Only God in Town Songtext
von Shrug

Burned out at 27
Punched a ticket for rock′n'roll heaven
The first time in my life i went shopping for a different one
Growing old sophisticated
Into the thing that you and i hated
Junkie chic may be a dead end street but it′s a glamorous one

Maybe you would rather use your head
A little more bored a little less dead
Umbrella when the sky falls down
You're not the only god in town


Saw a chance and tried to take it
Went to hell so i thought i'd try to fake it
The first time in my life i knew the meaning of a better one
You were young and full of glory
You skipped ahead until you skipped the whole story
Drunk and dazed may be a painful phase but it′s a common one

Hit the wall around 30
Found a way to get my fingernails dirty
The first time in my life i′m feeling lucky just to have one
Saw your face for just a minute
A psychodrama with your name featured in it
Ambition's such an easy drug-it conquers
Everyone
Everyone
