Oh tough guy- living your rhymes or is it just in your mind?
My mistake, were you actually just living a lie?
Nevertheless, so continuous
I know your playing the part but it's so ridiculous
Now I know it's just that you want to feel high
And don't get me wrong cause I think it's alright
One thing discovered, one thing I have found
Is that everybody everybody
Everybody wants to be a gangster
When they turn off the light
A vision of a million dollar banner "wanted dead or alive"
Everybody wants to be a gangster
In the dead of the night
I never thought I'd ever see a world war made up
Whole thing built on lies
Oh you don't walk you dance
I love the way you glance at everybody to intimidate them with your staunch stance
Nevertheless, so continuous
I know your playing the part but it's so ridiculous
Now I know it's just that you want to feel high
And don't get me wrong cause I think it's alright
One thing discovered, one thing I have found
Is that everybody everybody
Everybody wants to be a gangster
When they turn off the light
A vision of a million dollar banner "wanted dead or alive"
Everybody wants to be a gangster
In the dead of the night
I never thought I'd ever see a world war made up
Whole thing built on lies
Well at first he's got the thrill, the machines all set to kill
And he hopes you'll come around but I guess I never will
'cause everybody wants to be a gangster
Everybody wants to have their minute while it's hot
But I dont like killing just so we can dig their land up
I don't really get it and I guess I never will.
So now let's
Everybody wants to be a gangster
In the dead of the night
I never thought I'd ever see a world war made up
Whole thing built on lies
