Lyrics for Hot Show:
Simon:Hi I'm Simon. This is Milo.
Milo:I'm Milo.
Both:Welcome to Prozzak's Hot Show.
Milo:Enjoy.
Simon:Enjoy.
And Milo began to play...
I remember back in school
Didn't care
Was a fool
Fell asleep in every class
Waxing cool
Seven years passed by in spite of everything we made it
Me and Milo go out cruising after show
I never gave much thought to it
Before this night
Before this trip
But here I am so hungry and alone
With the most gorgeous birds that nest in Mexico
Usted es muy loco
That's all she said to me
Usted es muy loco
Whatever could she mean
And then Milo played...
So I fell into retreat
Backed away
To my sleep
The candle like a crystal ball
Brought me back
To Oxford hall
With Mrs. Espanosa and her Spanish class on Mondays
And the reason that I took that class at all
You see
My father in his wisdom said
By all the ink
By all the lead
When it comes to love there's one thing that I know
There ain't nothing like the stuff in Mexico
Usted es muy loco
That's all she said to me
Usted es muy loco
Whatever could she mean
And then Milo began to play...
And then Chico played...
And then I began to dream...
Simon baby, don't you know
I need you bad, I want you so
Won't you be my superflo
From here and now into tomorrow
I can be your one and only suntan senorita
If only you could speak the words I know
So if I could go back in time
I'd concentrate
I'd stay in line
And in that class I swear I'd get an A
And then I'd say
I repazar la noche conmigo
Usted es muy loco
That's all she said to me
Usted es muy loco
Whatever could she mean
Usted es muy loco
That's all she said to me
Usted es muy loco
Something is wrong with me
Can't seem to get to sleep
I've got a strange disease
Words tumble out of me
Careless and clumsily
Nothing is what it seems
Passing my time planning the crime
Of stealing your heart away from you
Wondering if I could rock you a rhyme
To convince you to marry me
Oh ya...
Come on...
Oh ya...
Come on...
If I were a dentist I would take the opportunity to look in your mouth
Maybe if I did then I would better understand just what you're talking about
And if my x-ray picture gave the proper information I'd be back at the start
'Cause every time I try and talk to you my words keep falling apart
Oh ya...
Pretty girls make me nervous
Come on...
Pretty girls make me nervous
Oh ya...
Pretty girls make me nervous
Come on...
When they're as pretty as you
And if I was a surgeon I would do an operation to examine your heart
I'd check to see if you and me could really ever move beyond the very start
And if my diagnosis turned out positive I'd still be only dreaming of you
'Cause approaching you is something that I know I'd never have the guts to do
Chorus
And when she smiles she makes me happy
And when she gets near I get so dreamy ah...
And in my award-winning dream I perform like I was on a movie screen
As I casually pop the question
Do you wanna go out for coffee with me?
"I don't drink coffee'
If I were a lawyer I would argue for the right to kiss you passionately
And if I were a teacher I would rewrite history so you would end up with me
And if I were an architect then I'd be busy drawing up the perfect plan
But of all of these things above so alone is the only thing I am
Chorus X 2
Do you remember how we met?
Spring time on the Island of Corfu
I was lost and asked for help
You were teaching at the local school
We talked a while and then made plans
While all the children laughed at me and you
They could see the way we felt
Much before either of us knew
Walked together hand in hand
A stranger from a foreign land but soon,
mornings turned to afternoons
And dinners turned to making love
To you, to you
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady Oh......
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Summer days out on the beach
Cocktails on the patio at noon
You waved to me from out at sea
And I considered staying there with you
I watched the sunlight dancing through your hair
And like a ghost of history
I don't know why
My heart just died
I realized that it could never be
Circumstance and broken dreams
Like satellites with laser beams from above
Tracked me down and found us out
And filled my head
And made me doubt
This love of ours
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Seems like life has played another joke
This dream of love has left me broke again
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
What is it for
Been dumped
Been hurt
I've been around
Maybe I've forgotten how to love
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Or maybe I've given up
Oh Oh Oh Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Oh Oh .....
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh.....
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Now the ocean is in your eyes
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I never meant to make you cry
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I've never been good with good-byes.
There you go again
Playing with my heart
Just when I've moved on
You're bringing me back to the start
Oh well can't you see I'm breaking
I've been there for the taking
Now there's just one thing I'm asking of you
Baby don't speak to me so softly
Ask me if I'm okay
Smile if you should pass my way
Try not to wear your hair so pretty
Be so bright and witty
Laugh at all the jokes I make
Cos I still think about you every day
And it still hurts me when I hear you say
You don't love me that way
It's so bittersweet
When I see you now
And every time we meet
You've got me wondering how
How I'm supposed to smile and listen
There's some new love you're kissing
When I feel so desperate for you today
Baby don't speak to me so softly
Ask me if I'm okay
Smile if you should pass my way
Try not to wear your hair so pretty
Be so bright and witty
Laugh at all the jokes I make
Cos I still think about you every day
And it still hurts me when I hear you say
You don't love me that way
Oh can't you see I'm breaking
I've been there for the taking
Now there's just one thing I'm asking of you
Baby don't speak to me so softly
Ask me if I'm okay
Smile if you should pass my way
Try not to wear your hair so pretty
Be so bright and witty
Laugh at all the jokes I make
Cos I still think about you every day
And it still hurts me when I hear you say
"Good evening Milo. Here are the tickets you requested. Remember, be back by 1:30. I can't shut down until I know my boys are safe."
It's time
For you
And me
To have a little fun
Come on baby, feed the night
Come on Simon, feed me
Loosen if you feel uptight
Milo, you so crazy
Would you like a lover's bite
Why you always tease me
Cos we want to
Cos we love to
Cos we need to feed the night
Feed the night with lover's moans
With overtures and undertones
With booty bounce and saxophones
Come on, come on and feed it
Feed the night with neon lights
With taxi cabs and weekend flights
With miniskirts and megabytes
Come on, come on and feed it
Your bod is so delicious
Your kisses are nutritious
Your buns are bubblicious
I fancy your design
I've got to make you mine
It's dark
It's hot
The light is coming
Ready or not
Come on baby, feed the night
Come on Simon, feed me
Loosen if you feel uptight
Milo, you so crazy
Would you like a lover's bite
Why you always tease me
Cos we want to
Cos we love to
Cos we need to feed the night
Feed the night with motorcars
With super dates and pin-up stars
With photo flash and candy bars
Come on, come on and feed it
Feed the night when pleasure calls
With microfilm and mirrored balls
With party girls and bathroom stalls
Come on, come on and feed it
It's dark
It's hot
The light is coming
Ready or not
Come on baby, feed the night
Come on Simon, feed me
Loosen if you feel uptight
Milo, you so crazy
Would you like a lover's bite
Why you always tease me
Cos we like to
Cos we love to
Cos we need to feed the night
"Oh my god, she's gorgeous."
"Let me handle this."
"I've got designs on your interior."
"Pardonnez?"
"Let's decorate, baby."
Your bod is so delicious
Your kisses are nutritious
Your buns are bubbilicious
I fancy your design
You're mine, you're mine, you're mine
It's hot
It's hot
It's hot
It's hot
It's hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot
Come on baby, feed the night
Come on Simon, feed me
Loosen if you feel uptight
Milo, you so crazy
Would you like a lover's bite
Why you always tease me
Cos we want to
Cos we love to
Cos we need to feed the
Come on baby, feed the night
Come on Simon, feed me
Loosen if you feel uptight
Milo, you so crazy
Would you like a lover's bite
Why you always tease me
Cos we want to
Cos we love to

And I guess it's true

You need to know I finally understand
And I gotta get in touch with you now
But I can't

But tonight I feel like driving my car to LA
Just so you can see me crying
Cause I'm a bastard if it's true
Yeah and I guess it's true

What do you do when your best friend goes one day
Somebody takes their life away
Don't want to wake up...Monday morning
And how are you supposed to deal with everything you gotta do
When you can barely believe it's true
Don't wanna wake up Monday morning
And I don't think that I can go to school today
Without you...
Without you...
Monday morning
And missing you is something that I never thought I'd have to do
You were always there I was there for you too
Don't wanna wake up Monday morning
And of all the evil souls that do survive
How could this world take such a beautiful life
Don't wanna wake up Monday morning
And I don't think that I can go to school today
And I don't think that I can go to school today
Without you...
Without you...
Monday morning
Something's coming over me I'll never be the same
And how can the same world that brought you here
Just come and take you away
And if there is a way that you can hear me when I pray
When I wake up Monday morning
hmm hmm hmm hmm
I don't think that I can go to school today
Without you
I want a sweeping romance
I want to have the last dance
I want to be in some danger with you
I want a secret love code
We'll switch to silent safe mode
We'll give the cameras our own little show
We're not alone
And I will check the locks twice as you take off your wire
And light the fire
I wanna meet a dangerous girl
I wanna seat in the underworld
I wanna sleep with diamonds and pearls
I want my feet in a dangerous world with you
I want a sweeping romance
We'll drive a sports car through France
Our stares will burn with mistrust and desire
We're on fire
We'll forge Brazilian passports
Hide out in fancy resorts
We'll sip martinis before we retire
And we'll conspire
And the fate of the free world will Rest in our hearts
As we get started
I wanna meet a dangerous girl
I wanna seat in the underworld
I wanna sleep with diamonds and pearls
I want my feet in a dangerous world with you
And then I heard a sound
And when I looked around
Those same old cupboard drawers
Those creaky wooden floors
What happened yesterday
To make her turn away
If we could be that way
Nothing much to do but watch the rain
Sunday morning all alone again
So I ring you up for consolation
Hop the underground I'll meet you at the station
I've got a little game that we can play
I've saved it specially for a rainy day
We don't even have to leave my flat
The rules are simple you can bet on that
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag baby
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Let's play shag tag Uh huh
You're it!
Do you remember how we used to play
Running 'round the playground everyday
Now we're tied to adult situations
The rules for play have different connotations
Take your clothes off
Find a hiding spot
I'll count to ten and girl I'll get you hot
And after all the games are said and done
We'll cuddle up together and make some love
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Let's play shag tag Uh huh
You're it!
Every time I feel the way I do today
I think of you and it seems a little better
And in this gloomy world of ours
The games we play
Are magical
And sexual
And wonderful
So come to me and save me girl today
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Let's play shag tag Uh huh

It's not so bad to be alone
It's not so bad to be alone
I keep telling myself
(It's not so bad to be alone)
I keep telling myself
(It's not so bad to be alone)
Every time I think of you
I just don't know what to do
And when I go to sleep at night
Regret those times we used to fight
And after all is said and done
I realize you were the one
I keep telling myself
(To be alone)
I keep telling myself
(To be alone)
I keep telling myself
(To be alone)
I keep telling myself
(To be alone)
Every time I think of you I just don't know what to do
(I keep telling myself to be alone)
When I go to sleep at night, regret those times we used to fight
(I keep telling myself to be alone)
And after all is said and done, I realize you were the one
I got a message from you last night on the phone
You said you're missing me and I should call you
And after all the things we've been through in the end
I can't believe that we can't do what friends do
And I'm here
To tell you
I never broke my promise to you
No fear
No pressure
On you
But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
I still remember how you looked at me that way
Like I was everything you ever wanted
I didn't mean to let you down the way I did
Darkness descended and we just can't stop it
And you're here
To remind me
Of the things I said I would do
Don't you worry my dear
I'm right here
For you
But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
To let you go free
If that's what you need from me
When I get this feeling down below
I lock my bathroom door
Thinking of ways it used to go
Burning me up from head to toe
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I get this feeling down below
I pounce you, take control
We bounce back to and fro
We clean the dirty floor
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
If there could be a way to find you
You know I'd be driving right behind you
You know I'd be looking out for danger
We could pretend that we're both strangers
I won't say a thing
When I get this feeling down below
I'm ready to explode
We drop like dominoes
Stimulate my frontal lobe
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I get this feeling down below
Right back against the door
Slap back delay I go
You crack my inner code
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you
If there could be a way to find you
You know I'd be driving right behind you
You know I'd be looking out for danger
We could pretend that we're both strangers
If there could be a way to find you
You know I'd be driving right behind you
You know I'd be looking out for danger
We could pretend that we're both strangers
I remember like it's yesterday
The song we used to sing
What was it's name
Danced together till the break of day
And I knew I'd never be the same
Now many winters turned to spring
But where is the love that I thought they
would bring
LaLaLaLaLaLa..La....La....La.....Europa
LaLaLaLaLaLa..La....La....La.....Europa
London, Amsterdam and gay Paris
Don't mean that much to me, they're all
the same
People falling but no one for me
They can never match that girl from Spain
And still I long for that sweet Spanish sky
Senorita do you think of me and of this
melody
LaLaLaLaLaLa..La....La....La.....Europa
LaLaLaLaLaLa..La....La....La.....Europa
A box of letters and a photograph
Are all that's left to keep our memory
Sometimes I swear that I can hear you
laugh
Like a ghost of what could never be
At night I will look across the sea
And wonder if you could be looking at me
The ocean haunts me like a symphony
that plays our melody
LaLaLaLaLaLa..La....La....La.....Europa
If we were nude
Would we have freedom
Would it be so rude
Or is there a reason
And if we all stripped
Wouldn't it be revealing
Wouldn't have to be hip
And you could see what I'm feeling
Do you prefer tapered jeans or bellbottoms
Tiny shirts and ladies' skirts
Backwards caps and baggy slacks
White sneakers and ties with vests
It's not fair
I can't grow that bushy hair
Last year you were the hip-hop queen
And now you're on the rock and roll team
The truth is I don't understand
Just wanna show you who I really am
Under the clothes we wear
Under the clothes we wear
I'll meet you there
If I could talk
To you in the shower
Would you have style
And would you still have your power
And if I wore preppy shirts and cargo pants
White makeup and safety pins
Skater shorts and football pads
Just like Abercrombie ads
What can I do
I can't afford to impress you
Last week you were the dancing queen
Now you're all about the indie queen
Why is everything so fake
Are we really in the groups we make
Under the clothes we wear
Under the clothes we wear
I'll meet you there
My aunt Frieda
She dresses exactly like her friends
I suspect it never ends
If we could shed this phony skin
Then maybe you would see me
Under the clothes we wear
I'll meet you there
Under the clothes we wear
Under the clothes we wear
I'll meet you there
Under the clothes we wear
Under the clothes we wear
I'll meet you there
Is it really over
Anna-Lisa
Seems that we've grown older
and time has beat us
seems I've forgotten who to be
you took the better part of me
my heart, my soul, my sweetest memories
you're my identity
Boxes line our hallway
where laughter used to be
empty house surrounds me
and echos our history
I wrack my brain
to find a way
to bring us back to yesterday
my love, my life, my childhood fantasy
still everything to me
my Anna-Lisa
Looking out this window
almost seeing
you pull in the driveway
and kiss me so casually
if I knew then
what I know now
I would have changed your mind somehow
my hopes, my dreams, my future family
that's what you took from me
I like to watch
I like the way you bounce bounce
I like to watch
Ya ya groove 'n' move it
I like to watch
Shake it if you've got it lady
Here's my confession
I like to watch your hot box
I leave my house anticipating cruising/using
Down at the discotheque
Night time is for fun
Step to the bar
Drink with me for leisure/pleasure
I spy a frauline
The party's just begun
I like to watch
I like the way you bounce bounce
I like to watch
Ya ya groove 'n' move it
I like to watch
Shake it if you've got it lady
Here's my confession
I like to watch your hot box
You've got the moves
That make me feel so fly/high
The way you wiggle and jiggle is astounding
Feel the rhythm
It puts you in a trance/dance
You little devil
You've got my heart a pounding
I like to watch
I like the way you bounce bounce
I like to watch
Ya ya groove 'n' move it
I like to watch
Shake it if you've got it lady
Here's my confession
I like to watch your hot box
Do you have papers for being so beautiful
I spy with my eye
Something that is
I'll crack your code
Please give up your digits/gigits
Release your data
The contents of your mind
I see you blushing
Adrenaline is flushing/rushing
No need to fear me
I did not come to touch
Hot Show
She's my technicolour disco
Yo, Yo
Ya we're gonna make a video
She'll keep it on the down-low
Dig It
Hot show
You look beautiful in slow-mo
Quid Pro Quo
Cause she's my sexy queen of Soho
And the reason that I come and go
From Brooklyn to Manhattan
You're the one
Who makes me hum
Every time I see ya girl
I get to feeling sorta down
And kinda out
Like you'll never be mine
And you and I could be so crazy
Like a crazy roller coaster ride
Let me in 'cause
I'm out of my mind
Hot show
I didn't know that you go stereo
Yo, Yo
Meet me at the local Ho-Jo
Drop that good for nothing zero
And come into my life
www.
Incoming contact
www.
User is on-line
I got your e-mail
Disgruntled female
Every detail
Before my eyes
So I responded
I think we bonded
We corresponded
And watched the sunrise
Then you came through the screen and you taught me the meaning of happiness
And the words that you write came and filled up my night with your tenderness
And if you're ever so inclined
Here's where you can find me
www. I won't believe it
www. until I read it
My heart is tied up in a knot
You know it's true
www.nevergetoveryou
You made it clear to me
Described your fear to me
Of getting near to me
And risking our friendship
I stayed up all night
Construction web-site
Just click on our fight
And watch me crying
'Cause you said you were scared and should probably stick to the Internet
And it hurts because deep down inside I believe we are more than friends
And if you ever change your mind
Here's where you can find me
www. I won't believe it
www. until I read it
My heart is tied up in a knot
You know it's true
www.nevergetoveryou
Regarding the way we are together
Regarding the way we both should be
Regardless of time or space or weather
A part of you lives inside of me
So if you ever change your mind
You know where you can find me
www. I won't believe it
www. until I read it
My heart is tied up in a knot
You know it's true

O.K. Ya see t'was 1983 when we first walked
arm in arm
Across the sea it was my destiny that I'd find
her in Hong Kong
There it was a soldier falls in love as we
walked through Lan Kwai Fong
Limousines and new wave beauty queens and
a romance just begun
Ya Tsunami was her name like a tidal wave
she came
And now I'll never be free
I was drowning in a wave of ecstasy Tsunami
Just when you think the worst has past she
rises up to destroy me,
Just when you think it's safe to sail again
Ya she rises up and then
I'm drowning in a wave of ecstasy
Tsu-Tsu-Tsunami
Now some more t'was 1984 tour of duty's
almost over
Begged that girl to join me in my world but no
man could control her
Out of the south China Sea Tsunami rolled
over me
And now I'll never be free
I told you 'bout Europa and me
And how she haunted every memory
Went round the world just to forget that song
To sing a new one for a girl from Hong Kong
And like a killer tidal wave she washed my
heart away
And now I'll never be free
I'm still drowning in a wave of ecstasy
Tsu-Tsu-Tsunami
So long ago so far away she still rises up to
destroy me
Although she's half a world away
It feels like yesterday
I'm still drowning in a wave of ecstasy
If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end
She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
I was walking down the street one day and passed a pretty lady
She looked good to me and her booty got me crazy
I thought that I should talk to her instead of being lazy
But as I approached all my thoughts got hazy
I hailed a cab and said follow that Mercedes
I will if you want, but first you've got to pay me
I looked out the window and I noticed it was raining
The traffic got stuck so I fell into a daydream
My phone vibrated but I didn't feel like talking
Went down to the subway and I saw the chick was walking
Stopped at the store, had to do some food shopping
And Mark was cooking up a new beat he was dropping
I still think of you
If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end
She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
I was at a hipster party with my girlfriend down in Soho
They showed a movie of a girl shot in slo-mo
Pretended I was laughing but inside I wanted to go
Arrive with a partner, sneak away solo
Ran down the stairs and I kicked open the back door
Hit some guy and he called me a mofo
I looked up at the sky, saw the moon was beaming yellow
Why must I be such a messed-up fellow?
Went to a bar that was dirty and dingy
Met Lisa and Jacquelyn and Cheryl and Lindsey
You gotta pay the cover cos the bouncer be stingy
Got mad, walked home, hair got frizzy
I still think of you
If you ever find yourself
In a tricky kind of love
And you need a little help
I can be your ticket out
Even though our time has passed
And the love we have won't last
I will always be your friend
It'll never have to end
She said ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
And we're such good friends
Ooh baby can we do it again
You know I love the way you love me
A little sexual frustration
Combined with lack of motivation
And a loss of concentration
I've got a strange disease I
can't concentrate on work
My libido's gone berserk
Now I'm sweating through my shirt
I've got a strange disease
Two weeks ago
You said you'd never leave me
And here I am alone
And in this world of reckless happenstance
Why do good things have to go away
And leave you with nothing
Ya, you left me with nothing
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
And a strange disease
wee ooo wee ooo
Hyper emotional sensations
Sent via television stations
Unaffected by locations
I've got a strange disease I
can't seem to get to sleep I
don't want nothing to eat
Walking up and down your street
I've got a strange disease
Why did you have to put
so much pressure on me?
You pushed my heart away
I didn't mean to scare you little one
Is there nothing I can say?
Don't leave me with nothing
Ya you left me with nothing
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
And a strange disease
wee ooo wee ooo
Now I'm standing in the rain
Water soaking through my brain
Every droplet speaks your name
And it's driving me insane
I don't want to go to work
My libido's gone berserk I
don't want nothing to eat
Walking up and down your street
But only two weeks ago
You said you'd never leave me
And here I am alone
And in this world of reckless happenstance
Why do good things have to go away?
And leave you with nothing
Ya you left me with nothing
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
And a strange disease
I was supposed to get
Get over you by now
It's been a year or so
And I just don't know how
Still dealing with this pain
Still living on my own
Still looking back in vain
Still wondering where to go
Things got so crazy then
I know I hurt you so
If I could turn the wheel
I'd go another road
You changed your number now
You're just forever gone
No way to contact you
So I will sing this song
And I won't mind
If you meet me on the other side
We could be closer than we think we are
To starting over again
To starting over again
I know I really messed
I really messed you up
While you were looking down
Drank from another cup
Got so wrapped up in me
That when I turned around
I let you slip away
I barely made a sound
I hope you learn to give
Give someone else a try
If I could go back there
I'd never say goodbye
And I won't mind
If you meet me on the other side
We could be closer than we think we are
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
And I won't mind
If you meet me on the other side
We could be closer than we think we are
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
To starting over again
Ya I'll dance with you for a while
But I'm not going to take you home
I don't even know you last name
Let me explain
Been around the world a thousand times
Been swept away on distant shores
Bedded down with angels
Drank their wine
And always the conclusion is the same
Making love is always grand
But eventually
Love ends a losing game
So let's leave it alone
I'm going home
I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
Where no one else can harm me baby no
Oh Oh
Although I'm really quite fond of you
My best intentions never turn out right
I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
People think celibacy's a crime
Not saying I won't love again
But couldn't we just talk for a while
And lately intimacy's got me down
Been hurt so many times before
Jumped the gun and ended up alone
It may sound a little funny
But you gotta know
The information age
Things move so fast
Fax machines
Computer screens
Seems like love
Is something of the past
And modern girls
Got one thing in their head
Before you down your second drink
You're in the cab
And then you're in her bed
So let's hold off on the sex play
I don't even know your last name
I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
Where no one else can harm me baby no
Oh Oh
Although I'm really quite fond of you
My best intentions never turn out right
Nothing much to do but watch the rain
Sunday morning all alone again
So I ring you up for consolation
Hop the underground I'll meet you at the
station
I've got a little game that we can play
I've saved it specially for a rainy day
We don't even have to leave my flat
The rules are simple you can bet on that
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag baby
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Let's play shag tag Uh huh
You're it!
Do you remember how we used to play
Running 'round the playground everyday
Now we're tied to adult situations
The rules for play have different connotations
Take your cloths off
Find a hiding spot
I'll count to ten and girl I'll get you hot
And after all the games are said and done
We'll cuddle up together and make some love
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Let's play shag tag Uh huh
You're it!
Every time I feel the way I do today
I think of you and it seems a little better
And in this gloomy world of ours
The games we play
Are magical
And sexual
And wonderful
So come to me and save me girl today
Let's play shag tag baby
(Run around with nothing on)
Let's play shag tag
(We'll do it till the clouds are gone)
Hey ravers, did you know that I was once where you are now
Flashback to subway ride
A midnight escape to the underground
Calling all sweet dreamers of the world
No matter what they take from you
Your dreams are just a Saturday away
Saturday people
Waiting around their whole lives for the weekend to come
Saturday people
Sitting in portable classrooms a-twirling their thumbs
Ho-hum
Maybe you've seen them
Heads hanging low on their desks stumble in on a Monday
Can hardly believe them
Sunglasses, ecstasy, vodka and tonic recovery
But hang on
Pretty soon it'll be Friday afternoon
We're all running for cover from a world going nowhere
On a Saturday night
With no reason to be just to be somebody somewhere
On a Saturday night
Girls and boys
(Saturday)
Make some noise
(Saturday)
Girls and boys
Pretty soon it'll be Monday morning
In my opinion
There's too many lives being wasted on missing the fun
Didn't or did ya
Ambition eventually leads to executive breakdown
Rave party sequel
Hop on a bus magic trip to industrial building
So hang on
It's been a long ride but you know we'll be there soon
We're all running for cover from a world going nowhere
On a Saturday night
With no reason to be just to be somebody somewhere
On a Saturday night
Girls and boys
(Saturday)
Make some noise
(Saturday)
Girls and boys
Pretty soon it'll be Monday morning
Have you seen Nelly Indigo
We were supposed to meet three hours ago I know
Oh no
Was she caught up in the corporate undertow
Was she too tired to get up and go
Guess sooner or later everybody gives in
So sad when life takes your best Saturday friend away
And life took you away
(Girls and boys
Make some noise)
We'll be running for cover from a world going nowhere
On a Saturday night
With no reason to be just to be somebody somewhere
On a Saturday night
(Girls and boys)
We'll be running for cover from a world going nowhere
On a Saturday night
(Make some noise)
With no reason to be just to be somebody somewhere
On a Saturday night
Girls and boys
(Saturday)
On a Saturday night
Make some noise
Ready ready set go
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Come on come on come on come on
Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah
Come on come on come on come on
If I were a dentist I would take the opportunity to look in your mouth
Maybe if I did then I would better understand just what you're talking about
And if my x-ray picture gave the proper information I'd be back at the start
Cos every time I try and talk to you my words keep falling apart
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
When they're as pretty as you
If I were surgeon I would do an operation to examine your heart
I'd check to see if you and me could really ever move beyond the very start
And if my diagnosis turned out positive I'd still be only dreaming of you
Cos approaching you is something that I know I'd never have the guts to do
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
When they're as pretty as you
And when she smiles she makes me happy
And when she's near I get so dreamy
And in my award-winning dream
I perform like I was on a movie screen
As I casually pop the question
"Do you wanna go out for coffee with me?"
"I don't drink coffee."
If I were a lawyer I would argue for the right to kiss you passionately
And if I were a teacher I would rewrite history so you would end up with me
And if I were an architect then I'd be busy drawing up the perfect plan
But of all these things above so alone is the only thing I am
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
When they're as pretty as you
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
Pretty girls make me nervous
The politics of nations got me down
Geography and policy have run me out of town
Seems like worldly things have come between
us now
But I've got the will and if there's a way
I'll get to you somehow
Omobolasire, I really wanta see ya
Omobolasire, hang on because I'm on my way
She is my lover
From the heart of Africa
Like no other
Princess of Nigeria
I was delirious
Ya that sun was beating down
Lady mysterious
Like an oasis that I found
And then she smiled
And then she came
And when she spoke
She told me her name
Omobolasire, I really wanta see ya
Omobolasire, hang on because I'm on my way
Short cut through Lagos
Through the market place together
Was getting serious
I could have stayed that way forever
As fate dictated I had to go back home to
London
My heart vibrated
Cause I knew I had to get to you
Then came that sad day
A flight from Heathrow back to Lagos
Desperate to see ya
But they would not let me through
What can I do?
'Cept write to you
The politics of nations got me down
Geography and policy have run me out of town
Seems like worldly things have come between us now
But I've got the will and if there's a way I'll get to you somehow
Omobolasire
I really wanta see ya
Omobolasire
Hang on because I'm on my way
She is my lover from the heart of Africa
Like no other Princess of Nigeria
I was delirious, ya that sun was beating down
Lady mysterious like an oasis that I found
And then she smiled and then she came
And when she spoke she told me her name
Omobolasire
I really wanta see ya
Omobolasire
Hang on because I'm on my way
Short cut through Lagos
Through the market place together
Was getting serious
I could have stayed that way forever
As fate dictated I had to go back home to London
My heart vibrated 'cause I knew I had to get to you
Then came that sad day
A flight from Heathrow back to Lagos
Desperate to see ya
But they would not let me through
What can I do? 'Cept write to you
Was it Washington Square
Or the way you wore you hair?
Was it central park
Or kissing after dark?
Guess I'll never know
Not sure I even care
But my heart will always live
With you and me there
But I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
Ahahahah
And she can't afford to leave
hahah
Was it the Sea Port in June
Or your face by the moon?
Was it Soho's charm
Or you and I arm in arm?
Was it the 6 train uptown
Or true love that I found?
It all blends into one
When I think of you now
But I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
Ahahahah
And she can't afford to leave
Ahahah
Well I know that a promise is to keep
But money's tight and I've been losing sleep
Old Man Circumstance will have his way
It's true
But what I wouldn't give to stay here with you
And I can't afford to live in N.Y.C.
Ahahahah
And she can't afford to leave
Ahahah
And I've never been good with good-byes
Julie wants to get out of town
She needs to settle down
Move to a place where no one knows her
Lisa just had to get away
Nothing could make her stay
Tired of living under cover
Everybody knows somebody trying to get free
Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to
And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be
Daniel moved to another school
Alliances can be cruel
When you're alone without nobody
Michael begged Jen to take a stand
And fight for the love they had
But she'd rather deal with being lonely
Everybody's got somebody telling them what to be
And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be
Na na na na na na...
And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be
Be as shy as you want to
Be as loud as you want to
Be as small as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you
Be as thin as you want to
Be as fat as you want to
Be as short as you want to
Do you remember how we met?
Spring time on the Island of Corfu
I was lost and asked for help
You were teaching at the local school
We talked a while and then made plans
While all the children laughed at me and you
They could see the way we felt
Much before either of us knew
Walked together hand in hand
A stranger from a foreign land but soon,
mornings turned to afternoons
And dinners turned to making love
To you, to you
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady Oh......
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Summer days out on the beach
Cocktails on the patio at noon
You waved to me from out at sea
And I considered staying there with you
I watched the sunlight dancing through your
hair
And like a ghost of history
I don't know why
My heart just died
I realized that it could never be
Circumstance and broken dreams
Like satellites with laser beams from above
Tracked me down and found us out
And filled my head
And made me doubt
This love of ours
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Seems like life has played another joke
This dream of love has left me broke again
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
What is it for
Been dumped
Been hurt
I've been around
Maybe I've forgotten how to love
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Or maybe I've given up
Oh Oh Oh Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
LaLaLaLaLaLaLa
Oh Oh .....
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh.....
You know you're beautiful when you smile
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Now the ocean is in your eyes
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I never meant to make you cry
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Mediterranean Lady
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
A dream that's old, a song that's new
Money borrowed, guitar blue
True love tries, but has to fail
When distance, time and space prevail
I can still see the clothes we wore and the bar next door
And the dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America
There was Milo and me it's true and the songs we knew and a picture of you
And a beat up van with a guitar in my hand so I could work it through
Lonely American nights
Can make you hungry for the arms of someone new
But put me under the lights
I'd never jeopardize the trust I had with you
And I hope you found yourself another lover with a heart that's true
Someone to say to you
Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I'll be coming right home to you
Day light, stay bright, if it's alright I'll be makin' it home to you
We used to pray for the end of school, for our favorite tune, up in my bedroom
Where I would wait for you baby in the parking lot to get you in the afternoon
Do you remember the way we talked when I dropped you off 'till the sun came up
When I awoke to find you sleeping at the opposite end of the telephone
But everything has a price
Ambition ordered me to do what I must do
Another love sacrificed
Another offer to the gods of losing you
And I hope you realize my heart will always hold a place for you
When I used to say to you
Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I'll be coming right home to you
Day light, stay bright, if it's alright I'll be makin' it home to you
And where were you baby when the wheels on my bus broke down
And where was I darlin' when you needed me to be around
And I suppose I'll never find another lover with a heart so true
Someone to say to you
Hold tight
Tonight
Day light
If it's alright
Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I'll be coming right home to you
Day light, stay bright, if it's alright I'll be makin' it home to you
Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I'll be coming right home to you
Day light, stay bright, it's alright I'll be makin' it home to you
I can still see the cloths we wore and the bar next door
And dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America
"Hello, you've reached the Prozzak compound. For Simon, press 1. For Milo, press 2."
"Simon, I was thinking about our talk last night, and the truth is..."
It's not me it's you
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
It's not me it's you
I recall the way that Stephanie said to me callously
It's not me it's you
And I remember just how Julianne held my hand headline ran
It's not me it's you
Seems the old equation's holding true: one from two equals blue
And nice guys always lose
First we're stuck like glue
Then you say we're through
All that you can tell me is that it's not me it's you
It's not me it's you
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
It's not me it's you
I can see the day that Minnie Mae walked away heard her say
It's not me it's you
And how could I forget how Caroline's name was signed dotted line
It's not me it's you
Share the blame I do
Relationships take two
But all that you can tell me is that it's not me it's you
It's not me it's you
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
It's not me it's you
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
It's not me it's you
"Minnie, if we don't make it out of this thing, I want you do know that I really did love you."
"I know, Simon. It's just that..."
Isn't life a game of touch and go
Girls talk high
Boys talk low
It's not me it's you
Voices ring and echo
Psycho show
Memories flow
Now sing low
It's not me it's you
Prophecy came true
Message coming through
Click on ICQ
Parting words of love denied are
It's not me, it's not me, it's not me it's you
It's not me, it's not me, it's not me it's you
It's not me, it's not me, it's not me it's you
Simon, why is your light still on?
Oh Milo I can't sleep. Tell me again about true love.
Well one day, when you least expect it, the right girl will come into your life, and everything will be
ok. And we will buy that ranch that we always talk about...
Have you ever tried to make a brand new start?
It's introduction to a broken heart
Forever and a day
Is all I ever wanted, baby
To figure out a way
To finish what I started
Especially the thing that happened when I started with you
You taught me to fly and you taught me to fall
But after all
You'll be teaching me the hardest lesson of all
Introduction to loving and leaving
Begging and pleading
Anything to get you to stay
Just when you found forever
Start to feel better
'Cause everything is going your way
All at once your world falls apart
You learn the art
Introduction to a broken heart
I've been through it before
There's never any consolation
Now and then
Someone you adore
Turns happiness to desperation
Blink and when you open your eyes
It's all fallen apart
You told me to climb and to never look down
But somehow
You never told me 'bout the part where I crash to the ground
Introduction to loving and leaving
Begging and pleading
Anything to get you to stay
Just when you found forever
Start to feel better
'Cause everything is going your way
All at once your world falls apart
You learn the art
Introduction to a broken heart
Take my picture off of your wall
Drop my jacket off in the hall
Don't try to call me I will not answer
Best plans of women and men
Casually crumble and fall
ha ha ha ha
And all at once your world falls apart
You learn the art
Introduction to a broken heart
Ba ba ba ba

I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I've got this little problem that I cannot control
You put my heart in jail but now it's on parole
You thought that you had left me alone in the rain
But I saw you and my dead heart started up again
I do not wa-wa-wa-wa-want you
I do not nee-nee-nee-nee-need you
I just like the way you walk
The way you move
The way you talk
Oh yeah
And I can't let go
Infatuation's got a hold on me
A midnight flight to insecurity
And I can't let go
And she's making me lose my grip on reality
Infa-fa-fatuation
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
You said that you loved me but that was long ago
And if I asked you out again would you still say no
Is your heart filled up with ice is your glare still cold
Or have you changed your mind since then filled it up with gold
I do not wa-wa-wa-wa-want you
I do not nee-nee-nee-nee-need you
I just like the way you walk
The way you move
The way you talk
Oh yeah
And I can't let go
Infatuation's got a hold on me
A midnight flight to insecurity
And I can't let go
And she's making me lose my grip on reality
Infa-fa-fatuation
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
I-N-F-A-T-U-A-T-I-O-N
Because you doesn't mean I cannot
Don't cast my heart way cos it's all that I've got
I've got this little problem that I cannot control
You put my heart in jail now it's on parole
I do not wa-wa-wa-wa-want you
I do not nee-nee-nee-nee-need you
I just like the way you walk
The way you move
The way you talk
Oh yeah
And I can't let it
And I can't let it
And I can't let go
Infatuation's got a hold on me
Infa-fa-fatuation
A midnight flight to insecurity
And I can't let go
Infatuation's got a hold on me
Infa-fa-fatuation

And I've got to let you know
If you're ready I'm ready for you baby
I'll be hanging on
I want to be loved just like everyone I know
I want to be home
Tired of being so alone
And everybody thinks I'm so strong
Baby living this life alone
But don't you think that I could be lonely
Somebody fill this empty hole
I don't want it
I don't need it
I think I feel it again
I want to be loved just like everyone I know
I want to be home
Tired of being so alone
And everybody thinks it's so easy
Fool me with feelings never changed
But try to let me search for a reason
We'll wake up and start a brand new day
Don't wanna hear about it
I've got myself
Don't wanna feel it again
I want to be loved just like everyone I know
I want to be home
Tired of being so alone
And everybody thinks I'm so strong
Baby living this life alone
But don't you think that I could be lonely
I know that lately I've been kinda into myself
And I let things slide just a little too much
Every once in a while I'll be telling you that I love you
I know you think I've put our precious love on the shelf
But I feel your tears and I miss your touch
Too much time has gone by and I feel like I'm ready to show you
I'll make it up to you
Oh yeah
Just listen to the words I say
How beautiful it is to love you all the time
How beautiful it is to know that you are mine
It's been so long
Since I've told you
Since you came along
You came up
It was beautiful
Sha la la la la la la la la la la
You think that maybe I've been looking somewhere else
For the love we had when the feeling was fresh
Maybe something has died and I don't have the heart to tell you
I know you know I'd never do a thing like that
Cos the love we have is much deeper than that
And my heart came alive when I started to get to know you
I'll make it up to you
Oh yeah
Just listen to the words I say
How beautiful it is to love you all the time
How beautiful it is to know that you are mine
It's been so long
Since I've told you
Since you came along
You came up
It was beautiful
Sha la la la la la la la la la la
I never wanted anybody else but you
And now I know exactly what I've gotta do
I will shout it out
How beautiful it is to love you all the time
How beautiful it is to know that you are mine
It's been so long
Since I've told you
Since you came along
You came up
It was beautiful
Beautiful to love you all the time
I saw you standing there
I've seen your face before
You don't know who I am
But I could give you more
You're laughing with your friends
You tell them you're in love
But you're not fooling me
The joke is on yourself
It's a cruel cruel world
When you're on your own
It's a cold cold heart
That could turn you down
It's a cruel cruel world
When you're on your own
If you need a friend
I could be the one
But you don't know me
Not at all
I looked for you today
You're nowhere to be found
I wonder if you're okay
There's something going round
Maybe you moved away
You looked a little down
When I saw you last Sunday
When I didn't make a sound
It's a cruel cruel world
When you're on your own
It's a cold cold heart
That could turn you down
It's a cruel cruel world
When you're on your own
If you need a friend
I could be the one
But you don't know me
[Madrox:]
Tell me something good like Rufus an Chaka Khan
Although haters want us to fear we keep on keepen it on
Hot water and hell n not a second befor dawn
Ya jus needa amp up the pace because the spotlights on
Hey Man, they say I often preach
Spit it like a wicked evangelist so only the chosen will understand this
To complex for one dementional minds
I'm the monsta in make-up who wake up n get high
Becuse in my own life I'm blessed with sorrow n pain
And the occacinal happy day to keep from being mondane
I'm insane like my armáda and the killers I roll with
Pandora's box was never ment to be open
Close caption, my want is take action and hit em when there asleep or just relaxen
Never see it comeing
Prozak started up the death machine and I'm riden in the frunt seat with so much blood coveren me
[Chorus:]
In here, this dark is where I am.
I don't know where I am.
I'm slowly fading...
And it's here, this darkness is where I stay.
If I can't find my way
It's where I'm staying...
[Prozak:]
Sometimes I feel so down and depressed
Sometimes I feel that the weight of the whole world sits on my chest
Sometimes at night I try to sleep but then I can't katch my breath
Sometimes I try and cope with stress feeling that there ain't nothing left, put to rest.
Man, I started rappen wicked about a decade ago
I was destend to bring darkness to records and microphones
You can hate this if you want but I'm going still call this home
Fucken mainstreem radio play the wicked we walk alone
Never intended for the weak minds to understand or except this
Don't add up another sitistic
Devils reject it
Test it and what going to find is this shits true
That the sloghterings we supply will devistate you
Going to desecrate you
Never did trust you'
That's okay that you don't like us because we fucking hate you
So I ryhme in the view of sycotic, morphed, and balistic
When ya'll should be on Prozak because mainstream minds are twisted
[Chorus:]
In here, this dark is where I am.
I don't know where I am.
I'm slowly fading...
And it's here, this darkness is where I stay.
If I can't find my way
It's where I'm staying...
[Monoxcide:]
I'm a maniac by trade
Raised by public enemy number one by tearing domes out the game
And id be careful because every word that you say
Is another way for people to imulate you everyday
And then hate it in everyway
And when you face with it, it's on some hater shit
Catered to that mainstream bitch n get some play with it
I'm stright with it
I'm wickedest when I'm sittin here with this pen
And it's given me the grin, even like the purest of sin
And if I let it loose with a bottle of grey goose
By the time the cops come I'll be firen on them to
And you can hear the thunder now, I'm underground
You wonder how I've never been found
Even with the wickedest sound I hover around
My fingers up in your face
And all you weak ass sell outs ain't nothing more than motherfucken disgraces
And I'm hideing from all the faces who dominantly want to take from the mind
Of something so twiztid but I turn them away
[Chorus:]
In here, this dark is where I am.
I don't know where I am.
I'm slowly fading...
And it's here, this darkness is where I stay.
If I can't find my way
[Prayer]
I can't believe this is you, after everything we've gone through just look at you and what
You been reduced to artificial life a respirator they've been working on you all night it's
In the paper how you tried to take yourself out a bottle of pills and when they found you
You were passed out, I wonder still as ya died did ya have doubts when they revived
You you were screaming with yer hands out straight from hell express route I see ya laying
In this bed now with machines and I.v.'s god please just wanna rip them out but I can't
Cause if I do you will do damn it's hard to stand beside you as I see you and your family cry
Don't know where we go
When this life spins outta control
When it gets dark & it turns cold
And ya feelin like don't nobody know
That yer all alone
Now yer body shaking I can see the demons over in the corner waiting salivating
Waiting for you to crossover the threshold of mortality and deaths border close my
Eyes and hold yer hand now it's getting colder knew you were upset depressed
And some what bi polar I tried to warn you but as usual you wouldn't listen ya face
Is pale ya bodies numb and now ya tears glisten on a mission to self destruct but
Now ya wishing for the regret and blind hope and false intuition ya try and try to
Hold on but there's nothin left knowin each and everyone could be ya last breath
That takes ya to ya final rest
Don't know where we go
When this life spins outta control
When it gets dark & it turns cold
And ya feelin like don't nobody know
Glad ya all alone
Time to pull the plug and then it's through the last rites, words and final hugs ya feel
The tears drip on you and you feel a tug for the very first time you finally feelin love
It's too late comatose and Catatonic state surprise in ya eyes wide ya fufill ya fate
Eternally damned and dropped off in front of hells gates ya mind, body, and soul
Shall now disintegrate as all the demons celebrate.
[Intro: Twista]
Yeah
And the question is why
Prozzak, Saganow what up
Tech N9ne, Kansas City what up
Twista, Chi-Town what up
And we do it like this
[Verse 1: Prozzak]
How can somebody explain to me
Why we been followed by evil for so many centuries
Locked in prison the world is a penitentiry
Such a catastrophe and it follows our destiny
But crack head mothers and fathers are beating their children
Suicide bombers are crashing our planes into buildings
While H.I.V. is spreadin and killin off millions
And down in New Orleans there's several a bandend civilians
There spillin the bood of other people for barrels of oil
The bodies are burning and scattered all over the soil
Feeling the tension as tempers and temperatures boil
Strikin the soul is a serpent that rattles and coils
God, tell me what has now become of us
Shame on us for becoming a race so dangerous
And even with hate in us
You never did stray from us
Instead of forsaken us
You have forgaven us
Why?
[Chorus:]
Why?
Why does the devil be callin' my name
Why?
Testin' my faith with his devilish games
Why?
Feeling insane as I was in the brain
Why oh Why?
Followed by darkness you fear them then blow
Why?
Circle above me you see the black crows
Why?
Father forgive me you reep what you sow
Why oh Why?
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
Do we get off on the fact that our governments fuckin' Iraq from the back
And we know that they hid this from us and our family?
Why do we gamble with givers of grief
And I'm wondering why do we live in the dark and my life's not fa la la la la la
Momma be askin' me, do you believe in this
Bitches be askin' me, don't you wanna peep in this
Niggas be askin' me, do you put pussy on a pedestal
Pimpin' you probly should put money first cause you weak in this
Why's this shit draggin'
Why does everybody know to operate a fully automatic
And nobody with the lovein' of one another but it's givin us a little bit of light up in the hell of it
Everybody livin in polygomy you givin me but ain't nobody celibate
So the question we askin' is Why?
Are we the wickedness when is the trip of the sickest the fly
Look at the blood and the tears and the piss and the shit in yo eye
God will be back any day any second so wait for the day that He's free and we die
[Chorus:]
Why?
Why does the devil be callin' my name
Why?
Testin' my faith with his devilish games
Why?
Feeling insane as I was in the brain
Why oh Why?
Followed by darkness you fear them then blow
Why?
Circle above me you see the black crows
Why?
Father forgive me you reep what you sow
Why oh Why?
[Verse 3: Twista]
Could you tell me why would he ever show mercy these days
Why?
Just look at the world we be cursin the earth with these plagues
Why?
Somtimes I feel evil as if it's the birth of the worst
And the Earth needs emergency sergury all of this hurt can be raised.
How?
Turn us into demons that's that's screamin I'm dreamin that even the devil was special before he got fallin from grace
Why do we murder
But God Won't abandon his beautiful and children even though his babys will bust a 380 all in your face
Why do we kill
Gotta hit him in the body with a bullet will you pull it but he never look a brother see you'll love us even if he didn't feel us to the fullest
Please tell me Why?
How you love us even though we gotta hurt eachother even our brother or the mother I don't feel it on the realest you can put it any way you wanna put it
Why?
Even through the terror on the planet you can still find love
Why?
Even through the torture and the murder you can still find love
Well if you try to be a rapper on a level of the devil we get buried with the shovel and be cast outta heaven so in hell we can still wind up
[Chorus:]
Why?
Why does the devil be callin' my name
Why?
Testin' my faith with his devilish games
Why?
Feeling insane as I was in the brain
Why oh Why?
Followed by darkness you fear them then blow
Why?
Circle above me you see the black crows
Why?
Father forgive me you reep what you sow
Why oh Why?
[Outro:]
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why-y-y-y oh-h-h-h why?
Why?
Why?
Why?
[Big Krizz Kaliko:]
It's been a long time coming
And we stop singing We Shall Overcome and negro spirituals, we are no longer humming
Just what are we becoming?
It pulls a piece of life up out of me
That for little or nothing you willin to battle me
And actually it's not an act
We unruly, shootin up schools, doin the fool, we got a knack
I been carryin guns since I was knee high
Till it all stopped, I stoped and now I'm watchin all my dogs die
This is the beginning of armageddon
We get high regardless, we Godless so how high are we gettin?
And we stay iced out in this land we on
See errantly on you, losin your arm over the diamond
Try em on, here go my shoes
Now check the ways of racism and be the first one singin the blues
Gods children are on every land we rhyme on
We share the same sky and gotta die, that's just what we got in common. Come on
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
[Prozak:]
They say you can not judge a book by it's cover
But it seems somehow we be judgin one another because of cover
Thinkin about the prejudice that plagues the human race
Even in God's grace, the people ain't safe with all this hatin that we face, now check it
They say that Martin Luther King, he had a dream
But a dream is all it was because a race still comes between us
We never did learn, watchin the crosses burn
In his grave he would toss and turn
How many times can he return? Now we must...
Learn to stick together
And whether the stormy weather
We can never survive unless we can coexist together
A nation that is united, but all of it's people divided
No more, we can not hide it, politically tryin to justify it
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
We livin up another storm... can't stop it from movin... hey
We livin up under the rain... can't stop it from fallin down
[Verse 1:]
It's been a decade now I've mastered my craft
Slick quick and sharp as a tack stick like the sex in your back
Perhaps I'm strapped with a gat but best to step the fuck back
Three hundred pounds of the tats
Prepared to stomp your face flat
I'm the reason heathens quit breathing by bleeding from lesions
Leading these demons through killing seasons and leave them grieving
No need in proceeding your begging and pleading
Only appeasing my thirst for blood, I stop when Hell is freezing
The Hitchcock of hip hop, the darkest shit on the block
These haters hate it cause their bitches on jock
I got it on lock, dropped like these empty shells from a Glock
I'm quick ta bullet ya spot and watch your corpse as it rots
[Chorus:]
Going to Hell and they wanna blame me
And your children were pale now they wanna name me
Wanna put me in jail cause I know they hate me
I'm tired I'm tired sick of bullshit
When your life's at an end and you're going crazy
And violence is a trend cause it's what they made me
I'm tired I'm tired sick of bullshit
I'm tired I'm tired sick of bullshit
[Verse 2:]
They try to blame me for school shootings
Disputing freedom of speech, they're saying their minds we are polluting
But what happened to people being responsible for things they did?
Red Lake that reservation yo fuck that kid
This shit ain't suitable for weak minds
Explicit lyrics and deep rhymes, just relax and it will be fine
No need to shoot up your school, no need to act a fool
No need to drown the neighbour bitch inside your swimming pool
No need to slit your wrists to be noticed
But if you must remain focused, slit horizontal and then quote this
I am a bitch, I am so weak, I can not take this life
It ain't my fault I killed myself, in fact I blame this knife
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Sometimes I can't stand it, anti-the-whole-planet
I wish that I could vanish, I know I take for granted
But can you blame me for feeling I'm going crazy
In this world where it is legal to kill a baby inside a lady?
And even worse now this gay shit is a trend
Emo faggots wearing girl pants huh where does it end?
But you're telling me to keep an open mind, shit my mind is open
I think it's your mind flooded from the dicks that you've been smoking
And can anybody tell me what the fuck a metrosexual is?
And what religion's got these preachers out here touching kids?
Nevermind I don't think that it was meant for me to know this
We're going straight to Hell as if you didn't notice
