Blue Oyster Cult - Showtime Lyrics






Showtime...
Showtime...

People tell me I'm not getting younger in this place
The other guy in this room I'm sick of his face
And there's a guy who's watching me, it really is a drag
Hassling me on my way to work making license tags

But you ain't seen the last of me yet
I'll find you baby, on that you can bet
I didn't mind the risk of a life of crime
When I get out of here...
Showtime...
Showtime...

Eight long years to do, I've just finished two
These walls are a little bit tight
I'd rather be with you
Good behavior and I'll be out on parole
Or maybe I'll bust outta here, I'm losing self control

But you ain't seen the last of me yet
I'll find you baby, on that you can bet
I didn't mind the risk of a life of crime
When I get out of here...

Well i was young and in love, i pulled the perfect crime
You blew the whistle on me baby, and now I'm doing time
I guess you never loved me, you used me like a tool
And that guy out there with you, must think that I'm a fool

But you ain't seen the last of me yet
I'll find you baby, on that you can bet
I didn't mind the risk of a life of crime
When I get out of here
Showtime
Showtime
Showtime
Showtime

  2. L.... K....

    Almost sounds like alice cooper

  3. r.... s....

    I'm not smart enough to be your DUMB-ASS either?

  4. R.... L....

    Just another great tune. B.O.C

  5. B.... b....

    Xenu the first You'll get used to it. But, yeah, Showtime.

  6. W.... G....

    fine , but it does not sound at all like any BLUE OYSTER CULT , so what uh ?

    W.... G....

    you need to hear more of their albums if you think that.

  7. k.... k....

    kill that bitch, sweet revenge.

  8. P.... N....

    Eric Bloom airs up the wheels on his oxygen tank and snarfs a fistful of Luden's Cherry Lozenges for ANOTHER wretched look-out-I'm-getting-out-of-jail-revenge song...horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible. Buck must have the patience of a saint and Jules and Kasim must be happy with 1.5-X-union scale to listen to Bloom's I've-been-gargling-razor-blades squeaky voice dribble out the PA.

    P.... N....

    Thank you John for your professional reply. Eric Bloom has provided us with some of the best rock vocal works in history, in my opinion.

    P.... N....

    the ascetic principle, no?

    P.... N....

    Well let's look at you why do you wipe your ass like you do ,turning your head to the right!, want to complain, bout stuff complain by why your girls cheating on you , let's see you be in a band

    P.... N....

    @John Shirley I love these two albums. Glad you got to work with the band!

    P.... N....

    I think Eric is making the most of his aging voice.

  9. C.... S....

    I've never cared for the Shirley-penned lyrics.

    C.... S....

    Shirley didn't write Showtime. Shirley wrote a lot of other songs that most people who like BOC dig.

  10. E.... K....

    just great sounds and feel from the timeless cult.

  11. B.... H....

    Time for a NEW comment?
    As always and even if not a favorite, always good shit here for sure!!!

  12. W.... W....

    Next time you ask someone if they've lost their mind, be fucking kind enough consider the fucking fact that they never got to OWN the Fuckin' Thing...

    Stoopid.

    W.... W....

    referring to what?

    W.... W....

    Find face ..and risk a mud puddle?

  13. G.... ....

    THE BEST B O C SONG OF ALL TIME!!!!!

  14. G.... ....

    this album kicks ass...that's all I'm gonna say

  15. D.... ....

    @graywolfmage I was talking about this album in particular.

  16. D.... ....

    '01
    Eric Bloom
    Donald 'Buck Dharma' Roeser
    Allen Lanier
    Danny Miranda
    Bobby Rhondinelli

    Much of the song writing credits were from cyberpunk/sci-fi/horror writer John Shirley
