Squeeze by Steve Camp Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1983

I see the Hollywood in your eyes
You hide behind the things that money buys
You love the power, you love control
Ah, you step on people 'cause you want it all

Don’t you know the world will tease you
It will seize you
It will squeeze you until you're into its mold

The world was a very good friend of mine
It promised everything I wanted in life
Oh, it came to me with its passion and gold
I bought it for a while, it nearly cost me my soul

Don't you know the world will tease you
It will seize you
It will squeeze you, pour you into its mold
Don’t you know the world will tease you
It will seize you
It will squeeze you until you're into its mold
Generation in temptation
Oh, don't you realize your situation
But be of good cheer, Jesus Christ is here
And He overcame, oh, the world you fear

Once a week you go to church just to escape
You get your spiritual fix, now you think you're safe
Oh, be transformed by renewing your mind
You've got to live like Jesus on the firing line

Don't you know the world will tease you
Oh, it will seize you
It will squeeze you until you're into its mold

The world will tease you
It will seize you
Oh, don't let it squeeze you
Until you’re lifeless and cold, no, no

Oh, the world
Don’t let it take you now
It looks so nice to you now
But it will tease you, seize you
Until it squeezes you
And then you've lost your soul
You’ve got that Hollywood in your eyes
It looks so nice but it's just a disguise
