Gridlock! Look what you did, look what you did! You locked up the grid, locked up the grid! You got the whole world flipping its lid
Torture is something we do at night for fun, You can't fit my burger in your bun, And thank god I'm not the only one, Who's feeling so alone, Awaiting patiently for the cyclone, I will call you on the phone And turn your bleeding heart to stone
And I ain't playing no joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker, I ain't playing no joker, poker
Sometimes in a lifetime of lies, Bloody tears are the tears she cries
And are you joking with your tape recorder? You were sent here to restore the order And give us just one more moment of sanity
Silence, is just a suspension of belief, A way to explain away the grief, And every policeman needs a chief
Gridlock! Look what you did, look what you did! You locked up the grid, locked up the grid! You know you gotta, gotta Keep your love hid from all those roguish thieves, Who live to kneecap knobby knees, Who cares what anyone here believes? I wear my heart on rayon sleeve
I ain't playing no joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker
One night in a night life, so white, The vampiress, she takes a bite, She wallows in her delight, As you lose your will to fight
The news today was a real shocker, You're sitting down, but you're off your rocker, Just another prisoner of fantasy
I ain't playing no joker poker, No joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker, No joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker, No joker poker, I ain't playing no joker poker, No joker poker, No joker poker, poker, No joker poker, poker, No joker poker
