Lyrics Billy Squier

Billy Squier

Hand-Me-Downs

Look to your left look to your right

Look to yourself look for a fight

If looks could kill, I'd be dead on sight

Oo yea you're dynamite

Pushin' yourself think you're so nice

Foolin' yourself never think twice

Everything goes me on ice

You kind of love cuts me down like a knife

I see your demons marchin' into my life

Don't want your hand-me-downs

Play it all wrong say it's all right

Play it too strong play it too tight

Take it too far--do it in spite

Oo yea you're such a fright

(spirit lives on) in the past

(passion ignites) you been movin'

(movers move on) much too fast

(soldiers must fight) shakin' me up move to indict

We're bound to lose when you start to fight

I see your secrets steppin' into the light

Don't want your hand-me-downs

Say it's all wrong say it's good night

Say it's so long--take a big bite

Say what you will--say it just right

Oo yea--get out of sight

(gonna hang tough) oo yea

(gonna hang tight) should I lose ya

(ya wanna play rough) I don't care

(we'll do it up right)

I read the news...i seen the light

I got to move when the time is right

Get me my ticket and I'm outa sight

Don't want your hand-me-downs

Look to your left--look to your right
