Another One Bites the Dust

Queen Rock English

Vocabulary from Queen: 'Another One Bites the Dust'.

Uh, let's go

Steve walks warily down the street

With his brim pulled way down low

Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet

Machine guns ready to go

Are you ready, hey, are you ready for this?

Are you hanging on the edge of your seat?

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

To the sound of the beat, yeah

Another one bites the dust

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust

Hey, I'm gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

How do you think I'm going to get along

Without you when you're gone

You took me for everything that I had

And kicked me out on my own

Are you happy, are you satisfied?

How long can you stand the heat?

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

To the sound of the beat, look out

Another one bites the dust

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust

Hey, I'm gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

Hey

Oh, take it, bite the dust, bite the dust

Hey, another one bites the dust

Another one bites the dust, ow

Another one bites the dust, hey, hey

Another one bites the dust, hah

Oh, shoot out

There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man

And bring him to the ground

You can beat him, you can cheat him

You can treat him bad and leave him

When he's down

But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you

I'm standing on my own two feet

Out of the doorway the bullets rip

Repeating to the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust

And another one gone, and another one gone

Another one bites the dust, yeah

Hey, I'm gonna get you too

Another one bites the dust

Shoot out

Yeah, alright
