The Roches - Gimme a Slice lyrics
GIMME A SLICE
by Maggie, Terre and Suzzy Roche
Money position and power
Flashing back to the first impression
Hurrying year and slow hour
Are you ready to make some concessions
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Babbling gossip and thin ice
High flying theories and complex notions
How many times can you think twice
You're gonna have to go through the emotions
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Listen to the sound of the way you get around the room
Look into the eyes of the other butterflies that loom
Wearisome and dull weird and fantastic
Profitless and vain brave and elastic
All the lesser lights pale
You pack a punch and you don't know about it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
Gimme a slice with everything on it
