    Some songs are good when they are originally recorded by the original band. And made into great rock songs once they are covered. Right here is a perfect example of that kind of song. It’s one of those songs that if you hadn’t heard the original version first. You would believe the cover was the original. D.L took this song to a new level

    So you think you'll take another piece of me
    To satisfy your intellectual need
    Do you want, do you want...Action?
    Gonna bring you down cause you're pushin' me
    You gotta recognize my superiority
    Liar, liar
    You know you believed it
    Liar, liar
    'Cause I'm the main man
    And that's why
    Everybody wants a piece of the action
    Everybody needs a main attraction
    I got what everybody needs
    Satisfaction guaranteed
    Everybody wants a piece of the action
    I was suicidal cause she was my idol
    Baby baby baby bring it to your knees
    Well there was a time I would have walked the line
    Don't you bring me down with your insatiable greed
    Liar, liar
    You know you believe me
    Liar, liar
    Cause I'm the main man
    And that's why
    Everybody wants a piece of the action
    Everybody needs a main attraction
    I got what everybody needs
    Satisfaction guaranteed
    Everybody wants a piece of the action
    Do you want
    Action! Action!
    Everybody wants, everybody needs
    Everybody wants, everybody needs
