Whatever it Takes Lyrics
Stone climbs together
She cashed in and cut the tether
She's gone, it's no mistake
The angels have come too late
They've come too late
In my hands I hold the proof
That's something sure to hit you
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
Then she turned off her headlights
Cranked the radio, ran the red lights
Never found the missing bride
Windows dark, but they're all inside
They're all inside...
In my hands, I hold the proof
That's something sure to hit you
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
A general without an army
I stopped looking, then they found me
On the hill, a horn is blowin'
It's over man, you just don't know it
That's something sure to hit you
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
Climb backward through the rec room
A jungle of thieves to get through
Time's up, how long you gonna waste?
Whatever it takes.
So Jack, grab paper and pen
I'll say it once, won't say it again
Loosen the core until it shakes
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
She cashed in and cut the tether
She's gone, it's no mistake
The angels have come too late
They've come too late
That's something sure to hit you
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
Cranked the radio, ran the red lights
Never found the missing bride
Windows dark, but they're all inside
They're all inside...
That's something sure to hit you
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
I stopped looking, then they found me
On the hill, a horn is blowin'
It's over man, you just don't know it
Pure flesh and bone to rip through
Don't let 'em tie you to the stake
Whatever it takes
Flood waters raise the ramparts
I'll meet you now, wherever you are
I'm here until the front line breaks
Whatever it takes
A jungle of thieves to get through
Time's up, how long you gonna waste?
Whatever it takes.
So Jack, grab paper and pen
I'll say it once, won't say it again
Loosen the core until it shakes
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
