John Mellencamp - Melting Pot lyrics

I met my girl

She was livin' in the melting pot

I touched her skin

It was greasy from the melting pot

Get yourself a weapon

Cause they slice you up in the melting pot

Well, I don't really have time to talk

But I wish you lots of luck inin the melting pot

CHORUS

And in the end it's always just some game

The heartbreak, the laughter has all been in vain

Beat up and lied to

For your whole life

Kick you in the head

In the melting pot

The hawks live upstairs

Where the air is clean in the melting pot

They like to swoop down

And gnaw at your brain in the melting pot

Money, sex and power

Jerk you off in the back seat of the melting pot

Then they say I saw you last night

And you sure were looking sweet in the melting pot

CHORUS

They'd like to buy you off

If they possibly can in the melting pot

With temptation and dreams and persuasion

That's what they got

In the melting pot

Keep you bleeding, begging and snotty here

In the melting pot

Well, don't you dare laugh out loud

They'll take away what ytou got

In the melting pot

CHORUS
