Sweet!
And still there's pain
If I would have grew up to be a doctor, my nephew would have grew up to do the same
But since I grew up through the game, and my influence is the same
And my therapy is music, they ask if you ashamed
And though I wish I could separate, two things,
I cannot, so my answer to you remains
I can walk down the hall or mirrors, in Versailles
And be so satisfied when I look a myself in the eyes
No shame, no sir, just big boats and tearing the coast up
Tight coup like I'm wearing the roadster,
For any coup I'm bear hugging the holster.
Hov, alright, alright
And that may not be
What you call perfect
But, but it's my life
The life, the life, the life
Once again it's the life
So I make no apologies
Crooked policies
So a G a nigga gotta be
We playing for property, no monopoly
So I'll pass go and let my nephew follow me
They say the child shall lead,
So I take it far as I can, and then we shall see
Shall we dance with the devil, for a beat
I pray to God I ain't got two left feet
Do the hustle, put keys in the street
Then I'm ballroom dancing, ke-ke'ing in the suite
Sweet.
BB's on the feet, TV's in the seat
Enemies on the creep
It's so corrupt
Soak it up
It's a lesson, never fuck up
One day you're up, next day you're down
Long as you stay the same, it will come back around
I'm even better, I'm eating better
Best thing about it is, my niggas eating together
With each endeavor
We reaching levels, niggas ain't seen in like forever
I'm hyman roth I make all my partners rich
I can vouch for you, if you ain't a part of this
So pardon me as I pave my wrist
As I parlay my chips, Hov!
Alright, alright, American Gangster, ganster, business like I'm white
But I'm not, I'm just bright
So fly with no fear of the flight
So if y'all hear my plight
And if you think you can make it this far without a fight
Couple mistakes here and there, not always right
Try to swim, keep your head up
Kick your legs, never give up, boy
And if I could I'd turn it around
Let me out
I wanna get out now
You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out the taste so sweet
Sweet
Sweet
I'm too high, wanna come down
And I'm too old to wanna be younger now
But if I could I'd turn it around
Let me out
I wanna get out now
You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out, the taste so sweet
Sweet
Sweet
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
Cover me cover me cover me
til I'm gone
gone
Well if I could I'd turn it around
yeah…
You know the feeling when you're in too deep
And then you make it out
She came through the front door lookin' fast as a big train
Bookin' down the line
And she was lookin' fine
Long and lean and dressed to kill
Stacked up high with perfect wheels
and there ain't no chance, that girl would ever dance with me
She got all those city boys pushin' and shovin'
A counrty boy like me don't ever get no uptown lovin'
She's Sweet, she's got 'em melting in her hand
Whoever gets a taste of that cup of sugar
Sure is a lucky man
She's sweet, tellin you boys
She's babelicious, I can't reach that Georgia peach
But she sure looks delicious
I had nothing else to do
So I threw down two more shots of booze
And it made me strong
I strapped my courage on
I said 'would you like a drink?
'By chance, no what I mean is would you like to dance with me?
Please.' in my best southern ease
It got hot on the dance floor when she whispered in my ear
'I think I found my county boy, let's get out of here.'
I said 'sweet'.
I'm melting in her hand
I feel like a spoon in a cup of blonde sugar
Y'all looking at the lucky man
I said 'sweet'
mmm boys she's babelicious
That Georgia peach is now in my reach
And don't she look delicious?
Look here now, she's sweet
I'm melting in her hand
I feel like a spoon in a cup of blonde sugar
Y'all looing at the lucky man
She's sweet, mmm boys she's babelicious
That Georgia peach is now in my reach
And don't she look delicious?
Take a chance n something star you gotta
All the live long day
If i had to name one thing would data
Be hard pressed to say
You can say that i'm gushy
At least you know what i think
I know that i'm lucky i know you're on the brink
You got it good good good you got it good so good
You make up ridiculous words
Which mean exactly nothing
I know just what you mean and that's the funny thing
It's understood it's understood
Buddy buddy buddy i know why you wander
Through the sweetness on the ground
The sweetness of the flowers
You make your way on a cloudy day
You've got to move
The world you prove is too sweet yeah
We parted much too soon i know but that's how it goes
There's someone better out there for you and me
Can't wait to get on the road and feel the shows And be like phenomenon 1 and 2 and 3
I don't mean to brag and i don't mean to boast
But i'm the guy could that give you the most
It's good good good it's understood
CHORUS
Back as far as I remember
Mama always worried about me
Ya see Mama knew my taste in women
She'd say whatever you do, boy find you one that's sweet
Mama I finally found ony that I'd like you to meet
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see she's sweet
No Mama she ain't into ironing
And she ain't one to scrub the house and clean
No Mama she couldn't boil a pot of water
So she won't need none of Grandma's recipes
But Mama don't you worry none
She's taking real good care of me
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see she's sweet
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places

Before now

Get it!, get it!, git, git, get it, get it, get it!!
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? I’m livin’ sweet!
Ask me if it’s candy paint? I’m ridin’ sweet!
Ask me what I’m hittin’ mein? Some swisha sweets!
Cous I could give a wha, but I just don’t give a sheet!
Sweeter than some sugar cane. Sweeter than some chocolate.
Women love to rock it. For me they’re outta pocket.
Yep! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet!
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? Mein, I’m livin’ sweet!
Clean like some contraband straight from Bolivia
I can see my shit’s strong by the way you’re spittin’ up
Trippin’ up, trippin’ out, flippin’ birds, flippin’ out
Twistin’ herb, twistin’ mugs, sippin’ syrup, trickin’ out
Girl’s ridin’ shotgun, ridin’ like a top gun
Slidin’ out the spot son near killers on the block son
Fire off a hot one – don’t wanna get got son
I stay outta danger so just keep me out your plot son
…You be squawkin’ - but I’ll be off pimpin’
Leave my mark on y’all like my signature and imprint
Instant-ly, I bag it like some jewelry
And I spread the wealth – like L.L. it’s just the cool in me
How I’m in the buildin’ if the V’s the buildin’?
How I’m livin’ so sweet, if I make a killin’?
Fin to get busy - your girl’s in a tizzy
Now she’s got the V tatted right between her titties
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? I’m livin’ sweet!
Ask me if it’s candy paint? I’m ridin’ sweet!
Ask me what I’m hittin’ mein? Some swisha sweets!
Cous I could give a wha, but I just don’t give a sheet!

Who-A? True-A! What you wanna do naw?
You ain’t got no work, mein, my shit be the purest
Sure of myself even when I roll solo
Yeah, it got mo’ mojo than Austin’ Power promos
Switches be tweaked - speak swifter with a lispa
I got mo’ money than what’s spent upon your wrista
I got diamond blindin’ vision stunna shades on
Bamboo dinnertable that I throw my cake on
Thangs are lookin’ lovely even when you’re muggin’
Dude you need to stay out the eye of the public
Take it from a real dude – life is just a crap shoot
Either ride or die or get processed like some cat food
Thought I saw a pussycat – now she’s purrin’ in my lap
Big barkin’ dawg – my colla makes them women holla
Yup, Yup – Imma breed of a different kind
Top notch pedigree – my doggy style is dynamite
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? I’m livin’ sweet!
Ask me if it’s candy paint? I’m ridin’ sweet!
Ask me what I’m hittin’ mein? Some swisha sweets!
Cous I could give a wha, but I just don’t give a sheet!

Women love to rock it. For me they’re outta pocket.
Yep! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet!
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? Mein, I’m livin’ sweet!
I’m takin’ days off so I’m headin’ for the beach
Take it from me, the good life’s never out of reach
Breach of contract if you implicate the V
Don’t worry ‘bout me, I’m just chillin’ like a villain
And I’m never trippin’ unless it’s to overseas
Cuz I get the crowd hyped from here to Beverly
Hills – pay the bills – I got skills to keep you thrilled
When my album drops is When the Earth Stood Still
Like Keanu Reeves, have you caught up in the Matrix
Here’s a little taste to keep all you ladies cravin’
So I scoop ‘em up and head back to the Vill
Cuz if V don’t do it then another brother will
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? I’m livin’ sweet!
Ask me if it’s candy paint? I’m ridin’ sweet!
Ask me what I’m hittin’ mein? Some swisha sweets!
Cous I could give a wha, but I just don’t give a sheet!
Sweeter than some sugar cane. Sweeter than some chocolate.
Women love to rock it. For me they’re outta pocket.
Yep! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet! Sweet!
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? Mein, I’m livin’ sweet!
Flossin’. Bossin’. Tossin’ up the cheddar
Dippin’. Rippin’. Whippin’ down the street!
Life is too short so for now we’re livin’ better!
Life is too short so for now we’re livin’ Sweet!
Sweet!
Sweet!
Did I tell you she's not good for you
Did I mention she's not free
Can I tell you can I show you
I've been waiting on my knees
I will be your movie star
I will be your movie queen
I will touch you in the dark
When you're alone and bittersweet
I've seen the ring on her finger
I've seen the fire in her eyes
I know that smoke always lingers
In disguise
So I see we've got a problem
Back by popular demand
I call you call her but the line is busy
Smiling eyes in a sea of faces
Stealing time for secret places
Making love in the afternoon
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Today
Rolling Stones should rock together
Like the storm cloud crystal weather
Silver sun when the day is done
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Today
This is the next stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Her face was turnin' red
And everybody's talkin' 'bout
The way that she's preferred
Was it six or seventeen?
And old enough to know about
The things that should be clean
And where she should have been
The things that I do at midnight
You ain't gonna say at daylight
I looked into a ring
A voice from way inside said
"Oh you pretty thing"
My head was in a state
And every time you came with me
You said that you were late
I should have had you mate
The things that I do at midnight
You ain't gonna say at daylight
The things that I do at midnight
Take a black cat I think of what you'll had
Here's a wildcat
Take a white mouse hiding in a house
Here's a colored love
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Hey, hey, hey, just remember it's the way
Day or nighttime you can really shine
With your groupie clothes
If the inside is on the outside
Everybody knows
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Hey, hey, hey, just remember it's the way
Take a black cat I think of what you'll had
Here's a wildcat
Take a white mouse hiding in a house
Here's a colored love
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
And the lady is my lady starlight
Sing, the song should be sung
And love can be the voice
The tears in my eyes, I'm crying tears of joy
When you say I'm your boy
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
And the lady is my lady starlight
Time slips right on away
But why should I care what people say
I will watch over lady starlight
Looking for starlight
Dance, she dances a ballet
And Rudi is the king
I laugh when she's happy
The power's in my hands
And I must be a man
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
Hey mama, I?ve been looking for you
I wanna show you what my heart can do
Hey mama, if you think it?s wrong
I don?t know where you coming from
I want a woman who can take it, every way
I need a girl who gonna shake it, every day
Give me a lover who can make it, when ever I say
You, pretty baby, it's you
You, pretty baby, I need a lover like you
Oh, won?t you love me, come on and love me
It?s so hard, I don?t know what to do
So get ready, you gotta be ready
Can?t you see what?s coming over you?
I wanna taste of your loving cup
I hear that coke is gonna keep it up
I?ll keep on going till I?m over the top
I never, never, never gonna stop
I want a woman who can take it, every way
I need a girl who gonna shake it, every day
Give me a lover who can make it when ever I say
You, pretty baby, it's you
You, pretty baby, I need you
Oh, won?t you love me, yeah, come on and love me
It?s so hard, I don?t know what to do
So get ready, you gotta be ready
Can?t you see what?s coming over you?
You got me shakin' and I can?t keep still
I wanna do it till I get my fill
My body's aching and I?m ready to drop
I'm never, never, never gonna stop
I want a woman who can take it, every way
I need a girl who gonna shake it, every day
Give me a lover who can make it when ever I say
You, pretty baby, it's you
You, pretty baby
I want a woman who can take it
A girl, come on and shake it on, my girl
Shake it, shake it, shake it
I need you to shake it on me, girl
Can you shake it
Come on and shake it, shake it
If I could make a wish
I'd throw a coin in the fountain
But fantasies don't always come true
And if I had no dreams
I'd never climb the mountain
The hand of fate will always be reachin' out for you
Like gold your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
Colors of love in the sky
I've been sayin' all my life
I don't believe in magic
But fountain of faith, I'm puttin' my trust in you
Circles on the water
From the coin that's sinkin' slowly down
My future's reflecting my destiny's callin' out to you
Like gold your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
Colors of love in the sky
Well how much time do you need?
The fountain holds the key
To unlock the love deep in your heart
I have kissed the water's lips
And now we're floating free
With no love before this new life can start again
Like gold, your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
You crawled into my bed like a cockroach
The things you said
Made me lose my head like a waterfall
You've got a mouth like a DC ten but I love you
You've got me in your arms
And your special charms, my
You, you got my head in circles
Ooh, loved you
And I don't want nobody but you
You fucking laugh at my inhibition
You made a fuss 'bout my Oedipus
From my mother's side
You feel away like a Sherman Tank but I love you
You're gonna take me there
I don't really care, my
You got my head in circles
Ooh, loved you
And I don't want nobody but you
Turn you run to me you bring your Mama
The way she freaks gives me the creeps
She's a mainline ma'am
You've got to know
What you're doin' to your Daddy
'Cos I love you
You've got me in your arms
Ooh, your precious charms
You, you got my head in circles
The New York girls, they've gone down to California
Don't say, they didn't warn ya
'Bout spendin' time in Miami FLA
That ain't no place to be anyway
Ooh, looking for someone in their life
Waiting for love to shine it's light
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights
California never go away, I'm here to stay
Those Vegas chicks have gone and thrown it all away
They're gonna settle down in L.A.
They've heard the stories of Hollywood and stars
Sunset Boulevard and custom cars
From Roulette to room let, changing signs
Ceasers to Rainbow, life unwinds
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights
California never go away, I'm here to stay
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights

Uh, uh, uh
Let me tell you ?bout my girl
Guaranteed to make your hair curl
Doing things that only she can do
Uh, uh, uh
She made the world a stage
Taking care of public image
She?s looking good, but then she always does
Here's what she wants to do at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
Uh, uh, uh
Money's everything to her
Gonna get her diamond and furs
But there's one thing money just can't buy

Love waits for the witchin' hour
Sell your soul for the taste of power
Still I love you but then I always will
Here's what I wanna do at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
When daylight comes to you
You hide from the world outside

Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Hiawatha didn't bother too much
'Bout Minnie Ha-Ha and her tender touch
Till she took him to the silver stream
Then she whispered words like he had never heard
That made him all shudder inside when she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little wig-wam bam
Running Bear never cared enough
About Little White Dove and her tender love
Till she took him to the silver stream
She told him all about what he couldn't live without
And made him all weak inside when she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little Wig-wam bam
Wig-wam bam sham-a-lam
Wam bam bam sham-a-lam
Wig-wam bam sham-a-lam
Wam bam bam sham-a-lam
Hiawatha didn't bother too much
About Minnie Ha-Ha and her tender touch
Till she took him to the silver stream
Then she whispered words like he'd never heard
That made him all shudder inside when she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little wig-wam bam, and she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little wig-wam bam
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
I've always been a bit strange
Which one of me is gonna change?
Wish there were eight days a week
Hardly got the time to speak
To anyone, except myself
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
We'll get myself together
One of us must join the other
Nothing's guaranteed to last
Life is just a plastic glass, hello
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
I've always been a bit strange
Two into one won't
Which one of me is gonna change?
It won't go
We are just a schizoid man
Help each other best we can
Together, but is it possible?
You know, you know
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
I am sitting
In the morning
At the diner
On the corner
I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To pour the coffee
And he fills it
Only halfway
And before
I even argue
He is looking
Out the window
At somebody
Coming in
"It is always
Nice to see you"
Says the man
Behind the counter
To the woman
Who has come in
She is shaking
Her umbrella
And I look
The other way
As they are kissing
Their hellos
I'm pretending
Not to see them
Instead
I pour the milk
I open
Up the paper
There's a story
Of an actor
Who had died
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of
And I'm turning
To the horoscope
And looking
For the funnies
When I'm feeling
Someone watching me
And so
I raise my head
There's a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?
No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection
And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's hitching
Up her skirt
And while she's
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Is getting wet
Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm listening
To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...
And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...
I finish up my coffee
Where were you in sixty-eight
In sixty-eight, Julie was Johnnie's date
Two kids growin' together
Livin' each day as if time was slippin' away
Oh, they were just sixteen and their love, a teenage dream
They passed the time, they crossed the line
The line that ran between
Julie and Johnnie, now you've made it
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
Suzie and Davey got to make the big time
Maybe they can put it all together
In a show that lasts forever
Oh, they would walk the strip at nights
And dream they saw their name in lights
On Desolation Boulevard, they'll light the faded light
Suzie and Davey, you can make it
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
So where were you in sixty-eight
When Bobby and Billy thought that sixty eight was out of date?
They took the flowers from their hair
And tried to make us all aware, too bad, too late
So they lived from day to day
And tried to do it all their way
But sixty-eight was sixty-eight
No matter what they say
Bobby and Billy, maybe you'll make it one day
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You go to the girl's school
And I go to the boy's school
Both separated by a lollipop man
I must cross the street to
Get around to meet you
Therefore I have to pass a lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street
(Ain't he sweet?)
There's a lollipop man, yeah, a lollipop man
Hey, good golly, there's a lollipop man
Who carries out his duty
Isn't he a cutie?
There in the middle with his lollipop pole
Opposite the high school
Right in front of my school
He's so incredible, he's really got soul
He won't let the traffic come between us
(Lollipop man, lollipop man)
We can be together very soon
(Lollipop man, lollipop man)
But he will make the traffic stop
With his giant lollipop
Looking just a little like a moon man
In a yellow rain coat
And a pair of gum boots
There in the midst of an incredible jam
Any kind of weather
Bringing us together
There stands a funny little lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street

Losing the day, finding her way to me, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Sunny stays up every night
Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Aha, aha, aha
She whispers a word of warning
To beware of the light of morning
By losing their glow the stars tell her go away, away
But still she can see the moon
Though she knows she'll be leaving soon
Going away to hide from the day once more, aha

Heart of a woman but she's a child
Something inside that's gonna drive you wild
You, you go take a walk, I don't need that kind of talk
'Cause I'm a man not a mother
Solid gold brass got a mean streak
And it's running through my veins

Solid gold brass got a mean streak

And it's going to my brain
Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me
Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me
Ooh, I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world that's
A distorted reality
Happiness you took from me
And left me alone with only memories
Through the mirror of my mind
Through the tears that I'm cryin'
Reflects the hurt I can't control
'Cause although you've gone
I keep holding on
To the happy time
Uh, when you were mine
As I peer through the window of lost time
Looking over my yesterdays
And all the love I gave all in vain
(All the love)
All the love that I've wasted
(All the tears)
All the tears that I've tasted
(All in me)
All in me
Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream that's lost
From the hurt that you have caused
Everywhere I turn
Seems like everything I see
Reflects the love that used to be
In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust
After all these nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful of promises
All of that?s left of loving you
Reflections of
The way life used to be
Ooh, reflections of
The love you took from me
In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust
Ooh, reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
Inside out gonna burn tonight
'Cause the heat is on and the time is right
Who is the face that's gonna set the pace?
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller, I'm in outer space
Come on, come on, well you come on strong
With my knees all weak from your lightning streak
Like a thunder flash, supersonic crash
He appears, you'll freeze knock your head over heels

And his sky high lies infrared disguise
Who is the guy who's gonna catch your eye?
I'm a supersonic razor lasered from the sky
Look out, look out, when the rebel's out
He can chill your veins, explode your brain
He was born to rule, baby, he's no fool
He was heaven sent, but his soul's hell bent

My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
(solo)
Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the door again
Well, if you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before

Love is like oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Time on my side
I got it all
I've heard that pride
Always comes before a fall
There's a rumour goin' round the town
That you don't want me around
I can't shake off my city blues
Every way I turn I lose
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Time is no healer
If you're not there
Lonely fever
Sad words in the air
Some things are better left unsaid
I'm gonna spend my days in bed
I'll walk the streets at night
To be hidden by the city lights
City lights
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Love is like oxygen
Infinity like time without a friend
Who'll sing the song if melody should end
You're dead my friend.
Lost angel come and take control
Lost angel gotta keep on
Hold on
hold on
hold on.
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'm dead on my Feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels
Listen to the way to rock'n'roll.
Insanity
I can feel the knives inside my brain
I stand alone at the threshold of my pain.
Lost angel come and take control
. . .
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'm dead on my feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels.
How I see it now all my friends inside my life
Appeared before my eyes
And returning to space to see myself disappear
Lost angel come and take control
. . .
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'hn dead on my feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels.

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
'Cos with little Willy
Round they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cos 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 run-around style
Inside, outside
Willy sends them silly
With his star-shine
Shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase
Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cos 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

Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Everybody loves a star, makes no difference who you are
It's a good game when you're winning
They don't see you in the rain, when your crisis are pain
Do I find a new beginning?
No time to lose
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
You loved the fame and all it brings, but it's just roundabouts in swings
You never know which way you're goin'
You can always fall from grace, even though you're hot
The race is never won untill it's over
Out in the cold
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Crisis
My identity crisis, my identity crisis
There are bridges to be crossed, got no time to count the cost
When the interest's gettin' higher
Money helps to pass the time, but it won't buy peace of mind
So much more to light the fire
Burning inside
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
I wanna be committed
I wanna be committed
I thought I was a space-age cowboy
I thought I was a sweet and sour chow-boy
I thought I was a thinker
A juvenile drinker
I thought I had some kind of a brain
'Til they told me I was just a rumor
A cheap and nasty looner
Well, it turned out I was just insane
I wanna be committed, insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed, don't let me be remitted
I wanna be committed if you don't mind
Well, at the dance last Saturday night
He was a rockin' and a rollin'
And holding her tight
'Till he got his hands on her
But when he started out to play
She kept pushing him away and he got a funny feeling
He was walking on the ceiling
And someone was heard to say, "If you don't mind, Sir"
I don't mind"
I thought I was a teenage dream-boy
With a brain made of solid plastic alloy
I thought I was a tripper, there ain't nobody hipper
But it turned out I was going down the drain
I wanna be committed, insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed, don't let me be remitted
I wanna be committed if you don't mind
I wanna be committed
Insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed
I wanna be committed
I?ve been much too long in this old casino
Run out of money and luck
I gotta find a way to that lucky number
Say, buddy, can you give me a buck

And they all turned out to be you

You made the ace of hearts my friend
Now I know I?ll never be on my own
I live for tomorrow, 'cause yesterday's gone

Tell me is it really true
This feelin' that I feel for you
Your own kind of lovin'
That makes me think
Nothing could ever take the place of you
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
Ever since you came my way
I knew it was my lucky day
The sun started shinin'
When you started smiling
And I know it's gonna stay that way
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
Can't imagine lovin' anyone but you
Honey honey, so funny funny
Every minute lovin' everything you do
Honey honey, so funny funny
Couldn't see my way without you
Now I gotta tell the world about you
Tell me is it really true
This feelin' that I feel for you
Your own kind of lovin'
That makes me think
Nothing could ever take the place of you
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey

I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
OK you think you got a pretty face
But the rest of you is out of place
You looked all right before
Fox on the run
You screamed and everybody comes a-running
Take a run and hide yourself away
Fox on the run
F-foxy, foxy on the run and hideaway
You-you talk about just every band
But the names you drop are second hand
I've heard it all before
I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
You took the apple from the tree
And gave the fruits of love to me
But love is blind I couldn't see
Those neon nights you'd left behind
You should have laid it on the line
Procrastination stole my time
The day has come the years will go by
Things have changed have opened my eyes
And she tried to hide the feeling inside
But you know and you know and you know
The fever of love is like a hundred above
You are the one that turns me on
The fever of love is like a hundred above
I got you under my skin you are my adrenalin
I've got your love in my veins
It's gonna ease the pain in my heart
In my heart
Good vibrations came today
God only knows they're gonna stay
But psychic ways can fade away
You were the guardian of my soul
Who'll turn my memories to gold
I'll still be younger when I'm older
I'm feeling high on pure emotion
I know I could cry an ocean
And I can't hide my feeling inside
But you know and you know and you know
The fever of love is like a hundred above
. . .
The fever of love is like a hundred above
. . .
The fever of love
Why all those younger guys
Falling for you in burlesque disguise
Making you feel like you're thirty
Just being dirty, you think I care
Who was that millionaire
Showing you his piles of golden hair
He was so rich but uneasy
Trying to tease me but I don't care
Painting your face
Hiding the pace of life
Beautiful past under the mask
You wear
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
How can you sleep at night
Knowing the secrets, secrets, secrets
Secrets you lock up tight
Taking ya chip off ya shoulder
It's good being older without a care
Painting your face
Hiding the pace of life
Beautiful past under the mask
You wear, yeah
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
I met a girl who likes to dance
But there's only one way
To get inside her pants that's if I dance
Baby, there's no chance
Zombies brainwashed by the rhythm
Trapped inside their own escapism
In prison, I don't wanna be there
No, I don't wanna be there
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
With it's boom, boom, boom, boom, ahh
Give me a drink while you're rollerskating
I'll be here if you're waiting to be fed in your bed
I ain't gonna dance, disco ain't worth your masturbating
Rock and roll will still keep accelerating
I'll always be there, yeah, I'll always be there
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
With it's boom, boom, boom, boom, ahh
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
Co-Co would dream of dancing
at midnight beneath the stars
'cos when it comes to dancing
Co-Co's a star !
He danced in a ring of fire
that circled the Island shore
and as the flames got higher
they'd all call for more and more.
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Across the silver water
the sound of the Island drums
echoing Co-Co's laughter
yeah
Co-Co's the one !
He moves with the cool of moonlight
under a tropic sky
then into the morning sunlight
Hilton hotel room was small
Square box, two beds and four walls
I need the girl who is kind
Relief of my mind and body
I remembered the magazine ad
Pretty girls who will visit your pad
A knock at my door
Don't know what's in store for me
She said
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me, daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Oh, oh, oh, call me free phone
She walked in, I had to be strong
I felt she has always belonged
Ooh, I must keep calm
The sweat in my palm won't go away
She said, "Now please relax, my friend
I'll stay here 'til the very end"
She took off her shoes
Don't know what to do then
I heard her say
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Oh, oh, oh
I lay on my belly
She rubbed the petroleum jelly
Her hand felt so good
Lie on my back, nearly blowing my sack
Oh, I wish you would
Surrender sweet
What she does with her feet
She satisfies and her pocket don't lie
Then she waved her "Goodbye"
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Call me, call anytime
Aah, aah
You better beware, you better take care
You better watch out if you've got long black hair
He'll come from behind, you go out of your mind
You'd better not go, you'd never know what you'll find
Aah, aah
You look in his eyes, don't be surprised
If you don't know what's going on behind his disguise
Nobody knows where Buster goes
He'll steal your woman out from under your nose
Does anyone know the way, did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue what to do
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
The cops are out, they're running about
Don't know if they'll ever be able to Block Buster out
He's gotta be cought, he's gotta be taught
'Cos he's more evil than anyone here ever thought
Does anyone know the way did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue - ow!
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
Does anyone know the way did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue what to do
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Are you ready?
Oh, it's been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me, aha
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see
Oh, I see a man at the back
As a matter of fact, his eyes are as red as a sun
And a girl in the corner, let no one ignore her
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one
Oh, yeah, it was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
I'm reaching out for something
Touching nothing is all I ever do
Oh, I softly call you over
When you appear there's nothing left of you, aha
Now the man in the back
Is ready to crack as he raises his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's mourner
She could kill you with a wink of her eye
Oh yeah, it was electric
So frantically hectic
And the band started leaving
'Cause they all stopped breathing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Oh yeah, it was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ooh, it's, it's a ballroom blitz
It's, it's a ballroom blitz
It's, it's a ballroom blitz
So you think you'll take another piece of me
To satisfy your intellectual need
Do you want, do you want
Action, action, action, action
Gonna bring you down
'Cause you've been pushing me
You've got to recognize my superiority
Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action
Oh, I was suicidal 'cause you as my idol
Baby, baby, baby, bring it to your knees
Oh, there was a time I would have walked the line
But bled me dry with your insatiable greed
Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action
Do you want, do you want action?
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
The floor got up and hit my face
I couldn't make it to the door
I took a sip and drained the tap
And life became a finger snap
I couldn't understand it
My days were in a daze
Is it bloody Sunday?
I'd better say my prayers, oh yeah
Come on, the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Blitzin' right across the sky
High, high, higher
Believe the lies, I told myself
I wasn't into self denial, no way
I held my breath I count to ten
So turn around, 'round, 'round and do it again
I couldn't understand it
My life was all a blaze
Is it bloody Sunday?
My days were in a daze
When the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Blitzin' right across the sky
High, high, higher
And when the stars fell down
You know I' m gonna burn up the town
It's the 4th of July and I was getting so high
When the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Pitchin' right across the sky
What a day for a daydream
What a day for a daydreamin', boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain't really on my side
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside
I'm blowin' the day to take a walk in the sun
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn
I've been havin' a sweet dream
I've been dreamin' since I woke up today
It's starred me and my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
And even if time is passin' me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load
A pie in the face for bein' a sleepy bull toad
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right
A daydream will last a long into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years
What a day for a daydream
Custom made for a daydreamin', boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
Well it's Friday night
I need a fight
If she don't spread
I'm gonna bust her head
The guy has gone mad
'Cause his chicks been had
What can we do
When there's four of you
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
Sweet F A
Try to pull me out
Like a Roustabout
Gonna spend my bread
Then I'll kick your head
You're just my size
But if you're so wise
See the chick in black
Maybe she'll come back
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
Sweet F A
Yeah, the Hurstle's now
Really nice somehow
See the street car scene
From the black Limousine
Shout it out
Let it all hang out
But you won't get rough
'Cause it's all a bluff
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
You're a strange girl in a strange world
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
You can never make up your mind
By the way, you wanna spend your time
You always find a different place to stay
I'll open an investigation
Into the breakdown in communications
I'm tired of eating every word I say
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
If that's your way of feeling really free
Loosely wrapped in a fantasy
You'd better find another to take my place
I'm losing my imagination
I don't understand your situation
I got better things to do than waste my time
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Take me now, I think I'm a simple man
Just give me some loving and an easy living plan
But everyday now someone pulls my life
Sixties I say hey you got to get inside
Sunny days are over and gone for good
Shape up boy, you ain't working like you should
Well I know now I'm a man and I love this place
Don't have the 1980's kind of face
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry fields and San Fransisco too
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
Flower power, you never knew much pain
Sitting round, loving in and loving out again
Oh the seventies, I found I hardly knew
They left me high and dry and now I wonder why
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry fields and San Fransisco too
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man, Bob Dylan, oh, where are you?
I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Sixties man and hard like you
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
I was a young boy
Yeah, she was young too
So in love but they don't understand
Games that we played
Blue shadows in a doorway
Stealing time forbidden kisses
I wanted to stay
But I had to go away
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Well, it's been five years
Unjustified years
Other girls that just don't make it
Face to face with you
Red sunset through my window
I won't sleep tonight, I'm comin' home
Please let it be
That you're waiting there for me
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird, I'm comin' back
I know, you'll be waitin' for me
Gagged, ball and chained
Feel just the same
Heads on the wall
Maybe you're just playing games
Set me free
Mauled by a hound
Hangin' around
Is this for real?
I don't know when I'll be found
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free from you
Taken by force
By you of course
Far from my bed
I know I'd rather be dead
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free from you
Fire in my brain
Burn me insane
Making your mark
Don't leave me here in the dark
Set me free
Call me a saint
That's what I ain't
Inside my head
Maybe I'll feel better dead
Set me free
Set me free
You know I've tried to cool it
I've been trying to settle down
But when I think I'm made it
It drives me crazy
Well, I'm staying on the wild side
Always hit the higher ground
Nothing I do could amaze me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
Well, I've always been outrageous
But a change has gotta come
Making up my mind was never easy
I was born to late to love you
The day will never come
It's love that I need so don't tease me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
I'm so restless, so restless
I gotta say it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
I gotta say ya, too late now
Too late now, too late now
It takes eight days where I wanna go
Well, there's just me am I only go
I've got no face to make this slow
The further I travel the less I know
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home
I don't wanna be on my own
Won't somebody point me in the right direction
'Cause all I need is a New York connection
Really need a woman's affection
I've got to make the close connection
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home
I don't wanna be all alone
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home
I don't wanna be on my own
Don't wanna be on my own
I don't wanna be on my own
I don't wanna be on my own
I don't wanna be on my own
Sunshine takes me to a place where I'm living free
Something in your eyes is telling me this is where I want to be
But I never thought it would be so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
It's funny how it just gets sweeter and sweeter day by day?
It's sweet how you just get funnier to me in every way
But I never thought it would be so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
Sweet, sweet, sweet
I can't believe you're real
It's so rare to find someone who
Brings on the sunshine the way you do
It's so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
Sweet, sweet, sweet
Night is coming
Heart is burning
I know that the last train is gone
You're so charming
Moon is shining
But it's dark, dark, dark
While you're staying here
I'm happy
Wish you didn't have to go
Waiting for the perfect moment
But I have no chance
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
When I say "Yes", I'll be yours
I need more time
Say goodnight and kiss your eyes
Our naked mind will fix our pieces
Take your hands, I feel you sweetie
My heart belongs to you
Your love is touching my heart
Let me tell you that I'n sorry
Now is a not the time for this
I am going through so much in my life right now
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
When I say "Yes", I'll be yours
I need more time
Say goodnight and kiss your eyes
Our naked mind will fix our pieces
Take your hands, I feel you sweetie
My heart belongs to you
Your love is touching my heart
Saying goodbye, there's no meaning
Close your eyes and wait for morning
Love is true, we share this feeling
My heart is for your love
Your love is touching my heart
Hurly up now
Baby, hurly up
Night is almost coming to an end
This is not enough, this is not enough
Turn the lights on and find
Say goodnight and kiss your eyes
Our naked mind will fix our pieces
Take your hands, I feel you sweetie
My heart belongs to you
Your love is touching my heart
Say goodnight and kiss your eyes
Our naked mind will fix our pieces
Take your hands, I feel you sweetie
My heart belongs to you
Your love is touching my heart
Saying goodbye, there's no meaning
Close your eyes and wait for morning
Love is true, we share this feeling
My heart is for your love
Get my chain, get my chain
This GOOD music
You sweet to me: Diabetes, Peace treaties
Breakfast of champions, they need Wheaties
Carrying the torch, the Olympic 4 rings
I'm a javelin throw from the crowning of the king
I hear 'em whisper like a hummingbird sings
Of all the trust issues that a hundred birds bring
Now the wolves out hunting for your bling
As you preyin' on the bitches with the lowest self-esteem
It's a common running theme
Victim or vice Lord, disciple or black stone
What you looked at Christ for?
We in the last days, fire or the ice storm
Wear it in my chain as a symbol of a crime lord
Lets be honest, the cards on the table
Jealousy's a sin, Cain killed Abel
Backstabber, Ceasar had Brutus
It's hard to weed 'em out
Even Jesus had Judas
I can see July fourteenth in my mind
The softness in your eyes
I can taste your sweet lips against mine
Your sweet sixteenth
The candles in the background
Fireworks in the sky
We’re dancing around
Our summer together, the last till we fly
The last till goodbye
[Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[2nd Verse]
I can still feel you with me
I can feel you breathe
I feel your grace
See your face
Put myself in that place
I swear that one of these days
I’ll be able to say
That we ended up together anyway
But I’ll never forget
[Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[Bridge]
The sky is a rosemary color tonight
I’m thinking about our last fight
You were telling me to stay here
You said, follow your dreams dear
Don’t let me hold you back
But all I wanted to do was be with you
Oh and now all we have left is
[Final Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[Final Verse]
Everything in it’s reverse
You’re gone living your dreams
Without me
I’ve been living everyday with the hurt
I’m dealing with the pain of losing you
To get what I want in life
Doing what I have to
To make us both happy in our own right
Our own right
Paul Keating:
I've been out there pacing
Bracing for defeat
Ready to be roasted
And I felt that demon heat
But I got lifted
When I thought that I would fall
Now this feels like the sweetest victory of all
Never felt too comfy
Up there on the top
I felt like Humpty Dumpty
And I was waiting for the drop
But I got lifted
I'm floating high above the wall
Now this feels like the sweetest victory of all
I thank my wife and son and daughters
My faithful supporters
You kept my team full of steam
I thank the people of the nation
For their validation
Keep on believing in the dream
You know that I've been wishin'
I had a second shot
Thanks to your decision
That's exactly what I got
And I got lifted
Now I hear my country call
Band:
We want Paul! We want Paul!
Keating:
Now this feels like the sweetest victory
Now it seems like y'all wanna stick to me
I think perfections nice
But I'm human so I will improvise
So what it's not the bull's eye
Cause I sharpen my arrow with every try
And no I not afraid of rock bottom I forward in my mail there often
You pick up every thing letters and the left over pieces of me
Special delivery always in time you fit perfectly
I love the way I can't stop smiling you are all I need
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You are the best part of me
Checkmark how to define sweet
You help erase the times when I wishing can I push rewind
When I look in your eyes I believe there is more to life
Then settling for ordinary and I don't wanna stop
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You are the best part of me
Checkmark how to define
Sweet sweet sweet sweet
And I don't wanna throw it away
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You are the part of me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You are the best part of me
Checkmark how to define
Checkmark how to define
Checkmark how to define
You are you are the best part of me
You are you are the best part of me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You are the best part of me
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Call me,

You saved my butt today
and for that i want to thank you.
And for that you are so sweet
Sweeter then sugar, baby.
Honey, honey
you're no match for my guy!
My guy is sweeter then you....
my guy is sweeter then you!
You can put my smile back on my face,
you can put my doubts in the right place,
in the back of my mind...
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
Have you heard on the radio?
My song is singing about you.
Have you seen on the patio,
I'm there thinking about you.
I'm always thinking about...
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
I'll love you till the end of time,
I'll love you and you'll always be mine!
And on my mind!
I can't say how much I love you in a song!
Because I will never, ever tell you
how much I love you!
(because I can't)
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
Boy, you know I can never tell you how much
I love you.
But maybe in a kiss you'll know!
