John Popper Took lyrics

An ample sigh, I wonder why
As recklessly I promenade
All through town, you'd hear the sound
But the hunger only stayed

With all my might, I took the night
In every way I knew
How hard I try but it won't die
Staggering in the blue

Take me homeward
Or is that just a word?
Overtaken
Or did I just get took?

A step I take and all hell breaks
When the water doesn't turn to wine
The mental state, I can't relate
What they steal was never mine

And I'll allow, they took me now
'Coz truthfully, I had no choice
And if that's the fee, then leave me be
With your sweet seductive voice


Take me homeward
Or is that just a word?
Overtaken
Or did I just get took?

Step right this way and what you say
It's job number one and that's how we play
Step right inside, no need to hide
Just sign right here and we'll take that ride

Step on up, it might get rough
The New York City streets were always tough
Now step off, son, goodnight, you're done
And remember, stepping out is lots of fun

Take me homeward
Or is that just a word?
Overtaken
Or did I just get took?
