FILL ME UP
VERSE 1
All the pennies in my pocket
Don?t even add up to a dime
Guess I don?t own very much
But what I own is mine
VERSE 2
City streets at night, deserted
No one dares to walk alone
You clutch you handbag, eyes wide open
?Cos if you blink it will be gone
CHORUS
Fill me up ? ?cos I?m runnin? on empty
Let?s blow this joint
Let?s turn around right now
Fill me up ? if there?s hope for tomorrow
Fill me up while there?s still time
VERSE 3
Double talk and double dealing
Everybody?s on the take
Preacher?s thumpin? on the Bible
Knows just how to keep you awake
VERSE 4
Charity begins at home they say
Good intentions lead to hell
They try to do-good, wish they?d stop
They might as well take my freedom as well
CHORUS
Fill me up ? ?cos I?m runnin? on empty?
BRIDGE
And the president?s pullin? faces
Maybe it?s some kinda dance
Wants me to fight for all of his oil-fields
I know I don?t stand a chance
CHORUS
Fill me up ? ?cos I?m runnin? on empty?
