day in day out

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

day-in oo oo

day-out oo oo oo

she was born in a handbag

love left

on a doorstep

what she lacks is a backup

nothing seems to make a dent

gonna find her some money honey

try to pay her rent

that's the kind of protection everyone is shouting about

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

day-in oo oo

day-out oo oo oo

first thing she learns is

she's a citizen

some things they turn out right

when you're under the usa

something rings a bell

and it's all over

she's going out her way

stealing for that one good rush

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

she could use a little money

she's hangin' on his arms

like a cheap suit

she's got no money

honey

she's on the other side

oh come on little baby

late night

big town

police

shake down

oo oo

oo oo

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

oo oo

oo oo

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

she's got a ticket to nowhere

she's gonna take a train ride

nobody knows her

or knows her name

she's in the pocket of a home boy

oo she's gonna take her a shotgun pow

spin the grail spin the drug

she's gonna make them well aware

she's an angry gal

day-in day-out

stay-in fade-out

suddenly there's angels everywhere

angels in a ton of sound

and they shootin' her down

shootin her with video-drugs-bullets and promises
