Mötley Crüe
What’s It Gonna Take
[Verse 1]
We were drinking dinner on the sunset strip
The girls doing powder got a little on her lip
It's just another night, man, I can't take this
We're running out of money and I can't pay the rent
The man at the label said we'll never write a hit
Shit, man, I can't take this
[Pre-Chorus]
When everything is d-d-driving me crazy
Oh, I'm ticking like a time bomb and I'm about to blow
[Chorus]
What's it going to take to make it?
What's it going to take to make it?
I'm a sorry motherfucker, tired of living in the gutter, get me out of here
What's it going to take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it
What's it going to take? What's it going to take to make it here?
[Verse 2]
So we wrote another song, cut a demo on a dime
They didn't like the sound, we didn't fit the times
The radio station said it's way too loud
So we took it to the streets just to prove them all wrong
We knew we had it right, yeah, we knew it all along
It's just another fight, man, I can't take this
[Pre-Chorus]
When everything is d-d-driving me crazy
Oh, I'm ticking like a time bomb and I'm about to blow
[Chorus]
What's it going to take to make it?
What's it going to take to make it?
I'm a sorry motherfucker, tired of living in the gutter, get me out of here
What's it going to take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it
What's it going to take? What's it going to take to make it here?
[Post-Chorus]
What's it gonna take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it, I won't fake it
[Bridge]
What's it going to take to make it?
In the city of sin, yeah, city of angels
What's it going to take to make it out of here?
[Chorus 2]
What's it going to take to make it here?
What's it going to take to make it here?
What's it going to take to make it?
What's it going to take to make it?
I'm a sorry motherfucker, tired of living in the gutter, get me out of here
What's it going to take to make it?
I'll do anything but fake it
What's it going to take? What's it going to take to make it here?
[Outro]
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
What's it going to take to make it here? (What's it take? What's it gonna take? Yeah)
