Lyrics

There’s a (Db)place down town where the (Eb)freaks all come a round.

It’s a (Fm)hole in the wall, it’s a dirt y free for all (Db)to night.

When the dark

of the night

comes a round,

that’s the time

that the an (Db)i mal comes a live,

look ing for (Fm)comes some thing wild.

Now, now, we (Db)look ing like pimps in my (Eb)gold ver Trans Am, got a (Fm)wa ter bot tle full of whis key in my hand bag.

Got my (Db)drunk to text on; I’ll re (Eb)gret it in the morn ing.

(Fm)But to night, I don’t give a, I don’t give a, I don’t give a...

(Db)place down town where the (Eb)freaks all come a round.

It’s a (Fm)hole in the wall, it’s a dirt y free for all.

And they turn me on when they take it off, when they take it off, ev ’ry bod y take it off.

There’s a (Db)place I know, if you’re (Eb)look ing for a show, where they (Fm)go hard core and there’s glit ter on the floor.

And they turn me on when they take it off, when they take it off, ev ’ry bod y take it off.

Lose your mind,

lose it now,

lose your clothes

in the crowd.

We’re de lir (Db)i ous, tear it down

’til the sun (Fm)comes

back a round.

Now, now, we’ve (Db)got ten so smashed, knock ing (Eb)o ver trash cans.

Ev ’ry (Fm)bod y break ing bot tles; it’s a filth y hot mess.

And I’m (Db)down to get fad ed; I’m (Eb)not the des ig nat ed (Fm)driv er, so I don’t give a, I don’t give a, I don’t There’s a (Db)place down town where the (Eb)freaks all come a round.

It’s a (Fm)hole in the wall, it’s a dirt y free for all.

And they turn me on when they take it off, when they take it off, ev ’ry bod y take it off.

There’s a (Db)place I know, if you’re (Eb)look ing for a show, where they (Fm)go hard core and there’s glit ter on the floor.

And they turn me on when they take it off, when they take it off, ev ’ry bod y take it off.

Lose your mind, bod y take it off.

Oh,
