No matter what you think you pull 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 yeah
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 gonna take you down
CHORUS: Shakedown Breakdown Takedown Everybody wants into the crowded line Breakdown Takedown You're busted Let down Your guard Honey, just about the time you're thinkin' it's alright Breakdown Takedown You're busted
This is a town where everyone is reachin' for the top This is a place where second best will never do It's ok to want to shine But once you step across that line No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you
