Nightmare Avenue

Scorpions

Music :Matthias Jabs

Lyrics:Klaus Meine, Mark Hudson



Last night I went to kill

Some time at the famous grill

Where the tall eats the small

There were girls all over me

That's my insanity

Don't call me Ringo, call me Paul



I'm in heaven, I'm in hell

Don't wipe that smile off my face

Can't you tell

I see faces in the weirdest places

Please, won't you take me down

Underneath you spell



Oh, oh I'm back at midnight (alright)

I drop my keys, could you get 'em love

Oh, oh baby I might (he might)

I got the stuff to keep it goin' on all night



Take me down nightmare avenue

Goin' down nightmare avenue

I wanna take you too



Sharp as a sabres tooth

Back in my favorite booth

I'm getting spanked with cold champagne

I'd walk on a razor blade

If you're dressed like a French maid

I get my pleasure out of pain



I'm in heaven, I'm in hell

Don't wipe that smile off my face

Can't you tell

I see faces in the weirdest places

Please, won't you take me down

Underneath you spell



Oh, oh I'm back at midnight (alright)

I drop my keys, could you get 'em love

Oh, oh baby I might (he might)

I got the stuff to keep it goin' on all night



Take me down nightmare avenue

Goin' down nightmare avenue

Drive me down nightmare avenue

Lay me down on nightmare avenue



Take me down nightmare avenue

Goin' down nightmare avenue

Drive me down nightmare avenue

Lay me down on nightmare avenue



And I've gonna take you too
