Payin' the Price lyrics

Takin' your chances

Burstin' through the sky

No time for reason

Now it's my turn to fly

Well, the eagle has landed

Man in outer space

Angel of death sent to destroy the human race

I got no time to wonder why

Hotel fires on TV on the five o'clock news

All the destruction and the blood that can be used

All the girls are runnin' round

Sleazin' with disease

I'm like a loaded pistol doin' as I please

And I got no time to wonder why

'Cause I'm harder than diamonds

Colder than ice

Runnin' with the shadows

Now I'm payin' the price

I'm payin' the price, babe

Colder than ice

I'm payin' the price

I'm payin' the price

(Harder than diamonds)

(Colder than ice)

(Runnin' with the shadows)

(Now I'm payin' the price)

(Harder than diamonds)

(Colder than ice)

(Runnin' with the shadows)

(Now I'm payin' the price)

(Harder than diamonds)

(Colder than ice)

(Runnin' with the shadows)

(Now I'm) payin' the price

Payin' the price

And I'm cold as ice

Payin' the price

Payin' the price

Colder than ice

Gimme that greenback dollar

German marks

French francs

Payin' the price

Payin' the price, payin' the price

Babe, it ain't nice

Payin' the price

Payin' the price, payin' the price
