Good memories of time gone by
Sweet friendships that never die
Will always be there when you grow tired
Don't swim against the currect
Because your arms will grow tired
Just float there and let the water pass the time
Cus' you never know what life throws at you
So don't tell me that you know the secret
Cus' you don't know me and I don't know you
Yeah, I'll tell you when I get there
And if I knew, I'd be lying too
Well preachers preach and liars lie
Burglars steal and smokers get high
They're not better or worse than you or I
Ya don't swim against the current
Because your arms will grow tired
Just float there and let the water pass the time
Cus' you never know what life throws at you
So don't tell me that you know the secret
Cus' you don't know me and I don't know you
Yeah, I'll tell you when I get there
And if I knew, well I'd be lying too
And don't give up on anything
Cus' I need you around here for a while
And don't give in to anything
Just forget about it out and smile
It's been two years since he's gone
I write these words
I sing this song
Some preacher says he knows what's going on
Cus' you never know what life throws at you
Yea don't tell me that you know some secret
Cus' you don't know me and I don't know you
Yeah, I'll tell you when I get there
Well if I knew, I'd be lying too
I'd be lying too
I'd be lying too

Counting clocks in my head and time slips bye
No words left to be said and wonder why
You're not here with me now, so I wonder when
Our eyes meet again would it need to be said
I need you
Nothing seems the same without you here
And the little things in life don't seem as clear
The smell of your sweet perfume still jumps in my room
So easy on me write these words for you
I wonder if this could be something you and me
Could work out and make it last a while
I want to be something you and me
Could always look back on and smile
As I lay alone I think of times
Like when you laugh with me and it gets me by
Well you're not here with me now, so I wonder when
Our eyes meet again would it need to be said
I wonder if this could be something you and me
Could work out and make it last a while
I want to be something you and me
Could always look back on and smile
Yeah and smile
I want you here
These words so clear
This world don't care
Another day is coming
I want you here
These words so clear
This world don't care
Another day is coming
I want you here
These words so clear
This world don't care
Another day is coming
I want you here
These words so clear
This world don't care

Shades of grey things you left behind
Cloud your mind toss and turn at night
Rain falls down deep within your veins
Fill your soul up with different shades of grey
Shades of grey
Shades of grey
Cus' I like the summer time
The fresh air with the bees outside
Cus' it makes me feel alright
And when darkness falls you look up and you see it all
We're all just different
We're all just different
Shades of Grey
Shades of Grey
So baby dry your eyes
Cus' I guarantee the sun will rise
Forget about all your pain
Cus' we're all just different
We're all just different shades of grey
Shades of grey
Cus' I like the summer time
The fresh air with the bees outside
Cus' it makes me feel alright
And when darkness falls you look up and you see it all
We're all just different
We're all just different
Shades of Grey
Shades of Grey
Shades of Grey
Cus' I like your damn good looks and your smile

Little boy peddles his way
Through the tallest grass he can find today says
I can be taller than the tallest tree
If I can only find my way through this place
Little boy it catches his eye
As it floats off up into the sky says
Wonder when it will come down again
So I’ll climb on up that tree and pull it down for me
Yeah but the view from up here is so very very clear
And I’ll feel the fresh air
Wondering if life could be made for just you and me
Don’t be so greedy
Yeah
A man says hi as he walks on by
And asks what it’s like to touch the sky said
It’s kinda strange cus’ it feels just like another day
So I’ll climb on down this tree and go back to being me
Yeah but the view from up here is so very very clear
And I’ll feel the fresh air
Wondering if life could be made for just you and me
Don’t be so greedy
Yeah
And you take it all in like some greedy little thing
And you say your prayers, but they leave you without a care
Don’t you see, it’s not you and me
But a world to share

The Best of Both Worlds Here I sit with my legs crossed and wonder why
The world spins around my head from time to time
The best of both worlds seems attainable through my eyes
But sometimes confusion steps in to block the light
Inquiring minds would like to know what takes my time
Just thinking back on days that's past me by
Do you ever wonder why the sun doesn't fall from the sky
And if it did would the world still spin inside my mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your eyes
Just walking by this old tree says to me
If we cut this baby down could it tell a great story
Of brave men two hundred years gone by
Farmers with pitchforks that were willing to die
City streets and buildings would rise
And freedom would never die
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your eyes
Seems like sixteen thousand years have passed us by
But these old trees leaves grow green yet another time
And millions of people may walk on by
And most won't care that this tree tells tells time
Cus they're too tied up in their daily lives
But one day they're gonna realize why this tree tells time
Why this tree tells time
Why this tree tells time
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your mind
Would you like to see the best of both worlds with me
Just open your eyes
Open your eyes

Here's a sad story from a kid with a messed up home
He's got no parents and he's all stoned
He passes each day by smoking weed from time to time
Cus' it makes him feel alright
Let me tell you bout' his friend Jim
He lights him up and grins
It makes him smile all day long
He's got time on his side but he sits on his behind
He starts it over and sings this song
Sammy please come out and sing with me
You seem occupied with nothing on your mind
How bout' you get up that chair go and see the light
That there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing from this style of life
How bout' you start with a fresh shave
Maybe shower from day to day
Cus' it'll make you feel alright
And about your friend Jim how bout' you leave him
Until you find your way
Sammy please come out and dance with me
You seem occupied with nothing on your mind
How bout' you get up that chair go and see the light
That there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing from this style of life
Oh my God what is this
It appears as if
Sammy's found his way
But just remember when bad things happen
You don't lose your way
Sammy please come out and sing with me
You seem occupied with nothing on your mind
How bout' you get up that chair go and see the light
That there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing from this style of life
Sammy please how bout' you sing with me
Sammy please
I like when you talk to me
I like when you talk to me

I got these crazy dreams
Where everyhings chasing me
There is no place to run or hide
So I get in my car and drive
Do you ever wish things could be different for a day
Perhaps a day when everything goes your way for a change

She puts the windows down and starts to frown
She won’t smile, no not one bit
She thinks that life’s all sad, so she lives mad
She wonders how’d it get so bad
She looks out the window at the pouring rain
Wondering how it got this way
No time to stop or think or contemplate
What will become of this day because
She needs something to make her sing
Like a nice bright sunny day
Perhaps a day when things will go her way
Would this be nice to say
To say yeah
To say run away
Run away, run away, run away
One time, two times, she counts in her mind
And twiddles her thumbs for a bit
She’s tired of life and all of this
Who needs this shit because
She needs something to make her sing
Like a nice bright sunny day
Perhaps a day when things will go her way
Would it be nice to say
To say yeah
To say run away
Run away, run away, run away, run away
Do you remember when you could paint the sky
With those dreams inside your mind
And fill the darkest place
With half your smile tied behind your face
To make it even for a while
And then you’d sing this song, and you’ll think of me
And it will make you feel happy
And then you won’t decide to run away

Keep missing the day
Time's un-noticed clock on the wall's unchanged
I keep wishing away
But time slips by this drifters dream today
It’s six am it’s time again
The morning fog makes breakfast in my bed
Sweet memories of this drifters dream
Creep up inside and say hi to me
Well you’re not here, I’ll see you soon
And until then time will stand still
And in your arms I’ll fall asleep
Until this drifters dream’s complete
Stay with me
And please don’t leave
Yeah, I feel like I could scream
Remembering times when we were just friends
All the dinner dates and nights real late
Would add up to one big headache
Yeah in the end we’re not just friends
And hope to stay together til’ the end
Stay with me
And please don’t leave
Yeah, I feel like I could scream
Remembering times I would walk on by
You would sit and barely notice me
Well consider this song
My way of helping us move along
I cannot speak
I cannot speak

I'm tired I'm tired of all these games
The games they play when they think it's ok
Ready or not here I come this hide and seek it isn't fun...yeah
All we needed was some time
To breathe
All we needed was some time
To see
Hey there Mr. Nice guy can you spare a penny or two
See I lost my job and I've got nothing to do
So I walk these streets and I'll beg through this town
And I hope to God it changes soon cus' I'm going down
I'm going down
All we needed was some time
To breathe
All we needed was some time
To see
I'm running away
Cus' I wanted to yesterday
I'm running away
Right back to you
Here I am with my arms open wide I open the door and I walk inside
But there's no one there for my blue eyes to see
Cus' everyone ran away from my dream

Let me tell you what's on my mind
I got this girl with those pretty brown eyes
They are the kind that hypnotize
But they'll only let you carry out what's on her mind
She don't care what you say
She'll tell you what you want to hear
She'll lie to you like the red devil is flowing through her veins
But those brown eyes will say to you
How about you come out and play
Brown eyed girl yea won't you see that
A dozen flowers from me
Is more than you'll ever see
A glass of wine some dinner to and
You'd like to think that she'd like to
Come and dance with me
But in the end you've lost a friend
So carry on until when
Our eyes will meet again and you hypnotize me
Remember the things you said
Like I talked about you to my parents
Or do you remember when you said
If I didn't get to see you I wasn't gonna be able to go to bed
Brown eyed girl yea won't you see that
A dozen flowers from me
Is more than you'll ever see
A glass of wine some dinner to and
You'd like to think that she'd like to
Come and dance with me
But in the end you've lost a friend
So carry on until when
Our eyes will meet again and you hypnotize me
So now that my story is told
Make sure you learn your lesson
For when you grow old
That sometimes the nicest smile
With those pretty brown
Is nothing but the greedy devil
And he's gonna try to hypnotize
She's gonna try to hypnotize

Mr. please can you pour one down for me
Strange faces different places
It's all new to me
Hey there who are you
can you tell me how to get through here
Green bus blue bus
It takes us all around here
Then it came to me as we drank slowly
This place is like no other
So join me please and we'll drink to these
Good nights together
Happy Valley

There you go yea I'll watch you fade away
Like butter on a hot knife
There she goes yea she used to sing to me
From her invisible mic
There you go yea I'll watch her fade away
Into the cold, cloudy, May sky
There she goes yea she used to laugh with me
Now it's just a casual hi
Casual hi
Here I am open up
We'll give this thing a shot of love
Instead we'll watch it slip away
Remember what it used to be
As time slips by apparently
You and I aren't meant to be
There she goes yea she used to look up at me
With those pretty brown speckled eyes
There she goes yea she used to walk with me
Down the sandy moon lit beach
There you go yea I'll watch you fade away
But this songs about to play
Here I am open up
We'll give this thing a shot of love
Instead we'll watch it slip away
Remember what it used to be
As time slips by apparently
You and I aren't meant to be
Kristen is a nice girl always making my world
Something really bigger, something really better when it's not
Kristen is a nice girl always making my world
Something really bigger, something really better when it's not
Kristen was a nice girl always made my world
Something really bigger, something really better when it's not
Kristen was a nice girl always made my world
Something really bigger, something really better when it's not
When it's not
Here I am open up
We'll give this thing a shot of love
Instead we'll watch it slip away
How about you dance with me
A bomb of love it would be

She carries a tiny man in her pocket
To help her keep things in place
The pitter patter on the windowsill
Sunrise, sunset, yet she remains the same
Maybe you should get out for a while
Just watch it cus’ you’ll smile
Instead you elect to stay inside
Where the green grass dies and will always cloud your mind
Cloud your mind
I remember days gone by
When you used to occupy your time
With positive vibes
So when a new dawn comes early
How about you fill up your soul for me
Instead of wasting all your time
Wasting all your time
She carries a picture of her best friend
It reminds her of days gone by
She says I pray to Jesus almost every night
But here I sit and wonder why
The big man in the sky don’t change my life
So I play guitar for her
In hopes that maybe it will give her a start
Give her some start
I remember days gone by
When you used to occupy your time
With positive vibes
So when a new dawn comes early
How about you fill up your soul for me
Instead of wasting all your time
Wasting all your time
Yeah you never did
You never did
You never did
Yeah you never did
You never did
You never did
Open up your world to me
Yeah I will sing you happy
I make you light up
Light up, light up, light up
Light up, light up, light up
Light up, light up, light up
Well light up
Yeah my love
She carries a tiny man in her pocket

Late June afternoon with the sun outside
Got the windows down and I'm cruising at 55
Then I look out the window and what do I see
There's a crazy man and he's looking at me
But he says not a word as I drive by
And he fades away into the June sky
Remembering times when it was a simple life
When the biggest question was should I pack or should I buy
But those days have passed us by my friends
But these memories still jump around in my head
If I had a dime for all the times
That these silly dreams made me drive 55
Stupid dreams of time that's gone by
Why can't I kick them out of my life
They cry for ten cents even a penny a soul
But paying for sins will leave a poor man cold
Strange it seems how fast the time slips by
If you owned that special clock would it make you change your life
Or would you let the dreams still steal me away
Make you drive at night just to get away
Then that crazy man who looked me right on by
Would make me realize that was my old life

Yeah
What?

Ah yeah, it's Paula P and Premier
We risin out the cuts, what? Jealous eyes wanna stare
Who cares, I double-dare
Fulton [Name], pay a fare when you're comin through
Everyday I get saluted by gods on the boulevard
In my mind I know it's hard
So I'm tryin to build somethin up
Throw the dice, raise the dank up
I take a bitch back in the days when we had cars we used to crank up
Smack em up, smell the coffee
Get up off me, chick, I'm on top of this, please
Assessing needs on bonds at Mickey D's
( ? ) like nines, scarred as knees
More than a woman like the Bee Gees
But I still squeeze these
Hollow heads for hard heads, I shock a
Bitch and have her wig lookin like Chaka
Khan, word is bond, napalm bombs
We drop up in your lawn
[CHORUS]
Extra, extra, read the headlines
We plantin landmines, we get up in that ass anytime
You better ask somebody, young Gottis
Fast hotties, what what, we in your lobby
Extra, extra, read the headlines
We plantin landmines, we get up in that ass anytime
You better ask somebody, young Gottis
Fast hotties, wanted posters in the lobby
[VERSE 2: Paula Perry]
Yeah, check the inside edition, Premier
Strap em to the chair
We gon'make em listen, I hold your ears
Hostage, let's get it on
Top story shit, Fox Five [?]
I can see it now, you're home alone
Check it, I'm on your fire escape
Lookin at you - check, I got the ductape - check
I got the apple bout to grab you up from the back of your [?]
I thrive for that surprised look knowin you're shook
Touch tone sudden off the hook
Brooknam, ghetto design, close the book
We hit the cement in Lugz, niggas that wear Boss
Claimin to be thugs and chicks that's gossippin too much
I hold a grudge, what?
Tug of war, prepare for the mug, what
P Perry, Sister Sledge gettin down and dirty over your head
Ain't nothin y'all can do, I'm here, I swear
Everytime you hear somethin I drop make sure your hear it clear
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 3: Paula Perry]
It's my prerogative like Bobby Brown
You get down, I get around like Pac
Y'all sit around and watch
I blow the spot, any spot
The Tunnel, S.O.'s, Vertigo's
Showin love to my Latinos
'98 settin em straight ( ? )
Familiar face in any place we lace
For y'all gamblers y'all thrown a ace
Elaborate my ( ? )
I'm tryin to escalate to the rooftop
I used to sell blue tops
Got credit from the weed spot
From Trini with the dreadlocks
When I'm broke I still smoke a lot
Choke a lot, cool cops gave a bitch props
Only faggots bust shots
While kids be playin hop scotch
In broad day, Fort Knox
Everyday around the way it stay hot
FG too hot for TV
Cats rep for GP
Signed and sealed, done deal
What's real is real
[CHORUS]
