Gimme A Slice Lyrics - The Roches

GIMME A SLICE 

by Maggie, Terre and Suzzy Roche 

Money position and power 

Flashing back to the first impression 

Hurrying year and slow hour 

Are you ready to make some concessions 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Babbling gossip and thin ice 

High flying theories and complex notions 

How many times can you think twice 

You're gonna have to go through the emotions 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Listen to the sound of the way you get around the room 

Look into the eyes of the other butterflies that loom 

Wearisome and dull weird and fantastic 

Profitless and vain brave and elastic 

All the lesser lights pale 

You pack a punch and you don't know about it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it 

Gimme a slice with everything on it
