Billy Idol – Bitter Pill lyrics
Riding down this road
Like I've ridden down a million
I've run thru every roadblock in this town
I laughed at all the signs
They say speed will kill ya'
It took you to slow me down

And I've forgotten
How to fly
But I'll remember
Before I die

It's a crooked line I follow
It's a rocky road I ride
It's a bitter pill I swallow
Just to keep you by my side
Oh my

I'm driving without sleep
Like there just ain't no tommorow
Because misery is always colorblind
I've taken every remedy for ignorance and sorrow
Something to cure this wicked mind

And I've forgotten
How to fly
But I'll remember
Before I die

It's a crooked line I follow
It's a rocky road I ride
It's a bitter pill I swallow
Just to keep you by my side
Just to keep you satisfied

And I've forgotten
The reason why
But I'll remember
Before I die

It's a crooked line I follow
It's a rocky road I ride
It's a bitter pill I swallow
Just to keep you by my side
Just to keep you satisfied

It's a crooked line I follow
It's a rocky road I ride
It's a bitter pill I swallow
Just to keep you by my side
Just to keep you satisfied
Just to keep you by my side
Satisfied
Satisfied
It's a wicked world baby

I'm riding down this road
Like I've riden down a million
I've run thru every roadblock in this town
I laughed at all the signs
They say speed will kill ya'
It took you to slow me down

A hit of you to slow me down
It took you to slow me down

A hit of you to slow me down
It took you to slow me down

A hit of you to slow me down
It took you to slow me down, baby

A hit of you to slow me down
It took you to slow me down
