My first sip made me gag
And I thought I was gonna blow beets
But I took another and pretty soon brother
Sour man started tasting sweet
Made me feel brave and strong
Bulletproof, like I could do no wrong
But I found out before too long
What I should've known
You can learn to love anything
Even a bird in a cage will sing a song
Even it's wrong
Even if it kills you in the end
You can learn to love anything
Trade your heart and soul for a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
Pick your poison
Poison
Pick your poison
Ruby lips hid a razor tongue
And heart, blue as glacier ice
I was warned, but I was willing
To ignore everybody's advice
The more I gave, the more she took
She walked away without a second look
Just one more page from the great big book
On how
You can learn to love anything
Even a bird in a cage will sing a song
Even if it's wrong
Even if it kills you in the end
You can learn to love anything
Trade your heart and soul for a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
You can learn to love anything
A prison wall, a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
Pick your poison
Poison
(You can learn)
Pick your poison
Pick your poison
(You can learn)
Pick your poison
Poison
Poison
Pick your poison
Your a cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
(Don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
(Too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison I don't wanna break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins
(And pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't wanna touch you but you're under my skin
(Deep in)
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison I don't wanna break these chains, poison
One look
(One look)
Could kill
(Could kill)
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
(Don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
(Too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison I don't wanna break these chains, poison
(Poison)
I wanna love you but I better not touch
(Don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
(Too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Yeah, well I don't wanna break these chains, poison
(Poison)
Runnin' deep inside my veins
Burnin' deep inside my brain, poison
(Poison)
I don't wanna break these chains
(Poison)
(Poison)
Poison
Help me
I'm in disgrace
Witness slow death
All over my face
Help me
Pick up my heart
Tell my friends
Wherever they are
Listen
They stole my dream
New corruption
Know what I mean?
Listen
Do you think I don't know?
I've got a face like metal
And a radio
Listen up
Listen up good
New man's fame
Is new man's poison
Stand up
Stand up and fight
Stand up I won't quit so
Stand up and play
Stand up
Stand up and scream
Stand up I won't run so
Stand up and lose
Listen up
Listen up good
Innocence
Is new corruption
Memories?
I don't need
A dead museum
And a grudge to feed
Memories
Rewrite shame
Rearrange the feelings
To ease your pain
Big lie
So this is the word
A needle in the back
And my voice unheard
Big lie
So this is the news
Radio lost
And I've nothing to lose
Nu voice
Said this is insane
I'm trying to learn the rhythm
Of the rule change game
Nu voice
I'm a clock with no hands
Someone said forgive them
I don't know if I can
Tell me
What did I do?
You'd think I'd sold perversion
To the son of God (Who?)
Tell me
What did I say?
I don't believe that honesty
Pays
Listen up
Listen up good
New man's fame
Is new man's poison
Listen up
Listen up good
Innocence
Is new corruption
POISON
(MC5)
The partisans not the artisans
Are doing their dirty show
But i ripped my pants
Doing some dance
That i learned in France
And they think there ain't
nothin' to know
Used, abused
Locked up, beaten and fined
But i got free
Copped a plea
And i can see
That there ain't no freedom
bell gonna chime
This time
Truth and love
are my law and worship
Form and conscience
my manifestation and guide
Nature and peace are
my shelter and companion
Order is my attitude
Beauty and perfection
Are my attack
False faces
Fast company
A night of thrills
With no jealousy, no poison
Nobody's tool
Will be a public fool
To manipulate the masses
Who lie and cheat
And eat their meat
And think it's sweet
While the rest all clean their glasses
People tell me you didn't know better,
Give me sermons 'bout the things I do,
Come to love 'em, even wrote letters,
You know I even asked it of you, I said,
I've been doing Poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
I've been doing Poison,
it's better than marrying your wife
On the road, the pace is getting frantic,
Specially when your poisoned out your mind,
A flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic,
When you're poisoned, deaf, dumb and blind,
I take my poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
Been doing Poison,
I wish I'd Poisoned my wife
My Father, he used to be a Preacher,
Never taught me nothing but scorn,
If I ever catch him on the street, yeah,
I'll make him wish he'd never been born,
He was Poison,
Guess he poisoned my life
He was Poison,
I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!
Come taste a century of hatred
Free from the sanity of them
Is there something, that you see in all of them
Non-believer, a time will come, but when?
All you worship in life, destroyed by human hands,
Spare the trouble you feel, save a breath for your next
Spit on the laws that I made for you
Betray the treasures within hearts
Is there something in death that you think reflects your life?
Come taste the loss that I feel, challenge paradise
All you worship in life, destroyed by human hands,
Save the trouble you feel, a treasure with no price
Your love is infectious,
Your rotten to the core,
Every body knows what you got,
But they still come back for more,
Your everybodys favourite,
You give them all a good time,
Your loves a total disaster,
But when they sign the dotted line they're,
Poisoned
One night with you and you've got me,
Poisoned,
Making love with the devils daughter,
Poisoned,
One night with you and you've got me,
Poisoned,
That dirty little bitch has got me,
Poisoned.
Sitting close beside me,
Hand upon my zip,
Don't bother to take it down, honey,
It's about to rip,
She's mammy's little virgin,
Her daddy's all in pride,
But she welcomed me with opened legs,
Kept me satisfied.
Tell me that you love me,
Say you'll never leave,
The more I give the more you take,
The more that you receive,
I got you down beneath me,
Open wide (ha ha),
I'm gonna make you pay for all,
Like Chancre's
Canterbury tales
When three men find a pot of gold
and end up killing one another in the name of greed
Some people are poison
Under my skin like opium
And I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
Yeah there poison
Admissions of liabilities
I'm living in my own private cold war
In a room full of spies and I cannot find the door
Some people are poison
Under my skin like opium
And I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
Yeah there poison
The violent aspects of a tattered man
Let me respond to that if i can
Illuminated Manuscripts written by hand
Accusations have been made form the very beginning
Some people are poison
Under my skin like opium
And I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
I could waist away with politics,
or drown myself with wine.
Confine myself to solitude,
and inject poison into my mind.
Meanwhile outside, everything still grows,
Wild like fire and fury, while I wish alone.
You know that I could feel the poison in my mind.
You know that I could feel the venom deep inside.
I feel like I am in an endless night,
like i am falling through the restless sky.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
and haunt you nevermore.
I could find myself in paradise.
Walk on endless shores.
Cut my feet so drastically before I beg for more.
Meanwhile, in front of me, under every stone,
lies a thousand reasons with a thousand rhymes.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
and haunt you nevermore.
You can't erase them.
Every lie you've told.
For then they'd leave you,
so face them forever more.
She's got a look that knocking you down
Her husband is so angry kicks her in the teeth
He want to kill, he wants to poison
Poison - he's a maniac
Poison poison
Fuckin' little worms are creeping in her face
The man gets crazy and he must kick her down
(Repeat 2nd verse)
Smash the axe into her fuckin' ugly face
The blood is running out of her eyes
Now that you've been bought and sold
You don't have time to fix the mess you're in
And if I may be so bold
I bet you couldn't even do it again
Bridge
Lying like yesterday's paper outside the door
Chorus:
Now you need me to clean your shoes
Walk on water be in the mood
Everybody's talking but nobody knows
Where did the emperor get them new clothes
I always did look up to you
Tried to copy everything that you did
Until you broke my heart in two
You shot me up then you flipped your lid
Bridge
She'll slide you in, you taste the sin
She slowly gets inside your head
You feel her take control
And she'll steal your soul
She's the devil lying in your bed
She's the Lord of your things
And it's no surprise
You're playing with a loaded gun
She's a killer queen
And she'll lick you clean
Then she'll spit you out
When she's done
{Chorus}:
Devil woman, evil woman
She'll make you believe
LA woman, she's my woman
Brings out the devil in me
She got blood-red lips and head trips
Leave a poor boy beggin' for more
When you get that itch
Ain't love a bitch
Now you need her just a little more
She's a soul taker, a ball breaker
And boy she's gonna break you
She's gonna steal your heart
Steal your money
Laugh at you when she's through
{Chorus} [3x]
Well, the way she'll do you
Things you ain't never seen
When you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
Talking to those rich folks that you know
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
You know that I could never be alone
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flower by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Well when you're sitting back in your pink rose Cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Days
I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
And another girl can take my pain away
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flower by US mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flower by the US mail
Send me dead flowers at my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
I've got no worries
I've got no regrets
Who they think they're kidding
They ain't seen nothing yet
You point my finger try to tell me I'm wrong
That never stopped me from singin' my song
I got the last laugh at the things they do
Eliminate them at the turn of a screw
I never lived by nobody's rules
I won't be sinking on that ship of fools
Can't push me no matter how hard they try
Stand back, it's my turn to fly
Chorus:
Come hell, hell or high water
Nothing's gonna hold me down
Come hell, hell or high water
Ain't no body messin' me around
I see their wicked ways
And miles of endless lies
Their jaded lives
Couldn't erase my smile
But what's this shit that I just heard
Son of a bitch you're working on my nerves
I'll watch you choke on your last words
It's about time you got what you deserved
I never lived by nobody's rules
I won't be sinking on that ship of fools
Can't push me no matter how hard they try
Stand back, it's my turn to fly
Chorus
I've got something that's been on my mind
Come close I'll tell you the problem that I find
I'm sick and tired of the damage you've done
Don't blame me I ain't the one
Blame yourself for the ghosts in your past
There's an alley cat slowly walkin' down a dirty street
Watching a cop on the take marching to his city beat
You got five fingers Johnny stealing everything in sight
You gotta be bad to be good in the dead of the night
Wowowow, kick it
You're dancing in fire, baby
When you're takin' it to the streets
Yeah to the streets
Better watch your back baby
Fast on your feet
Cause they're wheelin' dealin'
Cheatin' stealin'
Child you're gonna learn
Chorus:
You gotta be bad to be good
If you know what I'm talkin' about
What's that
So I say it again
You gotta be bad to be good
In the dead of the night
When you got nothin' baby
You got nothin' to lose, nothin' to lose
It's an eye for an eye baby
And a tooth for a tooth, ain't it the truth
If you got nine lives you might survive
Cause nothing's free on the other side
Bad to be good
If you know what I'm talkin' about
What's that
So I say it again
You gotta be bad to be good
In the dead of the night
Wheelin' dealin' cheatin' stealin'
Just to stay alive
They got love for sale, yes for sale
On the New York subway line
Watch the working girls hanging out
Turning tricks underneath the lights,
Oh the lights
One step from hell
The poor men sell their soul
For a taste of wine
Chorus
When it's said and done
And you're on the run
Like this
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Ain't got a hope in hell
Of puttin' my pieces back together again
I've seen things in my life that should never be seen
I'm talkin' things that'd make your skin crawl
I just wanna go back to a simpler time
Where nothin' really mattered at all
You see, I can't sleep all night long
Tossin' and a-turnin'
Thoughts they keep a-churnin'
I can't sleep all night long
As a matter of fact
I just wanna get back
Chorus
Back to the rockin' horse
Back to where it all began
Take me back-back to the rockin' horse
And start all over again
My parents think I'm crazy
And the doctor says I cracked
But they don't understand me
Cause I just wanna get back
You see I can't sleep all night long
Tossin' and a-turnin
Thoughts they keep a-churnin'
I can't sleep all night long
As a matter of fact
I just wanna get back
Chorus
Dick meets jane and a fire starts
Jane leaves dick and it breaks his heart
Dick asked jane, "why'd you leave me? "
"cause you're not dangerous, rough or sleazy"
Now dick's dangerous
Now dick's rough
Now dick's sleazy
Nice guy dick don't live here anymore
Dick bought a swanky love pad down by the shore
Chorus
He's going prime time
Online
All the girls come around to get dick
They all adore him now 'cause he acts like a prick
Each one tries to tie dick down
Dick never falls in love, on the girls start coming 'round
Dick don't fall for their sweetness
He knows their weakness
Dick knows a secret
Secret is dick leased himself a nice car
Girls like car
Girls like dick
Dick scores
Chorus
Solo
Suddenly jane wants back in dick's life
'cause jane hears dick's a popular guy
Jane looks good, dick takes her home
Dick kicks hers out after he gets his bone
Now jane wants him
Now jane needs him
Now jane loves him
Jane loves dick now that she got the heave ho
Jane got what she wanted
Dick ain't a nice guy no more
Chorus
So you want to talk about the pain
Talk to me, please explain
Maybe I know what your going through
You got so much pain to hide
You keep it locked up deep inside
In a room no one gets to
I can't feel the way you feel
Maybe I, I've got those same scars, same scars to heal
Wish you've got to understand
I want to be the only man to
Ever touch you baby
To ever...
Chorus:
I'll be there should the sun go down
Lift you up to a higher ground
Let me in, let me be the one
I'll be there should you fall from grace
Wipe those tear drops from your face
I see no more damage done
Baby, baby,
Just let me be the one
I want to be the one to show to you???
Should the rains come down
Never let you drown
I'll pull you through
I want to hear you when you scream
Be your prince when you dream
Hold you close when you cry
I said...
I want to feel your love, your hate
Should you be lost, I'll bear your cross of pain
Love seal your fate
I'll comfort you in fits of rage
I'll be the book you can turn the page, and
I'll still love baby
I'll still...
Chorus
I gotta touch you I'll see no more damage done
You gotta let me
Solo
I hear the hurt I hear the scars
You can lay your hand right down across my heart
Then you'll learn to understand
I want to be the only man to
Ever touch you baby, ever touch you baby ever
Chorus
I'll be calm in fits of rage
Hold you close in times of pain
I see more damage done
Baby, baby, you got to let me be the one
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
(Let's go)
Saturday night rainbow bar and grill
Where there's cocaine lines and a little white pill
A beer and a gin, now I can't see straight
Slip it in, no glove, oops, too late
I remember her face but forgot her name
She forgot mine too ain't that a shame
Smelled like reefer and my hairs in a mess
I left my love running down her dress
Dave from Drowning Pool is here
Steals my women and he drinks my beer
Buys me a pizza and a shot of Jim beam
And ask, "Who the fuck is Angeline?"
I to to piss the parking lot
Well, I get in a fight but I don't get caught
Hell, no problem 'cuz the night's still young
I wan a little more gonna get ya some
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
(CC, let's go)
Rock stars movie stars a Hollywood scene
I eat dinner with Nick Cage and Charlie Sheen
Nick asks me, "What the hell unskinny bop means?"
It's slang for CC banging a porno queen
Mario, Michael, tony and steady
RV won't you get table six ready?
My platinum records hang all around

M-m-mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
Daddy come home
He never get no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
Well, the kid won't eat
And the dog won't sleep
No escape from the music
On the whole damn street
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out
And in and out and in and out
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes, "Squeeze me
Come on and squeeze me
Come on and tease me like you do
I'm so in love with you"
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out
And in and out and in and out
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's alright
Mama's got a squeeze box
Alone on my steel horse i ride
The engine echoes in the night
Through a congrete jungle a wasteland i call home
No fears and no regrets
No apologies for the things i've said
And believe me child it's the life i've known
Chorus
I will ride on through the night
From this hell i will survive
It's all i've done it's who i am
Just know this
I've done the best i can
I see fallen angels and broken dreams
I still surviving on these streets
Like forgotten soldiers left here to die
All your pain i understand
Give me your love you take my hand
And from this wasteland we will ride
Chorus (2)
We will ride on through the night
From this hell we will survive
Give me your faith give me your hand
hit the highway
Touch life barely sixteen
No angel of mercy
Coming down to save the soul of me
I took a greyhound limousine
Straight to grand central nyc
It was ass, gas, or grass, living fast
Nobody rides for free
Chorus:
Living it up, giving it up
Living in the valley of lost souls
Wanting it all, taking the fall
Living in the valley of lost souls
Miss misery come ride me
How I love her company
She did boston justice
And wronged all the right out of me
The devil wears a black suit
He says I'm livin' like a bum
So what I'm looking like I'm half dead
A gypsy on the run
Chorus
Feels like time's running out on me
But I wasn't born to play nobody's fool
Ain't nobody gonna hold me down to play nobody's fool
Ain't nobody gonna hold me down
I've gotta roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Solo
Well I'm sitting here this evening
I've got some old friends on my mind, yeah I do
Yeah, me and slick and davy saluting mr. daniels
For the very first time
We was jamming to old jimi, singing purple haze,
No doubt, no, no
I think between weed and whiskey
My head went north and man, my feet went south
We had some good times,
And man do I remember them well
Those days are long gone,
But now I got to tell you just how we left some stories to tell
Chorus:
Ride, child ride
Hell we had some good times then
Ride, child, ride
Sometimes I need those times again
Do you remember when?
Remember all our big talk,
How we were going to be president, one day, baby
How we were going to save the whole world
But man, I got to tell you lord,
Didn't have a clue back then
We had some good times,
And man do I remember them well
Those days are long gone,
But now I got to tell you just how we left some stories to tell
Chorus
Ride, child, ride
Hell, we had some good times then
Ride, child ride
Sometimes I need those times again
Ride, child ride
Hell, we had some good times then
Ride, child, ride
[Instrumental]
[Instrumental]
We all carry the cross and speak what we're taught
Lies and money become the white man's god
We've burned all our bridges one too many times
The time has come now to draw the line
Chorus:
You know you've got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
You know you've got to
Stand, stand, stand for what you believe
Ohh, You got to...Stand for what you believe
Alright, alright
You got to listen now...
Express yourself in the face of change
Repress yourself, you surely seal your fate
You got to look inside, the answer lies in wait
Resurrect before it's too late
Chorus
Somebody rescue me, come down and rescue me
I know the soul of a good man has got to be free
When you stand, stand for what you believe
Solo, repeat chorus
[Instrumental]
a small town girl with big time dreams
but nothing's ever as it seems
a mother waves her girl goodbye
then slowly hangs her head and cries
hollywood hills and the big city lights
outside her window they burn bright
someday the world will praise her fame
they'll know her face they'll shout her name
pre-chorus
they'll shout it real load
she'll make her mama real proud
she'll stand about the crowd
Chorus
i am someone
look what i've done
stare into the sun
i am a shooting star
i am something
i am someone
look what i have done
i am a shooting star
she looks down at the stars lying on the streets
says to herself "that will be me"
a big time dream a small town mind
searching for a break she may never find
streets of gold they turned to gray
just one more chance just one more day
someday that world will know this face
she swears they'll never fall from grace
they'll shout it real loud
she'll make her mama real proud
she'll stand about the crowd
and shout
chorus (solo)
she stand out on the streets in the pouring rain
strangers walk by they don't know her name
as the silver screen slowly fades to black
she'll never give in she can never go back
chorus
someday you'll see me
don't you need me
everybody will believe me
i am a shooting star
i will stand strong
i will hold on
it's not my last song
i am a shooting star
Now Listen
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
But right now I can't make ends meet
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Chorus:
Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
They say I spend my money on women and wine
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
I'm really sorry about the shape I'm in
I just like my fun every now and then
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Chorus
You see I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day
If wantin' the good life is such a crime
Lord, then put me away
Here's to ya
Solo
Chorus (3x's)
Lately boy, your head ain't right
And nothing seems to thrill you
Word on the streets is
No sex no more 'cause, it'll kill you
You touch, she bites,
You push, she shoves
Then she yells in your ear
No glove, no love
Oh, it'll ruin the mood
But you know she's right
When the big head stops and the little head talks
You better learn how to walk the walk
Chorus:
As far as I can see
It's really no big mystery
It's the same old story
No ring, no gets
It ain't the boat you float
It's the motion in the ocean and I quote:
Before you start pumping that fuel out your jet
No ring, no gets
(Got) This feeling coming over you
It's a very frustrating emotion
You keep thinking your smooth
Start making your move
But your lady starts causin' commotion
You'd like to round the bases
You know that's for sure
Cause Miss Palm and her five sisters just
Don't cut it no more
You know tonight you'd like to fly her kite
But the wind ain't blowing you got that right
Chorus
Solo
Woman hold the lock
A man's known that for years
You're burning up inside to insert that key
Could bring a man to tears
Your gun is loaded
You got her right in sight
About to pull your trigger
When the girl puts out the lights
But keep your cool don't make a scene
Cause her ?
?
Chorus (2x's)
Don't you want my (repeat)..
Spoken: Shut Up!
[Instrumental]
Did you ever get up on the wrong side of bed
With an achin' head and just fall apart?
You're running late, the boss is bitchin',
It's cold outside, and the car won't start
Well I don't mean to bitch I swear
Cause we all got our cross to bear
Chorus:
But when I hear the music
All my troubles just fade away
When I hear the music
Let it play, let it play
When I hear the music
Sure as darkness I can see the day
When I hear the music
Let it play
Let it play
Life's just rented space getting laid to waste
When the lines on my face say I'm growing older
Just a stitch in time gonna save my mind
When the weight of the world lies on my shoulders
Soon I won't have a place to fit
In a smoky room
Could have been a devil's tomb
90 miles east of LA
Feeling desperate and cold
Barely 19 years old
Searching for the light in the pouring rain
I visualize the cold reality
If I don't try, the answer dies inside of me
Chorus:
Blind faith takes me to the mountains
Blind faith lead me to the sea
Blind faith takes me to a higher ground
Come on, come on, come on, and help me find my way
In a small town school
Caught between the liars and fools
She spent her days thinking about her life
She was full of dreams and doubts
searching for that one way out
Didn't want to spend the rest of her days being a small town wife
She could visualize the life she wants to lead
But deep inside, she didn't have the heart it takes to leave
Chorus
I just got to get myself out of here
We visualize the life we want to lead
But deep inside got to find a reason to believe
Chorus out
good god what do i see
pretty little thing just
looking at me
ohhhh ohhhh sexy thing
i say walk that thing
right over here
just one thing i've got to make clear
ohhhh ohhhh sexy thing
pre-chorus
the way you move your body
it's driving me insane
don't you dare take me there
then shoot me down in flames
chorus
she's just like a loaded gun i just gotta get me some
girl's so hot you know is true
that woman gonna make a man of you
really ain't no mystery
i want you and you want me
ohhhh ohhhh sexy thing
i want your ten toes up and my ten toes down
two wet bodies going round and round
ohhhh ohhhh sexy thing
now it really ain't no secret i dont want this night to end
she said don't you worry Bret i brought along a friend
she's just like a loaded gun i just gotta get me some
girl's so hot you know is true
that woman gonna make a man of you
she make a dead man come
just got to get me some
(solo)
pre chorus
she's just like a loaded gun i just gotta get me some
girl's so hot you know is true
that woman gonna make a man of you
she's just like a loaded gun i just gotta get me some
she make a dead man come
i gotta get me some
Now that you've been bought and sold
you don't got time to fix the mess your in
and if I may be so bold
I bet you couldn't even do it again.
Lying like yesterday's paper
just outside your door
Chorus:
Now you need me to clean your shoes
walk on water be in the mood
everybody's talking but nobody knows
Where did the emporer get them new clothes
I always did look up to you
I tried to copy everything that you did
until you broke my heart in two
you shot me up and then you flipped your lid
Lying like yessterdays paper
just outside your door
Repeat Chorus
Rikki Rockett solo; no lyrics
Stand and rise and before your eyes
the lions will appear
And when they do they'll be filling you
with all the lies you will need to hear
Mr. Politician, just keep on dishin'
your shit for the TV screen
Turn off his camera, he'll drop the propaganda
faster than the poverty that he just seen
Got to bring it home
We got to bring it home
See his campaign run by the power funds
And makin' all the deals he can
Isn't it funny what greed and money
can do to the soul of a man
We don't seen nothin', hear nothin'
Just get their news stuffed down our throats at 10
Makes it hard to conceive who the fuck to believe
When I don't see no means to an end
Chorus:
We got to bring it home....
I don't know what to believe
We got to bring it home
Don't you think you're fooling me
We got to bring it home
In this world that's grown so cold
We got to bring it home
We will never know until we bring it home
Watch the walls around come tumbling down
Like a house that's built on a hill
How can we change a thing or even get in the ring
If we're living our lives in guilt
We don't see it comin' hear it comin'
Acting like we know nothing, chills me to the bone
Sure as hell stop foolin' ourselves
Till we bring it home
Chorus
Time has come now to bring it home
We got to get it home
Time has come now to bring it home
We got to get it home
The truth we will never find
Until we bring it home
Like this....I've never seen a woman baby
That looks quite the way you do
The way you shake that thing now honey,
Can't take my eyes off you
The way you work it honey
It brings me to my knees
You give me what I'm looking for,
I'll give you what you need
And I said
Chorus:
I got the one thing you want,
Get it all night long
You got the one thing I need,
When your body talks
I hear it talking to me
Say, get it all night long
Woman why can't you see
You're my one thing
I got a world of trouble, baby
It's going on inside my head
Playing your game, got me half insane
Trying to make sense of every word you said
Stop beating around the bush
You're just wasting time
Let's get down to the business honey
And lay it one the line
And I said
Chorus
Tell me the news,
Let's hear your story
You think you got nothing to lose
You better use it up
before it gets old, baby
And becomes yesterday's news
Chorus out
Come on, come on
Get on your dress and put on a smile
Lets lose this place
and get out awhile, awhile, awhile
You don't need nothin' fancy
Just a whole lot of attitude
I'll be your man now baby
If you're doing what I want you to do
I keep on tellin' ya
Chorus:
She's my ball and chain
My lock and key
And I'm liking it baby
She's my ball and chain
My lock and key
And I'm liking it good
I'll t-t-t-tell ya
Momma always said
There was plenty of fish in the sea
So I baited my hook but good
And caught one for me, just for me
She'll set you up with her body
And then knock you out with charm
She's just a little too nasty baby
But that never did me no harm, no
I keep on telling ya
Chorus
And she'll always be wrapped tight around me
I t-t-t-tell ya
What you heard about me
Was probably right
I'm the boy next door
The one you were warned about
Oh yes, indeed
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Chorus:
Number one bad boy
who's to blame
Number one bad boy
Ain't that a shame
Yeah, right
All my friends are two faced
And I'm a social disgrace
I got no morals
Don't belong in the rat race
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Into a lonely world
Where I'm lost without a trace
Two faced
rat race
disgrace
Will I stand up on my own?
Will I fall on my face?
First verse, pre-chorus, chorus out
My friend called just the other day
Packed it up he won't be back this way
It's not your heart but the spirit they break
There's only so much a small town boy can take
See the eyes of the countless masses
Drinking life from the empty glasses
Chorus:
No more victims
No more lies
Ne sheer heart attacks
No more empty promises
No more lookin' back
I came here loaded searching for the dream
But nothing is ever easy as it seems
I thought I got closer to it every day
But every day it just got so far away
See all the faces paled
Shot to hell when the system failed
Chorus
I thought I could take all the shit in grind
And stand much more pain
But see all those dead end wishes
Eats away at the brain
Solo, chorus
(To the music of Strange Days of Uncle Jack)
Southern California, are you ready?
From the gutters of Hollywood, California
Will you welcome
The glam

kings of noise....
POISON!!!!
CC DeVille solo, no lyrics
When I lost my way
You were my light
When the others wronged me
You did me right
When I look in your eyes
Don't tell me lies
You tell me the truth
Your words, they get me through
This is all I've got
This is all I'd say
If this were my last day
This is my last song
It's all I got
If I bare my soul
Don't you break my heart
Won't you sing along
This is my last song
It's all I got
So don't you break my heart
Wrote down these words
Put them in this song
I play it for you
Pray they don't come out wrong
Cause all I've gots my word
I give it to you
Now it may not be much
It's the best that I can do
This is all I've got
This is all I say
So please don't walk away
This is my last song
It's all I got
If I bare my soul
Don't you break my heart
Won't you sing along
This is my last song
It's all I got
So don't you break my heart
solo
If this were my last breath
Or my last day
My last chance
This is what I'd say
I thank you for the laughter
Sorry for the tears
Time to say goodbye
I say goodbye
After all these years
chorus
You shouldn't have broke my heart
I was heading down the highway
She's going my way
She climbed in, the next thing I knew
We started laughing and smoking,
We got to talking
Yeah, we'd both been hurt a time or two
I knew she didn't love me
But I didn't think she'd want me, no
Right there she took me
Underneath that sun, we became one
She said
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange
A lot like you....
(let's ride)
Halfway to boston
She turned down the radio
Asked what I was looking for
Then I looked in her eyes,
For the first time I realized
I really didn't know anymore
Sometimes I think I want true love
Most times I feel like there's no one
But in the meantime hold me tight
Things will be alright
I said...
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange
A lot like you....
(let's ride)
Solo
I pulled along the highway
The time had come to go our way
She took my hand, looked into my eyes
And said "won't you hold me one more time"
She said....
Life's a little strange
We all need a little strange sometimes
I'm a little strange a lot
In one ear and out the other
Told myself this girl is trouble, yeah
Everyone that looks at her
Is tragically struck in love
Bridge
Wait a minute...
This chick's got me addicted
I hate her so even though I wish she was my girl
Chorus:
I hate every bone in your body but mine
I can't wait till I can hate you tonight
Never thought I'd understand
But she's too good just for one man, yeah
Round and round and round she goes;
Who she's with don't wanna know
Bridge, chorus 2x's, solo
In one ear and out the other
Told myself this girl is trouble
Round and round and round she goes
And who she's with don't wanna know
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're my fatal attraction
Oh, no, I can't stop
You're my midnight fantasy
You're my cream of the crop
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home
You're my soaking wet ecstasy
Like sex on the beach
I wanna take you home now girl
Gonna practice what I preach, dig
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home now
I can taste your sweet emotion
I can feel it runnin' hot
Our veins of passion pumping so strong
We're like gas and fire
got a burnin' desire
Them sparks are gonna fly and we'll be
Chorus:
Shakin' shakin'
Tearin' down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin' down the walls
Screamin' scratchin'
Tearin' down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin' down the walls
I just wanna eat you up
Like a lion in a cage
Just get a little bit closer girl
And that's all I'll need to say
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home now
You're like a slave to the rhythm
I'm gonna put you to the test
You turn up the heat turn on the light
And I'll do the rest
I'm comin' home girl,
I'm comin home now
I can taste your sweet emotion
I can feel it runnin' hot
Our veins of passion pumping so strong
We're like gas and fire
got a burnin' desire
Them sparks are gonna fly and we'll be
Chorus, solo
She goes down slow like a shot of gin
She's got an angel's face and a devil's grin
She kinda stared me down as I looked her up
She said ";I'm your poison, now you drink a cup.";
In the heat of the night is when she comes alive
She's gonna push you push you til she's satisfied
I watch the ice melt fast on her red hot lips
She whispers ";If you wanna taste my love
why don't you swallow this.";
Chorus:
Love on the rocks
Love on the rocks
She's my shot
Love on the rocks
Ooooh lick it up
She gets so close you can feel her breathe
Just the way she moves, so soft and slippery
She lives just around the corner, right down the street
All night we play the horizontal bop right between her sheets
Chorus out
Good girls go to heaven
bad girls go to hell
The rest of them get rich
And do just what they feel
Well rich boys live in houses
And poor boys live in sin
The rest of them get married
And are never seen again
Well let me tell a story explain the shape I'm in
The girl I had last night had never tasted sin
So I took her to my hotel where I tried to get my way
She said ";Wait a minute, Bret, there's something I must say...";
She said If you wanna talk that's fine with me
But if you want more you'd better let me be
Chorus:
Cause you can look but you can't touch
Cause the best things in life ain't cheap
You can look but you can't touch
Cause baby I ain't for keeps
Well maybe I'm a bad boy
OK, so I've been around the block
But I am good at one thing
And believe me it ain't talk
She says you must be kidding
I've heard this all before
Other girls might buy it
But I don't, that's for sure
Now wait a minute baby
I don't want you to go
She said ";Don't get no closer
The answer still is no";
So I wined her, dined her, fancy talked
Acted cool and smooth
Got my hands around her shoulder
Two inches from the move
Well I guess I'm about as close as I could be
So I finally made my move, she just said to me
Chorus
Let me show you something
Mmm, let me set the pace
Slid my hand up her leg
As she slapped me across my face
Can't blame a man for tryin'
Wantin' action ain't a crime
I didn't plan on spending money
Just to get a piece of mind
Solo
Well, I calls my baby on the telephone
She says hurry home Bret cause I'm all alone
Oh now giddyap, hurry, and don't be late
Cause a b-b-b-b-baby I just can't wait
She starts talkin' dirty right in my ear
Making herself so perfectly clear
She needs some good love
So I roll her over in the middle of the night
and I rock my baby 'til the morning light
Gettin' hot....Good love, yeah.
Well the good people say I'm a sinnin' man
But if they knew my baby they would understand
The neighbors keep yellin' bout all the noise
They say the things you're doin' ain't natural, boy
Well my baby she just loves to play
And I need my baby each and every day
Need some good love
We're hoppin' and a bobbin' in the old moonlight
Rockin' and a rollin' til the morning light
Gettin hot....good love
Bring it home
Solo
Well my baby she just loves to play
And I need my baby each and every day
Need some good love
Well my daddy thinks that I've gone crazy
And my poor boss swears I'm losin' my cool
But I just want to play with my baby
If you only knew what she could do
She starts talkin' dirty right in my ear
Makin' herself so perfectly clear
need some good love
Baby she just loves to play
and I need my baby each and every day
Start hoppin' bobbin' in the old moonlight
Rockin' and a rollin' til the morning light
Gettin' hot, hot, hot
good love
so damn hot
Lately I can tell that something ain't right
I don't see the fire when I look in your eyes
One time up, and the next time down
This may be the last time that you see me around, said
Well it sure seems to me nothing matters tonight
And all those things we worked out, they got lost in the fight
It's not enough, girl, that I gave you my soul
I just want to know if we've got anything left at all, and I say
Chorus:
Hold on now, baby.
This could be the last time we stand
This could be the last time that we say good-bye
The picture shatters
I can't find the words to save it
Tell me what to do, how can I make it right
We will always be fire and ice
Well promises made in the heat of the night
You could sure spit them out, girl, but they've long passed me by
Nobody knows about the show you put me through
This could be the last time that I get through to you
Chorus
Well I can't stand to see no more damage done
But you'll never understand until you suffer some, and I said....
Chorus
Well it's four o'clock in the morning
and I'm knocking on your door
She says she's tired of me
Don't want me here no more
She said stop your pissin' and moanin' and groanin'
go sleep outside with them dogs
Now honey let me please explain
cause I didn't mean you no wrong
I didn't mean to hurt you baby
Wouldn't do that to you
She said bite your lip, now, sweet child
You're the bastard son of a thousand blues
Well my Daddy was gone by the day I was born
And my Mama I have never seen
I was born in the back of a black Cadillac
And raised by a Gypsy queen
And as a child I was hell gone wild
Raised in the eye of a storm
By the time I was ten I was doing time again
Cause I knew what that gun was for
Chorus:
No, no, no, I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues
No, no, no, Don't know what I'm going to do
No, no, no, I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues
No, no, no, Tell me, mama, what I'm going to do
Ladies have come and ladies have gone
But there's one I remember quite well
Years have gone past, but her memory lasts
But the story I cannot tell
Well I've lived and I've lied
And I've loved and I've tried
To put my soul to good use
Guess I'm shit out of luck
Cause that name, it just stuck
I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues, dig
Chorus, out
Now pardon my personal demons, child but if you do insist
Sit down and listen to me story awhile, cause it goes something like this
The joint was small but we were having a ball
At a place called the Blue Duck Inn
When I couldn't help but notice her
My future wife walked in
I needed me a dose of her, so I got a little closer
And this is what she said
My old man stands about six foot five
And if he catches you, you're dead
Now I don't need none of that
giving me the blues
The old man sitting next to me said
Son, let me tell you
Chorus:
Life, you just can't fake it
Love, you gotta make it
Time, you better take it
Lord, ain't that the truth
Hear me out
Your heart will surely feel it
Women come and steal it
Time can only heal it
Lord, ain't that the truth
I save Friday night for the ladies
Saturday night for my gin
Come Sunday morning, I'm asking the good Lord
To forgive me for my sins
Lately my heave-ho get-up-and-go
Wouldn't get me out of bed
I felt like some big wrecking ball
Done hit upside my head
Now I don't need a preacher man
Telling me how to run my life
Until an angel sitting next to me
said son, heed my advice. She said
Repeat chorus
You better get your story straight
What comes around goes around
Chorus
All my friends have someone
I want someone to
Someone to hold the whole night through
I need a lover
some on like you
Someone to make my dreams come true
Maybe if I close my eyes
everything will be alright
cause I don't want to be alone
No more, baby
Chorus:
I want some
I need some
anybody, somebody
Someone custom built for me
I want some
I need some
Whole lotta lover satisfaction guaranteed
I wake in the morning
and wrap my arms around no one
but tht no one
could be someone meant for me
So I jump out of my bed
and throw my hands on my head
and scream I need a lover just for me
Maybe if I close me eyes
everything will be alright
causee I dont want to be alone
No more, baby
Chorus:
lead
She's got pizazz
like a razamaaz
I'd like to slide it in
but where do I begin
Wastes all my money
spends all my money
I ain't got no luck
can't change her mind
Chorus:
Blame it on you
I can't stand up
Blame it on you
I'm keeping my mouth shut
Blame it on you
I can't see straight
Blame it on you
Uh-ohhh, too late
I want a little reaction
how 'bout a kiss ot two?
She said "jump back honey,"
I said "no can do"
Why do you always make a fool out of me?
I can't get no nookie
justa plain to see
Pre-chorus:
Wastes all my money
spends all my time
I ain't got no luck
can't change her mind
Chorus 2:
Blame it on you
I can't get no sleep
Blame it on you
I'm in six feet deep
Blame it on you
well, I guess it's true
Blame it on you
Yes, I do
I blame this whole damn mess, honey
right on you
Pre-chorus:
Now listen little girl, let me explain
Why you got me in such a terrible way
First verse:
Pre-chorus:
I'd like to put to rest the rumours
I'd like to put to rest the lies
I'd like to throw away the past
And show you how I feel inside
I'll be your taxi and your driver
I'll be your road if you need
I'd like to push and push and push
Just to make you pleased
But your river of emotion for me
flows like a dried up stream
Chorus:
So tell me why
Your satisfaction's like a heart of stone
So tell me why
Your love reaction chills me to the bone
You make my blood boil hot
And my heart beat like a drum
I'd like to do to you girl
Things that ain't never been done
From the rain I'll be your shelter
From the cold I'll be your heat
I'll push and push and push
just to make you pleased
Chorus
So tell me your reason
for tearing me up inside
Girl you gotta tell me why
Solo
But your river of emotion for me
flows like a dried up stream
Chorus
She stepped off the bus
out into the city streets
Just a small town girl
with her whole life
packed in a suitcase by her feet
But somehow the lights didn't
shine as bright as they did
on her mama's TV screen
And the work seemed harder
And the days seemed longer
than she ever thought they'd be
But you know you got
to stick to your guns
when it all comes down
'Cause sometimes you can't choose
It's like heads they win
tails you're gonna lose
(chorus)
Win big, Mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
Wants it all, Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin'
the dice of her life
Now she found herself in the
fast lane livin' day to day
Turned her back on her
best friends, yeah
And let her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
caught up in the Hollywood scene
all the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress
hiding all her pain
Trading her memories
for fortune and fame
Just a step away from
the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven and hell
Where's the girl I knew a year ago?
(chorus)
Too much too soon?
Or just a little too late?
Cause when her ship came in
she wasn't there and
It just wouldn't wait
(instrumental)
Remember the nights we sat
And talked about all our dreams
Well, little did we know then
They were distant than they seemed
Well I, oh I knew it, hey you knew it too
The things we'd go through
Well, we knew the things, we had to do
To make it, baby
You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true
Life ain't no easy ride
At least that's what I am told
Sometimes the rainbow, baby
Is better than the pot of gold
Well I, you've got to stick it out
Whether you're wrong or right
And you can't give in without a fight
To make it, baby
You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true
Well, you gotta aim high, baby
Whether you lose or win
And when you get to the top
You gotta get off or go right back down again
You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true
Well, you gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true
You gotta cry tough
Out on the streets
To make your dreams happen
You gotta cry out
Out to the world
To make them all come true
Like animals
Tonight we make it
You give me an inch,
I'm gonna take it
I'll steal your love
Like a thief
To be as one
Is my belief
Don't look back and have no regrets
Like beasts of prey we must feed on it
I'll be your one, your one and only
To feel me burn come close and hold me
CHORUS
Flesh and Blood sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you willing to sacrifice
There's no more time,
Don't think about
The flame will die
If you doubt
It's a game of
Love and hate
To lose it all's
A chance we take
Come to me and take my hand
It's in the fire that we must stand
I'll take you down under my gun
Our flesh and blood will be as one
CHORUS
Our blood runs deeper than a river
The less you need the more I'm gonna give you
I'm uneducated
My clothes outdated
I'm not politically correct
I still hate small talk
And fast cars and hard rock
Still adds up my?
I should be expressing
All my inner repression
I guess depression's now a cultural thing
My record company says
Blow my brains out my head
I make the cover of every magazine
Chorus:
Step inside my nightmare
Welcome to my trip
I cannot pretend and I will not defend
Why this good old boy's so tragically unhip
I still like bad girls
Who rock me hard in my world
Its monkey see and monkey do
When I'm ?
I got an old waterbed
I like to trip into the dead
I've keep a poster of kiss on my wall
I still curse, smoke, drink and toke
And make love in the back of my car
Chorus
Solo
I like that home grown
Mind blowing
You're bringing
R rolling
They see strange stalking
Mind stopping
Ass swinging
Street walking
Drop the bass!
(Do you like that?)
Shipped out on of knees
Her old man thinks you're a social disease
Dog pissed on the floor left a stain
Your old lady's daddy driving you insane
She stopped taking the pill
Then left you sued you for a mil
You've got your problems, boy so damn great
Can't find a good wife can't find a good job
Can't find the keys to my car
I lost my dog I lost my brain
I lost my girl to a big movie star (whatever)
Now I'm standing at the crossroads trying to find my way home
But the truth is baby I'm so
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Sometimes I'd just
Chorus:
Like to jump in and get me some funky
When push comes to shove
You talk too much and way too rough
How 'bout we both shut up and let's make love
I'm home hangin', the walls bangin'
It's the neighbor next door
They're talking trashy or doing the nasty
They keep me up until four
So they keep on going more and more
I hear and said ";Lord, I'm half crazy";
I gotta get me some of that
In and out, and in and out,and in and out
Chorus
When the clothes start flying
There's no denying
Gonna get some funky
Good, good funky
Your blood starts pumpin'
Baby start somethin'
Here oh right here, right here baby
Oh give me a little bit of loving
Solo
It's all so simple
I'll bring the ripple
What's your state of mind?
How 'bout we drink, get drunk
Chorus
Alt Chorus
?????
?????
When push comes to shove
Skip your lip and all the politics
How 'bout we both shut up and let's make love
It would sound like this....
Stop!
Well she stepped into the room
Right then she got my eyes
She had an ass like a truck
And two amazing thumping thighs
She's been like no other
Just one big fat mother freak
So ? ? ? ?
She likes whips and chains and things
She don't need no diamond rings
Couldn't get her through the door
So I did her on the floor
Lets get naked baby
And roll under the sheets
I ask one favor baby
Don't roll on top of me
She's my crisco queen
A non-stop love machine
On the scene like a sex machine
She ain't big going get bigger
Sparks may fly like the fourth of july
Just don't get any in your eye
She's got me on a 2x4
So I don't fall in when she wants more
I got excited she through
Her hands right over me
One the size of a truck
The other the size of a tree
She whispered in my ear
Just one could you push it near
Guess I had to move when you get down to it
She likes whips and chains and things
She don't need no diamond rings
Couldn't get her through the door
So I did her on the floor
Sparks may fly like the fourth of july
Just don't get any in your eye
She's got me on a 2x4
When I was a child staring at the tube
I saw sex, violence and death on the news
One day I saw the Duke kill someone
Daddy said don't worry boy, they're just acting son
All I want is attention from somebody
Somebody pay attention to me
Like them actors I got no shame
I want my fifteen minutes of fame
Doin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TV
Can I get on the news if I kill my wife?
Would you respect me more if I took my life?
I tried to act and my career just flopped
So I beat up my neighbors and I got on ";Cops";
All I want's a millions bucks from somebody
Somebody pay a million bucks to me
I could shoot and rape and kill
And buy me a house in Beverly Hills, please?
Doin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TV
I'd even do a porno flick, like all them Hollywood chicks
I'm doin' it as I see on my TV
Took my girl to rent a porno movie
I thought that it'd be kinda groovy
I thought that'd this impress my lover
And there she was right on the cover!
All I want is attention from somebody
Somebody pay attention to me
I'm a man I got no shame
I want my fifteen minutes of fame
Doin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TV
Hell I'd even do a porno flick, like my hero Rocky did
Doin' as I see on my TV
Whistling, gargling
Spoken: I am not aware!
I can't say I ain't been around
That I ain't done my time
Seems like this big old world
Has been one big shoe to shine
But I never ever took a dime
For what comes naturally
And if I never knew the truth
Well she'd be fine with me
One night she stayed over here
And left her little black book behind
Well that little black book ain't little no more
And it wasn't too hard too find
Chorus:
She'd leave me in this lonely room
The thought just made me sick
It's funny how the pieces fit
My baby gets around a bit
Yeah, my baby gets around a bit
Her pager would ring, it's a funny thing
She'd have to go right away
She always had a wad of cash
Much more than her job could pay
I'd ask her where she's going to
And this is what she'd say
";I gotta meet someone for an interview
He's only in town today";
Always a little bit overdressed
Much more than I thought he'd be
High heel shoes and day glow dress
Ain't seem strange to me
She'd leave me in this lonely room
While some stud got his sex
Just then the thought occurred to me
My baby gets around a bit
My baby gets around a bit
Oooh, my baby gets around a bit...
Solo
Took her to the local bar
Where I like to hang
Every guy that passed her by
They all seemed to know her name
They all called her by a different name
And one of them winked at me
Some guy named Stan said ";you're the man
I heard you get it for free";
She'd leave me in this lonely room
And the thought hit me like a brick
It's funny how the pieces fit
My baby gets around a bit
Ooooh, my baby gets around a bit
Ooooh, my baby gets around a bit
My baby gets around a bit
My baby gets around....
My baby..
Listen up, child, there's one thing I've got to make clear
Yeah, I do
You don't see it coming
Hear it coming
Acting like you know nothing
About that strange rumor going on around here
Take me back to the land of the living
Take me down where the sun do shine
Take me back, things be different
You get it, got it, ooooh, you better get it now
Chorus:
Stay alive, let your soul rise up from the bottom
Stay alive, don't let it take you down for the very last time
Stay alive, it don't do you no good looking up from the bottom
Stay alive, don't let it take you down for the very last time
You talk about lies and pain
It don't do you no good with your face in the cocaine
Love, hate, watch that mother
She'll bring you down like no other I've seen
If you know what I mean
Take me back, got to face that demon
Take me down, don't play it's fool
Take me back, things be different
You get it, got it, ooooh, you better get it now
Chorus
No, I ain't seen nothin'
No, I ain't seen nothin'
CHOURS
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
But when evening comes around and it's time to hit the town
Where do you go--You gotta rock it
The old folks say that
You gotta end your date by ten
But if you're out on a date
Don't you bring her home late cause it's a sin
You know there's no excuse,
You know you're gonna lose, you never win
I'll say it again
And it's all because
CHORUS
Everyone gather round let me tell you all about it
You see I pulled into a drive-in and I found a place to park
We hopped into the backseat where it's always nice and dark
We're just about to move thinking "Bret, this is a breeze"
There's a light in my eye and a guy says
"Out of the car, long hair!"
Oowee--you're coming with me
Said the local police
CHORUS
Play me a little C.C.
Your Mama don't dance, no
She just don't dance, no
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
You're such a sexy thing and it's all right
But your daddy loves you and that's all right
He buys you diamond rings, but I'm giving you better things
That's all right, all right
Chorus
No doubt about it you're the queen of the fine
You can crawl up in me any ol' time
Slide up slow like a rattlesnake
Suck me in with every move you make
Heartbreaker
You talk so soft and sexy call me honey
Your eyes make love to me, take my money
Your body can hypnotize you let me fantasize
I can't hide it, I can't hide it
Chorus
No doubt about it you're the queen of the fine
You can crawl up in me any ol' time
Slide up slow like a rattlesnake
Suck me in with every move you make
Heartbreaker
The more I get the more I need
You have no idea what you're doing to me
I breakdown, I breakdown
The only way to forget about my ex
Is the wonderful sound of your sex yeah
You're so sexy, I want to touch you
But it's closing time, what could I do
You drive up in your corvette
I try to get you into my corvette
No dice
But I still love you
Chorus
No doubt about it you're the queen of the fine
I'd like to see you here tomorrow night
Slide up slow like a rattlesnake
Suck me in with every move you make
Heartbreaker
The more I want, the more I need
No idea what you're doing to me
Heartbreaker
Yeah i, I like it
Came to Hollywood
Gonna be a movie star
She got off the bus
She didn't get far
Now she can act as good as Meryl Streep
Dreams of stardom when she sleeps
The casting couch makes her scream
Wasn't like this in her dreams
Chorus
Wishful thinking
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me good
Wishful thinking
Let's go
Came to hollywood
Gonna be a big rock star
He can play a million riffs on this here guitar
Now he works two jobs can't get a break
Takes little white pills to stay awake
No record deals just make him scream
It wasn't like this in his dream
Clorus
(come on Bobby)
(Yeah I like that)
Hollywood
Superstars
Rock n' roll Denny's
Topless bars
Do a porno movie make some extra cash
But you spend it all to fast
Hollywood just makes you scream
It wasn't like this in your dreams
Chorus
Dream. wishful thinking
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me good
Wishful thinking yeah yeah
There's a rose on the bed
A letter that I wrote what you mean to me
Words I wished I'd said,
Were still in my head, now I pray you'd see
I don't know how to tell you that I miss you, baby
I struggle with the words sometimes
But in my heart, I know you'll find
Chorus:
I know, you know
Our souls will be together till the end of time
You know, I know
Your love is gonna meet me on the other side
As sure as the angels come down and take my breath away
I love you'd be the last thing I'd ever say
I'd ever say....
You walked beside me,
You stood by me and got me through my darkest times
And now I close my eyes
And visuallize your face for the last time
I didn't know how to tell you that I loved you baby
I struggle with the words sometimes
But in my heart, I know you'll find
Chorus:
I know, you know
Our souls will be together till the end of time
You know, I know
Your love is gonna meet me on the other side
As sure as the angels come down and take my breath away
I love you'd be the last thing I'd ever say
I never fell in love,
No one ever touched me like this before
You opened my eyes
Made me realize something worth living for
Solo (guitar and piano)
But if fate took you from me before I got to let you know
You're the one thing in my life worth dying for
If the world fell apart,
I know in my heart
I know would never change
If the devil himself
Tried to raise hell's bells
I know it would be in vain
If the heavens come down
Let 'em fall to the ground
Let 'em take my breath away
Like animals
Tonight we make it
You give me an inch,
I'm gonna take it
I'll steal your love
Like a thief
To be as one
Is my belief
Don't look back and have no regrets
Like beasts of prey we must feed on it
I'll be your one, your one and only
To feel me burn come close and hold me
Chorus:
Flesh and blood sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you willing to sacrifice
There's no more time,
Don't think about
The flame will die
If you doubt
It's a game of
Love and hate
To lose it all's
A chance we take
Come to me and take my hand
It's in the fire that we must stand
I'll take you down under my gun
Our flesh and blood will be as one
Chorus
Our blood runs deeper than a river
The less you need the more I'm gonna give you
My daddy said
"son, don't you come to me cryin'
Cause money don't make you a happy man"
He said the grass is always greener
Any place except where you stand
He said some are born to win
And some born to lose
And sing them poor boy blues
Watch out
I've lived uptown, downtown
Lord I've lived everywhere
Almost drowned in the puddle of my own sweat I swear
I believe it's due time I get my mansion in ole bel air
Chorus:
But I'm still singin' those poor boy blues
Poor boy blues
You don't know how I'm feeling baby
Until you're wearing my shoes
Sure as I'm standing here
I got them poor boy blues
Friday night I get tanked up
And tossed in the local slam
At least I get three square meals
Until someone gets me out of this jam
In the meanwhile all my green
Is going to uncle sam
Chorus:
What you heard about me
Was probably right
I'm the boy next door
The one you were warned about
Oh yes, indeed
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Chorus:
Number one bad boy
who's to blame
Number one bad boy
Ain't that a shame
Yeah, right
All my friends are two faced
And I'm a social disgrace
I got no morals
Don't belong in the rat race
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Into a lonely world
Where I'm lost without a trace
Two faced
rat race
disgrace
Will I stand up on my own?
Of all the words I've spoken
And lies that I've told
Of all the hearts left broken
Begged for, bought, and sold
Lord I'm feeling lonely
Feel like I can't go on
The streets have all grown cold now
The mysteries all gone
She's all gone
She's all gone, gone, gone
All gone now
She's all...
Well I ain't getting any younger
Can't you see it in my eyes
Sweet has turned to sour
I think it's time for me to fly
Well my vices have turned to habits
And my habits have turned to stone
The lies chipped away at my smile now baby
While the truth ate me down to the bone
One more step I swear
And I'll go over the edge
I've gotta stop living at a pace that kills
Before I wake up dead
Chorus:
Good times, bad times
How life loves a tragedy
Heartbreaks, heartaches
How life loves a tragedy
The nights I spent in danger
With strangers I thought were friends
Only to wake in anger
For some pleasure they swore they'd send
I think it's time I move on
Like a rolling stone
Cause I got all the broken dreams I can buy
It's time to sell the ones I stole
Chorus
Well I paid the price
For every thrill I got
Those thrills are all long gone now baby
But I'm still paying for them like it or not
Solo
I think it's time I move on like a rolling stone
Cause I got all the broken dreams I can buy
I want action tonight
satisfaction all night
I grab my hat
and I grab my shoes
Tonight I'm gonna hit the streets
and cruise
Down the main street and check it out
and look at those school girls a hangin'
around
Now I'm a sucker for a pretty face
I dont care if she's in leather or lace
cause I'm just lookin' for a little kiss
Chorus:
I want action tonight, satisfaction all night
You got the love I need tonight
Long legs and short skirts
these girls hit me where it hurts
I can't wait to get my hands on them
I won't give up till they give i
Now I'm not lookin for a love that lasta
I need a shot and I need it fast
If I can't have her, I'll take her and make her
Chorus:
Hey, sweetheart, slide on in here
No, Im not in the front, jump in the back
Why?
Cause there's something back here I wanna
show ya
I want action tonight,
satisfaction all night
Oh, come on, honey, I wasn't that bad!
Oh well
Well it's boy meets girl and it starts a fire
Two hearts burn in pure desire
A candle burns the midnight oil
Lust to love and raise the spoil
Chorus:
When the girl goes down
That's the way I like it, like it, like it, like it
When the wheel goes 'round
Neither one can fight it
Can't fight the lust
Can't find the truth
Ain't nothing you can do
When the girl goes down
Hollywood and Vine on the hundredth floor
All the lies in bed, couldn't take it no more
Now standing on the ledge and faces truth
As she ate 'em up spit 'em out, his time is through
Chorus:
When the girl goes down
That's the way I like it, like it, like it, like it
When the wheel goes 'round
Neither one can fight it
Misery loves company
Nothing you can do
When the girl goes down
Solo
I woke up this morning in the paper read
The Hollywood Police found a young man dead
No name, no face, or known I'd
Just no different than you and me
Now someone arrives in her strange world
And the story goes it's boy meets girl
Chorus:
When the girl goes down
That's the way I like it, like it, like it, like it
When the wheel goes 'round
Neither one can fight it
Chorus:
When the girl goes down
That's the way I like it, like it, like it, like it
When the wheel goes 'round
Neither one can fight it
Can't fight the lust
Can't find the truth
You know I never
I never seen you look so good
You never act the way you should
But I like it
Then I know you like it too
The way that I want you
I gotta have you
Oh yes, I do
I know I never
I never ever stay out late
You know that I can hardly wait
Just to see you
And I know you cannot wait
Wait to see me too
I gotta touch you
'Cause baby we'll be
At the drive-in
In the old man's Ford
Behind the bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me
You know I call you
I call you on the telephone
Tell that little thing she's home
So I can hear her
When she says those words to me
And whisper so softly
I gotta hear her
'Cause baby we'll be
At the drive-in
In the old man's Ford
Behind the bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me
'Cause baby we'll be
At the drive-in
In the old man's Ford
Behind the bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more
More, more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me
And baby
(Hey man)
Oh, leave me alone, you know
(Hey man)
Oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
(Hey man)
I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick
Just put my spine out of place
(Hey man)
My schooldays, insane
(Hey man)
My work?s down the drain
(Hey man)
She?s a total blam-blam
She said, she said she had to squeeze it
But then she, and then she
Don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you can?t afford the ticket
I?m back from Suffragette City
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you ain?t got time to check it
You know, my Suffragette City
Is outta sight, she?s alright
(Hey man)
Oh henry, don?t be unkind, go away
(Hey man)
I can?t take you this time, no way
(Hey man)
Droogie, don?t crash here
There?s only room for one
And here she comes and here she comes
Don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you can?t afford the ticket
I?m back from Suffragette City
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you ain?t got time to check it
You know, my Suffragette City
Is outta sight, she?s alright
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you can?t afford the ticket
I?m back from Suffragette City
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you ain?t got time to check it
You know, my Suffragette City
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you can?t afford the ticket
I?m back from Suffragette City
Oh, don?t lean on me, man
'Cause you ain?t got time to check it
You know, my Suffragette City
Is outta sight, she?s alright
Suffragette City, Suffragette City, Suffragette City
Oh, wham, bam, thank you, ma'am
Suffragette City, Suffragette City, Suffragette City
My baby said she don't wanna see my face,
And she kicked me right outta her place,
Now i'm back with the band and my girl's long gone,
She broke my heart bad so I wrote down this song.
I'm bout as sad as they come
Yeah i'm stupid stoned and dumb.
i'm a pretty pitiful sight,
lately i can't get myself right
But i can't get this girl out of my head
i just know she's got another man in her bed
they said Bret, let us give you some advice
In hollywood love don't come easy it comes at a price
Chorus
So your girlfriend is a dancer she makes love for money
used to get it free we really think your lucky
love's a two way street you got hit by the bus
don't break your heart boy or you'll end up like us
So you got dumped don't be ashamed
we got a little somethin' somethin' gonna ease your pain
so i toke and i snort and i smoke and i sniff
by the way, what day is this?
You're a natural born loser don't you understand
that's why your born to sing in a rock and roll band
born to feel the pain and write sad songs
with losers like us this is where you belong
Chorus
Solo
The band was makin' it big i was makin' a scene
drivin' big cars and makin' some green
gonna make a hit, a number one song
but by then my girl was long gone
Chorus
You're a natural born loser don't you understand that's why you're born to sing in a rock and roll band
born to feel the pain and write sad songs
Living off the friends we made
Never ever getting paid
Kicking ass and paying dues
Lose our mind in self abuse
Loving ladies by the score
Waking up and wanting more
I hope my mama understands
When I strike up the band
Well I spit out my anger as the sweat do fly
Fifteen years of paying dues just to get me by
Now the barkeeps would pay us by the crowds we bring
But those son-of-bitches never paid us one damn thing
And my poor daddy, he just don't understand
It's balls out tonight, watch the shit hit the fan
When we strike up the band
Now those drop dead ladies line the very first row
I do believe I'd like to spend some time after the show
Now them years gone by, the barkeeps pay in cash
And them lovely ladies feed me an earful of trash
And my old lady, she just don't understand
Why those floozies got their hands on her man
And my poor daddy, he still don't understand
Why it's balls out tonight watch the shit hit the fan
Give it all that we can, we don't give a good damn
When we strike up the band
Living like a gypsy,
An air conditioned hippie
Who's never seen the light of day
Rode dog and cowboy
Don't know how, boy
I ever lived this long this way, no, no, said
And my poor daddy, he still don't understand
Why it's balls out tonight watch the shit hit the fan
Give it all that we can, we don't give a good damn
Don't matter what my name is
Don't matter what my skin is
Don't matter if I'm black or white
Don't matter if I'm wrong or...right
Chorus
I guess I'm born to lose, ummmm
'cause execution did draw near
I got them steel bar blues
Am I innocent or guilty, man
Dare I say yes, I guess I am
I don't feel no pain no more
Ain't no sunshine, that's for sure
Chorus
I guess I'm born to lose
'cause execution did draw near
I got them steel bar blues
Yes I do.......
Don't matter what my name is
Don't matter what my skin is
Don't matter if I'm black or white
Don't matter if I'm wrong or...right
Don't matter what time it is
Don't matter if I'm black or white
Vietnam was '66
Two best friends take a bad hit
And never saw it come
But it's all there
One was a rich boy, a doctors son
The other the father of a girl age one
Never had the change to hold his daughters hand
New york flat in '76
Two girlfriends shoot a bad fix
Never woke up saw heaven before it saw them
One was a daughter of a prominent man
The other the mother of a girl age ten
Who walked in and saw mama sleeping in gods hands
And she cried
Chorus
Stay with me
Mama won't you stay here with me
You promised you would never leave
Stay with me
Oh won't you stay here with me
Mama, hold my had and stay with me
Years go by, the girl's 23
Had a rough go, but she's on her feet
The man so rough
A few good years, a wedding ring
Wasn't enough to fulfill his dreams
He came home from work one day and said I'm leaving you
She cried...
Chorus
Stay with me, honey
Won't you stay right here with me
You promised you would never leave
Stay with me, whoa whoa
Stay right here with me
Won't you hold my hand stay with me
Emergency room, number four
A woman cried out as the child is born
She stares into eyes and says
My life's had it's ups and downs
But for yours I will be around
I will always be around
And she cried
Chorus
Stay with me, whoa whoa
Won't you stay right here with me
I promise I will never leave
Stay with me, oh
Won't you stay right here with me
Child, you hold my had stay with me
Yo, bret--
Yes?
Give it to her!
I like to make you scream
Be the one to wet your dream --? ? ? /
I talk dirty in your...
I tell you things that you would like to hear
You're such a sexy young thing
I'm never gonna scare you
Love you so much I hate you
Chorus
I let you in my head
I like you in my bed
I like it soaking wet--
I like the sound of sex
My baby's got a nasty side
One that she just can't hide
But now you want it all the time
If I do yours, you best do mine
You're such a sexy thing
I've got you on the brain
Your sounds drive me insane
I like it when you scream
I listen when you dream
I like it soaking wet--
I like the sound of sex
Harmonica solo
I let you in my head
I love you in my bed
I taste you when you scream
I listen when you dream
I'll make you soaking wet--
Well I see him on the TV
preachin' bout the promise land
He tells me to believe in Jesus
and steals the money from my hand
Some say he was a good man
but Lord I think he sinned, yeah
22 years of mental tears
cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
Who fought a losing war
on a foreign shore
to find his country
didn't want him back
Their bullets took his
best friend in Saigon
Our lawyers took his wife
his kids, no regrets
In a time I don't remember
In a war he can't forget
He cries "Forgive me for
what I've done there
Cause I never meant
the things I did"
(chorus)
And give me something to believe in
if there's a Lord above
And give me something to believe in
Oh, Lord arise
Our best friend died a lonely man
In some Palm Springs hotel room
I got the call last Christmas Eve
And they told me the news
I tried all night not
to break down and cry
as the tears rolled down my face
I felt so cold and empty
like a lost soul out of place
And the mirror, mirror on the wall
sees my smile it fades again
(chorus)
Sometimes I wish to God
I didn't know now
The things I didn't know then
Road you gotta take me home
(instrumental)
I drive by the homeless
sleepin' on a cold dark street
like bodies in and open grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
that used to read "Jesus Saves"
A mile away live the rich folk
and I see how they're living it up
While the poor they eat
from hand to mouth
The rich is drinkin'
from a golden cup
And it just makes me wonder
why so many lose
and so few win, hey
(chorus)
(Sung simultaneously with chorus)
You take the high road
and I'll take the low road
You take the high road
and I'll take the low road
Sometime I wish to God
I didn't know now
the things I didn't know then
And give me something to believe in
(Laughing)
Jam Blues Man
There you lay
All by yourself
So please allow me
to introduce myself
I welcome you
To the house of sin
Open your mind
And let the games begin
I'm your lust
and I'm your greed
I'm every sick thought
that you ever done dreamed
Eaten your cake
Now you want some more
Mmm, where have I
heard that before?
Chorus:
I am your
I am your
I'm just your sexual thing
I am your
I am your
I'm just your sexual
Ain't nothin' but a sexual
It's just a sexual thing
Lyin' there
You look so horny
Talk is cheap
And startin' to bore me
Hold me close
And tell me it feels so good
But damn, girl
You knew it would
Chorus
Solo
Glad to have met you
So pleased that you've come
But I must be movin' on
My work here is done
Best believe me you, child
The pleasure's been all mine
If you're in need, please do indeed
Call me anytime
Chorus
They've got you medicated
It's got you so frustrated
He caught you masturbatin'
You rather be fornicating
Well then you come with me
I'm gonna set you free
It's just a sexual
Ain't nothin' but a sexual
It's just a sexual thing
Talking:
What you've witnessed is a sexual fantasy
When you was a child life’s a game
But you got all the rules all changed
Pray to a spiritual God for material things
Then wait by the phone but it don't ring
So if you feel like you fell behind
That mountain's got too big to climb
Want to hang your head and say screw it
Forget that sh!t lets get down to it
Come on, baby
chorus
Mind tripper
Dance sister
It'll set you free
Mind tripper
Dance sister
Keep the faith

Don't let your balls go down the drain
It'll set you free
The news man shoves it down our throats
The ratings sore, the victims choke
?? best stand clear
For a few of us who got no fear
So you feel like you sinned baby
You got nothing left to hold, no
Stop feeling like a number
You best forget that sh!t that you been told
Baby bring it on
chorus
Mind tripper
Dance sister
It'll set you free

Mind tripper
Dance sister
That ain't no way to change your past
Just get your head out of your ass
It'll set you free
That sh!t comes down for miles
And it really starts to stink
Then dump it in the ocean
Till it's floatin' at the brink
And when that boat don't float no more
They're just gonna let it sink
Don't ask me no more questions, baby
You know what I think, yeah
Well, have heard about it
All the new talk on the streets
I'm coming on hard, baby
I hope you're ready for a brand new me
So get your head out of the gutter
That's no way to right that wrong
There'll be time enough for sleep
When your dead and gone I said
Bye bye, babe
chorus
Mind tripper
Dance sister
It'll set you free

Who the hell you guys think you are
Rockstars or somethin', oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, limousines, champagne
Get my clothes custom made
I take handfuls of pills
Trash my house in the hills
Smash up my cars
Just to give me my thrills
I'm rollin' 'round the world
I'm gonna do me 'bout a million girls
Well, I break all their hearts
Bring 'em down to their knees
I do what I want
Yeah, I do as I please
I wanna be a big rockstar, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
All the girls'll stroke on my guitar
When I'm a big rock star
Want my face on my wall
Want Cameron Diaz just to give me call
I've been nobodies fool
Gonna die while I'm cool
I make all their laws
And I break all their rules
Porno stars
King of sleaze
Dirty movies
Hey, look at me
Velvet rope, V.I.P.
Hollywood cowboy
Mama look at me
I wanna be a big rockstar, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
I'm gonna push it all way to far
When I'm a big rock star
C.C., do it
I play for the masses
Sex on the stage
Girls shake their asses
They come taste my fame
Backstage is my thing
So get in the ring
We do anything
'Coz here I'm the king
I wanna be a big rockstar, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
I wanna be a big rockstar, yeah
I wanna drive a big black car, yeah
Hearts of fire
Streets of stone
Modern warriors
Saddle iron horses of chrome
Taste the wild
Lick the wind
Like something they never saw before
Their jaws dropping to the floor
Steel made of soul and sin
Rebels born without a care
And the day he listens
Only to fly where eagles dare
And the night she whispers
Chorus:
Ride the wind
Never coming back until I touch the midnight sun
Ride the wind
Never coming back again
Ride the wind
Never coming back until I touch the midnight sun
Painted flesh
Loyalty
Humble pride
Just as far as the eye can see
Stories told
Two old friends
Of battle scars and lonely bars
And nights the rain wouldn't end
Here's to withered eyes wearing gypsy smiles
And the day he listens
Here's to lovely ladies and a million miles
And the night she whispers
Chorus
Ride the wind
I'm still the bravest soul in sin,
Burning till the night is done.
Solo
Of all the truths and lies
And stories of riders in the sky
They say only the bravest try
Where eagles and angels dare to fly
Power to the....
Good evening people, welcome to my party
Bring on the night, let's get it started
You want blood on the stage, well baby you've got it
I welcome all the people who have truly been my friends
F*ck all the bitches who broke my heart again
Love all the women who made my head spin
Baby..because they love me
I can make the sun go down
And I say give the power to the people, people
Bossman, somebody always tryin' to break me
Slick mo-fo, he's always tryin' to take me
In this arena only you can make me...
Sex and violence, a love in a rage...
I'm pacing like a beast locked in a cage
I'm a-comin' I'm a-comin' I'm a-comin' of age
But I know you want me, right
I can make the sun go down
And I say give the power to the people
Solo
I am the sound and I am the light
You are the power that gives me the right
Together we own the night
Good evening people, welcome to my party
Bring on the night, we can get it started
You want my blood on the stage, well baby you've got it
Yes we know we love this
Yes, we know we want this, right
I can make the sun go down
And I say give the power to the people
I can make the sun go down
The boy's in the back room
Billy shooting pool
Trading dirty glances
with the pretty boys playing cool
They're puttin' down the whiskey
gettin loaded tonight
It's gettin' kinda risky
they're lookin' to fight
If you want action
If you want a thrill
then take it down to Jimmy's bad and grill
Chorus:
And play dirty
and dirty games too
Play dirty
like dirty boys do
Tattoo Willy's happenin'
he really makes a scene
He's got anything you like
If ya know what i mean
Troubles up
when the heat comes down
Cause down at Jimmy's
they're not messin' around
Chorus:
Come on, man,let's take this right outside
Come on, sucker, hit it
The place is gettin' restless
there's trouble in the air
All hell's about to break loose
but these dirty punks just dont care
If you want action
If you want a thrill
then take it down to Jimmy's bar and grill
My album sucks, the critics say
I can't sing and I can't play
All I care about is sex and money
I look out-dated, I think that's funny
Chorus
But I'm too shallow to really give a damn
Cause I sing for a party rock band
In '86, fans ripped out my hair
Now it's '96, there ain't none there
The girls used to talk dirty to me
But now it just really hurts when I pee
Chorus
But I'm too stoned to really give a damn
'cause I sing for my party rock band
Bi-sexual girls, come get to know me
You can be my two and only
I'll be your brain-damaged party rock man
Solo
My agent says I need publicity
Told me act depressed, they'd take me seriously
So wrecked my car into a telephone pole
Tried to date the singer from hole
But courtney didn't love me
Don't they understand?
'cause I'm a shallow minded, sex cravin', don't
Care about nothing unless I'm getting laid
just needed someone to hold
When the bottle was empty
And the nights grew cold
In my hour of darkness
In my time of need
You were my angel of mercy
And helped me to believe
You touched my soul
When I was lonely
You held me up
When I couldn't fly
There's no words could explain
How I feel inside
And this I tell you
In a world full of anger
And times gone strange
You held me close
You held me close to you
Lay my head on your shoulder
I finally let it all out
It felt good for a moment
Not living in a shadow of doubt
But everybody needs a little something
Tu pull them through
I gave one for the other
And God know that the other was you
Chorus:
Now only time will tell
Only time will tell
If our love is scratched in sand
Or if it's etched in stone
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
If our love will stand
Or walk the road along
My angel of mercy
Pulled me through somehow
I just hope you know
I need you now
Solo
You're the one
That touched my very soul
The one who held on tight
God knows you never let go
Angel of mercy
It's time we closed the door
Put out the lights
And burn the fire
Burn the fire inside
Angel of mercy
You pulled me through
And this I tell to you
My friend called just the other day
Packed it up he won't be back this way
It's not your heart but the spirit they break
There's only so much a small town boy can take
See the eyes of the countless masses
Drinking life from the empty glasses
Chorus:
No more victims
No more lies
Ne sheer heart attacks
No more empty promises
No more lookin' back
I came here loaded searching for the dream
But nothing is ever easy as it seems
I thought I got closer to it every day
But every day it just got so far away
See all the faces paled
Shot to hell when the system failed
Chorus
I thought I could take all the shit in grind
And stand much more pain
But see all those dead end wishes
heard a funny thing about me
But who the hell are you
I won't say that ain't true,
Lately I've been living on the edge
I don't recognize my own face or my friends.
Chorus:
Read the writing
On the wall
Hey, Mr. Smiley
Wake up, Mr. Smiley
Before you don't wake
Up at all, up at all
Today, I hired me a yes man
He simply agrees with everything I say
He does all my dirty deals
And feeds me my pills
As long as I'm still breathing he gets paid
Solo
Chorus
Yesterday I had a conversation
With all them voices in my head
One said I should quit
One said I was no good
One said to remind myself to get myself a fix
Chorus
Hey Mr. Smiley
And I'm feeling ten feet tall
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
Let's go
Saturday night, Rainbow Bar and Grill
Where there's cocaine lines and a little white pill
A beer and a gin, now I can't see straight
Slip it in, no glove, oops, too late
I remember her face but forgot her name
She forgot mine too, ain't that a shame
Smelled like reefer and my hair's in a mess
I left my love running down her dress
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
Dave from Drowning Pool is here
Steals my women and he drinks my beer
Buys me a pizza and a shot of Jim Beam
And ask who the fuck is Angeline
I to to piss the parking lot well I
Get in a fight but I don't get caught
Hell, no problem 'cuz the night's still young
I want a little more, gonna get ya some
I want to go
I want to go home now
I want to go
I want to go home now
CC, let's go
Rock stars, movie stars, a Hollywood scene
I eat dinner with Nick Cage and Charlie Sheen
Nick asks me what the hell unskinny bop means?
It's slang for CC banging a porno queen
Mario, Michael, Tony and Steady
RV won't ya get table six ready?
My platinum records hang all around
When you was a child life's a game
But you got all the rules all changed
Pray to a spiritual God for material things
Then wait by the phone but it don't ring
So if you feel like you fell behind
That mountain has got to big to climb
Want to hang your head and say screw it
Forget that shit lets get down to it
Come on,baby

I went to bed too late
And got up too soon
My poor head still spinnin'
From too much booze
I got a foot in the gutter
A foot in the grave
I ain't seen home
In the last three days
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
Livin' my life sin after sin
Night rolls up and I do it again
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
No tell, motel
Hotel bed
If it wasn't for the sunlight
I'd swear I was dead
I got a girl on the left of me
A girl on the right
I know damn well
I slept with both last night
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
Livin' my life sin after sin
Night rolls up and I do it again
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
Yeah, sin after sin
I'm late for work on Monday
And my boss is bitchin'
Can't get out of bed
'Cause my head's still spinnin'
My hair's in a rat's nest
I look like hell
Half alive or half dead
I just can't tell
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
Livin' my life sin after sin
Night rolls up and I do it again
Oh my God, look what the cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in, ow, in
Look what the cat dragged
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Cat dragged in
Got no time to think about good intentions Don't wanna think about tomorrow Got no time to think about indiscretions Don't wanna think about past reflections Chorus 'cause I'm liv'in in the now, yeah Liv'in in the now Hold tight it'll be alright Hold tight it'll be alright Lock you in a cage A little unsure today Unkind thing to say Flies into a rage Chorus (2) Everyday is shorter than the day before saving for a rainy day is just a metaphor Chorus It's so easy to offend When venom is your friend Wounds can never mend And you don't try Chorus (2) Chorus (Solo) Now you watch me bleed 'cause you never did believe me Only to decieve with just one lie Chorus (2) Chorus x 2 out
North side, east side, little Willy
Willy wears the crown, he's the king around town
Dancing, glancing, Willy drives them silly
With his star shoe, shimmy shuffle down
Way past one and feeling alright
'Cause with little Willy 'round, they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy 'round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Up town, down town, little Willy
Willy drives them wild with his runaround style
Inside, outside, Willy sends them silly
With his star-shine, shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase Willy down the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cause little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy 'round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Little Willy, Willy won't, Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't, Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't, Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't, Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy 'round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy 'round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
I felt this before now I feel it again
No matter how hard I try
This feeling won't end
So I pretend you're here by my side
Tonight on this lonely ride
Keep telling myself that
Life goes on while you're miles away
And I need you
Time rolls on as night steals the day
There's nothing I can do
You heal up my wounds
I tasted your tears
You spilled out your heart
So I let out my fears
But one fear that I kept to myself
How I prayed that you'd love no one else
Like you're saying you love me
Life goes on while you're miles away
And I need you
Time rolls on as night steals the day
There's nothing I can do
If you only knew how much I miss you
When my mind plays these tricks on me
It shows me things I don't want to see
That's why I tell myself now
I keep telling myself now
Just take another piece of me
Life goes on while you're miles away
And I need you
Time rolls on as night steals the day
There's nothing I can do
Life goes on you're still miles away
And I need you
Welcome to my city
The girls are so damn pretty
Such a pity, they don't come for free
Just call me pimp daddy
I'll roll ya one big fatty
I think your gonna like hangin with me
Chorus
Welcome to my city of sin
I believe your gonna fit right in
Yes this is my city of sin
Your first lesson is about to begin
Now you're living in the city of sin
You don't mind if i call you friend
Once you enter you can never get out of here
Welcome to hollyweird
I'm the king of the streets
I own the cops, the junkies and freaks
It's human wasteland i call home
Grow your hair to your shoes
Trust me boy you just can't lose
Sitting here in my cell writing a letter
Thanking all the people who made my living conditions better
And thanks to the justice system
I'm making a million
My lawyer got me a book deal
Now I'm making a killing just from making a killing
I got an agent for the publicity
An accountant to count my royalties
The talk shows want me, sorry I can't go
I'm stuck here on death row
You call me hannibal lechter, if I was smarter
If I was charlie manson you'd make me a martyr wouldn't ya
You'd call me a handsome man if I was bundy
But if I looked like john wayne gasey you'd just say I'm funny, not ha ha funny
Chorus:
Tried to act my career just flopped
Killed my neighbor, got on cops
Problem is, I only made one show now
I'm stuck here on death row
The poor victim's families never make a dime
Networks say I'm not prime time
All my cell mates on my cell block
Say I'm the hottest topic at the coffee shops
Waitress cries, "god how they should free me"
Send me her love letters, says someday she'd really love to meet me
Tells her customers people should forgive me for the things I do
I wonder if I kill her would her family forgive me too?
Chorus
Thanks for the attention and the publicity
The taxpayer's dollars that you spend on me
Thanks for the good meal, dry bed, and these warm clothes
Mama, please let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
No way, son, you can't go out tonight
So I got real upset, put up the biggest fight
Chorus:
Mama, let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
Mama, let me go out tonight
Mama, please, before I lose my mind
Out the window
Shimmy down the tree
I take a look around
Make sure no one's watching me
I steal the keys and take
My old man's chevrolet
I can hear my mama scream
From ten miles away
Chorus:
Rock and roll rodeo
Rock and roll rodeo
I've spent my life waiting
For that famous final scene
I believe you know the one--
When she falls in love with me
As for you, you've been fakin' your smile
Fillin' your time
On small talk
And cheap wine
Knowing in your heart there was someplace
That you'd rather be
So right or wrong,
I wrote you this song
To tell you how I feel
Don't put up no fight
You just turn off the lights
Walk over here to me
Chorus:
And lay your body down on me
Down on me tonight, oh yeah
Oh, let your tears fall down on me
Down on me tonight, oh yeah
As for me I've lied to, denied to
Fight with, and tried to
Apologize for all my ways
To all the women who were fool enough to fall
In love with me
You played your role
Like a movie
Got your lines for who is,
Who was, who would be
Somehow you lost track
While real love slipped away, yeah
So for tonight, just turn off the lights
And let those real feelings show
There's no wrong or right
But until you try
You're never gonna know
Chorus
Before you was mine
I was so lonely
Ain't it a shame
Your heart must feel pain
Before you get back on your feet again
Solo
So let's draw the blinds
Forget wasted time
And let them old demons die
Take ahold of my hand
Then you'd understand
Oh yeah
Rock you baby
My pretty girl, you move so sexy in your skin
Spread your wings for me, let my love come in
My sexy girl, all the world's your stage
You love to feel my passion
You love to feed my rage
Chorus
Give me your faith, you take my hand
You be my girl, I'll be your man
My love's forever, my heart is true
You live for me, I'd die for you
Believe me, baby
Pretty girl, lives inside my head
Like an angel hanging above my bed
I think about you when I'm pacing in my cage
How I loved your eyes, how you loved my evil ways
Chorus
I am love, you are hate
You are laughter, I am rage
My love's forever, my heart is true
You live for me, I'd die for you
Oh yeah, rock it, baby
Guitar solo
Bridge
Pretty girl, I'd protect you from the pain
I will be your sinner, I will be your saint
My sexy girl is so hard to please
She's all I ever wanted, all I ever need
Chorus
You be my girl, I'll be your man
Believe in me, give me your hand
I pull my gun, my aim is true
You'd die for me, 'cause I'd die for you
Oh yeah, rock it baby
You are love, I am hate
You're a sinner and I'm a saint
We are laughter, we are rage
Crime of passion, gonna seal my fate
You're the fire, I'm gasoline
I'm coming on like a war machine
My love is strong, my soul is true
Late at night I close my eyes
And think of how things could have been
And when I look back
I remember some words you had said to me
It’s better to have lost at loveThen never to have loved at all
I won’t forget you baby
Even though I should
I won’t forget you baby
Even though I should, yeah
Sometimes in my head
I can still see pictures of you
And I laugh to myself
When I think of all those crazy things that we used to do
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
I won’t forget you baby
Even though I should
I won’t forget you baby
Even though I should, yeah
I should let you fade away
But that just wouldn’t be me
Oh, baby
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
I won’t forget you baby
Memories slowly fade
I won’t forget you baby
And all the plans we made
Well you just step right up, you sexy thing
Tell me what's been goin' on in that funky little brain
Come dance with the devil
You want it when it's gonna cost you
'cause nothing comes for free
When you're living in a human zoo
Chorus
Dance sister dance through the human zoo
You're such a mess now, girl
Look what they've done to you...
In the human zoo
Look what they've done to you
All love lost, in a fit of rage
Sell your soul for revenge and seal your fate
Welcome to the nightmare
I've been expecting you
Say anything you like, baby
Just don't let me hear your point of view
Chorus
Dance sister dance through the human zoo
Dance sister dance through the human zoo
You're such a mess now, girl
Look what they done to you...
In the human zoo
Look what they done to you
Look what, look what they done, baby
They made a mess of you
Harmonica solo
Bridge
Hanoi rocks and saigon rolls
Just drop the bomb then watch it explode
Sign of the times read "too young to vote"
But old enough to die for you
We got the medication you need
Just don't let us hear your point of view
Chorus
Dance sister dance through the human zoo
Friday night at midnight
Looking for what I need
I heard a tale that somewhere
That a dude had a real go at me
So like a rat race cowboy
I slipped into the human zoo
Headed down some trouble
Got myself a drink or two
Well I took to the streets
And I took to the bars
Marched right in but I didn’t get far
Manager said hey boy there’s the door
But I didn’t leave until I evened the score
chorus
I gotta face the hangman
Gotta pay for what I done
I gotta face the hangman
Or by the noose I swing
In the morning sun
Like a tipsy gypsy
Looking like I’d been had
But like the story says
This wild-eyed boy is bad
I got a police squad car
Taxi to the local slam
They said
Son you’re gonna pay for what you’ve done
But I don’t give a damn
Just cause I like to drink and dance all night
An alley cat brawl in an old fist fight
Give me no lip boy or I’ll kick you in the mouth
Watch you head fly north and your teeth fly south
chorus
Now the judge looked and me and said
"that boy… he definitely be guilty"
Don't give up an inch girl
If you won't take me for the mile
Don't give up an inch girl
If you won't take me for the mile
Miles from home and I'm all alone
And looking for the first time
We took a long ride
And there by her side
I did my first crime
Well Mary Mary
Quite contrary
Just how does your garden grow
She said you ring my bell
And rattle my shell
I'll be your pretty maid all in a row
Put me to the test
Lay me down to rest
While her nails cut me up like a knife
Put me in you
Like a flesh tattoo
And scared this poor boy for life
Don't give up an inch girl
If you won't tak eme for the mile
Don't give up an inch girl
If you won't take me for the mile
It was a hot one
In the summer sun
And more than heat was rising
I remember that September
And just how you left me smiling
I left there shaken body was achin'
Like it never did before
Begged and pleaded
Swear I needed
Needed you a whole lot more
Put me to the test
Lay me down to rest
While her nails cut me up like a knife
Put me in you
Like a flesh tattoo
And scared this poor boy for life
Put me to the test
Lay me down to rest
While her nails cut me up like a knife
Put me in you
Like a flesh tattoo
And scared this poor boy for life
Made this boy's bell ring
And there I earned my wings
Left me there in sweet pain
Hell I'll never be the same
Don't give up an inch girl
If you won't take me for the mile
Don't give up an inch girl
Coughing, blues? : "gol, bret--don't touch me there!"
Bret: I'm gonna tell you who we are.
Well we're big rock singers
We got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go
(that sounds like us)
We sing about beauty
And we sing about truth
At ten million dollars a show
(yeah, right!)
We take all kinda pills
That give us all kinda thrills
But the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that it gets ya
When you get your picture
On the cover of the rolling stone
Chorus:
Rolling stone
I'm gonna see my picture on the cover
Stone
Gonna buy five copies for my mother
Stone
Gonna see my smiling face
On the cover of the rolling stone
I got a freaky old lady named cocaine katie
Who embroiders on my jeans
I got my poor old gray-haired daddy
Driving my limousine.
Now it's all designed to blow our minds,
But our minds won't really be blown
Like the blow that'll getcha
When you get your picture
On the cover of the rolling stone
Chorus
Spoken: hey, I know how!!!
Solo
Spoken: beautiful!
We gotta lot of little teen-aged
Blue-eyed groupies
Who do anything we say
We got a genuine indian guru
He's teaching us a better way
We got all the friends that money can buy,
So we never have to be alone
And we keep gettin' richer,
But we can't get our picture
On the cover of the rolling stone
Chorus
Talking:
I don't know why we ain't on the cover, baby!
Ah we're beautiful fellas!
I ain't kiddin' you man, we'd make a beautiful cover
I mean, I can see it right now--we be up front,
Oh, we be smilin'....beautiful!
My chick is driving me crazy
She thinks that I'm lazy
Just because I'm good at nothing all day
My baby don't get it
So my job, I quit it
Bust my ass,
Hell I barely get paid
People like to put me down
And just because I hang around
Don't they understand it's my way?
Chorus:
Everybody tries to break me
Say they love me when they hate me
Baby you just can't bring me down
I've seen long and lonely days
And I have lost and found my ways
So baby you just can't bring me...down
Yeah, bring me down
Baby I'm leaving
You've got my heart bleeding
So I'm taking the easier way out
The angel in my head
Is now the devil in my bed
If my walls could talk they would shout
Baby you can talk and talk
The hurt you caused, it just don't stop
I think I'm going out of my brain
Chorus
Solo
I got a car, it go fast
Cute fuzzy dice up on the dash
Got a bumper sticker, just say "peace"
Keep a gun under my seat
To protect me from the pain
Should your words get in my brain
Can't you love me just the same
Yeah, Blues!)
I won't ask where you're going
If you don't ask where I've been
'Cause if you're looking for an answer, babe
I wouldn't know where to begin.
I don't know what I want sometimes
But I sure know what I likes
You've got that thing about you
Gets me hot inside
If it makes no sense when I wrote this song
Cause half way through it you were turning me on
Chorus #1:
Lay me down
I just might be your kind
I'll show you a better way
We can do away the time
If you stop looking so hard
I think you just might find
I ain't finding it so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had
You know a little 'bout love and
I know a lot about hate
I believe you gotta make things happen
You believe in fate
But this won't be the first time that
we didn't see eye to eye
You may not be religious but I'll make you see God
If you give me a try
I know love can get me through it
If you give me that look we'll get down to it
Chorus #2:
Don't shoot me down
I'm not a social disease
You've got that thing about you
Bring a grown man to his knees
I'll teach you baby
'bout them birds and them bees
When you get around
And think about it ain't so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had
Best thing I ever had
Solo
Ah, give me some of that!
When I put out the dog
ya get them old ghosts out of bed.....
I ain't looking for a little to say
Baby some place to lay my head
I'm the one to right your wrong
So you want to talk about the pain
Talk to me, please explain
Maybe I know what your going through
You got so much pain to hide
You keep it locked up deep inside
In a room no one gets to
I can't feel the way you feel
Maybe i, I've got those same scars, same scars to heal
Wish you've got to understand
I want to be the only man to
Ever touch you baby
To ever...
Chorus:
I'll be there should the sun go down
Lift you up to a higher ground
Let me in, let me be the one
I'll be there should you fall from grace
Wipe those tear drops from your face
I see no more damage done
Baby, baby,
Just let me be the one
I want to be the one to shelter you
Should the rains come down
Never let you drown
I'll pull you through
I want to hear you when you scream
Be your prince when you dream
Hold you close when you cry
I said...
I want to feel your love, your hate
Should you be lost, I'll bear your cross of pain
Love seal your fate
I'll comfort you in fits of rage
I'll be the book you can turn the page, and
I'll still love baby
I'll still...
Chorus
I gotta touch you I'll see no more damage done
You gotta let me
Solo
I hear the hurt I hear the scars
You can lay your hand right down across my heart
Then you'll learn to understand
I want to be the only man to
Ever touch you baby, ever touch you baby ever
Chorus
I'll be calm in fits of rage
Hold you close in times of pain
I see more damage done
not a dime can't a pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I like to make my girl
but right now I can't make ends meet no
I'm always workin' Slavein'
every day gotta get away from the same old same old
I need a chance just to get away if you can hear me
think this is what I'd say
Don't need nothin' but a good time
how can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
and it don't get better than this
So I spent my money on women and wine
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
I'm real sorry 'bout the shape I'm in
I just a like my fun every now and then
I'm always workin' Slavein'
every day gotta get away from the same old same old
I need a chance just to get away if you can hear me
think this is what I'd say
Don't need nothin' but a good time
how can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
and it don't get better than this
You see I, I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day.
If wantin' a good life is such a crime
WELL LORD THEN PUT ME AWAY!
Yeah here's to ya
Guitar!
(Guitar Solo)
Don't need nothin' but a good time
how can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
and it don't get better than this
Don't need nothin' but a good time
how can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
and it don't get better than this
Well it's friday night and I'm waiting
On your call girl, like I do
Am I wasting my time by this telephone line
Waiting on your call to come through
Chorus:
I should be already over you
Tell me mama, what can I do
It's been a long hard road that you put me through
Seven days over you
Seven days, seven days over you
Seven days over you
Kick it
I kick and fight for you baby
But that's never enough for you
You've been twisted and torn since the day you were born
You make a game of breaking hearts in two
Now I want to give up but I dig the rush too much
I guess that's what love will do
So drag your heart-stopping mind trip downtown, girl
By friday night I'll find someone new
Chorus
Lord knows what you put me through
(here it comes)
Well funky monkey’s in the jungle tonight
They got two by two don’t hear me right
Band playing loudly baby
Gone are the days when the days gone
I said gone
When the monkeys are gone
Gone or dead this is what they said
chorus
Lost Mary
Cries, cries, cries
Yeah she does, yeah baby, that is what she did
Lions sleeps, baby
the lamb surely dies (??)
I just don't want to f*ck you
That’s it
When the jungle sleeps
Is when the monkey shine
I said you do baby ? don’t mind
Back ? are wild
If the deuces left in than the deuces are wild
I said baby, well,
chorus
Lost Mary
Cries, cries, cries
Yeah ?
Lions sleeps, baby
Dies, dies, dies
I just don't want to f*ck you
ooooh, kick it!
solo
Give me some of that
Well dime store cowboy shoot your gun
Knock them mother f*ckers down one by one
Money on up it’s in your face
Gimme no lip or get your face back here
Ooh, got it right
When the monkey don’t sleep
And the money don’t shine
It takes two to tango
In the heat of the night
You're gonna give it in
No matter how you fight
Hot nights, pretty women
And a bottle of gin
Fine floozy sitting pretty
In the city of sin
I'm knocking on your back door
Baby let me in
Chorus:
I'll take you down
Light your fuse baby
Set your soul on fire
Make your body sweat
Soaking wet
In the midnight hour
Step closer my seniorita
It's so nice to meet ya
I see your eyes say no
But your flesh is weak
Well sweet salt shaker
And rattle my bones
One more inch I'm gonna drive it home
Hate to see a pretty little woman all alone
Chorus
She said are you gonna nibble baby
Or are you gonna take yourself a bite
You invite me closer honey
And I just might
I don't want money or a big black car
I just wanna know how I'm doing so far
Lately I can tell that something ain’t right
I don’t see the fire when I look in your eyes
One time up and the next time down
This may be the last time that you’ll see me around
Well it sure seems to me nothing matters tonight
And all those days we worked out, they got lost in the fight
It’s not enough girl, that I gave you my soul
I just wanna know if we’ve got anything left at all
And I say, hold on now baby
This could be the last time we stand
This could be the last time that we say goodbye
When the picture shatters
I can’t find the words to save it
Tell me what to do, how can I make it right
We will always be fire and ice
Well, promises made in the heat of the night
You can sure spit ‘em out girl, but they’ve long passed me by
Nobody knows about the show you put me through
This could be the last time that I get through to you
And I say, hold on now baby
This could be the last time we stand
This could be the last time that we say goodbye
When the picture shatters
I can’t find the words to save it
Tell me what to do, how can I make it right
We will always be fire and ice, oh no, no
Oh I can’t stand to see the more damage done
But you’ll never understand until you suffer some
And I say, hold on now baby
This could be the last time we stand
This could be the last time that we say goodbye
When the picture shatters
I can’t find the words to save it
Tell me what to do, how can I make it right
{Unskinny bop, yeah

Baby, will you be my girl
Kristi, will you be my girl
I'll take you to a better place,
There's no pain and no disgrace in a perfect world
We'll drive that ragtop cadillac
We'll drive that ragtop cadillac
Straight across the nevada line
Radio playin' hair flying
No turning back
Chorus
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Baby, I live for times like these
Give me a reason to believe
For a moment times stands still
For a moment times stands still
I feel no shame, I feel no violence
For the moment and in the silence
I feel that peace.
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Baby, I live for times like these
Give me a reason to believe
Solo
Sun rises in the east
Sun rises in the east
For a moment in your eyes,
I catch a glimpse of a different life
Smile at fate
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Hey babe, I live for times like these
Baby, I live for times like these
Give me a reason to believe
There's no famous final scene, no movie starts
No limousines, everything we'll leave behind
There's no waiting on the other side
Just you and me for a better place
I swear I live for times like these
You're all I need
That's all I need
On a cold night in a hotel in new orleans
Came the final blow
And somehow somewhere we lost sight
In our search for that pot of gold
And all that happened I don't understand
Could somebody here, somebody please explain to me
Cause I'm feeling so damn deceived
And I can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
Theatre of my soul....play on child
Ashes to ashes...light the good lord lays us down
Dust to dust, oh, no
The time has come to lay to rest the years
All the years it took this heart to trust
Maybe too much too soon, I couldn't get my head on straight
All that worry, just wasted time
And now it's much too late to save it
Long forgotten midnight dancer
Plays her final role
The curtain falls and I'm still standing
Theatre of my soul you left in vain
Could someone please explain, and I said
Solo
I know that nothing's the same
Riding blind on the winds of change
But in my head that scene just keeps on playing
Long forgotten midnight dancer
Plays her final role, oh, yes she does
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
The curtain falls and I'm still standing
In the theatre of my soul
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
When time it just keeps on passing,
I got to let it go, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately
I keep searching for those long lost answers
In the theatre of my soul
A verdict heard by the jury's word...they're lying
I watch as the victims of the slave ships battle with the demons inside
But no wrong ever righted or proved by the innocent dying
I pray from the ashes of the ruins, the answer will rise
Chorus:
Hey (the scream)
Hear their screams as they rise from the ashes
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
A child is born to a world that is slowly dying
He chooses to march to the beat of a different drum
A man lays dead in the street, his mama is crying
The people, they measure this man by the damage he's done
Chorus
Lord praise the man who can hear the scream
Forgive us for our sins, I never meant the things I did
He swears he'll love you by candlelight
And for a while things seem all right
And for a moment he hides
The devil that lies inside
And then one night in a fit of rage
The demon raises his hand in hate
And brings it down on you
There is nothing you can do
And then one night in a twist of fate
The angels bring your face to me
I cannot erase the memories
Of you lying there looking up at me
Chorus
Please take the demon from my head
Won't you please erase the memories
And ghosts who haunt my bed
I just want you to understand
That I'm gonna be the only man
To ever touch your soul
And I ain't never letting go
There's a room that lies down the hall
Where you sit and write you poems
Of love and mystery
Of faith and fantasy
And you keep a secret lover there
And a book beside an easy chair
That you read before you go to bed
To hide the memories in your head
And now I try to understand the pain
You struggle for the words to say
It don't come out right
As you lay your body down
Chorus
There's a place where you go
I've been, I'll never know
The pain you keep inside
The secrets that you hide
But I try to understand your pain
And be a shelter from the falling rain
Just maybe I feel what you're going through
Maybe I have been there too
Please take the demons from my head
Won't you please take the demons from my head
(Yeah, Blues!)
I won't ask where you're going
If you don't ask where I've been
'Cause if you're looking for an answer, babe
I wouldn't know where to begin.
I don't know what I want sometimes
But I sure know what I like
You've got that thing about you
Gets me hot inside
The words made no sense when I wrote this song
Cause half way through it you were turning me on
Chorus:
Lay me down
I just might be your kind
I'll show you a better way
We can do away the time
If you stop looking so hard
I think you just might find
I ain't finding it so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had

I'll teach you baby
'bout them birds and them bees
When you get around
And think about it ain't so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had
Best thing I ever had
Solo
Ah, give me some of that!
When I put out the dog
You get them old ghosts out of bed
I ain't looking for an angel to save me
Just some place to lay my head, dig?
I'm the one to right your wrong
If you give me a chance and I'll turn you on
Chorus:
Lay me down
I just might be your kind
I'll show you a better way
We can do away the time
If you stop looking so hard
I think you just might find
I ain't finding it so bad
Might be the best thing you ever had

I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the poison. I got the poison. I got the poison.
Yeah... Yeah... Yeah...
It was one of those black cat nights The moon had gone out and the air was thin It was the kind of night that the cat would drag in. I'll never forget it, we had a fight. Then you turned around turned on the light. You left our bed. Then you moved downstairs to live with her instead. Yeah just one floor and a shout away, I guess I should have moved but I decided to stay. Did I drink some poison that I don't remember now? And every night I open all the windows I let a cold dark wind blow through. I play loud organ music and I talk to myself and dream of you. Uh oh! I hear voices coming up through the pipes through all the springs in my bed and up through the lights The volume goes up then it drops back down I can hear the two of you playing records moving furniture and fooling around. Did I drink some poison that I don't remember now? Is there blood on my hands/ No, my hands are clean. Did I do something in another lifetime that was really really mean? Yeah, I'm hearing voices. Am I losing my mind? Think I'm g
oing craz, I gotta get out. I run into the street and I start to shout Get ou of my way! Get out! Get out! Did I drink some poison that I don't remember now? Is there blood on my hands? Did I do something in another lifetime that was really really mean? A small bullet, a piece of glass And your heart just grows around it.
(L. Stansfield/I. Devaney/A. Morris)
Spoken:
Don't worry about me, baby
Whenever you walk by me, I can here you breath
I can smell the love you made when you were gone
Darlin' don't deny it, or make excuses
I've heard too many lies, to know that I'm not wrong
Baby don't insult me
I'm too tired to let it hurt me
Baby just believe me
And give me back my key, and set me free
Chorus:
Keep you're body to yourself, or give it to somebody else
You're poison
Can't you you see I'm far to tough to let it hurt
I've had enough of your poison
Don't lay your hands upon me
Just crawl back where you came from
I shutter at the thought of you touching me
You've stained the love I gave you
Baby, not for long
So much I could have given you
But now you'll never know
Baby don't insult me
I'm too tired to let it hurt me
Baby just believe me
And give me back my key, and set me free
Chorus
Got bad habits on your mind, you're underhanded
I'm not blind to your poison
Spoken:
Don't make me laugh, you've told so many lies
And of all the lies you told me, baby, you're the biggest
You think you've hurt me
I'm far too strong to let it get to me
Can't you see that I'm not crying anymore
So just get off my back, and leave me alone
Chorus
Kool G Rap and Polo
Back again
What?
This is poison so be alert and cautious
Those who act courageous you will get nauseous
Infected or contaminated
Turn on your stereo never come radio-activated
Deadly and fatal, poison the title
My recital hits the parts that are vital
So tune in the tone of beats and poems
Polo's headphones becomes a skull and crossbones
Pull out your Q-tips, clean out the earwax
If you're still hard of hearing, I'mma scrub them with Ajax
With maximum drum so behave and remember
You're a slave to my sound wave
Faster rhymes I mastermind I have to find
A new method time after time
Write a rhyme quick when I pull out my Bic pen
Stick to an idea, the soundproof slick then
Put it on paper cause I make you hyper
Than any other rapper cause I keep my rapping riper
Like cherries or some say berries
Mandatory for the auditory and its glory
Here's the story: rappers getting leery to hear me
G speaks in a new technique of fury
Domination of drums and noise and
Yo yo yo Polo yo this is poison
Poison! [x3]
Look-alikes on the mic you should get off
You're a rip-off, I'mma rip up, get rid of, cause you bit off
Bite off ate off imitate off
They get paid off for G Rap to get laid off
Get up and sit up the butterer and buttercup
Male or female shut them up, Po shut her up
Yeah hide my line as you pick them up
Rob me blind of my rhymes you might as well have said stick them up
Letters of metaphor matters to better the fatter your pocket
Rhymes blast off like rockets
Rhymes will be replaced and beats erased
In case a rapper tries to trace hardcore bass
Made in a minute the sky is the limit
For reaching the goal and the dream wouldn't you want to be in it to win
Biters are wanted like animals hunted
Soon as I get them I hit them I done it to the suckers who fronted
The rappers who made it and did it
Forget about winning the battle cause I'mma shake rattle and roll
A little something for girls and boys and
Yo yo Polo my man yo this is poison
A mind designed to find a rhyme that's right on time
One step beyond and not behind the line
That separates dogs from divine
Take it as a caution, or a warning sign
Whether antonyms, words I'm blending them
Homonyms, synonyms, good like M&M;'s
With Polo and while he's slicing
I'll turn the mike's last name into Tyson
My brain is like a factory constantly creating
Material stitch by stitch for decoration
Lyrics are fabrics, beat is the lining
My passion in rhyming is fashion designing
Now it gets odd it, cause people want to sport it
You bought it, if you didn't then you couldn't afford it
Poetry full of surprises, it's like a game show
And my brain glows just like a rainbow
Rappers and poets they already know it
G Rap is a terror not a error and never will I stop reaching for better
Whether wheels of steel or reel to reel
G Rap will make you feel the real deal
I usually rap hardcore and I know
That y'all thinking am I somehow semi, so
We yell "party" and girls and boys and
Originally performed by Venom
Your love is infectious,
Your rotten to the core,
Every body knows what you got,
But they still come back for more,
Your everybodys favourite,
You give them all a good time,
Your loves a total disaster,
But when they sign the dotted line they're,
Poisoned
One night with you and you've got me,
Poisoned,
Making love with the devils daughter,
Poisoned,
One night with you and you've got me,
Poisoned,
That dirty little bitch has got me,
Poisoned.
Sitting close beside me,
Hand upon my zip,
Don't bother to take it down, honey,
It's about to rip,
She's mammy's little virgin,
Her daddy's all in pride,
But she welcomed me with opened legs,
Kept me satisfied.
Tell me that you love me,
Say you'll never leave,
The more I give the more you take,
The more that you receive,
I got you down beneath me,
Open wide (ha ha),
I'm gonna make you pay for all,
I've got a house in the back of my head
But I can't find a permanent resident
'Cause the markets down and
The area's not so good these days
I've got a watch but I don't have time
I got a road and it leads to decadence
But a dead end sign waits down the line
I leave my footprints for the evidence
So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter, your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
You can take my life
But you can't take it with you
More long days and fleeting nights
So tell them, wake me under flashing lights
'Cause I'm a brand name bought and sold
They say a face for fame is a crying shame
Because to face the crowd is to play their game
And I can play a little too rough now and again
You drank the poison and I let you in
So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter, your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
You can take my life but you can't take it with you
You drank the poison and I, I let you in
Would you trade that heart of gold for a minute in my skin
You drank the poison and I, I let you in
Would you trade that heart of gold for a minute in my skin
So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter, your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
When time is tight. Huh? You can use it. Uh-huh.
Gonna break this up. What? Before we lose it. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
We just let things slide. All the way home.
Over all these years. And nothing was done.
Turn over once.
Turn over twice.
And now the clock has stopped
For me and for you
I'm not afraid
Of bursting at the seams
And there's nothing that we can do.
Gotta check these out (right) He don't like it Uh-huh.
Got an empty head (huh?) And she can't stand it. Uh-huh uh-huh
We just let things slide. All the way home.
Over all these years. And nothing was done.
Get a hold of his hands
Hold of this legs
Hold on curly top
Hold over blue
Dragged through the dust
What do I care?
Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not
Touch (dont touch)
I want to hold you but my senses
Tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too
Much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips
Are venomous poison
Youre poison running through my
Veins
Youre poison, I dont want to
Break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, Im caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat
I hear you calling and its needles
And pins (and pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you
Screaming my name
Dont want to touch you but
Youre under my skin (deep in)
I want to kiss you but your lips
Are venomous poison
Youre poison running through my veins
Youre poison, I dont wanna
Break these chains
Poison
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not
Touch (dont touch)
I want to hold you but my senses
Tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too
Much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips
Are venomous poison
Youre poison running through my
Veins
Youre poison, I dont wanna
Break these chains
Poison
I want to love you but I better not
Touch (dont touch)
I want to hold you but my senses
Tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too
Much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips
Are venomous poison, yeah
I dont want to break these chains
Poison, oh no
Runnin deep inside my veins,
Burnin deep inside my veins
Its poison
I dontt wanna break these chains
She's a flower she's a rose
Wonderful when she's close
But you'll see, don't say I didn't warn you
Every rose has it's thorn
She poisoned me like a virus
Her love is running through my veins
She is extremely contagious
All boys will get the same
Blood red lips, lovely smile
But behind something hides
You will feel, late at night
Razorteeth take a bite
Memories bother me
She comes back haunting me
If I could meet her once again
The partisans not the artisans
Are doing their dirty show
But i ripped my pants
Doing some dance
That i learned in France
And they think there ain't
nothin' to know
Used, abused
Locked up, beaten and fined
But i got free
Copped a plea
And i can see
That there ain't no freedom
bell gonna chime
This time
Truth and love
are my law and worship
Form and conscience
my manifestation and guide
Nature and peace are
my shelter and companion
Order is my attitude
Beauty and perfection
Are my attack
False faces
Fast company
A night of thrills
With no jealousy, no poison
Nobody's tool
Will be a public fool
To manipulate the masses
Who lie and cheat
And eat their meat
And think it's sweet
While the rest all clean their glasses
One Voice Lyrics : Poison
I met this guy a year ago
somewhere down south in Mexico
He was dancin€™ and he was baskin€™
And I was thinking Damn have to have him
I slash right by to catch his eye
Looked out for a minute
And there he was goin by
We€™re Hangin€™ and he was wealthy
And I was going oohh Sema Hundai
Guess I was caught up (Quit playin)
To blame that funny up/stuff
If I would of known back then
(I) probably wouldn€™t test my luck(Quit Playin)
Playin his silly games
(He) killed me with his touch (Quit Playin)
Killin me with his kiss
(I) Just couldn€™t get enough
He€™s poison, He€™ll hurt you
He got me before you (He€™s Lyin)
He€™s so smooth its so use
He€™s poison he€™ll get you
He€™s Poison, he€™ll get you (He€™s Lyin)
He got me before you (He€™s Lyin)
He€™s so smooth, its no use
He€™s poison he€™ll get you
From the dance floor to his estate
We were speeding all down the highway
We were kissing and rubbin
So addictive to his lovin€™
Guess I was caught up (Quit playin)
TO blame that funny stuff
If I would of known back then
(I) probably wouldn€™t test my luck(Quit Playin)
Playin his silly games
(He) killed me with his touch (Quit Playin)
Killin me with his kiss
(I) Just couldn€™t get enough
He€™s poison, He€™ll hurt you
He got me before you (He€™s Lyin)
He€™s so smooth its so use
He€™s poison he€™ll get you
He€™s Poison, he€™ll get you (He€™s Lyin)
He got me before you (He€™s Lyin)
He€™s so smooth, its no use
He€™s poison he€™ll get you
For all you, girls out there

He€™ll get you to love him
And then he€™ll€
Disappear, Disappear OH!

He€™s so smooth, its no use
He€™s poison he€™ll get you

(RedOne) Nicole... Yeah
[Verse 1]
Got venom dripping from my lips
Know who you're about to kiss
Think that you can handle it, boy, it's on
Just step into the danger zone
Shake it if you wanna roll, never bend,
Just take control, stakes are on
So sick, get a grip, gonna stick to a stick
I don't think that I can stop this
Pick it up, let it drop, when it drops slip it up
Oh no, I'll never stop
[Chorus]
That bad girl power I got, I'll abuse it tonight
Cause tonight got poison on my mind
That power I got you'll be mine when I stay till real late
Got poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh)
I got that poison, that poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh)
I got that poison, that poison on my mind
[Verse 2]
So cool out, let her in the scene
Cause tonight I need to kiss a sexy little dirty scream, yeah, it's on
Then I get you in my sleep, it ought to be extreme
You're so cool, baby, you're so mean (Turn me on, turn me on)
So sick, get a grip, gonna stick to a stick
I don't think that I can stop this
Pick it up, let it drop, when it drops slip it up
Oh no, I'll never stop, hey
[Chorus]
That bad girl power I got, I'll abuse it tonight
Cause tonight got poison on my mind
That power I got, you'll be mine when I stay till real late
Got poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh)
I got that poison, that poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh)
I got that poison, that poison on my mind
[Bridge]
I got that poison, that poison, that poison
I'll make you fall in love with me
(Turn me on, turn me on)
I got that poison, that poison, that poison
I'll make you fall in love with me
(Turn me on, turn me on)
That bad girl power I got, I'll abuse it tonight
Got poison on my mind
That power I got, you'll be mine till the light
Got poison on my mind
[Chorus]
That bad girl power I got, I'll abuse it tonight
Cause tonight got poison on my mind
That power I got, you'll be mine when I stay till real late
Got poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh, uh huh)
Got poison on my mind
I got that poison (uh huh), I got that poison (uh huh, uh huh)
I once thought I did know all about it
Since the rain falls, the wind blows and the sun shines
Don't you know that your creator is a'running out of ideas?
I know that I might die from poison
Invisible hanging there in the sunlight
And don't you know that your creator is a'running out of ideas?
If I was you I'd be friendly to your neighbour
Be glad that he don't want to be your enemy

I would kill to taste the bricks
Of a city not quite so routine, so routine
See me breaking, see me fall
But we're still stuck in these walls
See me breaking, see me fall
So it's deathbeds for us all
But I can't
I will bear the chains once more
To be underground with your mercy
Tonight I'll escape the pavement and the
Now the city has gone under
And my streets are so much colder
Than what was a desert passing us by
See me breaking, see me fall
See me breaking, see me fall into your
I will bear the chains once more
To be underground with your mercy
Tonight I'll escape the pavement and the floor
But we're still stuck in these walls
So it's deathbeds for us all
White lines across our maps
Across your, across your
White lines across our map
Across your, across your
I will bear the chains once more
To be underground with your mercy
Tonight I'll escape the pavement and the floor
But were still stuck in these walls
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
I'm going to meet you
Voices are child in sound fades away
For silence is walking
Signs of you will leave
What will happen and now the same as you
'Til the end of someone's world
And the cradle says goodbye to yesterday
Painfully, I prepare a release
And poison takes me away
Poison takes me away, takes me away
Listen, don't cry my child
When you awake
My father's table has set a place for you
Contact, with fire full love
As you're to know my days
A season of poison will bring the darkness soon
Painfully, I prepare a release
And poison takes me away
Poison takes me away
On angel's wings, you learn to fly
On angel's wings, you learn to fly
From this world you left below
I'm going to meet you
I've come to take you home
Mommy, mommy, mommy
From this world you left below
I'm going to meet you
I've come to take you home
From this world you left below
I'm going to meet you
I've come to take you home
Painfully, I prepare a release
And poison takes me away
Poison takes me away
On angel's wings, you learn to fly
I'm gonna kiss your face,
and run like thunder.
I'm gonna grab your hair,
and pull you under.
I don't know why sometimes I wonder.
Must be the poison.
Poisoned right out of my head
think I'm gonna poison you instead.
I'm gonna kick you down,
and keep you under.
I'm gonna kiss your face,
and run like thunder.
I'm gonna, kick you down and run like th, th, th, thunder,
stick my big fat foot in your face, and run like,
run like, run like, run like,
poison.

Poison
Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison, I don't want to break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (and pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (deep in)
I want to kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains

Poison, oh no
Running deep inside my veins,
Burning deep inside my veins
It's poison
I don't wanna break these chains
At the out city dancehall the wild ones lead the Friday
night parade. If you’re looking for affection, best be
careful where you lay your name. ‘Cause they’ll pin your
renegade heart to wall and leave you there to hang. Last
night at some Scarborough disco, another empty pocket
took a fall. Wild ones put a kid out of the business, and
they shake it off life shivering dogs. No dog tooth
trigger will poison us. No sinister blade will poison us.
When we dance, the night belongs to us. Who gives a damn
for the blue laws, when the sun come up on an empty lot.
A little more blood in the weekend’s wake. They shake it
(I wanna love you but I, but I better not)
Poison
(I wanna love you but I, but I better not)
Poison
Your cruel device
your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill...
I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Your poison running through my veins
Your poison
I don't wanna play these games
(I wanna love you but I, but I better not)
Poison
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't wanna touch you but you're under my skin
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Your poison running through my veins
Your poison
Your cruel device, your blood like ice
One look could kill my pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much

Your mouth, so hot, your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet, black lace on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't wanna touch you but you're under my skin
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison running through my veins, you're poison
I don't wanna break these chains
Running deep inside my veins
Posion burning deep inside my veins
One look could kill my pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison

…You don’t wanna touch that drug
Sista you don’t wanna touch that drug…
Check it out:
Sista you out here raisin’ our community’s kids
Impartin’ a stronger sense of what “community” is
Teachin’ ‘em how to speak the word and what to do with
these fists
You’re like a young Sojourner – truly through you, she
lives
You do God’s work, and for it you deserve to be praised
‘Cause I know – the sacrifice is hardly worth what it
pays
Nevertheless – on you press to nurture the babes
But take care – overprotectin’ ‘em will hurt ‘em in
ways
You can’t imagine – some call passion a tool
Of Satan – creatin’ bonds with fanatics and fools
And the fear of that is why freedom’s absent in school
And they substitute for gold the platinum rule
It’s on you to provide what they don’t supply to the
mass
Knowledge of the forefathers they won’t find in their
class
And you aint gotta force feed ‘em, but when finally
they ask
Tell ‘em they must shine for they were divine in the
past
Understand – I’ve been ready to commit to your team
With the two forces combined we can uplift a regime
But I am worthless as soon as I am stripped of my miens
And if you see it as the cause for the split between us
then that’s
Poison – I don’t wanna touch this drug
Fuck it – I don’t need the rush that much
Understand I’ll lay it all down straight and walk away
overnight
If it means you and me will unite (X2)
Brother you’re out here speakin from a stump in the
rain
I admire your stamina – it’s like you’re numb to the
pain
Through the mic it’s like you and I are one-in-the-same
We promise hope, though most say we’re just mumblin’
slang
But the change’ll come – we know from readin’ the text
And when I tend stop short, yo you keep me abreast
You were born to be a leader of the elite’s best
But my concern’s for the rest of the people that’s left
See I was baptized once as a child in the church
And as a man now, overstand the lies in their works
They’re tryin’ hard to save souls sellin’ violence and
hurt
But mine was free from the beginning to fly since birth
Now I wanna help another cat to feel like that
Mixin’ metaphysical concepts with real-life facts
To equip the front lines in the field where pipes crack
With rhyme, to the reason they’re choosin’ to fight
back
Understand that you and I both serve the same cause
For peace – whether we’re reachin’ it through words or
wars
Sometimes our backgrounds help determine our course
But when the weight starts to separate and burden us,
Lord, that’s
Poison – I don’t wanna touch this drug
Fuck it – I don’t need the rush that much
Understand I’ll lay it all down straight and walk away
overnight
Just the memory of you
It feels like poison
Still the memory of you
It feels like poison
It kills like poison
Why you do the things you do?
It feels like poison
I can only love you
It feels like poison
If not for you
No love in front of me
Nobody told you
It's not how it's supposed to be
Make a wish and blow it out
Love will begin again
I don't want to be a clown
The whole town is laughing
Behind my back, you're supposed to be a friend
If not for you
No love in front of me
Nobody told you
It's not how it's supposed to be
It’s not how it’s supposed to be
It’s not how it’s supposed to be
It’s not how it’s supposed to be
It’s not how it’s supposed to be
It feels like poison
Why you do the things you do?
It feels like poison
Why you do the things you do?
It feels like poison
Why you do the things you do?
You better stop better run away
You better listen to what I have to say
I'll keep you hanging on the line
With just one kiss I will blow your mind
Your desperation makes you feel insane
Fever running high you will never be the same
Don't you treat me bad
Don't you make me sad
Our love could be deep as the ocean
If you can't be true
I've got news for you
Just remember I can be poison
Some people say that I'm hard to tame
They know that trouble is my middle name
To dangerous what you want from me
This chemistry in my body
I've got you scared and now your running blind
Don't make me mad
Cause you know I won't be kind, oh so kind
Don't give empty reasons baby
Cause I don't want your lies
Here comes the minister,
His three-piece seems sinister,
And I'm just a visitor,
But I still know when I see a prisoner,
I thought we all knew a tree and its fruit,
Are only just as good as the soil nourishing that root,
And here comes the senator,
And his high-class, bitch-ass lobbyist investors,
I'm just the messenger,
Oh, but I still know when I see a prisoner, yeah,
I thought we all knew a tree and its fruit,
Are only just as good as the soil nourishing that root,
I thought it was obvious when you worship the fund,
The root of your evil is what your heart becomes,
The fruit that you bear may be beautiful to some,
But it's poison, it's poison, it's poison,
It's poison,
Here comes the singer and his self-righteous demeanor,
But look at these clothes--it shows,
Everybody knows I am just a prisoner,
I thought we all knew a tree and its fruit,
Are only just as good as the soil nourishing that root,
I thought it was obvious when you worship the fund,
The root of your evil is what your heart becomes,
The fruit that you bear may be beautiful to some,
But it's poison, it's poison, it's poison,
Poison
Gonna take a long time to get over you
Loves poison addiction offers me no rescue
Gonna be a hard road back to where I started from
Cause you touched the deepest part of me and filled me
With your song
And I sang along
I believe in you and what you gotta do
But what youre goin through is poison,
Poision to the two of us
Used to stand so tall
Til I took the fall, greatest fall of all
Was when I fell for you
Our cloudy skies held lonely forms
Your anger familiar thick as air before a storm
Now lookin back I know the truth was plain to see
I built my world around you cause I
I needed to believe
And I still believe
Time & time again we tried so hard to win
But the pleasures of a foolish paradise
Charlie was a fiddle player, the best there was around
He and his fiancé were at the picnic grounds
Charlie and his band would play the dance that summer night
But deep inside his heart he felt that somethin' wasn't right
His sister said you'd better keep an eye upon your girl
Rumor has it she's been givin' someone else a whirl
So Charlie had decided to spy on his bride-to-be
But never was he prepared to see what he would see
CHORUS:
Her love was poison
Her love was poison
She ran around with other boys 'n'
Her love was poison
He spotted her behind the barn in another's hands
The man he saw was Earl who played guitar in Charlie's band
Blood red sunset fell upon the couple's dark embrace
And cast a long and desperate shadow over Charlie's face
CHORUS
When that night he took the stage, sadness mixed with jealous rage
Charlie gazed upon the crowd, then raised his voice clear and loud
"What I've feared has come to pass" in his hand a poisoned glass
He swallowed that lye beneath the moon and said I'm playin' my farewell tune
As the last note died away, that fiddler did the same
They laid him in an old pine box, with nails they sealed his fame
Summer sun and poison soon made his body swell
The casket nearly burst apart and put forth quite a smell
Green flies swarmed around and followed Charlie all the way
To the little meadow where forever he would lay
And dream of fiddles, fiancés, and that fateful night
When Charlie played his farewell tune beneath the pale moonlight
Your cruel device
your blood like ice
one look could kill
my pain, your thrill
Your mouth so hot
your web, I'm caught
your skin, so wet
black lace, on sweat
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
I wanna love you, but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you, but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison.
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
You're poison...
you better stop better run away
better listen what i have to say
i'll keep u hangin on the line
with just one kiss i will blow your mind
now desperation makes you feel insane
Fever runnin' high u will never be the same
don't u treat me bad don't u make me sad
our love could be deep as the ocean
if u can't be true i got news for you
just remember that i can be poison..........poison
Some people say that i'm hard to tame
they know that trouble is my middle name
Too dangerous what u want from me
this chemistry in my body
i've got u scared and now your running blind
don't make mad cuz u know i won't be kind
I know if you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, it's yours.
Chances are it wont come back to you. And if it does, do yourself a favor and
let it go yourself
Poison that's what you are to me
Yea I said poison
This prison is a blessing I don't wanna be free
Why sould I have to pay
'cause you don't like the way I am today
(Prozak)
I know it's fucked up how I treat ya tellin your mom I used to beat ya
Mistreat ya and how I used to leave ya
Alone home by the phone crying in pain
Stuttering and flinching every time you have to speak my name
Pamphlets about domestic violence
And how you lived this life of pain and misery and anguish and silence
It seems I can't explain my actions and in my absence
You have to see your family's horrified reactions
'cause uh I know they'd lock me up if they could
Makin excuses for me like a trooper girl just like you should
Shattered dreams and expectations
Starin out the window with teary eyes a broken will and lacerations
Poison that's what you are to me
Yea I said poison
This prison is a blessing I don't wanna be free
Why sould I have to pay
'cause you don't like the way I am today
(Prozak)
When we first got together you said that you respected me
Known about my fucked up childhood but you still accepted me
We took it to that level but sometimes I swear it's like I'm obsessed with the
devil
And these differences that cannot be settled
Everytime we fuck it's out of spite and hatred
Lookin at me like you wish you could kill me that bond is sacred
See I was fucked from the get go raised like a pit bull
Mental abuse pain and anguish things I can't let go
All I can do in this life is bring you down
Things were much better for you until the day I came around
Fuck it I can't take this pain no more
Poison
Yeah spot a man of freedom for a fact aah-aah uh-hum
Poison you ready Ron I'm ready
You ready Dave I'm ready Slick are you
Oh yeah break it down
Girl I must warn you
I sense something strange in my mind
Yeah yo situation is serious
Let's cure it 'cause we're running out of time
Mm mm tell 'em Rick it's all so beautiful
Relationships they seem from the start
Yeah mm mm it's all so deadly
When love is not together from the heart
Mm mm check it out
It's driving me out of my mind
That's why it's hard for me to find
Can't get it outta my head
Miss her, kiss her, love her, wrong move you're dead
That girl is poison
Never trust a big butt and smile
That girl is poison poison
If I were you I'd take precaution
Before I start to leave fly girl
You know 'cause in some portions
You'll think she's the best thing in the world
She's so fly, she'll drive you right out of your mind
Steal your heart when you're blind
Beware she's schemin', she'll make you think you're dreamin'
You'll fall in love and you'll be screamin' dreamin'
Poison deadly moving it slow
Looking for a mellow fellow like DeVoe
Getting paid laid so better lay low
Schemin' on hots my end the pro show
The low pro hot should be cut like an afro
See what you're sayin' huh
She's weighin' but I know she's a loser
How do you know me and the crew used to do her
Poison (x20)
I was at the bar shake shakin' takin' 'em off
And that night I played the wall
Checkin' out the fellas the highs the lows
Keepin' one eye open still clockin' 'em
Still one particular girl that stood out from the rest
Poison as can be how how is she
Michael me and see and I'm runnin' the show
Bell Biv DeVoe ha-ha ha-ha
Now you know you're Slick blow
It's driving me out of my mind
That's why it's hard for me to find
Can't get it outta my head
Miss her, kiss her, love her, wrong move you're dead
That girl is poison (Poison poison)
Never trust a big butt and smile
Poison (Poison poison)
She's dangerous
Poison
Oh yeah (poison) oh yeah
(Poison poison)
Hear fellas you hear what I'm saying Mike
Yeah baby dance for a fact
What's happened to Ral-T and Johnny G and Bobby Brown
You know who we mean crew
(Poison)
ah-ha ah-ha ah-ha
Your cruel device
Your blood like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
(Don't touch)
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
(Too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison
Running through my veins
You're poison
I don't wanna break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins
(And pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screamin' my name
Don't wanna touch you but you're under my skin
(Deep in)
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison
Running through my veins
You're poison
I don't wanna break these chains
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I wanna love you but I better not touch
(Don't touch)
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
(Too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison
Running through my veins
You're poison
I don't wanna break these chains
I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison
Running through my veins
You're poison
Late morning in my bed,
Just remembered what they said
That I should be more confident
And I'll soon have some compliment
I just don't believe in them
Maybe that could be a problem
Cause I'm alowed to think on my own
About the bullshits they have shown
Hey, you're down
What's that poison in your mind?
Hey, you're down
What's that poison in your mind?
Late evening in a bar
All the people who wanna be a star
I told them to be confident
And they'll soon have some compliment
But I just don't believe in that
Maybe that could be a sad fact
Cause I'm allowed to be on my own
And forget jerk, twat and assholes
Hey, you're down
What's that poison in your mind?
Hey, you're down
What's that poison in your mind?
Hey, you're down
What's that poison in your mind?
Hey, you're down
Your heart's as black as poison
Cold as ice through and through
You say you wouldn't hurt me
Not what you say it's what you do
Where is my yesterday
It's clearer than tomorrow
Now I incinerate
The vision that you borrowed
Poisoning my mind
Take my soul leave the shell behind
Keep pushing the line
Take me out leave me without your poison
Your heart's as black as poison
Cold as ice through and through
You say you wouldn't hurt me
Now my mind is frozen too
Your world is made of glass
Message in a bottle
If you'd thrown out your trash
Might have made a martyr
Chorus
Keep pushing me down
Keep pushing me I don't care (x6)
Kool G Rap and Polo
Back again
What?
This is poison so be alert and cautious
Those who act courageous you will get nauseous
Infected or contaminated
Turn on your stereo never come radio-activated
Deadly and fatal, poison the title
My recital hits the parts that are vital
So tune in the tone of beats and poems
Polo's headphones becomes a skull and crossbones
Pull out your Q-tips, clean out the earwax
If you're still hard of hearing, I'mma scrub them with Ajax
With maximum drum so behave and remember
You're a slave to my sound wave
Faster rhymes I mastermind I have to find
A new method time after time
Write a rhyme quick when I pull out my Bic pen
Stick to an idea, the soundproof slick then
Put it on paper cause I make you hyper
Than any other rapper cause I keep my rapping riper
Like cherries or some say berries
Mandatory for the auditory and its glory
Here's the story: rappers getting leery to hear me
G speaks in a new technique of fury
Domination of drums and noise and
Yo yo yo Polo yo this is poison
Poison! (x3)
Look-alikes on the mic you should get off
You're a rip-off, I'mma rip up, get rid of, cause you bit off
Bite off ate off imitate off
They get paid off for G Rap to get laid off
Get up and sit up the butterer and buttercup
Male or female shut them up, Po shut her up
Shut the hell up, man>
Yeah hide my line as you pick them up
Rob me blind of my rhymes you might as well have said stick them up
Letters of metaphor matters to better the fatter your pocket
Rhymes blast off like rockets
Rhymes will be replaced and beats erased
In case a rapper tries to trace hardcore bass
Made in a minute the sky is the limit
For reaching the goal and the dream wouldn't you want to be in it to win
it?
Biters are wanted like animals hunted
Soon as I get them I hit them I done it to the suckers who fronted
The rappers who made it and did it
Forget about winning the battle cause I'mma shake rattle and roll
A little something for girls and boys and
Yo yo Polo my man yo this is poison
Read the label sucker
P-O-I-S-O-N
Yeah poison
Poison! (x3)
Check it out>
A mind designed to find a rhyme that's right on time
One step beyond and not behind the line
That separates dogs from divine
Take it as a caution, or a warning sign
Whether antonyms, words I'm blending them
Homonyms, synonyms, good like M&M;'s
With Polo and while he's slicing
I'll turn the mike's last name into Tyson
My brain is like a factory constantly creating
Material stitch by stitch for decoration
Lyrics are fabrics, beat is the lining
My passion in rhyming is fashion designing
Now it gets odd it, cause people want to sport it
You bought it, if you didn't then you couldn't afford it
Poetry full of surprises, it's like a game show
And my brain glows just like a rainbow
Rappers and poets they already know it
G Rap is a terror not a error and never will I stop reaching for better
Whether wheels of steel or reel to reel
G Rap will make you feel the real deal
I usually rap hardcore and I know
That y'all thinking am I somehow semi, so
We yell ";party"; and girls and boys and
Remember Kool G Rap, Doc the Butcher and Polo is poison
Poison! (x3)
Yeah, yo Marley turn down the music for a minute
I want to say what's up to my crew
Biz Markie, DJ Cool V, TJ Swan, Big Daddy Kane,
Mister Cee, Roxanne Shant? MC Shan,
My manager Fly Ty, Mr. Magic, my DJ Polo,
Doc the Butcher, my man Shannon, and my man Marley Marl
Word cause we all poison, knowwhati'msaying?
Polo: word up G Rap
They gonna bite this just like they bit ";It's a Demo,"; man
Well that's all right
Let's see how many rap sap suckers rush to bite this
Polo: word up you know who we talking about
You big fat sap sucker>
Disc go down late last night
Spinnin' room don't feel right
Spirits they all laugh at me
'Cause of my stupidity
Cold sweat on my brow
Feel it comin' up right now
Alaman-left to the powder room
Steppin' in time to a banjo tune
Poison, get thee out of me
Poison, get thee out of me
I can't focus, I can't see
TV don't make sense to me
Bubblin' crude comin' up fast
I swore that drink would be my last
Oh, my goodness, oh, my dear
Banjo pickin's all I hear
Spinnin' worlds gotta give
For tomorrow can't forgive
Poison, get thee out of me
Poison, get thee out of me
Disc go down late last night
Spinnin' room don't feel right
Spirits they all laugh at me
'Cause of my stupidity
Oh, my goodness, oh, my dear

Cold sweat on my brow
Feel it comin' up right now
Poison, get thee out of me
Poison, get thee out of me
Poison, get thee out of me

I need your kiss - think I need it too much

I need to hold you - think I need it too much
I need to love you - think I better don't touch
It's like poison
I'm caught in your web
Deep under my skin you make me sweat
You're like poison

But I can't help, I want your love
You - You're such a cruel device
You've got a heart like ice
I can't get over you - no, no, no, no, no, no ,no
Each time - Each time you call my name
It helps to ease the pain
Coz' I'm still caught in you - (I'm still caught in you)
But I better don't touch
It's like poison
I'm caught in your web
Deep under my skin you make me sweat
You're like poison
my senses say stop
But I can't help, I want your love
It's like poison
I've gone too far
Deep under my skin - is where you are
You're like poison
Don't know what to do
Can't break the chains - still wanting you
Yeah spot a man of freedom for a fact aah-aah uh-hum
Poison you ready Ron I'm ready

The one you were warned about
Oh yes, indeed
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Chorus:
Number one bad boy
who's to blame
Number one bad boy
Ain't that a shame
Yeah, right
All my friends are two faced
And I'm a social disgrace
I got no morals
Don't belong in the rat race
Well, I'm no upstanding citizen
but I'm standing up just the same
Into a lonely world
Where I'm lost without a trace
Two faced
rat race
disgrace
Will I stand up on my own?
