Lyrics

[Verse 1] No matter what you think you've pulled You'll find it's not enough No matter who you think you know You won't get through It's a given, L.A. law Someone's faster on the draw No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you [Verse 2] No matter how the race is run It always ends the same Another room without a view Awaits downtown You can shake me for a while Live it up in style No matter what you do I'm going to take you down [Chorus] Shakedown, breakdown, takedown Everybody walks into the crowded light Breakdown, takedown You're busted Let down your guard, honey Just about the time you figured it's all right Breakdown, take down You're busted (Oh, oh, uh) [Verse 3] This is a town where everyone Is reaching for the top This is a place where Second best will never do It's okay you want to shine But once you step across that line No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you [Chorus] Shakedown, breakdown, takedown Everybody walks into the crowded light Breakdown, takedown You're busted Shakedown, breakdown, honey Just about the time you think that it's all right Breakdown, takedown You're busted [Break] Oh, busted Oh oh [Chorus] Shakedown (Breakdown), breakdown (Takedown), takedown Everybody walks into the crowded light Breakdown (Takedown), takedown (Shakedown) You're busted (Busted, busted) Shakedown (Breakdown), breakdown (Takedown), honey Just about the time you think that it's all right Breakdown (Takedown), takedown (Shakedown) You're busted Shakedown, breakdown, takedown Everybody walks into the crowded light Breakdown, takedown You're busted (Let down your guard, honey) Just about the time you figured it's all right (Breakdown, takedown) Oh, you're busted Shakedown, breakdown, takedown Everybody walks into the crowded light Breakdown, takedown You're busted Let down your guard, honey Just about the time you figured it's all right...
