Clubland Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With a handful of backhanders and a bevy of beauty
You're going off limits
Going off duty
Going off the rails
Going off with booty
They tell tales of fiction found on all the criminal types
Lead to a higher ranking man or a face with thin red stripes
[Chorus]
The boys next door
The mums and dads
New weds and nearly-deads
Have you ever been had in Clubland?
In Clubland
There's a piece in someone's pocket to do the dirty work
You've come to shoot the pony
They've come to do the jerk
They leave him half way to paradise
They leave you half way to bliss
The ladies' invitation never seemed like this
[Chorus]
The boys next door
The mums and dads
New weds and nearly-deads
Have you ever been had in Clubland?
In Clubland
[Bridge]
The long arm of the law slides up the outskirts of town
Meanwhile in Clubland they are ready to pull them down
Hey
[Verse 3]
The right to work is traded in for the right to refuse admission
Don't pass out now, there's no refund
Did you find out what you were missing
The crowd is taking forty winks minus ten percent
You barely get required sleep to go lingering with contentment
Thursday to Saturday money's gone already
Some things come in common these days
Your hands and work aren't steady
With a handful of backhanders and a bevy of beauty
You're going off limits
Going off duty
Going off the rails
Going off with booty
They tell tales of fiction found on all the criminal types
Lead to a higher ranking man or a face with thin red stripes
[Chorus]
The boys next door
The mums and dads
New weds and nearly-deads
Have you ever been had in Clubland?
In Clubland
[Verse 2]
There's a piece in someone's pocket to do the dirty work
You've come to shoot the pony
They've come to do the jerk
They leave him half way to paradise
They leave you half way to bliss
The ladies' invitation never seemed like this
[Chorus]
The boys next door
The mums and dads
New weds and nearly-deads
Have you ever been had in Clubland?
In Clubland

Lyrics
Tears on your blackmailWritten to ransomA point of the fingernailSays that he`s so handsome
Clowntime is overTime to take coverWhile others just talk and talkSomebody`s watching where the others don`t walkClowntime is over
over over over
A voice in the shadowsSays that his men knowHe don`t step back as expectedHe`s otherwise and unprotected
Clowntime is overTime to take coverWhile others just talk talk talk talktalk and talkSomebody`s watching where the others don`t walkClowntime is over
is over is over is over
Almost too good to be trueWho do you? what do you do? why do you? While everybody`s hiding under coverWho`s making lover`s lane safe again for lovers?
Clowntime is overTime to take coverWhile others just kno no no no
Somebody`s watching where the others don`t walk
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Clowntime is over
Almost too good to be trueWho do you? why do you? what do you do?While everybody`s hiding under coversWho`s making lover`s lane safe again for lovers?
