Good life came callin'
I fell under its spell and kept fallin', yeah
Great night, so fittin'
I sat into your lap and stayed sittin'

Oh, your smile seemed willin', you hid behind your porcelain fillin'
Oh, big lights, so pretty
Got swept away by lies, it's a pity
Oh, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah

I'll write you a story
But knowin' you you'll take all the glory
Oh, fat cats got lazy
The truth behind the cream, it got hazy

So now you're pullin' the rug from under me
Puttin' a gun in front of me, pullin' the rug from under me
Yes, you're pullin' the rug from under me
Puttin' a gun in front of me, pullin' the rug from under me

But I won't let you get me down, gonna spin you upside down
'Til you don't know your head from your tail
I got a way, I got a will, god, I'm never standin' still
Long enough for you to pin a win or fail

Time is tickin' by
My life is flyin' high
But you, you, you, you and I
Have ended our days of dreamin'

Pullin' the rug from under me, puttin' a gun in front of me
Pullin' the rug from under me
Yes, you're pullin' the rug from under me
Puttin' a gun in front of me, pullin' the rug from under me

But I won't let you get me down, gonna spin you upside down
'Til you don't know your head from your tail
I got a way, I got a will, god, I'm never standin' still
Long enough for you to pin a win or fail

Oh, pullin' the rug, yeah, oh, puttin' a gun , yeah
Pullin' the rug, pullin' the rug, yeah, yeah, yeah
Pullin' the rug from under me, puttin' a gun in front of me
Pullin' the rug from under me, yeah, yeah
