What’s It Gonna Take Songtext
von Mötley Crüe

We were drinkin′ dinner on the Sunset Strip
The girls doin' powder
Got a little on her lip
It′s just another night
Man, I can't take this

Runnin' outta money and I can′t pay the rent
The man at the label says we′ll never write a hit
Shit
Man, I can't take this

Everything is
Dr-dr-drivin′ me crazy
I'm tickin′ like a timebomb
And I'm about to blow

What′s it gonna take to make it?
What's it gonna take to make it?
I'm a sorry motherfucker
Tired of livin′ in the gutter
Get me outta here


What′s it gonna take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it
What′s it gonna take?
What's it gonna take to make it here?

So we wrote another song
Cut a demo on a dime
They didn′t like the sound
We didn't fit the times
And the radio station said
"It′s way too loud"

So, we took it to the streets
Just to prove 'em all wrong
We knew we had it right
Yeah, we knew it all along
It's just another fight
Man, I can′t take this

And everything is
Dr-dr-drivin′ me crazy
I'm tickin′ like a timebomb
And I'm about to blow


What′s it gonna take to make it?
What's it gonna take to make it?
I′m a sorry motherfucker
Tired of livin' in the gutter
Get me outta here

What's it gonna take to make it?
I′ll do anything but fake it
What′s it gonna take?
What's it gonna take to make it here?

What′s it gonna take to make it
In the city of sin?
Yeah, the city of angels
What's it gonna take to make it out of here?

What′s it gonna take to make it here?
What's it gonna take to make it here?

What′s it gonna take to make it?
What's it gonna take to make it?
I'm a sorry motherfucker
Tired of livin′ in the gutter
Get me outta here

What′s it gonna take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it
What′s it gonna take
What's it gonna take to make it here

What′s it gonna take to make it here?
What's it gonna take to make it here?
What′s it gonna take to make it here?
What's it gonna take to make it here?
What's it gonna take to make it here?
What′s it gonna take to make it here?
