Where the Action Is Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Where streets start getting wild
Well you're moving on down on the other side of the tracks
Would you cross that line baby, there ain't no turning back
Some raise and I don't ever wanna see that place
That's where the action is

Listen, hear the stories hear the lies
You hear the rooms they criticize
They call you everything under the moon
Then they try to buy you with diamonds and rings and rings

Move over baby gonna help you out of this mess
By the look of your face well you been here before I guess
You're hanging around, like some kinda parasite on past
And I just wanna tell you to come on let's go
And I know a place where never cold
And I know a place where the thing is sin
And I'm gonna tell you where the action is

Your momma's told you about whiskey and she's told you about beer
The shit they're drinkin' here, man, it don't got nothing
On that here
It turns you into a monster it turns your mind insane
It does things to you where you will never come back again
I don't care what your disposition is I don't care what's your name
I'm gonna tell you where the action is
