John Waite and Bad English

So This is Eden

(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na) - Eden
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na) - Yeah
Too far gone to turn around

As I make it into town
I said driver take my suitcase
Where's that good time goin' down
Hit the freeway to the skyline
Need some faster ecstasy
If she's got a prize
Then I've got the money
She said for you the first one's free
And I thought I saw Jesus
in the hotel room
As we made love on the balcony
With a drink in my hand

Like they said it would be yeah
So this is Eden
So this is Eden
And baby I knew it
That you'd lead me to it
I don't wanna get out
(Na na nanana nana,
na na nanana nana na)
Eden
Feel the pressure
rise in the elevator
Make our way down to the street
Soul sister sing a song for me
Drunks and junkies shuffle their feet
It's a three ring circus
Downtown Babylon
We're crashing and burning
For twenty-four hours the party goes on yeah
So this is Eden
So this is Eden
And baby I knew it
That you'd lead me to it
Nobody gets out
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
Eden nobody gets out
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
of Eden no no
Breathe in
Breathe out
Check in
Check out
It's a wild weekend
Ghost train ride to the other side
It's a funhouse suicide
It's making me feel more dead than alive yeah
So this is Eden
So this is Eden
And baby I knew it
That you'd lead me to it yeah
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
Eden, nobody gets out
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
Of Eden no no no no...
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
(Na na nanana nana, na na nanana nana na)
Check in
You won't check out
