[Verse 1] [Rhythm settles into a tight, driving Go-Go groove] Got a chlorine breeze and a neon tan Every corner I turn, there's another desperate man Slicking back his hair, flashing fake gold teeth Trying to sell me some heaven underneath But I see the rust bleeding through the chrome I just want to drink my liquor alone [Pre-Chorus] So keep your cheap tequila and your pickup line Don't tell me that I'm looking mighty fine I ain't a puzzle for you to piece back together I ain't looking for a port in this heavy weather [Chorus] I don’t need a man to pull me from the wreck! I don’t need a whistle blowing down my neck! I don’t need a hand to drag me to the floor! You can leave your ego right outside my door. Yeah, I’m walking through the fire of El Dorado... And I cast my own damn shadow! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] They think a broken heart needs a quick repair A greasy smile and a hand in my hair Throwing me to the wolves in the swimming pool Thinking I’m just another lonely fool But my skin is thick and my blood runs cold I ain't buying whatever it is you sold [Pre-Chorus] So keep your cheap tequila and your pickup line Don't tell me that I'm looking mighty fine I ain't a puzzle for you to piece back together I ain't looking for a port in this heavy weather [Chorus] I don’t need a man to pull me from the wreck! I don’t need a whistle blowing down my neck! I don’t need a hand to drag me to the floor! You can leave your ego right outside my door. Yeah, I’m walking through the fire of El Dorado... And I cast my own damn shadow! [Bridge] You think I'm drowning... But I'm just floating. You think I need a rescue... But I'm just watching you sink. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] I don’t need a man to pull me from the wreck! I don’t need a whistle blowing down my neck! I don’t need a hand to drag me to the floor! You can leave your ego right outside my door. Yeah, I’m walking through the fire of El Dorado... And I cast my own damn shadow! [Outro]
