lyrics

I have no fear of winning,
of putting my finger in the mouth
of the game that ate your quarter.
I’ll burn this arcade down.

One of these days, you’ll get out of this town,
and I’ll still be here, holding it down.

I have no fear of fighting.
I’d drink a cup of tears.
If the crowd is getting hungry,
you bleed to get their cheers.

One of these days, you’ll get out of this town,
and I’ll still be here, holding it down.

I have no fear of dying.
The angels keep their receipts.
They can take me back whenever,
and judge me by my deeds.

One of these days, you’ll get out of this town,
and I’ll still be here, holding it down.

There are no tests that matter.
I’m not afraid fail.
I am no crazy captain.
There is no white whale

One of these days, you’ll get out of this town,
and I’ll still be here, holding it down.

I have no fear of loving.
I’ll fire into that smoke
and hope that I hit something
that can take a joke.

One of these days, you’ll get out of this town,
and I’ll still be here, holding it down.
