Bon Jovi Fear song lyrics

I see you looking over your shoulder

Tell me who do you think's out there

You're reaching for your four leaf clover

But baby there ain't no luck down there

I swear that there's no heart in this city

It's here the slogan reads "Do your time"

Everybody's doing their sentence

It's just there ain't nobody here who knows just what's the crime

I watched my father live a lie here

I'd rather die than fade away

I read the rules and then I know them

You ain't ever gonna make me play the game of

Fear, fear, fear

Of a new thing

Running with the rats through the city

Makes you feel like you're a partner in crime

Girl, once you were young and pretty

Now won't you stop to watch that little girl die

Hey baby, won't you stop and hear me?

Just being here we're breathing heart attacks, yeah

We can run and chase the setting sun

We can run and we won't ever look back, no

Take my hand, I know we'll make it

I'll let nothing slow us down

I know you want to curse this place

There's only one thing that's stopping us now, it's

Fear, fear, fear

Of a new thing

Fear, fear, fear

Of a brass ring

You ain't one for taking chances

You work and you live and you breathe 9 to 5

Still that's what you call living, ha!

Man, that's surviving to me

And surviving is living to die in

Fear, fear, fear

Of a new thing

Fear, fear, fear

Of a brass ring

Fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, fear

FEAR!
