Gridlock! - Electric Six

Gridlock, look what you did, look what you did

You locked up the grid locked up the grid

You got the whole world flipping it’s 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 sleeves

I ain’t playing no joker poker

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
