No matter what you think you pull you'll find it's not enough   No matter who you think you know you won't get through   It's a given L.A. law   Someone's faster on the draw   No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you   yeah      No matter how the race is run it always ends the same   Another room without a view awaits downtown   You can shake me for a while   Live it up in style   No matter what you do I'm gonna take you down      CHORUS:   Shakedown   Breakdown   Takedown   Everybody wants into the crowded line   Breakdown   Takedown   You're busted   Let down   Your guard   Honey, just about the time you're thinkin' it's alright   Breakdown   Takedown   You're busted         This is a town where everyone is reachin' for the top   This is a place where second best will never do   It's ok to want to shine   But once you step across that line   No matter where you hide I'm comin' after you      Repeat chorus
