What It Takes Songtext
von Overkill

Dream, dream, burning like an absolute
Drunk with the love of the fire
Bring, bring, burning in a leather boot
Kicking like he never gets tired
I saw him coming up the fastening line speed
Murder track, conventional fool
Wham, crack, bang, slap, falling at such speed
Humming like a kicking mule

Here we come now
Here we go

Need you now
No mistakes
Stand up tall and give me
What it takes


Hit the ground running
I was faster than light speed
Running ′fore my feet hit the floor
That machine gunning
Kept me falling at such speed
Pulled the shades of life over
One, two, three, four
I saw him coming, coming into the void
And I was drunk with the love of the fire
Was a knockdown drag
I never found my boots
I was kicking like I never get
One, two, three, four

Here we come now
Here we go

Need you now
No mistakes
Stand up tall and give me
What it takes
Need you now
I'm not afraid
Stand up straight and keep me
That′s what it takes

Little hot, a little cold
A little young, he's growing old
A little brick, a little bold
Never did what he was told
I'll tell you why you′re feeling bad
A little blade, a little sad
A little more you never had
A little saint who′s going mad


Since you're hiding out from me
You′re nothing more than eternity
I tell you what I'm going to be
I′m going to be your misery
And when you feel you're going to break
Just say your prayers
For goodness sake, we′re going to see
What you can take
We're going to see now what it takes

Count it down, she hit the floor
Count it out, she took it whole
Count it when you're going to break
Count it down, it′s what it takes
Count it when you′re feeling bad
Count it when you're going mad
Count on me for goodness sakes
Come on in, it′s what it takes

What
It
Takes
What
It
Takes

Dream, dream, burning like an absolute
Drunk with the love of the fire
Bring, bring, burning in a leather boot
Kicking like he never gets tired
I saw him coming up the fastening line speed
Murder track, conventional fool
Wham, crack, bang, slap, falling at such speed
Humming like a kicking mule

Here we come now
G-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go

Need you now
No mistakes
Stand up tall and give me
What it takes
Need you now
I'm not afraid
Stand up straight and keep me
That′s what it takes

If that's what it takes
What it takes
