== Lyrics ==
     Five to one baby one in five
     No one here gets out alive now
     You get yours baby I'll get mine
     Gonna make it baby if we try
     Come on, yeah!

     The old get older and the young get stronger
     May take a week and it may take longer
     They got the guns but we got the numbers
     Gonna win yeah we're taking over
     Come on, yeah

     Your ballroom days are over, baby
     Night is drawing near
     Shadows of the evening crawl across the years
     You walk across the floor with flowers in your hands
     Trying to tell me no one fucking understands
     Trade in your hours for a handful of dimes
     Gonna make it baby in our prime

     Get together one more time...

     I wanna fuck you, mother
     Fuck you!
     Get together one more time...

     Fuck you...mother

== Trivia ==
* "Five to one" was the approximate ratio of whites to blacks, young to old, and non-pot smokers to pot smokers in the US in 1967. It was also the amount of Vietnamese to American soldiers in Vietnam, although Jim Morrison said the lyrics were not political.

* Robby Krieger, The Doors guitarist, recorded this version with Marilyn Manson for the 2000 Doors tribute album ''Stoned Immaculate''.
