| Lyrics | Banned in D.C. with a thousand more places to go Gonna swim across the Atlantic, cause that's the only place I can go You! You can't hurt me Why? I'm banned in D.C D.C We, we got ourselves Gonna sing it, gonna love it, gonna work it out to any length Don't worry, no worry, about what the people say We got ourselves, we gonna make it anyway You! You can't hurt me Why? I'm banned in D.C D.C., D.C And if you ban us from your clubs It's the right time, the right mind And if you think we really care, you won't find in my mind No! You can't afford, to close your doors, so soon no more My, oh, my, I let you down upon the ground So soon no more No! You can't afford to close your doors, so soon no more My, oh, my, I'll let you down upon the groundYou might also like |
