I am skin and bones, I am pointy nose; but it motherfuckin' makes me
try. Makes me try, and that ain't no wrong. I'll tell you why... There ain't
no right! Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right. Only pleasure and pain.
Motherfuckin' bad wind came, ble
w down my home. Now the green grass
grows. Bad wind came, blew down my home. Goddamn goodness knows! Where green
grass grows there can't be wrong. And goodness knows, there ain't no right!
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right. Only pleasure and pain.
Bumped my head, I'm a battering ram. Goddamn took the pain. Cut
myself, said "So what?" Motherfuckin' took the pain. Said "So what?," I can't
be wrong. I thought so but there ain't no right! Ain't no wrong now, ain't no
right. Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right. Only pleasure and pain.
Here we go now
Home...
Home...
Home...

a sea of grass
and disappeared among
the shady blades...
children all
ran over me
screaming tag!

he trips her as
her sandals fail
she says stop!
i'm a girl...
whose fingernails are made
of mother's pearl...
yellow buttercup

the crazy bee
mad about somebody...
me and my girlfriend
don't wear no shoes
her nose is painted pepper
sunlight...
she loves me
i mean it's serious
as serious can be...
she sings a song and
i listen to what it says:
if you want a friend
feed any animal...
there was so much space
i cut me a piece
with some fine wine
it brought peace to my mind
in the summertime...
and it rolled
summer....
oh...
oh.... the summertime rollsOAA

Three days was the morning. My focus three days old. My head, it
landed to the sounds of cricket bows... I am proud man anyway... Covered now
by three days...
Three ways was the morning. Three lovers, in three ways. We knew when
she landed, three days she'd stay. I am a proud man anyway... Covered now by
three days...
We saw shadows of the morning light the shadows of the evening sun till
the shadows and the light were one. Shadows of the morning light the shadows
of the evening sun till the shadows and the light were one...
True hunting is over. No herds to follow. Without game, men prey on
each other. The family weakens by the bite we swallow...
True leaders gone, of land and people. We choose no kin but adopted
strangers. The family weakens by the length we travel... All of us with
wings... All of us with wings... All of us with wings! All of us with wings!
All of us with wings! All of us with wings!
Erotic Jesus lays with his Marys. Loves his Marys. Bits of puzzle,
hitting each other. All now with wings! "Oh my Marys! Never wonder... Night
is shelter for nudity's shiver..." All now with wings...
Man ain't meant to work
C'mon build a machine!
So we can sleep and make love deeper
Later we can dance and we can drink!
Man ain't meant to work
C'mon build a machine!
So we can live for our own pleasure
Please yourself!
Please your queens!
Early morning the sun is yawning
I am not kind yet
I am certain, I have no doubt
Life is for playing
Days like these I hardly disagree
So what!
That's my conclusion
wish I was ocean size
they cannot move you
no one tries
no one pulls you
out from your hole
like a tooth aching a jawbone
I was made with a heart of stone
to be broken
with one hard blow
we seen the ocean
brake on the shore
come together with no harm done
It ain't easy living...
I want to be
as deep
as the ocean
mother ocean
some people tell me
home is in the sky
in the sky lives a spy
I want to be more like the ocean
no talking
all action....
no talking
had a dad
big and strong
turned around
found my daddy gone
he was the one

I've been caught stealing
Once when I was 5
I enjoy stealing
It's just as simple as that
Well, it's just a simple fact
When I want something, I don't want to pay for it
I walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey all right!
If I get by, it's mine
Mine all mine!
My girl, she's one too
She'll go and get her a shirt
Stick it under her skirt
She grabbed a razor for me
And she did it just like that
When she wants something, she don't want to pay for it
She walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey all right!
If I get by, it's mine
Mine all mine!
We sat around the pile
We sat and laughed
We sat and laughed and waved it into the air!
And we did it just like that
When we want something, we don't want to pay for it
We walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey, all right!

What makes a kettle whistle?
What makes gold precious?
How come some people, they'll show you everything?
How come some people, they don't like nothing at all?
Well I know why. . .
We all want to be
Beautiful too. . .Beautiful too. . .What makes a baby cry?
What makes a poor baby older than a rich one?
And why do we need to belong to someone else. . .
Well I know why. . .
We all want to be. . .
Beautiful too. . .
Hey man where did you go?
Thought I, but I guess
I don't know you
Gave you my heart
You looked to take it apart
Hey man what did you do?
Walked away we weren't through
Last time was a fake shaken head
Now I think it must be said
Hey man
Can't be everybody's friend
Hey man
Can't be everybody's friend
Man of peace
Man of war
Tell me who knows more?
People gathering by the well
I think we could meet up again
Hey man
Can't be everybody's friend
Hey man
Can't be everybody's friend
Hey man
Can't be everybody's friend
Ain't no way man
[Instrumental]
Sit with me now
Will watch the dusk
Sun falling on
The two of us
Let's set our hearts
To match the sun
Were right on time
Here it comes
The countdown is starting now
It's coming to a sweet end
I aim my messy headstrong
I'm coming fast and furious
Curiosity don't
Kill us before we've
Thrown
Arms
Let's set our hearts to match the sun
When it goes down
For keeping sake, a sign for all time
So we both know, oh
In the wind I wander
I don''t know where I'll end up
Do what I can to get home
Right there baby
There in between twilight
Finish the day into
Night
When
We'll meet up
Again
Let's set our hearts to match the sun
When it goes down
For keeping sake, a sign for all time
So we both know, oh
I'll give my name to dress you up
Use it to express us
Mean us at the same time
A name you can claim me as your prince, my princess
Stretch out our royal line
It grows longer
Knowing the sun will set on time
And knowing you know your heart beats close to mine
From where you are
You'll see our mark
Signing our name
All across the colored sky
Just in time to match the sun
comin' down the mountain
one of many children
everybody has
their own poinion
everybody has
their own opinion
holding it back
hurts so bad
jumping out of my flesh
and i said -
cash in!
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now baby!
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now baby!
i was comin down the mountain

she was holding it back
it hurts do bad
jumping out of her flesh
and i said -
cash in
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now baby!
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now baby!
My cat's name is Maceo
He's a little man in a cats body
He yawns just like I do
He's convinced I won't eat him
I think he thinks that I'm his dad
Because I saved him from the pound
Well we went down
Down to the pound and that's where we saw Maceo
Cat catcher said to me
"pick one out"
Maceo said
"let me out"
He sleeps right where I do and we wrestle in the morning!
He come to you if you don't bother him
He just likes to do his own thing
My cat's name is Maceo
Now her paints are dry... And I looked outside... At the corner
boys... Ayh, oh, where did you go? I don't know.
I went to see your pictures... I spread them across the floor... So
this is where they are shown... Now they're probably saying to you, "If you
keep it up you'll be born." But you won't ever listen, I'll bet...
Burnt out, grass scorched by the sun. The buildings remain. We will
beat them all to dust, I'll bet...
Pulled from a headless shell that blinked on and off, "Hotel." no
w the
nameless dwell. They hold your key and turn your know, I'll bet...
Will you say hello to my ma? Will you pay a visit to her? She was an
artist, just as you were. I'd have introduced you to her. She would take me
out on Sundays. We'd go laughing through the garbage. She repaired legs like
a doctor on the kitchen chairs we sat on. She was unhappy, just as you were.
Unhappy, just as you were. Unhappy, just as you were. Unhappy, just as you
were...
Standing in the shower thinking
About what makes a man
An outlaw or a leader
I'm thinking about power...
The ways a man could use it
Or be destroyed by it
The water hits my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...
Standing
In the shower
Thinking...
Standing in the shower thinking
About a man I know don't like me
He don't like the place I'm headed
Same place he's headed...
I know he'd beat me to it
If he could but he won't do it
But he would man
If he could...
And the water is piping hot..
The water is piping hot
It beats upon my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...
Standing
In the shower
Thinking...
Standing in the shower thinking
Is my woman afraid of me?
She's seen how far I've twisted
It's just cause I can trust her
And ever since we met
She understood so she let
Me twist her good...
I twist her good...
And the water is piping hot
The water is piping hot
It beats upon my neck
And I'm pissing on myself...
Standing
In the shower
She's so lucky that she had to suffer some
Left her happy home began to drink and slum
She's got problems?
C'mon name me one?
She makes problems
Like makin' new friends
She had to suffer some
Be like everyone
Had to suffer some
She gets in free down at the scream
Oh yeah
All night running through her living room
All her sucked up her friends and daughter too
You poor mother! You cashed your little one in
For a three bag fill up and a new syringe
She had to suffer some
Be like everyone
Had to suffer some
Was in the pink now she's in the blue
Oh yeah
And you know
She's seen better days
Did you hear?
How far she's gone?
Far away
Far away
She's gone far away
May be the last song you'll be sung
Ain't no sweet left in that emotion
She's got problems
And more problems to come
'cause it's worse than murder
That's what you done
Now you go suffer!
Yeah she had to suffer some
Be like every one
Had to suffer some
Was in the pink baby's feeling blue?
Yeah she had to suffer some
Be like every one
Had to suffer some
She gets in free

When I was a boy,
My big brother held on to my hands,
Then he made me slap my own face.
I looked up to him then, and still do.
He was trying to teach me something.
Now I know what it was!
Now I know what he meant!
Now I know how it is!
One must eat the other
Who runs free before him.
Put them right into his mouth
While fantasizing the beauty of his movements.
A sensation not unlike
Slapping yourself in the face...
Slapping yourself in the face...
If I were you
I'd better watch out
When was the last time
You did anything
Just for me
Or any one else
Just because?
Just because?
You, you really should have known
Yeah you, you really should have known
Just because
Just because
You got the most
But nobody loves you
Nobody has to
Just because
Just because
You, you really should have known
Yeah you, I think you really should have known
Just because
Just because
When we first met
We passed around gifts
That was a long time ago
And yours didn''t fit
Yeah you, you really should have known
Yeah you, oh you really should have known
Just because
Just because
She said, do you think you could?
And I said, yeah, in a second. . .
I'm sitting by a waterfall and when the people jump in
They hold their nose and kiss these walls
Granite walls, water-polished walls
Just don't ever want to move from this spot
You can sit here for so long!
There's a slide, suislide, you can live or die
Going down, going down, go down!
Boy came to the side
I said, "You want to go down that slide?"
He said, "No man, hey you got a joint to sell me?"
We just smoked one, we got a roach we said. . .
"I'll smoke the roach!"
But first go down that slide man
Go on down, go on down, go on down!
I'm sitting by a waterfall. . .
Could bear to watch the people sit and fall
You know the plants on the rocks are crazy
Thinking that they could start a life
On the spiral walls of a waterfall!
Slow divers?

Ain't no way man
In the city there is something to see
In the city there is nothing to breathe
I'm goin' 'bout my business
I'm wondering what I'm missing
And on my way home, I hid in my coat
Wrote my name on the city wall
Being famous
In the city there is a park bench you can sleep out on
The city there is a trash can you can eat out of
I'm goin' 'bout my business
Wondering what I'm missing
And on my way home a cop said "No"
I said "There is a man with a stick and a gun in his hand"
Being famous. . .
Red man in the city
Poor man in the city
Black man in the city
Fat man in the city
Red man
Black man
Fat man

Gang is a weapon

I had no life
I had no love
I was a bug
I had no mirror
wore dirty clothes
over and over
The day I saw her
my mind was set...
I'll never forget
I have not failed her yet
I've got a reason now to live
that love
she's right here beside me
we're high up above
I've got a reason now to live
that love
oh, I've got a reason
It's the ultimate
ooh, it's the ultimate
love
I had to close the distance that
lay between us
I had a plan that we elope
upon the "Jaws of death"
and with the roaring sea below...
With God as our witness
it all began to hit us
I began to take in
the magical island
intoxication
I've got a reason now to live
that love
she's right here beside me
we're high up above
oh, I've got a reason now to live
that love
oh, I've got a reason
It's the ultimate
yeah, it's the ultimate
Power tripping your luck is switched
Oh, so now it's funny
When it's your turn is to laugh
You go poke the running joke!
Scoring points with God
Get no perfect marks
But your grades keep falling
How you treat the weak is
Your true nature calling
Porn chick calls herself a therapist
Call it what it is...
For all the money in the world
We'll go to war you backward hero's
Come to rescue you
Just to lien on you
With interests soaring
How you treat the weak is
Your true nature calling
Please believe
We still live and breathe
Through native tongue
And poetry
All those years we believed, yeah
Scoring points with God
Get no perfect marks
But your grades keep falling
How you treat the weak is
I try and get some love from up high
there just ain't enough to go around
How you doing bro-is New York
holding you up, or is it letting you down?
I have
missed you all heaps and I've re-planted
my feet back in the underground
I'm a hustler
hustler!
I'll never give up the underground
I came back to pay respect
to another fallen angel
at the old canteen
someone had to float the cash
to pay up for the wake and so we all agreed
We're all hustlers
hustlers!
I try and get some love from up high
there just ain't enough to go around
someone had to pay up for the wakes
taking place down in the underground
We're all hustlers
hustlers!
I try and get some love from up high
there just ain't enough to go around
someone had to pay up for the wakes
Save the complaints
For a party conversation.
The world is loaded,
It's lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop...
No one...
No one!
No way!
Gonna stop,
Now; go!
Farm people,
Book wavers, soul savers,
Love preachers!
Lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop.
No one...
One come a day, the water will run,
No man will stand for things that he had done...
Hurrah!
And the water will run...
One come a day, the water will run,
No man will stand for things that he had done...
Hurrah!
And the water will run...
Will Run!
Will Run!
Gimmie that!
Gimmie that - your automobile,
Turn off that smokestack
And that goddamn radio
Hum... along with me...
Hum along with the t.v.
No one's
Gonna
You messed with the wrong girl
She but small but she's fierce
She shattered the glass out
With the highs of a heel
You led with the wrong line
When you called her c*** and all
So what make's a guy think
That it hurts a girl?
It don't hurt a girl
She loves her dangerous play
Kicks and screams as she dances
Keeps a pretty face
You messed with the wrong girl
She has her ways and means
Laughs at the traffic
From the easy streets
Enters in cages
With no bites when she leaves
If guys are too rough now
Then that's what you think!
It don't hurt a girl
She loves her dangerous play
Kicks and screams as she dances
Keeps a pretty face
She's like a mother eagle
Come'n down
She's like a mother eagle
Come'n down
Oh now she's cutting every corner
She's tearin' up the grass
'cause cars ain't for parkin' man
A car's what you pass
It don't stop a girl
She loves her dangerous play
Kicks and screams as she dances
Keeps a pretty face
Oh, I love her pretty face!
I love her pretty face!
There's birds up in the trees
my words they want to eat
they wait for me to speak
they swoop in and swallow them down
There's people on the ground
hungry for some beats to pound
don't need no bread
they just scream for a morsel of
sound!
more sound!
right out
took the words
right out of my mouth
Then you came into the room
everybody was-bam!
she must be a rockette?
one said done and the others said
wow!
oh wow!
right out
took the words
right out of my mouth
Then when I stared back
into your eyes
we had the same expression
complete surprise
and we're about to let it out
these words from my mouth
He said
wow!
oh wow!
right out
took the words
right out of my mouth
There's birds up in the trees!
Camera got them images
Camera got them all
Nothing's shocking...
Showed me everybody
Naked and disfigured
Nothing's shocking...
And then he came
Now sister's
Not a virgin anymore
Her sex is violent...
The T.V.'s got them images
T.V.'s got them all
It's not shocking!
Every half an hour
Someone's captured and
The cop moves them along...
It's just like the show before
The news is
Just another show
With sex and violence...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent!
I am the killer of people
You look like a meatball
I'll throw away your toothpick
And ask for your giveness
Because of this thing!
Because of this thing!
Because of this thing!
That's in me
Is it not in you?
Is it not your problem?
A baby to a mother...
You talk too much
To your scapegoat
That's what I say
He tells you everyone is stupid
That's what he thinks!
Snapshots
Make a girl look cheap
Like a tongue extended
A baby's to a mother
Sex is violent!
Sex is violent!
Sex is violent!
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
What's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners, saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name
But what's puzzling you
Save the complaints for a party conversation.
The world is loaded, it's lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop...
No one... No one! No way! Gonna stop, now; go!
Farm people, book wavers, soul savers, love preachers!
Lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop.
One come a day, the water will run,
No man will stand for things that he had done...
Hurrah!
And the water will run...
One come a day, the water will run,
No man will stand for things that he had done...
Hurrah!
And the water will run...
Will Run!
Will Run!
Gimmie that!
Gimmie that -- your automobile, turn off that smokestack and
That goddamn radio - hum... along with me...
Hum along with the t.v. A-a-a-a-m-m-m-m-m-m.
Jenny said when she was just five years old
You know there's nothing happenin' at all
Every time she puts on the radio
There was nothing going down at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by rock 'n' roll
Despite all the amputations
You could just dance to a rock 'n' roll station
And it was alright
Jenny said when she was just five years old
My parents are gonna be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two Cadillac cars
Ain't gonna help us at all
Then one fine mornin' she puts on a New York station
She don't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
You know her life was saved by rock 'n' roll
Despite all the computations
You could just dance to a rock 'n ' roll station
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung
Would you hear my voice come through the music?
Would you hold it near as it were your own?
It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken
Perhaps they're better left unsung
I don't know, I don't really care
Let there be songs to fill the air
Ripple in still water
Where there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
If your cup is full may it be again
Let it be known there is a fountain
That was not made by the hands of men
There is a road, no simple highway
Between the dawn and the dark of night
And if you go no one may follow
That path is for your steps alone
Ripple in still water
Where there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow
You who choose to lead must follow
But if you fall you fall alone
If you should stand then who's to guide you?
Pets
(janes addiction)
Children are innocent
A teenager's fucked up in the head
Adults are even more fucked up
And elderlies are like children
Will there be another race
To come along and take over for us?
Maybe martians could do
Better than we've done
We'll make great pets!
My friend says we're like the dinosaurs
Only we are doing ourselves in
Much faster than they
Ever did
Wish I was ocean size
They cannot move you
No one tries
No one pulls you
Out from your hole
Like a tooth aching a jawbone
I was made with a heart of stone
To be broken
With one hard blow
I've seen the ocean
Break on the shore
Come together with no harm done
It ain't easy living
I want to be
As deep
As the ocean
Mother ocean
Some people tell me
Home is in the sky
In the sky lives a spy
I want to be more like the ocean
No talking
All action...
No talking
Jane says
I'm done with sergio
He treats me like a ragdoll
She hides
The television
Says 'i don't owe him nothing,
But if he comes back again
Tell him to wait right here for me or,
Try again tomorrow'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
Jane says
'Have you seen my wig around?
I feel naked without it'
She knows
They all want her to go
But that's ok man
She don't like them anyway
Jane says
'I'm going away to spain when i get my money saved
I'm gonna start tomorrow'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
'I'm gonna kick tomorrow...'
She gets mad
And she starts to cry
Takes a swing but she can't hit!
She don't mean no harm
She just don't know...
What else to do about it
Jane goes
To the store at eight
She walks up on st. andrews
She waits
And gets her dinner there
She pulls her dinner
From her pocket
Jane says
'I've never been in love - no'
She don't know what it is
She only knows if someone wants her
'I only want 'em if they want me,...'
'I only know they want me...'
Jane says...
Next time
I'll have somewhere else to be,
I'm running away from you....
Can't take being besieged.
Knowing that I got some scar on you
Knowing that I held the ground to you
I'm trying
Just to see the bigger picture, oh
Be the bigger man
Don't hit first, resist attack
But know
I'll hit you back
Knowing that I got some scar on you
Knowing that I held the ground to you
Knowing that I knocked you down
Knowing that I let my tongue go
I aimed and I let my rounds out..on you!
Do I have to be the bigger man?
Always the better man?
Forget that! Forget that! Forget that!
I wanna hot you back - ooh
Hit you back, yeah!
Hit you back - oh
Hit you back, yeah!
Hit you back..
Knowing that I got some scar on you
Knowing that I held the ground to you
Knowing that I knocked you down
Knowing that I let my tongue go
Had a dad
Big and strong
Turned around
Found my daddy gone
He was the one
Made me what I am today
Its up to me now
My daddy has gone away
Well I spoke to the mountain
I listened to the sea
Both told me that fountain
Was the best that you can be
My daddy's hand it growed
Slow to the lickin'
Sonny boy
Grow to whip him
If you see my dad
Tell him my brothers
All gone mad
They're beating on each other
I walked around
Even tried to call
Got that funny feeling
He's not there
You sit around there telling stories
Taking chips from old past glories
I had never thought that you weigh
A single left, choose
With some parts that you can't use
That's why I never liked your pity parties
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew you back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still flying hell
You talk about me so much
That I think that you're in love with me
Yea, you do, it's true man, your busted
You talk about me to your friends
Or anyone with time to listen
You can never ever be trusted
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew you back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still flying hell
End to the lies, End to the lies
End to the lies, End to the lies
Now you
You were the foreskin
I was the real head
You were the foreskin
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew you back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still flying hell
End to the lies, End to the lies
End to the lies, End to the lies
End to the lies, End to the lies
What I feel
is different than the word love
love is for fools
what I feel
isn't foolish
we don't suffer fools
we our fool them
I look at your picture
one day you decide
to never age
save yourself
took yourself out of the picture
didn't you? didn't you?
Curiosity kills
curiosity thrills
it's what we're on
it's a mean mean end
curiosity kills
Could not keep
your mind off of it
wouldn't hear
what anyone said
you could run, make a new start
just hid yourself
out in the backyard
Curiosity kills
curiosity thrills
it's what we're on
it's a mean mean end
curiosity kills
Look away, look away
but you couldn't look away
look away, look away
something made you stop and stare
that day
Curiosity kills
curiosity thrills
it's what we're on
it's a mean mean end
In the city there is something to see
In the city there is nothing to breathe
I'm goin' 'bout my business
I'm wondering what I'm missing
And on my way home
I hid in my coat
Wrote my name on the city wall
Being famous
In the city there is a park bench you can sleep out on
The city there is a trash can you can eat out of
I'm goin' 'bout my business
Wondering what I'm missing
And on my way home a cop said "no"
I said
"There is a man with a stick and a gun in his hand"
Being famous...
Red man in the city
Poor man in the city
Black man in the city
Fat man in the city
Red man
Black man
Fat man
Blue man
I don't know the rest of the words
I chip away
Cause I'm not ok
So I
I chip away
Poked a hole right into myself
And inside I found someone
Who said I was O.K.
Still I don't feel easy
On this tree
Among the blossoms
Caustically
I am the thorn
Close my eyes to take up spare time
I wish I just
Could be where the crowd goes
With the crowd
They must be going somewhere
Up from the catacombs
I ran into the angel again
He took the high road
And I took the low road
We both were dirty faces
We both were dirty faces
I don't
I don't
I don't
Don't feel easy
I don't
I don't
I don't
I've been caught stealing;
Once when I was 5...
I enjoy stealing.
It's just as simple as that.
Well, it's just a simple fact.
When I want something, I don't want to pay for it.
I walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey all right! If I get by, it's mine.
Mine all mine!
My girl, she's one too.
She'll go and get her a shirt.
Stick it under her skirt.
She grabbed a razor for me.
And she did it just like that.
When she wants something,
She don't want to pay for it.
She walk right through the door.
Hey all
Right! If I get by, it's mine.
Mine all mine!
We sat around the pile.
We sat and laughed.
We sat and laughed and waved it into the air!
And we did it just like that.
When we want something, we don't want to pay for it.
We walk right through the door.
Walk right through the door.
Hey, all right!
I am skin and bones, I am pointy nose;
But it motherfuckin' makes me try.
Makes me try, and that ain't no wrong.
I'll tell you why...
There ain't no right!
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
Only pleasure and pain.
Motherfuckin' bad wind came, blew down my home.
Now the green grass grows.
Bad wind came, blew down my home.
Goddamn goodness knows!
Where green grass grows there can't be wrong.
And goodness knows, there ain't no right!
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
Only pleasure and pain.
Bumped my head, I'm a battering ram.
Goddamn took the pain.
Cut myself, said 'So what?'
Motherfuckin' took the pain.
Said 'So what?'
I can't be wrong.
I thought so but there ain't no right!
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.
I had no mother
I felt no trust
no family structure
yes, I've been busted
I laid my bed out
in my back seat
under the stars is
where I would eat
Ooh sometimes I got lucky-I
I got nailed too
real good...
she was way over my head
couldn't help myself
hid my past from you
To fit in
to fit in to
ooh and yes get in bed with you
I had to
have a way of
telling tales
somewhat twisted
Told you white lies
I used white magic
need you to know
I'm not a reject
I've been committed-but
not for a long time
long over that and
you can believe it
Ooh sometimes I got lucky-I
I got nailed too
real good...
she was way over my head
couldn't help myself
hid my past from you
To fit in
to fit in to
ooh and yes get in bed with you
I had to
have a way of
telling tales
somewhat twisted
Oh twisted
Way down low where the streets are littered
I find my fun with the freaks and the niggers
I don't want much man give me a little
Or I'm gonna take my chances if i get em
I love them whores they never judge you
They cast that pearl and it don't upset 'em
They take their chances if they get 'em
Hear me go off!
Give me some more!
Motherfucker!
Need a little more!
Goddamn you!
Give me some more!
Motherfucker!
Give me some more!

Need a little more!
Goddamn you!

some are o.k.
summers gone
some are makin love
i love to watch you
love to watch you
drip away
trip away

Three days was the morning.
My focus three days old.
My head, it landed to the sounds of cricket bows...
I am proud man anyway...
Covered now by three days...
Three ways was the morning.
Three lovers, in three ways.
We knew when she landed, three days she'd stay.
I am a proud man anyway...
Covered now by three days...
We saw shadows of the morning light
The shadows of the evening sun
Till the shadows and the light were one.
Shadows of the morning light
The shadows of the evening sun
Till the shadows and the light were one...
True hunting is over.
No herds to follow.
Without game, men prey on each other.
The family weakens by the bite we swallow...
True leaders gone, of land and people.
We choose no kin but adopted strangers.
The family weakens by the length we travel...
All of us with wings...
All of us with wings...
All of us with wings!
All of us with wings!
All of us with wings!
All of us with wings!
Erotic Jesus lays with his Marys.
Loves his Marys.
Bits of puzzle, hitting each other.
All now with wings!
'Oh my Marys! Never wonder... Night is shelter for nudity's shiver...'
I loved standing by the water and just knowing what it's for
It's all right to swim and sip it- let me have a little more
Like my woman like my shower- get them hot until their steaming
Love to find a little spot- nice and shady that's for dreamin' of the riches
Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Ready or not man, I'm come'n in
Into the life
Into the life
Into to the life of riches!
Stretching out in the sun- like a cat in the window
Hillside changing color- as I'm watching shadows throw
I'm laughing that is rich- it puts my stomach in a stitches
Early birdie from a perch- looking down can see all the worlds' riches
Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Ready or not man, I'm come'n in
Into the life
Into the life
Into to the life of riches!
I'm never lookin' over my shoulder again
Want to buy my time and finally own my fate
If you tell me no then I really must insist
And when the hunt is over kiss me on my lips
Kisses!
So let's talk 'bout our plan- you can count is gonna work
Carry on feel immortal- at the risk of getting hurt
I'm praying that it rains- so some day we'll be sowin'
Living through a little pain- no complainin' as were trainin' for the riches
Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Oh, all of a sudden
There you are
I'm happy that the sky is blue and that the earth is green
And that there's lots of fresh clean air sandwiched in between
I love watching as the snow makes brushes out of trees
And swinging from the tops of my guarantees
I'm happy that the sky is blue and that the earth is green
And that there's lots of fresh clean air sandwiched in between
I love watching as the snow makes brushes out of trees
I always do the wrong thing
But for a very good reason
Always do it wrong
But it feels right
So forgive me now
And forgive me later
I'll pay you back
I always do the wrong thing
For a very good reason
Always do it wrong
But it feels right
I could have it, but I walked away
Now I won't miss out, not even one day!
What I lost off the line
I bring back all in my good time
There ain't no other way
Because this is
The price
It's the price
Always the price I pay
I see you, you're going places
So, let's get the hell out of here!
I'm a big liver man at the table
I got my long c*** drawn
I'm able to lay you out!
There ain't no other way
Because this is
The price
It's the price
Always the price I pay
Always having a good time
Always searchin' for more
Flying now
Paying later
I'm flyin' now!
I'm layin' in a bath of hot water
Hot water always my case
Finally nothing to say
Just put the cloth right over my face
There ain't no other way
Because this is
The price
It's the price
Always the price I pay
I got to thrust it out!
The price that I pay
I got to get it out!
Always
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
yeah
You were smiling by my table
Had to call up everyone that day
A beautiful mind and body
What a happy ending I see
My mind had been enabled
In a memory you overflowed
Want to be your superhero
Even if I tumble fall
I'm ok
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately
Brick or stone cannot hurt me
Madmen around the city go
They attack I'll bring them down
Making their chances super low
Oh my my, pretty naval
Dimple cheek, a face I adore
Want to be your superhero
Fallin' from a running horse
I'm ok
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately
I oh, I
Hold to that elusion
I, oh I
I'm not your average guy
Other guys they won't dare to
Join the line in order you peck
When they introduced me to you
My face had turned to super red
Your steady beck and call boy
Play'n on the piano
Want to be your superhero
Not afraid to tumble fall
I'm ok
You have that effect on me
But I need you desperately
You know I need you desperately
Want to be your superhero
Yeah I want to be your superhero
I want to be your superhero
Oh I want to be your superhero
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Who's car am I driving in?
You picked up a handful
I can't remember your name?
I always seem to get lost
But I'm always finding trouble
Oh, I'm always finding trouble
And the road it fades away
And the road it's getting thinner
Get by on my personality
My name?
My name is baby
I'm camera ready, smiling and thrilled
A real a cooperator
Oh, I'm so cooperative
And the road it fades away
And the road it's getting thinner
And the road it fades away
And the road it's getting thinner
Ladies clink their glasses
Pretend to run off men
Sending out their signals
Into the night
Timing it right
No one listened to me back home
But your talking partners?
Like jumping in bed !?
The night is swelling off we go
Shoulder to shoulder
Man, you're pretty deep
And the road it fades away
And the road it's getting thinner
And the road it fades away
And the road it's getting thinner
This is my lucky day!
I'm just a pick up stray!
Just a pick up stray!
Just a pick up stray!
Oh I have to tip-toe around so is not to make a loud sound - Ohh
Oh what you put her through look at her tryin' not to wake-up the girl -
What was she thinkin' tryin' to keep up with you every hell that you have -
It's cause she loves you so, don't tell her she not lookin' so good - Ohh
Just, splash a little water on it, see what you're working with
Splash a little water on it, and see what comes alive
Last night oh-oh it almost all went up in smoke
You cannot choke without them knowing
You keep on going
We been drinkin' and smoking til 4 - 5 or 6 in the morning - Oh
I take a splash of water to bring me around and get going - Oh
You gotta treat her like a flower, man, women need time to recover - oh
I flex at my reflection heading into the town a great hunter - yeah
I didn't want to wake you up, it's over there
I left some water in the cup, on the stand
I'll call you later, I just don't know when
Will this remind you of your man? Forever...
Hey, you don't know me! You don't know me but you just keep on looking
at me down low. Oh no! Digging something up... Digging something up...
Always digging something up... Oh no!
Hey you! I don't know you. I don't even want to, but you just kee
looking at me down low. Oh no! Digging something up... Digging something
up... Always digging something up... Oh no! And you make it so *#... Make
it so obvious...
Hey you! Fools don't fit in the boots that I tread in, but you just
keep on looking at me down low. Oh no! Digging something up... Digging
something up... Always digging something up... Oh no! And you make it so
*#... but do you get it? Make it so *#... you never get it. You got to owe
me something before you know what is joke and what is up. I worked my fingers
to the bone and I won't let you stop me going up. Why do you have to make it
so!-so!-so!-so!-so! OBVIOUS!? Oh no! Oh no... Oh no... Oh no...
All I can say is that the Velvet Underground is great
When I’m sittin' watching puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two and
Maybe even speak my point of view but it's not sane
Nooooh
It’s not sane
I just want someone to say to me maybe oh ho oh ho
I'll always be there when you wake
Yeah ha
You know I like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And don't ya know that I start to complain when there’s
no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake and every
It rips a little of my life away but it’s a great
escape
(and everyday we need it!)
Escape...escape...escape
Yeah
Ah aha ha
All I can say is that the Velvet Underground is great
When I’m sittin' watching puddles gather rain
And all I can do Is just pour some tea for two and
Maybe even speak my point of view but it's not sane
Nooooh

I just want someone to say to me maybe oh ho oh ho
I'll always be there when you wake
Yeah ha
You know I like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And don't ya know that I start to complain when there’s
no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake and every
It rips a little of my life away but it’s a great
escape
(and everyday we need it!)
Escape...escape...escape
All I can say ya know that my life it’s a pretty plain
And I like your point of view
Its not sane... it’s not sane
I just want someone to say to me maybe oh ho oh ho
I'll always be there when you wake
Yeah ha
You know I like to keep my cheeks dry today
I'm a white dread-I'm a white dread, so? I'm a got a ring and I hang
it from my nose. Got a little game and I take it to the park. I don't care
who plays as long as the game is on.
My sister and her boyfriend slept in the park. She had to leave hom
'cause he was dark. Now they parade around in New York with a baby boy... He's
gorgeous! Ain't nobody leaving! No one's leaving...
Blacks call each other "brother and sis'." Count me in 'cause I been
missed. I've seen color changed by a kiss. Ask my brother and my sister.

Wish I knew everyone's nickname, all their slang and all their sayings.
Every way to show affection, how to dress to fit the occasion... Wish we all
waved... All waved... All waved... I wish we all! Wish we all! Wish we all

We didn't know that it would blow up
With such might
The stars are even brighter
Contrasted by the night
Sent out shock waves
Filled up the outer space
Even the ghost came
To the late, late, late show
Watch us play
Everything went tossing
Everyone was talking
Making up their faces
Wonder what we look like naked?
Ah the irresistible force met the immovable object
Ah the irresistible force met the immovable object
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging
Together
We've become a big business
A galaxy merger
The two of us a big bang
God is a real man
God is a dad (x2)
Ah! The irresistible force met the immovable object
Ah! The irresistible force met the immovable object
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging together
Ah! The irresistible force met the immovable object
Ah! Some may call me a lucky shot
No, but it was not
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging
Banging and banging
