Aiyyo
Here's a little story ghetto situation
'Bout a girl I met who had many temptations
She was so fly, get high, well understood
Big-ass big brains and straight out the hood
Aiyyo, I woke up early took a stretch and a yawn
Had a 2 o'clock appointment with this girl name Dawn
She ain't the Avon lady but her beauty was strong
Right before she went to rest she had me singin this song
she must be a special ladyyyyyyyyy
and a very exciting girlllllllllll
I don't know
she had the high-glow's switchin
see her in the club you hear others chicks bitchin
but Dawn quit to bust a bitch ass and shit
see she did 12 months over a ratchet
not no crab shit

finicky thing

near her jewerly box
she play with all the rings
and when she step out the tub its like an ill flick
carmel skin, bath and body works leave the whole room lit
cinnamon candles, sweet side, they on relax mode
paint her toes on the bed slow, watchin me
versace robe on her body, peak, sippin asti (piemonte)
she a perfect 10 in my wildest dreams DAWN
Aiyyo, she gotta be gone
Waitin on my sweet strawbeery pecan rican LaShawn
holdin my taffy down when I'm gone
three fourths of her body always covered with clothes
thats why I'm eatin her candy
and suckin her toes
sweet sexy LaShawn
she got body like whats goin on

I'm not cheatin on her or beatin on her
I spend the weekend on her
we on the block when the bills start creepin on her
she right there when it gets sticky
she strict politic to the vicky's
and a fly aviator the color of sky
god on her side
indian chick with cat eyes
mad respect with the fat thighs
plus her guns for the revolution

yo my girls the bomb
intelligent mind
sky blue louis vetton

it won't be long 'til I'm back to my sweet butter pecan rican LaShawn
Hit me up baby, P.S. Cappadon'
Aiyyo, aiyyo I woke up in the morning still drunk off the Henn
Had a 3'oclock appointment with this girl name Jen
You know Jen from a hundred and ten, she push the Lex Coupe
Part time fashion designer she work for Jet Blue
Pretty young thing, with a body like vida
Ass off the meter, eva medenez look, strut like a diva
Leave her shine fine, blow minds like dimes of a cheeba
She like it from behind, slow grind, sometimes with her feet up
Ms. Bonitta Applebum Bottom, thick as a Roman column
Raw dick it down, love me, even if I'm holdin condoms!
Cause she my bitch, the only cat that I lick
Throwin that ass like Ciara on the top of that whip
Latin decent, velour suit with the cameltoe print
Peppermint flared panties with the garder-belt clips
Tattoo of a small butterfly on her inner thigh
Even at my loneliest times you that Jen will ride...
Whether Jen, Don, or Shawn its the same situation
'Bout a girl I met who had many temptations
She was so fly, get high, well understood
So this is where she stands at night
on this cold avenue of lights
the reds and greens but mostly reds
for you he's stopping
In seeing him she knows him less
his stick is wet she's half undressed
and all in all they're both obsessed
with so much nothing
I know it's hard for you to see
what lies behind's a mystery
if words could speak they'd mean even less
when the king is half undressed
She dots her eyes with a smiley face
a work of art in all but taste
the fool deserves the bed he's made
where idiots slumber
divine she is to aire his fate
a crack of smile
through all this hate
means nothing more in this nervous state
of so much nothing
I know it's hard for you to see
The truth behind is misery
if words could speak they'd mean even less
When the king is half undressed
Blue Autumns
Sunshine Kisses
Hearts and Flowers
Broken Wishes
In the breathless hush of 4 a.m.
In the dark sits a sad cliche.
Cloaked in the navy blue of slowly fading stars
Tell me how this came to be
Sleeplessness talk to me
She'd say over and over again
Fumbling through a cut glass vase
Passing lipstick, cotton spools
Burning jealous pictures of marraiges of friends
You never asked to be
The glutton of sympathy
She says over and over again that this is the end
Cause I see it in your eyes
What you don't know, time to let go
I see it in your eyes
There is so much more out there to be learned
Such mournful words on this snowwhite vacant page
All the lessons that she learns she packs away
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy
She writes over and over again
Tossing turning roll away
Indescision won't you ever make up your mind
Lifetime Nightime wake the day
Cause tomorrow will see if you've had your fill of sympathy
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy?
Don't you know the stars are all fading let the sunshine capture
the sparkle of your smile
He writes her a letter
tells her he won't be home soon-she still loves him
he lost his temper
belted his love cross the room--she still loves him
drinks when he's sad
gets happy then mad at the world--she still loves him
never remembers that day in September when wed--she still loves him
So she recalls the days when they were younger
flowers could heal her wounds
but now those days are gone forever
and her pain just fills every room
Faces aglow
as the light from the t.v. show
just separates them now--she still loves him
all they wanted to be was as happy as couple no. 3 on their favorite game show
she still loves him
He recalls the days when they were younger
the future could heal their wounds
but now those days are long since gone forever
now her pain just fills every room
I know someday this will all work out
she'll never face this alone
the light in her eye may be flickering dim
In the breathless hush of 4 a.m.
In the dark sits a sad cliche.
Cloaked in the navy blue of slowly fading stars
Tell me how this came to be
Sleeplessness talk to me
She'd say over and over again
Fumbling through a cut glass vase
Passing lipstick, cotton spools
Burning jealous pictures of marraiges of friends
You never asked to be
The glutton of sympathy
She says over and over again that this is the end
Cause I see it in your eyes
What you don't know, time to let go
I see it in your eyes
There is so much more out there to be learned
Such mournful words on this snowwhite vacant page
All the lessons that she learns she packs away
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy
She writes over and over again
Tossing turning roll away
Indescision won't you ever make up your mind
Lifetime Nightime wake the day
Cause tomorrow will see if you've had your fill of sympathy
Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy?
Don't you know the stars are all fading let the sunshine capture the sparkle
It€™s not the same with out him here
Twenty years of him dead and gone
This vodka does the memory clear
Though it€™s too hard to imagine what these tears are for
A walking a poster boy for all that€™s good
He gets swallowed by the cracks before he understood
She likes to think he loved her but it hurt so bad
Cause now she knows she is wrong.
It always seemed to strike him strange
And why he€™s late into the morning spending so much cash
The sweet smell of his angel€™s hair
That seemed to cling to his lips like a wax moustache
A walking monument to DNA making love unto the podium
At the PTA he€™s the principal of principals this love gone bad
Cause know she knows she€™s wrong
It hardly seems worth it baby
Too late in asking why
He juggled his honesty with two balls and an alibi
Now she knows that
Now she knows that
Now she knows that she€™s wrong
A walking a poster boy for all that€™s good
He gets swallowed by the cracks before he understood
She likes to think he loved her but it hurts so bad
Cause now she knows she is wrong.
A walking monument to DNA making love UNDER the podium
At the PTA he€™s the principal of principals this love gone bad
Cause know she knows she€™s wrong
When you need someone
and there's no one there
there is always the 9 o'clock train
to take you out somewhere
I take the train in town
like I did for years
there is only 7 more blocks
I could walk from here
I wanna stay home
I wanna stay home right here
I wanna stay home today
I wanna stay
It's only six o'clock
when my day begins
there is always my alarm clock
to wake me up again
when I realize the weight
that's firmly on my shoulders
I just try and find the place
I can take a walk on my blind side
when these memories fade
in my ripe old age
please remember my dear
Go to sleep and hush little darling
It's time for bed, time to put out the light
Sweet dreams are awaiting behind your closed eyes
And a blanket of night where the bed bugs don't bite
Go to sleep and hush until morning
You've said all your prayers, time to make them come true
Don't worry, your daddy is here if you need him tonight
I've known him all my life, it seems so inconceivable
At thirteen we shooks hands
But we've been always inseparable
He's cinnamon on my toast, we're so close
That's not to say we haven't had our share of arguments
He's so unpredictable he winks acknowledgments
When I would rather he closed his eye
Push me aside
My hand's a five leaf clover
It's Palm Sunday over and over
I never had the luck of swingers
Till I was wrapped around your fingers
He's my best friend
He's my best friend
I'm his best friend
He's my best friend
You don't need a brain to have a stroke of genius
Or a beautiful girl to let down your curls
'Cause growing up is hard enough
When your a powderkeg for powderpuffs
[Incomprehensible]
I'd never ask another on a date to the ball
He doesn't need a rubber, sweater or alcohol
'Cause he gets tipsy from exchanging looks
And a little misty reading sticky blue dirty books
He's my best friend
He's my best friend
I'm his best friend
He's my best friend
My hand's a five leaf clover
It's Palm Sunday over and over
I never had the luck of swingers
Till I was wrapped around your fingers
He's my best friend
(We could hold hands for hours)
He's my best friend
(In the bedroom or shower)
He's my best friend
(I pick him up when he's feelin down)
He's my best friend
(I guess he's always been hangin' around)
He's my best friend
(He gets lonely now and then)
He's my best friend
(And he gets shy around another men)
I'm his best friend
She turned her nightlight on
And she blew him a kiss
He stared back through his green crayola eyes
She traced his likeness from off the back of the disc
Next to the boxtop promise of the biggest prize
(chorus)
Joining a fanclub with my friends
Filling our bathtubs with tee shirts and 8x10's
He looks so dreamy I'm in love , from afar
When I'm pickin' up a falling star
Downstairs the late show's blasting "Age of the Rock"
The greedy monks playin' last sunday at the Milky way
Mom's writing checks to the Minister in the corner singing " Dig down deep"
Cause if you wanna go to heaven, all you gotta do is pay to pray
(chorus)
Joining a fanclub with my pen
Filling my bathtub with holy water and amens
He looks so dreamy I'm in love from afar
When I'm pickin' up a falling star
Shake that woody for me ST. Pinocchio
You've paid your money, Now watch that money grow
(chorus)
Joining a fanclub best be warned
He turns me on when he wears that lampshade crown of thorns
We'd look so dreamy sharing his black caviar
While I'm pickin' up a falling star
Joining a fanclub it's a big mistake
I still get heartburn when I think about all the stamps I ate
I wish I'd loved him before fate crashed his car
Say a prayer for a falling star.
Jimmy
his secrets out
the one he locked inside and denied every word about
he's guilty so his story claims
twisting in his seat he repeats alone his name
Counting the woes
between his every line
searchin miles and miles to define
just what it all means
Jimmy
as quiet as a church mouse
painted every graphic scene but with few details
his accomplice had made sure of this
when she sealed it with a bedspring kiss
and when her time had come to go
Jimmy washed the bloodstains form her clothes
but with a needle in his vein
he knew he could not explain
just what it all means
counting the words between his every line
searchin miles and miles to define
just what it all means
killing his time
a monkey in his vein
he knew he could not explain
just what it all means
I knew that when I saw her
That my life would soon move over from the fast lane
Gone would be the days of all my drinkin' and my carryin' on
But when I settled down
The party king uncrowned
This stubborn memory hadn't faded
Too many dumb mistakes
And all the grief it makes
Left nothin' else to be debated
And if you say that you understand then you're lyin'
But if you figure that I'm alright now I can't deny it
Baby's comin' back
Baby's comin' back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
If I had a dollar
For every single time I fought her
I'd buy a handgun
(I'd buy a handgun!)
But that couldn't shoot away
The bullseye that she made on my heart
And if I sound like a beaten man well I guess so
But on her way is the sweetest prize and I can't let go
Baby's comin' back
Baby's comin' back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
What I told her on the telephone was that I'd been so bad
I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these wild oats I'd sown
But when she said she'd give me one more chance
I said knock three times when you arrive
Baby's comin' back
Baby's comin' back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
Baby's comin' back, my darlin,
Baby's comin' back, this evenin'
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
Ever since I was a twinkle in my father's pants
They told me I could have it all and more when given chance
"We'll get you anything that you want"
A Ferrari on my 16th birthday
"We'll get you anything you need"
But what I need from you is so much more
All I wanna be is wanted
All I wanna be is wanted by you
All I wanna be is wanted
All I want is everything
I think I'd like to play guitar and be a Beatle and be so swell
And every show I would just dedicate this song to you
And as I envy all my fans
While I bitch about the price of fame
To my French maid Lou Ann
She looks attentive but she don't understand
All I wanna be is wanted
All I wanna be is wanted by you
All I wanna be is wanted
All I want is everything
All I wanna be is wanted
All I want is everything
All I wanna be is wanted by you
All I wanna be is wanted
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
Heal me darling
Pleaded the playboy bedroom eyes
Grace your sunshine
Till everything's okay, alright, fine
What's hers is his
'Cause everything is forgiven, forgiven
Though he soured the milk of human kindness
All is forgiven
(All is forgiven)
Truth and avarice
Encircle his words like a barber pole
Twisted and useless
Till they disappear in her camisole
(Goodnight alibi)
Throw away your daggers and pills
'Cause everything's still forgiven, forgiven
Though he bit off the nipple of human kindness
All is forgiven
(All is forgiven)
Hypocrite, four flusher, snake in the grass
Just a swindler and wolf in sheep's clothing, liar
Yes he tries to hide the cross he bears
But splinters, like the truth have always risen
All is forgiven
Though he shelters in the
Shade of the wings of a stool pigeon
All is forgiven
Heal me darling
Pleaded the playboy bedroom eyes
Grace your sunshine
Till everything's okay, alright, fine
Truth and avarice
Encircle his words like a barber pole
Twisted and useless
Till they disappear in her camisole
I dreamt about a tranquil Sunday drive
A sensory lullaby
We trade the comics, cartoons and magazines
For pistons and gasoline
We see the road from the bedside
Parked under the sunshine
We feel the warmth of the engine, so we climb inside
And take it to the motorway
Watch the clouds turn into faces, it's fun to play
Shift the gears for years and age a single day
Until we spill onto Russian Hill
Past cathedrals filled with God's favorite guests
Dirty hands feel clean when dressed in their Sunday best
Treeline village, oh, so heavenly
Cross a bridge of gold to landscapes of juniper
Only Eden is for millionaires
Watch the clouds turn into faces, it's fun to play
Shift the gears for years and age a single day
Until we spill onto Russian Hill
I'm pulling through the last stoplight
We head home past the shoreline
And through the rear view mirror it all melts away
'Til we're helpless
Watch the clouds turn into faces, it's fun to play
(We're hopeless)
We shift the gears for years and age a single day
(It fades away)
For like curtains close this sunset matinee
She turned the night light on and blew him a kiss
He stared back through his green Crayola eyes
She traced his likeness from off the back of a disc
Next to the boxtop promise of the biggest prize
Joining a fan club with my friends
Filling our bathtubs with teeshirts and 8 x 10's
He looks so dreamy, I'm in love from afar
When I'm pickin' up a fallen star
Downstairs the late show's blastin' 'Age of the rock'
Greedy monks playin' last Sunday at the Milky Way
Mom's writing checks to the minister in the corner
Singing, 'Dig Down Deep'
'Cause if you wanna go to Heaven all you gotta do is pay to pray
Joining a fan club with my pen
Filling my bathtub with holy water and amens
He looks so dreamy, I'm in love from afar
When I'm pickin' up a fallen star
Shake that woody, shake it for me, St. Pinocchio
You've paid your money, now watch that money grow
Joining a fan club, best be warned
He turns me on when he wears that lampshade crown of thorns
We'd be so dreamy, sharing his black caviar
While I'm pickin' up a fallen star
Joining a fan club is a big mistake
I still get heartburn when I think about all of the stamps I ate
I wished I'd loved him, before fate crashed his car
So there it is
All the truth is on the table
Nothing to forgive
It's okay to start again
The wedding cake
Almost fades into a memory thrown
In Cupid's face
Love's just frosting anyway
They both think back too long ago
When thoughts of them both growing old
Had given them the gray hair they deserved
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well I've come to take you home
Another wife
Neglected to the end
Lives her on prisoned life
Solitaire's not just a game
She called his bluff
Even though the tokens
And gold watch were never enough
To tell the time and start again
It seems all of these tragedies
That last and last eternities
Have broken every bank and every bone
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well I've come to take you home
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well I've come to take you home
They both think back too long ago
When thoughts of them both growing old
Had given them the gray hair they deserved
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well I've come to take you home
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Well I've come to take you home
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Say goodnight, your song is through
Faint refrain we hardly knew
Comes crashin' against the drunken waters of this wake when I hesitate
Because all I can say is too much, too little, too late
Farewell, you fool
Spare me the punch line please, I learned it well at Sunday school
Way back when all you loved was the grease paint
Not the collection plate, so much for the funny face
Because all I can say is too much, too little, too late
Remember when murder was only killing time
And an axe to grind as a bitter gulp of strychnine
What happened to the musketeers of chesterfields?
Tobacco swords behind smoky shields
Say goodnight old song you're through
Faint refrain make room for new
But spare me the vague, not-so-clever couplets
The ones I would have loved when I was you
'Cause now all I can say is too much, too little
And all I can feel, feels like the heaviest weight
Sit beside the breakfast table
Think about your troubles
Pour yourself a cup of tea
Then think about the bubbles
You can take your teardrops
And drop 'em in a teacup
Take 'em down to the riverside
And throw 'em over the side
To be swept up by a current
Then taken to the ocean
To be eaten by some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old he decomposed
He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now everybody knows
That when a body decomposes
The basic elements
Are given back to the ocean
And the sea does what it oughta
And soon there's salty water
Which is not to good for drinkin'
'Cause it tastes just like a teardrop
So we run it through a filter
And it comes out from a faucet
Where it pours into a teapot
Which is just about to bubble
So this is where she stands at night
On this cold avenue of lights
the reds and greens but mostly reds
for you he's stopping
In seeing him she knows him less
his stick is wet she's half undressed
and all in all they're both obsessed
with so much nothing
I know it's hard for you to see
what lies behind's a mystery
if words could speak they'd mean even less
when the king is half undressed
She dots her eyes with a smiley face
a work of art in all but taste
the fool deserves the bed he's made
where idiots slumber
divine she is to aire his fate
a crack of smile
through all this hate
means nothing more in this nervous state
of so much nothing
I know it's hard for you to see
The truth behind is misery
if words could speak they'd mean even less
When the king is half undressed
Blue Autumns
Sunshine Kisses
Hearts and Flowers
Grazing on the grounds of ponytails
The substitute is counting down her ticks 'til recess
Hammering down to size her fingernails
'Coz today's the day Sabrina builds her lunchbox buffet
(Cool aid, sandwiches and chips for all the shoulders)
Lunch is on the table while dessert is on the floor, singing...
So serene, Sabrina makes me feel so serene
So serene, Sabrina makes me feel so serene
Chesney's looking dapper in his brand new dunce cap
Strolling down the runway to an "F"
(never has he ever looked as lovely...the one and only)
With all the others watching eating paste and plato
He fights the urge to run and kiss the chef
'Coz she's a lovetarian especially in the form of puppies
So he keeps his elbows off her table
(but spills the beans)
That he loves the girl behind the boysenberry punch
(Sabrina)
So serene, Sabrina makes me feel so serene
(Our lady of the jabberwock)
So serene, Sabrina makes me feel so serene
(I live to smell her tulips talk)
So serene, Sabrina makes me feel so serene
(Hostess for the show and tell, the shepherdess of the muscatel)
Lunchbox, Hop-scotch, On the rocks

Curtain opens, spotlights the gentleman
Signing his love letter best wishes Simpleton
Dialog swam from his pen like pollywogs
He knew better that perfume was gravity
Pulling him closer to what could be tragedy
Love is blind, deaf and dumb, but never mind
You better catch me when I fall
I'm on my roller skates
Cause any ole way that I fall
I land in your arms even though it's wrong
Cause I love my new mistake
Intermission gave way to a miracle
The birth of an accident grew to a spectacle
That couldn't wait the mother was three weeks late
So Father Mason clutching his crucifix
Baptized the baby in whiskey and licorice
What a lovely way drowning sins in tooth decay
Looks like our hero's gonna fall
The bow's about to break
Cause any ole that I fall
I'll be in your arms as we lie awake
with our lovely new mistake
You better catch me when I fall
My sugar trampoline
Cause any ole way that I fall
I land in your arms even though it's wrong
Cause I love my new mistake
The ending turned tragic when many years later
The baby had grown up and married a pop singer
I think it was her turn to make her first mistake
Any ole time at fall
Any ole way that I fall
Wake up! Miss Toadstool!
It is I, your one and only king,
Bowser Koopa
I'm a turtle as you see
A little slow and a little green
But I'm the whole I'd say
Super “dupa”
Princess Toadstool, I know you're frightened (mmm mmm)
But if you knew just why you're here
Your fear would just be heightened
So let's just say
Ignorance is bliss!
Oh well, I hate to be a bummer
I've brought you here to bring me plumbers
You know those brothers
Oh, what's their names?
Oh yes! Mario and Luigi
Just the sound of them makes me queasy
I'd love to take that monkey wrench
I'd play my own game
Prince Toadstool, you're so misguided (mmm mmm)
I've never been found of bookworms
But then again this one does make good Mario bait
Oh, I can't wait
Ignorance is bliss!
With my magic book I'll shower
Those clumsy lizards with my power
Until dinosaur land is nothing but fossil fuel
My only problem with these spells
Is that I know not what they tell
So every hex leaves me perplexed
And all I want are those plumbing fools
Princess Toadstool, you're not so clever (mmm mmm)
All your words are alphabet soup
A picture tells it better
I'll say it again!
Ignorance is Bliss!
Haven't you heard?
A picture's worth a thousand words
You call yourself a princess but you're a brainiac in a dress
I can't believe you waste time with these books
You remind me of my kid sister
She read so much she got a blister
A big one, I mean big, on her brain, what a shnook!!!
I'd like to get my hands...
Just one time with a monkey wrench...
I'd fix their plumbing...
Princess Toadstool, I know you're frightened (so misguided)
But if you knew just why you're here
Your fear would just be heightened
Princess Toadstool, you're not so clever (pictures say it better)
All your words are alphabet soup
A picture tells it better (for the last time)
It's old news on the radio
How you broke through and how you let it go.
So all could see how good it feels to be free
Your digging up all your old playmates.
crossing your fingers back at the garden gates.
Cause planted seed don't always grow a family tree.
And you can call on your brother (to understand)
And you can call on your sister ( To make amends )
Although the feud in this family is through now that we
live together.
Fast willys' back from Mexico.
He traded all his missils in for mistletoe.
Changed his plea how good it feels to be free.
So You married candy with a silicone doubt
Yes she tasted so sweet until the money ran out.
Now he's back for his seeds handing bullets to the new
nominee.
So you can call on your brother (to understand)
you can call on your sister ( To make amends )
Although the feud in this family is through now that we
live together.
So you can call on your brother (to understand)
you can call on your sister ( To make amends )
Although the feud in this family is through now that we
live together.
Break out the teargas and sufferagy now.
We're gonna' talk about the good old days of cigarettes
and dynamite.
So you can call on your brother (to understand)
you can call on your sister ( To make amends )
Although the feud in this family is through now that we
live together.
(there's no rest for me)
You know the future is here when you pretend we live
I know it sounds unfair
She's like a painting standing there
I thank the Heavens up above
For the one that I'm thinking of
Calling Sarah
Crawling back to Sarah
'Cause you're the one
Sometimes it's awful hard to take
The way she takes me all the way
She's delicious beyond compare
I'd love to tell her but instead I stare
Calling Sarah
Crawling back to Sarah
'Cause you're the one
Calling Sarah
Crawling back to Sarah
'Cause you're the one
And when you ask me if I really love you
I can't wait to tell you
And if you ever feel you don't believe me
And don't you trust your feeling
'Cause it'd be so hard to take when you're away
I wouldn't last one day
That's why I'm calling Sarah
Crawling back to Sarah, Sarah
Calling Sarah
(That's why I'm calling)
Crawling next to Sarah
Calling Sarah
(And when you ask me if I really missed you)
(I can't wait to tell you)
Crawling back to
I knew that when I saw
That my life would soon move over from the fast lane
Gone would be the days
Of all by drinkin' and my carrying on
But when I settled down, the party king uncrowned
This stubborn memory hadn't faded
Too many dumb mistakes and all the grief it makes
Left nothing else to be debated
And if you say that you understand then you're lyin'
But if you figure that I'm alright now I can't deny it
Baby's coming back
Baby's coming back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
If I had a dollar for every single time I fought her
I'd buy a handgun
But that couldn't shoot away
The bull's eye that she made on my heart
And if I sound like a beaten man well I guess so
But on her way is the sweetest prize and I can't let go
Baby's coming back
Baby's coming back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
What I told her on the telephone was that I'd been so bad
I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these wild oats I'd sown
But when she said she'd give me one more chance
I said knock three times when you arrive
Baby's coming back
Baby's coming back
So I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah
Baby's coming back, my darling
Baby's coming back, the feeling
It's not the same without him here
Twenty years of him dead and gone
This Vodka does a memory clear
Though it's too hard to imagine what these tears are for
A walking poster boy for all that's good
He got swallowed by the cracks before he understood
She likes to think he loved her but it hurts so bad
'Cause now she knows she's wrong
It always seemed to strike her strange
His working late until the morning, spending so much cash
And the sweet smell of his angel's hair
That seemed to cling to his lips just like a wax mustache
A walking monument to DNA
Making love under the podium at the P.T.A.
He's the principal of principles, this love gone bad
'Cause now she knows she's wrong
It hardly seems worth it, baby
Too late in asking why
He juggled his honesty
With two balls and an alibi
Now she knows that
Now she knows that
Now she knows she's wrong
A walking poster boy for all that's good
He got swallowed by the cracks before he understood
She likes to think he loved her but it hurts so bad
'Cause now she knows she's wrong
A walking monument to DNA
Making love under the podium at the P.T.A.
He's the principal of principles, this love gone bad
Though it's time to admit it's true
I've come to depend on you
You and your angelic shout
Loud enough for two
And that is why
I'll confide in you the truth this time
That is why
I just can't go on and live this lie
Yesterday all was right as rain
But now the forecast's not
It's partly cloudy with trouser stains
And his copy of inquiring minds
But that never meant that much to her
She chose to keep her nose too clean
She'd rather keep it pointed anyway
In the spine of a magazine
And that is why
I'll confide in you the truth this time
That is why
I just can't go on and live this lie
When you say I trust in you
I promise you the truth
And when you say I bet you won't
You know I will and it'll be better in the end
So when you think you've got it figured out
Then you know you don't
Like all the rest you'd like to sit and pout
But ofcourse you won't
And that is why
I'll confide in you the truth this time
That is why
I just can't go on and live this lie
That is why
That is why
That is why
Ugly apparition, God's gift to oxygen
The puffed up immortal son
How they love him 'cause he'll become
The ghost at number one
How does it feel
To be the only one?
How does it feel
To be the only one that knows that you're right?
How does it feel
To be a loaded gun?
How does it feel
Inside a chamber packed with piss and spite?
Sure life's no cherry but a cupcake for the meek
So he shoots up his poison
Until the frosting tastes so sweet
(Like the Valentine)
Yeah, he's givin' it all he's got
The king of rebels hit the jackpot
But his finish line was an artistic flop
Even the critics can't outrun the ghost at number one
How does it feel
To be the only one?
How does it feel
To be the only one that knows that you're right?
How does it feel
To be a chalk line dollar sign?
How does it feel
About the address all the widows write?
Mrs. Lynn, the fruit of your labor
Gives us a Saviour, nappy superstar
To you we bid congratulations, to him adulation
A blessed life begun for the ghost at number one
How does it feel
To be the only one?
How does it feel
To be the only one that knows that you're right?
How does it feel
To be a visionary poet?
How does it feel
To pack a pen with vinegar and insight?
How does it feel
To be the only one?
How does it feel
To be the only one that knows that you're right?
How does it feel
To be a so deep down underground?
How does it feel
To be the only one who knows you've been buried alive?
Mrs. Lynn, the fruit of your labor
Gives us a Saviour
Mrs. Lynn, the fruit of your labor
I hope you remember me
I was your daddy once
Wearing a sailor cap and dirty nails
to you I'm just a picture on your mother's mantlepiece
who chose to fight the good fight in time to fail
into battle
and in your shadow
your daddy loves you still
yes i do
I never thought it'd be so hard to see you grow so fast
and turn into the man I used to be
but I hope you have more sense than I in matters such as these
medals don't mean shit when a family is lost at sea
I save every moment I've reached out and almost touched you
There's a little girl with blue eyes Starin' up at me With her hair up in a pony-tail Sunday shoes on her feet
When I look down at her pretty smile I feel just like a child And it's moments like this every day That makes life all worthwhile
And I know that there's angels on this earth I believe a little more each time That I look at her And no one else could ever Make me feel this way She will always be my angel Even when she flies away
Now there's a teenage girl that's leavin To go out on her first date And as I hand her over my car key T think back to yesterday To that little girl that used to Sit on my lap and drive And as she walked out of that front door The tears rolled out of my eyes
And I know that there's angels on this earth I believe a little more each time That I look at her And no one else could ever Make me feel this way She will always be my angel Even when she flies away
Then came her graduation We were so very proud You could hear my heart beating Over the crowd And even though I knew this day would come I don't know what to say So I just took a breath And then I watched her fly away
That's how I know there's angels on this earth I believe a little more each time That I look at her And no one else could ever Make me feel this way She will always be my angel Even when she flies away
Curtain opens, spot lights the gentleman
Signing his love letter best wishes Simpleton
Dialog swam from his pen like polliwogs
He knew better that perfume was gravity
Pulling him closer to what could be tragedy
Love is blind, deaf and dumb, but never mind
You better catch me when I fall
I'm on my roller skates
'Cause any ol' way that I fall
I land in your arms even though it's wrong
'Cause I love my new mistake
Intermission gave way to a miracle
The birth of an accident grew to a spectacle
That couldn't wait, the mother was three weeks late
So Father Mason, clutching his crucifix
Baptized the baby in whiskey and licorice
What a lovely way, drowning sins in tooth decay
Looks like our hero's gonna fall
The bow's about to break
'Cause any ol' way that I fall
I'll be in your arms as we lie awake
With our lovely new mistake
You better catch me when I fall
My sugar trampoline
'Cause any ol' way that I fall
I land in your arms even though it's wrong
'Cause I love my new mistake
The ending turned tragic when many years later
The baby had grown up and married a pop singer
I think it was her turn to make her first mistake
Any ol' time at fall, any ol' way that I fall
Any ol' time at fall, any ol' way that I fall
Any ol' time at fall, any ol' way that I fall
Any ol' time at fall, any ol' way that I fall
Any ol' time at fall, any ol' way that I fall
Her love was genuine She saved it all for her man, Not for a rainy day. But she learned quickly When he held another girl's hand She had been left to say
"This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine... This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine..."
She trys to display A face filled not with tears and dismay But he took her heart away. She wonders how many times This hopeless pyscho will turn Before a brighter day.
Bring back the sunshine, the wine, and the roses, For her it has taken so long. She pleads for relief and when no end's in sight She's left singing the saddest of songs...
"This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine... This ol' heart of mine, this worthless heart of mine..."
Wipe all those tears away, don't give up yet Some day you'll look back and laugh. All those bad memories that you'll soon forget Will just fade like an old photograph. Don't cry.
Jet Jet Jet I can almost remember their funny faces That time you told them that you were going to be marrying And Jet I thought the only lonely place was on the moon Jet Jet Jet
Jet was your father as bold as the sergeant major How come he told you that you were hardly old enough yet And Jet I thought the major was a lady suffragette Jet Jet Jet
Ah Mater want Jet to always love me Ah Mater want Jet to always love me Ah Mater . . . much later Jet
And Jet I thought the major was a lady suffragette Jet Jet
Ah Mater want Jet to always love me Ah Mater want Jet to always love me Ah Mater . . . much later Jet with the wind in your hair Of a thousand laces Climb on the back and we'll go for a ride in the sky And Jet I thought that the major was a little lady suffragette J et-J et-J et
And Jet you know I thought you was a little lady suffragette Jet
Strike the tent
Unpop the paintbox
And pack the carriages
With the flesh freaks of fear
At the beach we left them shell shocked
Lining up the avenue
In view of next year
High steppin' like a brigade
Down the block,
Don't be shocked
To hear somebody say Wake up, Doomsday!
It's time to join the big parade.
Come and march in time with the band
Playing loud, fighting crowds
To see the matinee (it's tailor made)
Because it's gonna be a brighter day.
For the seeker of thrills
Behind the ferris wheels
There's a man with one foot in the grave
And one foot on a banana peel
He's an actor of sorts
Who sold himself too short
So now he travels door to door
Performing The real Death of a Salesman
Oh my country, tears of thee
How the circus makes the world
Safe for anarchy
In a cage with an uneasy chair
Atop a merry go round
He wears that clown crown.
Can't you see that you can
Come as you are,
As you were
If you prefer you can change
(yes it can be arranged)
When you come and join the big parade.
But you can leave your baggage at home
Don't you pack
Don't look back
Then you can truly say
Goodbye highway
That what then and this is nowadays.
Come on you big shot, enjoy the rain
Take a class in pumping blood into
Those weathered veins
And I bet
You'd still come out as teacher's pet
(I scream, you scream )
Cause when it comes to being watertight
(you'll always be a plumber with a pipe dream)
You wrote that book, you own the copyright.
And clown costume
I saw it hanging in the closet of
Your elbow room.
Ooh come and join the big parade
Ooh it's gonna be a brighter day
If you've had it up to here with what's real
I'm here to tell you that it's no big deal
Because it's not too late
Oh, if you hurry up you can
Come on and join the big charade.
(Line up, shut up, clean up, and shave)
'Cause right behind you in the back of the fray
Is a blade, he's a renegade
Turning bullshit into marmalade
Don't you know there's gonna be
A heavy price to pay
(Line up, shut up, clean up, Don't you know)
For pushing all these clouds away
Oh promised it would be
It's bound to be a brighter day,
This swing set on top of a hill overlooks everything thats gone wrong and time stands still
A bitter pill wont swallow too much of a hassle. My pride wont fit inside that little capsle on the mantle I stare at the frame at the picture I look at myself and wonder why I still miss her thats the kicker off the Richter, the earth shakes, I let my legs dangle back and forth.
Forth and back break. Heavens sake, how longs it usually take to let the pain pass to reverse the ache? Theres no movie no song no person thats got it right, and every case is different, well I guess thats life.
I let her walk the walk she always talked the talk but never really said a damn thing I was lost I guess I still am but Ill figure it out on a swing on a hill underneath the clouds (yeah get down)
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up
I always wait for calls and never pick up the phone cause when I see that its you I know its just bad news I think its right what you said that were better off dead. I need an umbrella for all the rain checks you left. Girl I wish you the best in truth I really do youre so attracted to money clichés and tattoos I dont have to be smooth drop hints and leave clues I dress in cardigans now since Im such a love fool
Romeo remembers Juliet forgets it was a double suicide on the day that you left spring flew past summer came too fast but its like I was right cause you miss my ass
I let you walk the walk you always talked the talk but never really said a damn thing I was lost I guess I still am but Ill figure it out on a swing on a hill underneath the clouds (yeah get down)
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up
I feel the puff in my right eye punch me in the face last lips spoke and left me with a bad taste from the bagel shop to the rings at Big Lots drawings on your arm never got to meet your pops it helps me to know that you can move on so fast doppelganger to a beast and my hearts like glass. I could blame it on your age, the words on your page, or the way that your arms felt loose on my frame.
Dont wanna do it anymore my presence is a burden. I wanted to talk fix whatever wasnt workin but your chickenshit spineless as jellyfish you took the easy road out and wonder why Im not around
I let you walk the walk you always talked the talk but never really said a damn thing I was lost cause youre chickenshit spineless as jellyfish you took the easy road out and thats why Im not around so get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up get up and get down
Get up get up
Get up
And is that what you call a getaway? Tell me what you got away with. Ive seen more spine in jellyfish, Ive seen more guts in 11 year old kids have another drink and drive yourself home. I hope theres ice all on the road to make you think of me when you forget your seatbelt and when your head goes through the windshield

Aiyyo
Here's a little story ghetto love situation
'Bout a girl I met who had many temptations
She was so fly, get high, well understood
Big-ass big brains and straight out the hood
[Ghostface Killah]
Aiyyo, I woke up early took a stretch and a yawn
Had a 2 o'clock appointment with this girl name Dawn
She ain't the Avon lady but her beauty was strong
Right before she went to rest she had me singin this
song
she must be a special ladyyyyyyyyy
and a very exciting girlllllllllll
I don't know
she had the high-glow's switchin
see her in the club you hear others chicks bitchin
but Dawn quit to bust a bitch ass and shit
see she did 12 months over a ratchet
not no crab shit
got bagged with the mag
taxi cab shit
clit was hangin out her panties with no where to stash
it was classic
nowadays shes laid back
helpin me perfect my rap
only pink and smoked salmon where she feed her cat
wife everything
diamond cut like johnny lex collar attached
lickin glass bowls in her cat clothes
cause crazy stacks
finicky thing
her kittin drink polland spring
take naps
near her jewerly box
she play with all the rings
and when she step out the tub its like an ill flick
carmel skin, bath and body works leave the whole room
cinnamon candles, sweet side, they on relax mode
paint her toes on the bed slow, watchin me
versace robe on her body, peak, sippin asti (piemonte)
she a perfect 10 in my wildest dreams DAWN
[Cappadonna]
Aiyyo, she gotta be gone
Waitin on my sweet strawbeery pecan rican LaShawn
holdin my taffy down when I'm gone
three fourths of her body always covered with clothes
thats why I'm eatin her candy
and suckin her toes
sweet sexy LaShawn
she got body like whats goin on
on some marvin gay shit like lets get it onnnnn
suuuugarrrr
letssss getttt it onnnnn
ayo she a diamond in the rough
black rose in the hood
I love my queen and she treat me good
fuck cookin for me
she stash me out when the feds come lookin for me
I'm not cheatin on her or beatin on her
I spend the weekend on her
we on the block when the bills start creepin on her
she right there when it gets sticky
she strict politic to the vicky's
and a fly aviator the color of sky
god on her side
indian chick with cat eyes
mad respect with the fat thighs
plus her guns for the revolution
would straight leave her if she prostituting
yo my girls the bomb
intelligent mind
sky blue louis vetton
leg muscles, deep dimples
body is soft she smell fresh like a new born
pretty feet peitete ass nice shoes on
the sunshine for my quiet storm
keepin the food warm when I'm gone
it won't be long 'til I'm back to my sweet butter pecan
rican LaShawn
Hit me up baby girl, P.S. Cappadon'
[Trife Da God]
Aiyyo, aiyyo I woke up in the morning still drunk off
the Henn
Had a 3'oclock appointment with this girl name Jen
You know Jen from a hundred and ten, she push the Lex
Coupe
Part time fashion designer she work for Jet Blue
Pretty young thing, with a body like vida
Ass off the meter, eva medenez look, strut like a diva
Leave her shine fine, blow minds like dimes of a cheeba
She like it from behind, slow grind, sometimes with her
feet up
Ms. Bonitta Applebum Bottom, thick as a Roman column
Raw dick it down, love me, even if I'm holdin condoms!
Cause she my bitch, the only cat that I lick
Throwin that ass like Ciara on the top of that whip
Latin decent, velour suit with the cameltoe print
Peppermint flared panties with the garder-belt clips
Tattoo of a small butterfly on her inner thigh
Even at my loneliest times you that Jen will ride...
[Chorus: Shawn Wigs]
Whether Jen, Dawn, or Shawn its the same situation
'Bout a girl I met who had many temptations
She was so fly, get high, well understood
