Oingo Boingo - Tough As Nails Lyrics
Mr. macho loves his women with such dedicationSecond only to his car that drives as fast as lightOn a highway bad jet fighters come from all directionsShooting verbal missiles, find their target right on sight, right on sightIn the office things get rough as action is diminishedStaring at a paper he is lost inside his headDreaming of a battlefield with guns and ammunitionAll around, the bodies of the wounded and the dead, and the dead(chorus)cause hes tough as nailsHes tough as nailsHes tough as nailsHes tough as nailsHes such a live wireHes such a live wireHes such a live wireHes such a live wireNow its time for football and a bout with heavy drinkingHolding so much liquor makes him feel like a manAs he drifts out on the sea on a ship thats slowly sinkingQuietly salutes himself and the courage he once had, he once had(repeat chorus)Walking round and round in circlesWaking up in a cold sweatFalling down a stairway and the tv dinners not done yetSmash a window, crash a carAnd buy a pair of leather shoesTake a sweetheart to a movieCash a check and pay some duesHes such a live wireHes such a live wireHes such a live wireHes such a live wire(repeat chorus)Walking round and round in circles...
