in his veins
He’s a veteran user

He’s the pitiful twin
Of original sin
He’s the original loser

Heavy metal
Without a sound
You will never
Break me down

I am the phoenix that rose from nothing
I am a king without a crown
You are the man who couldn’t break me down, break me down
You will never break me down
You will never break me down

Legal Laverne
She’s a snake in the ferns
And she bites like a tiger

She’s the one that you call
When you’re taking a fall
She’s a professional liar

Heavy weather
Raining steel
Don’t you ever
Tell me what to feel

I am the phoenix that rose from nothing
I am a king without a crown
You are the man who couldn’t break me down, break me down
You will never break me down
You will never break me down

Angel Deville
She’s the duchess of thrills
She’s the devil who dances

I’m a bit of a bruiser
With the men who abused her
I don’t give second chances

Come here darling
Hold me tight
Till the morning
There be a storm tonight

I am the phoenix that rose from nothing
I am a king without a crown
You are the man who couldn’t break me down, break me down
You will never break me down
You will never break me…

Break me down
