Turn the music up, turn the lights down
Bet you can't go the distance
It's the same old song, I've heard it all night long
Summoning up my resistance
Did my time on the other side
Just to please those around me
But it's over now, I'm let loose
Feels so good to be living free
Thought I had the whole place wired
'Til the man stood up and fired
Shot down, it's the price you pay
Shot down, for behaving this way
Make the music loud, turn the lights off
Didn't take you for your mind
Though you dress in white, I know that you're a slut
I've got no pity for your kind
Thought I had the whole place wired
'Til the man stood up and fired
Shot down, it's the price you pay
Shot down, for behaving this way
Anything you like, even with your wife
Shot down, shot down
Thought I had the whole place wired
'Til the man stood up and fired
Then the lights went dim
Thought I heard someone scream
Shot down, it's the price you pay
Shot down for behaving this way
Anything you like (shot down)
Even with your wife (shot down)
Oh, it's no crime (shot down)
To want to go to paradise
It's the price you pay (shot down)
For behaving this way (shot down)
There's nothing you can say (shot down)
Oh, I've been shot, I've been shot
Shot down
