Waterloo, waterloo, where will you meet your waterloo?
Everybody has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his waterloo
Now ol' Adam was the first in history
With an apple he was tempted and deceived
Just for spite the devil made him take a bite
And that's where ol' Adam met his waterloo
Waterloo
Waterloo
Little General Napoleon of France tried to conquer
All the world but lost his pants
Met defeat known as Bonaparte's retreat
And that's where Napoleon met his waterloo
Waterloo
Waterloo
Waterloo
[Too $hort]
Way too real, Short Dog is just way too real
It's the T Double, some call me $hort
I'm in the house once again from the East to the North
You know the west is the best coast
We got the best beats, we bump the best hoes
Living life way too fast
Start snitching and you might not last
It used to be about old pimps and macks
But now we got the young bucks trying to jack
It's a stick up, put your hands up before you get bucked
Got you for your watch, your link, and your green stuff
Everybody wants to be the man
And when you are, you go straight to the pen
Get rich quick schemes off dope fiends
I know you know what I mean
Making big money, living stoned to the bone
Oakland, California is where we roam
Hitting this corner, that corner, everywhere
Bumping fly young tenders with the real big hair
Sassy nasty, young-ass freaks
Wanna ride in my car and feel the beat
We hit the motel, the head was swell
Baby had back like a big ol' whale
She told all her friends I did her, too
She got dogged like Scooby Doo
Cause in the land of macks we don't play that
You wanna run your mouth, you get pimp-slapped
And you ask me just how I feel
Short Dog's living way too real
I'm living way too real, bitch
Short Dog in the house
Can't help but live real, you know what I mean?
Tell you some shit, though
Been in the game for about 10 years or more
Talking about shit you never did before
You know my macking is cracking, all of the time
24-7 spitting playboy rhymes
I got a serious grind and it sure ain't fake
You slang D, well I'm a slang a gang of tapes
Something funky fresh for you to ride to, fool
Bending corners in the old school
I seen my homie Father Dom and he said "What's up?"
Riding in a Supersport drunk as fuck
And when you see us, the clique is called "The Dangerous Crew"
We wouldn't change it for you, cause the game is true
Some say that the Dog can't rap
But my bank account will prove that
I make G's, so you can see these nuts, hoe
Or get played like dominoes
I used to fuck a bitch from San Jose
Baby liked to freak all kind of ways
She said I was the best, couldn't settle for less
Had my name "Short Dog" tattooed on her chest
After three months I called it quits
She tried to pop that pregnant shit
But like a mack, I suprised her
Dropped her ass off at Kaiser
Never would I let her put a baby on me
I ain't the one, I'm Step Daddy
I had to let her know just how I feel
I'm living way too real
"Don't ever fuck with Too $hort" (scratched 4x)
>From city to city, valley to valley
Never seen another state on hit like Cali-
Fornia, where the hustlers play
What you wouldn't expect happens everyday
It's the Wild Wild West I'm speaking about
Where Clint Eastwood would get socked in the mouth
Cause ain't nobody tripping on ranks or stripes
If you live the life, you gotta pay the price
So many youngsters die over punk shit
Small talk, a lotta dumb shit
And only God knows when you punch the clock
Thought he was bulletproof and got shot
It's either heaven or hell, him or me
Locked in a cell or out on the street
Every day on the ave another brother is killed
For living way too real
[Father Dom]
Well I'm chilling and I'm willing like a villian I be killing
Coke is it but tonight I got the feeling
Cause it's about time for a real mack to step up
Pimping ain't a thing so I swing on these heifers
Never ever feeling no remorse, of couse
If you try to play me out, I'm a punch you in your mouth
And Rin Tin I'll watch his chin just splatter
Caught him with an uppercut, there goes his bladder
My rhymes are fatter cause I said so
I'm gonna recollect a neck, mic wreck check a hoe
I'm making more dough than the average Joe Schmoe
If she's fronting on the pussy then the hoe got to go
Out the back door, don't want to see you no more
You ain't Deep Throat, so what you come here for?
Cause in the nine-tre ain't no lagging or dragging
Bring your ass over, get prepared for the stabbing
Ain't no doubt that's how I feel
I heard you call me, waterwheel
Spin 'round, 'round in a circle
Gracing my child dreams on fantasy hill
Spin 'round, 'round in a circle
Flash, paddles sending a spray to the air
Lately, my thoughts are still with you there
As you spin 'round
'Round in a boyhood daydream, spin 'round
My thoughts are drifting to a quieter time
Spin 'round, 'round in a circle
Green covered slippery water-rocks I used to climb
Spin 'round, 'round in a circle
Father and child walking down by the canyon
Lately, my thoughts are still with them there
As they spin 'round
'Round in a boyhood daydream, spin 'round
Flash, paddles sending a spray to the air
Lately, my thoughts are still with you there
As you spin 'round
This water-wheel keeps turning round
I must have told it a thousands times
There is no point in turning round
I'm on my own
Water-wheel.
This water-wheel who laughs at me
And seems to say scornfully
She's never coming back again
She's gone away
Water-wheel.
INSTRUMENTAL
But water-wheel you know we were
Kind to you and I was kind to her
But still you turn and laugh at me
Why don't you stop
Water-wheel, water-wheel
My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise to love you forever more
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
My my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise you'll love me forever more
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
So how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo, where will you meet your Waterloo?
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
Now ol' Adam was the first in history
With an apple he was tempted and deceived
Just for spite the devil made him take a bite
And that's where ol' Adam met his Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo, where will you meet your Waterloo?
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
Little General Napoleon of France
Tried to conquer the world but lost his pants
Met defeat known as Bonaparte's retreat
And that's when Napoleon met his Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo, where will you meet your Waterloo?
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
Now a feller who's darling proved untrue
Took her life but he lost his too
Now he swings where the little birdie sings
And that's where Tom Dooley met his Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo, where will you meet your Waterloo?
Every puppy has his day, everybody has to pay
My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
(chorus)
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise to love you forever more
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
My my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yes, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose
(chorus)
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
Usher in the rally cries
Revolution's here again
The emperor's bonds are broken
And free he shall remain
Escape though narrow, was demand
While his reign remained in view
This fight for France, till bitter end
He must see it through
Coalition forms of many lands
Against Napoleon, west to east
Dogs of war will take to arms
And soon will be unleashed
Prussian, Russian and Austrian
All follow British lead
At allies' helm is Wellington
Who must make his Foe concede
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be force to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
And you will see your hundred days come to an end
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be forced to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
It lies before you, fate shall befall you
Quickly, the allies gather force
Near the Franco-Belgian line
While 124,000 French
March there in double time
As the battle begins
Napoleon springs his audacious plan
He'll attack them on two fronts
Splitting up his warring Band
As the Prussians sound retreat
Behind they leave 12,000 slain
Most of their force is still in tact
And will live to fight again
Wellington
Who felt the loss of 5,000 men
Would feel more under cannon fire
Bombardment from the French
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be force to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
And you will see your hundred days come to an end
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be forced to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
It lies before you, fate shall befall you
Of all the wars I have waged
To propel my nations might
For this I'll be remembered
From now 'till the end of time
If to the victor go the spoils
I may die an impoverished man
For in the end, irony
Has dealt the cruelest hand
The French Force was swift and sure
But their attack would be repelled
And though their center battered
The Anglo-Dutch line would be held
As fate or skill would have it
An army moves in from the east
The Prussians who slipped out of his hands
Would soon spell his defeat
The French lines now are broken
And being open to attack
The Emperor has no choice
And the Old Guard pulls him back
There were 45,000 wounded or dead
When the fight was finally through
On a three square mile battlefield
At a town named Waterloo
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be force to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
And you will see your hundred days come to an end
Foreshadowed man of destiny
Soon you will be forced to see
Nations aligning against you
Marking the time your reign is through
When the taxis gather in mock Solemnity
Funeral hearses court the death of virginity
Was it paradise lost or paradise found?
Did we gain respect or were we holding ground?
You had found true love, or so you believed
And the wide boys tattooed your hearts upon their sleeves
So when you think it's time to go
When you think it's time to go
Don't be surprised, the heroes never show
And the patter merchants selling false impressions
Tipping eyes at the waitress with American expressions
Tie angels to the bar with sweet Martini's and their charms
They're lying on every word and every arm
They're turning down their noses to the best lines
And the cheap wines
And the wide boys
Waterloo, Waterloo
Where will you meet your Waterloo?
Everybody has his day everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
Now old Adam was the first in history
With an apple he was tempted and deceived
Just for spite old Satan made him take a bite
And that's where old Adam met his Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo
Where will you meet your Waterloo?
Everybody has his day everybody has to pay
Everybody has to meet his Waterloo
Little General Napoleon of France
Tried to conquer the world but lost his pants
Met defeat known as Bonaparte's retreat
And that's where Napoleon met his Waterloo
Waterloo, Waterloo
Where will you meet your Waterloo?
Everybody has his day everybody has to pay
I'm sure
Allow me
Please
Get help
Only in your note
Only listen
Where are you going
Oh, the song would
Whose mousse
Sell our little home
That's what I'm saying
It's almost right
It's a loved one
It's oh, so hard
You should go home
Through the pain
Sure
Bravo
Please
Please
Pull
Only the lonely
Sell some
Sell our minnow
Suppose he can
If we aren't home
So come over
So sleep
It's so hard
It's also ugly
Leveled home
Bricks so
I followed the night till the morning sunlight
And I thought of the changing times
And I followed the child with the evergreen smile
And the blue broken tears start to cry
Blue broken tears hide away the years
Misty highway seems colder today
And I saw a Waterlow where the evergreen grows
And the wise man knows why he crys
And I heard a child call me away from this all
And the blue broken tears start to rise
Blue broken tears ain't nobody here
Lost in the sun my only young one
Blue broken tears our love disappears
You were sitting in a black limousine,
Dressed like a model in a fancy magazine.
I sat there and you trusted to look,
I pretended I was reading my book.
At once you said, `Now come on, let's dance.'
I said no and you missed your chance.
Now you, you, you found your Waterloo.
You, you, you found your Waterloo.
We met on the party of the embassy,
You came over and got a drink for me.
I accepted with a tender love,
For you that smile was more than enough.
At once you said, `Now come on, let's dance.'
I said no and you missed your chance.
Now you, you, you found your Waterloo.
You, you, you found your Waterloo.
Hey na now.
Hey na now.
Hey na now.
Hey, hey na now.
Hey now.
Hey, hey now.
Hey now.
Hey na now.
Hey na now.
Hey na now.
Hey na now.
Hey now.
Hey, hey now.

[Bun B]

too real for most of you lames
too raw to be in this rap shit and the streets is the same
too throwed off in this game too true to my hood
I'm too down to get down so lets get it understood
too bad to be good too golden not glisten
too focused for fuck boys to fuck off my mission
too smart not to listen when g's pull my coat
bout them white folks that's listenin and watchin' my boat
that's real shit you can quote I'm too gangsta too street
so don't run up too fast cuz I'm too strapped with that heat
I'm too dirty to be me too gorilla to be monkey
too fly to stay grounded too fresh to be funky
too many licks for junkies, too much work for flippers
too much dro for smokers, too much amp for dippers
no need for you to trip cuz we bring to much drama
got too many killas put that on my mamma
I'm too trill
[Z-Ro - Hook]
Iiiiii'm too trill, too, too too real
all about my dolla bills and even if I tried
I could never fall off too much money on my mind
IiiiiI'm too trill too, too, too, real
hard as penetentiary steel it's simple and plain
If I retired you young'uns wouldn't know what to do with the game
[Bun B]
and I'm too serious for this play playin' it's too much bread to make
for me too fuck of my time with these cats that's too fake
I done seen too many wakes, sent too many to them
yo homeboy can get it I'm to ready to do him
too many guns I can pull, too many slugs I can bust
leave yo brain matter, bone fragments, and dick up in the dust
too many niggas I done crushed to let yo bitch ass come try me

and they too ready to fold cuz they can't take too much pressure

It's rap-a-lot for life we done been here too long
to let these hata's bring us down we too right they too wrong
I'm too black and too strong to go out like a punk
too ready for the ruckus too close too my trunk
we can pop or we can jump we can blast or we can go
from the shoulders bitch I tried to told you but if you ain't kno
Press skin into skin,
just a fraction to gather the senses.
Still locking in mine, design,
just a scrape to uncover the evidence.
You won't remove me, not anymore.
So here we are, now it's obvious.
Candle lit to divide all your areas.
And inside all your barriers,
I'm defending my lines to ignite...
And I'll be this way forever.
Inside the locks hide,
so my faith can come outside and shine.
Besides it's why all these miles of road won't divide.
You won't remove me, not anymore.
And now it's where the secret's pushed behind,
with the lanterns to burn this inside.
And up there A SNOW-CAPPED ROMANCE where,
everything we build will come from our eyes...
And I'll be this way forever.
Away
Away
Away
Listen
[VERSE 1 - Sisqo]
We started out together on a love journey
We said we would be together to the very end
Ain't nobody ever made love like we did (Oh Yea)
I must admit we had something special
Almost perfect some things we couldn't let go
You did yo dirt, girl
I did mine too
Now you want me gone away (so)
[BRIDGE]
So easy making mistakes
All broken down, beyond repair (uhh)
With being selfish
It had our selveless
Now it's better that we go away
[CHORUS - Dru Hill]
Away
Never thought that we would be apart (Away)
And even with broken hearts
How did we let our love get away
How could I love give (Away)
What ever happen to your yesterday(Away)
Never thought we would let it get away
Our future we had faded
Away, away, away
[VERSE 2 - Sisqo]
It's so ugly in the equation
That for each other had changed to us hurting
No more vacation
No more celebrations
Not even anniversaries
Joint accounts closed, moving out slow
No more late night walks after making love
It's just fading out (It's just fading out)
It's just faidng out (woa)
[CHORUS (REPEAT) - Dru Hill]
[Talking - Nokio]
The first time I ever saw you girl
Is the day I really started believing that there were a GOD in heaven (Mmmm)
Why would he take you away (Oh why, why, oh why)
[Repeat 3X]
Away
Away
Away
My, my at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender, oh yeah
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way.
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself.
Refrain
Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war.
Waterloo, promise to love you forever more.
Waterloo, couldn't resist if I wanted to.
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you.
Wa-wa-wa-wa-Waterloo,
Finally facing my Waterloo.
My, my I tried to hold you back
But you were stronger, oh yeah
And now it seems my only chance is givin' up the fight.
And how could I ever refuse,
I feel like I win when I lose.
Refrain
So how could I ever refuse,
I feel like I win when I lose.
A pale yellow morning moon
Hung over, over the workaholics on the streets of rain
And high up in a window box
Were blue forget-me-nots right here
On the northern line
Waterloo
You can hear the trains pulling out
From the world inside your room
You said if we start running
We could run forever
I can hear the trains pulling out
Ten flights up
In a tower block heaven
With half a return ticket in my pocket
And memories of all the same sad souvenirs
And the beating of the rain
In patterns of the same old pain
I shared with you
And I tried to tell it rue
But I don't hear you
Waterloo
You can hear the trains pulling out
From the world inside your room
You said if we start running
We could run forever
I can hear the trains pulling out
Hear the trains
Pulling out
Just siin napoleongi
viimaks alla andis
ja nii ka mindgi pandi
saatusega seisma silmitsi
on korduma loodud kik see
mis kunagi olnud me teel
Wateroo lahingu vitsid ma la sain
waterloo igavest armastust totan vaid
waterloo joosta su eest nis nii vimatu
wateloo soovides olla vaid sulle truu
waterloo mu ellu tid vitluse waterloo
Oo jaa sind hoida
pdsin endale kuid thja

waterloo- alting knns rtt, och det r

wa, wa, wa, wa waterloo-

Five brothers who left Arkansas
Set out to find the gambler
Who murdered their pa
Five brothers and three in their teens
Gotta find the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
They heard of him in Houston
And his trail was leadin' west
He'd left there many months ago
And so they couldn't rest
Five brothers and three in their teens
Gotta find the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
New Orleans
The sun was hot as fire
And the nights were cold as steel
Hate was strong and youth was wild
And so they couldn't feel
Five brothers and three in their teens
Gotta find the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
His trail led to the Badlands
And the desert promised death
The gambler's odds were different now
He treasured every breath
Five brothers and three in their teens
Close behind the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
New Orleans
When first they saw the killer
He was by the waterhole
Five rifles rang out through the night
They killed the gambler cold
Five brothers and three in their teens
Finally got the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
The desert is their keeper now
For this a traveler said
That poison lived within the hole
Now six of them are dead
Five brothers and three in their teens
Lay beside the man
Who killed their pa in New Orleans
Lay beside the man
I know when you go home you sit beside the fire
I know you pace your room hide your face and feel tired
Console yourself with artefacts spark old desire
And close the chapter of your life choked on the fire
I thought of you today you got to feel love to feel real pain
Why wont you give a little love to me visit me in my dreams and haunt me
Give a little nudge to me
You stalk the shadows of my heart so we shall never be apart
Alone you wake it dawns feels like your dreams a liar
I know you stop yourself returning leave behind now
Reality was stirred
Like a fog inhaled at the fringe of the eyesight
Coalescent just long enough for the rapture
He is no longer alone
Gifted with a costly talent
Chosen to perpetuate the old craft
A forced farewell for the youth
Meet the Henchmen, before whose path walls dissolve
Gone gathering words and a little scare in its prime
Coven hived within mountains like termites in wood
Alcove bound carnations in wait
The static regimen
Taken away from infancy
The static regimen
Non corporal drill to walk the other side
The static regimen
The egregore's achieved
Whence just promising pupils
A vocation stirred awake
A hand came from out of life
As if dragged across the mirror
Remembrances of an old self
Like guide slopes in the descent to carnation
The routine of the scare
A training attuned with millennia
The mission ends as feelings return...
The ectoplasm dispersed, the egregore vanished
Subliminate long enough to play the pawns
The ectoplasm dispersed, the egregore vanished
