The Brian Setzer Orchestra - Buzz Buzz lyrics

written by B. Setzer Cruisin' 'round this hopeless town, Down the lovely streets of desire You're my angel of mercy all dressed in white And I'm a smokin' gun for hire Takin' a walk on the wild side Johnny's got a habit that he can't hide Livin' life from high to high When nighttime comes, you can hear him cry Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain Day is night and night is day Being alive just gets in the way The twisting snake inside his brain Whispers to him, "Time to k** the pain" They told him opportunity was just around the corner Well, he wore out his shoes tryin' to find that corner He might just pick himself up again Until it happens, until then Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain He's not a new tattoo dedicated to you As the ink and the blood mix with pain It's a man on a white horse goin' nowhere And the man has no face or no name With the walls closin' in, he's runnin' for cover He's spinnin' way out of control He might just pick himself up again Until it happens, until then Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain Buzz buzz goes the needle Each drop of blood is a token of love Buzz buzz goes the needle And I want a sign from above
