Poison

She stepped off the bus and out
Into the city streets
Just a small town girl, whole life packed in
A suitcase by her feet

Somehow the lights didn't shine as bright as they did
On her mama's TV
Days seemed harder, nights seemed longer
Ever thought they'd do it

You gotta stick to your guns
When it all comes down
Sometimes you can't choose it
It's like heads they win, tails you're gonna lose

Win big, mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
Wants it all, mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice of her life

She found herself in the fast lane
Livin' day to day
Turned her back on her best friends
And let her family slip away

Just like a lost soul caught up in a Hollywood scene
All the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress hidin' all her pain
Trading her memories, fortune and fame

Just a lil' step away
From the edge of a fall
Caught between Heaven and Hell
Where's the girl I knew a year ago?

Win big, mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
She wants it all, mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice of her

Too much too soon
Just a little too late
Ooh 'cause when her ship came in
She wasn't there, just wouldn't wait

Win big, mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
Wants it all, mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice of her

Win big, mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
Wants it all, mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice of her life
