New York Dolls - Gimme Luv and Turn On The Light lyrics

Something has shot me through

Just like the livin' truth

Gimme luv and turn on the light

How long has it been dark

Without the slightest spark

Gimme luv and turn on the light

All light shines in darkness

Where else could it shine?

Could it?

We're the proper troglodytes

Everybody loves a fight

Gimme luv and turn on the light

This is infinity

This is eternity

This is my destiny!

Foolishness and wisdom are practically the same

Indifferent to the opinions of the world

Of the world

Of the world!

Jumpin' out of room and life (?)

It's all struggle and strife

Gimme luv and turn on the light

When I come over the hill

With a folded dollar bill

It's "Baby where you been so long?"

Our shortcomings may be more

Than merely human after all

After all... after all... after all...

After all.
