DURAN DURAN LYRICS - White Lines

"White Lines"



White! Ooh-white! White! Ooh-white!

White! Ooh-white! White! Ooh-white!

(White Lines)

Vision dreams of passion

(Going through my mind)

And all the while I think of you

(Pipeline)

A very strange reaction

(Yours to unwind)

The more I see, the more I do



Something of a phenomenon,

Telling your body to come along

Cause White Lines blow away

Blow! Rock! Blow!



Ticket to ride a white-line highway

tell all your friends they can go my way

Pay your toll, sell your soul

pound for pound it costs more than gold

The longer you stay, the more you pay

my white lines go a long way

Either up your nose or through your vein

with nothing to gain except killing your brain



Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Aaaaah...

Higher baby, get higher baby, get higher baby

and don't ever come down... Free base!



Pipeline (pure as the driven snow)

connected to my mind

(and now I'm having fun, baby!)

Highrise (it's getting kind of low)

'cause it makes you feel so nice

(I need some one on one, baby!)



Tell me it'll blow your mind away (baby)

going to your little hideaway

'Cause white lines (what do white lines do?)

blow away

Blow! - Rock! - Blow!



A million magic crystals painted pure and white

A multi-million dollars almost overnight

Twice as sweet as sugar, twice as bitter as salt

And if you get hooked baby,

it's nobody else's fault - so don't do it!



Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Aaaaah...

Higher baby, get higher baby, get higher baby

and don't ever come down... Free base!



(Don't you get too high)

Don't you get too high, baby

(It turns you on)

You really turn me on and on

(Can't you ever come down)

My temperature is rising

('Til the thrill is gone)

No, I don't want you to go



A street kid gets arrested, gonna do some time

He got out three years from now

just to commit more crime



A businessman is caught with twenty four kilos

He's out on bail, and out of jail,

and that's the way it goes!



Cane! Sugar! Cane! Sugar! Cane!



Athletes reject it - governors correct it

Gangsters, punks, and smugglers are

thoroughly respected

The money gets divided - the women get excited

Now I'm broke and it's no joke

it's hard as hell to fight it - don't buy it!



Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! - Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (say freeze, come on!)

Freeze! (say rock, come on y'all)

Rock (put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up!)

Aaaaah...
