MAKE IT
(Tyler)
Good evening people, welcome to the show
got something here I want you all to know
when laughin' people bring on primal screams
you got to think of what it's gonna take to make your dreams
Make it
don't break it
I said make it
don't break it
do then ya feel like the world's coming down on you
You know that history repeats itself
but you just learned so by somebody else
you know you do, you gotta think up fast
you gotta figure what it's gonna take to make it last
Make it
don't fake it
said make it
don't fake it
Better weather, pull yourself together
don't be catchin' the blues
better weather, pull yourself together
what have you got to lose
you're only paying your dues
If you're gone I'll get you anyway
although you know what you've been going through
SOMEBODY
(Tyler/Emspack)
I need a lady, not somebody shady
need someone to be close to
somebody cozy, not somebody nosy
help me see my whole day through
Someone to share the load
somebody to walk the road I live on... live!
Good Lord send me, good Lord mend me
send me down someone for me
said I won't be choosy, you could send me a floozy
send me anybody you please
Somebody say you will
somebody further still
somebody, some-somebody for me
now won't you send me somebody
Yeah, somebody
won't you send me somebody
now won't you send me somebody
well, call for somebody, scream loud and bloody
call woman, woman, come on to me
save for tomorrow, share all your sorrow
misery enjoys company (yes it does, yes it does)
Somebody say you will
somebody further still
somebody, some-somebody for me
somebody say you will
somebody further still
somebody, some-somebody for me
DREAM ON
(Tyler)
Every time that I look in the mirror
all these lines on my face getting clearer
the past is gone
it went by like dusk to dawn
isn't that the way
everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Yeah, I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
you got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's in books' written pages
live and learn from fools and from sages
you know it's true
all the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years
sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
sing with me, if it's just for today
maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
dream yourself a dream come true
dream on, dream on, dream on,
and dream until your dream comes true
dream on (7x)
ONE WAY STREET
(Tyler)
Hey look on yonder, what's that I see
well that old bogus honey coming after me
I thought you told her I was out of town
I wonder how she knowed I was hangin' around
say, listen babe, don't go wastin' your time
you keep on comin' round you'll hear the same old line
you got a thousand boys, you say you need 'em
you take what's good for you and I'll take my freedom
'cause lately it's been so hard now to make ends meet
and honey, your head's a one way street
and I gotta go the other way
I thought I knew her, my cagey lady
how could my sunshine be so damn shady
she'll say she love to talk a conversation
but I'm the one that makes my situation
this one way city, that I thought I knew
it's such a pity honey, that's it for you
Because lately it's been so hard now to make ends meet
and honey, your head's a one way street
and I gotta go the other way
There's nothin' over here I never showed ya
I made it pretty clear I'm glad to know ya
you know your brother Spike, he's on the level
but you always lookin' like you're mad at the devil
don't say I cop a 'tude, it's all forgotten
it's just you're much too rude, your fruits are rotten
you know I work so hard to keep it alive
now all I hear from you is nothin' but jive
Because lately it's been so hard now to make ends meet
and honey, your head's a one way street
and I gotta go the other way
Lately it's been so hard now to make ends meet
and honey, your head's a one way street
and I really been feelin' like I could be movin' on
your head's like a one way street
when you're foolin' everybody you meet
your head's like a one way street
you got to get yourself back on your feet
MAMA KIN
(Tyler)
It ain't easy, livin' like a gypsy.
Tell ya, honey, how I feel.
I've been dreaming,
Floatin' down stream and
Losin' touch with all that is real.
Whole earth lover, keepin' under cover
Never knowin' where ya been.
You've been fadin', always out paradin.
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin.
Well you've always got your tail on the wag.
Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon.
You act like a perpetual drag.
You better check it out,
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon.
It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna,
And it's so hard to find piece of mind. Yes it is.
The way I see it, you've got to say shit.
But don't forget to drop me a line.
Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen.
And workin' for you dad is just a drag.
He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams.
You better check it out,
Or someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon.
Keepin' touch with Mama Kin.
Tell her where you've gone and been.
Livin' out your fantasy,
Sleeping late and smoking tea.
[repeat once]
It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna,
And it's so hard to find piece of mind. Yes it is.
The way I see it, you've got to say shit.
But don't forget to drop me a line.

And workin' for you dad is just a drag.

WRITE ME
(Tyler)
write me a letter
write me a letter
write it today
I'm goin' away
write me a letter
write me a letter
write it today
I'm goin' away
Well I've been away forever
suicide's crossin' my mind
but I'll never get so far behind
I said, the ways of the night are evil
without that lord of day
but I'll never get so far away
I said write me
write me
write me
I said write me

I'm goin' away
Well I've been away forever
suicide's crossin' my mind

hidin' from the wind and the rain
but you could write me a letter
for to save me from a-goin' insane
I said write me
write me
write me
I said write me
write me

MOVIN' OUT
(Tyler/Perry)
We all live on the edge of town
where we all live ain't a soul around
people start a-comin', all we do is just a-grin
said we gotta move out cause the city's movin' in
I said we gotta move out cause the city's movin' in
Tell me who ya know, and I'll tell ya who too
go see my friend and he'll set you free
tell me what you need and maybe I can go too
no one knows the way but maybe me
nobody goes there, nobody shows where
nobody knows where you can find me
Good morning glory, halleluh to ya
what is the story and what's been goin' through ya?
livin' like a king off the fat of the land
workin' like a dog in a rock n' roll band
We're movin' -- we're gettin' out
we're movin' -- without a doubt
we're movin' -- we're goin' far
we're movin' -- oh yes we are
'cause nobody goes there, nobody shows where
nobody knows where you can find me
nobody goes there, nobody shows where
nobody knows where you can find me
level with God and you're in tune with the universe
talk with yourself and you'll hear what you wanna know
gotta rise above cause below it's only gettin' worse
life in time will take you where you wanna go, where you wanna go, x's a
bunch
baby catch ya round, I don't know where I'm goin'
WALKIN' THE DOG
(Thomas)
Mary Mac, dressed in black
silver buttons up and down her back
I know, 'cause I love her so
she broke a needle, now she can't sew
Walkin' the dog
I'm just a-walkin' your dog
well if you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
Ask your mama for fifteen cents
to see the elephant jump the fence
it jumped so high, it touched the sky
didn't come back till the fourth of July
Mary Mary, quite contrary
how does your garden grow
well well, silver bells, and little bitty bitty white shells
pretty maids all in a row
Get your wings
SAME OLD SONG AND DANCE
(Tyler/Perry)
Get yourself cooler, lay yourself low
coincidental murder, with nothing to show
with the judge, constipation will go to his head
and his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead
It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend
it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend
Gotcha with the cocaine they found with your gun
no smoothy face lawyer to getcha undone
say love ain't the same on the south side of town
you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around
It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend
it's the same old story, same old story
same old song and dance
Fate comes a-knockin', doors start lockin'
your old time connection, change your direction
ain't gonna change it, can't rearrange it
can't stand the pain when it's all the same to you, my friend
When you're low down and dirty, from walkin' the street
with your old hurdy-gurdy, no one to meet
say love ain't the same, on the south side of town
you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around
LORD OF THE THIGHS
(Tyler)
Down to who knows who, just to socialize.
I'm waiting for my girls, when you call my eyes.
You got no way to make a man honey,
You got to understand.
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.
Well, well, Lordie my God,
What do we got here?
She's flashin' 'cross the floor,
Make it perfectly clear.
You're the bait, and you're the hook,
Someone 'bound to take a look.
I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.
You must of come here to find it,
You've got the look in your eyes.
Although you really don't mind it -
I am the Lord of your Thighs!
You must of come here to find it baby,
You've got the look in your eyes.
Although you really don't mind it -
I am the Lord of your Thighs!
SPACED
(Tyler/Perry)
Spaced in time
child of nine
doin' twenty years on the way
fire and steel
earth unreal
find another planet to stay
papa died
ma survived
tellin' me about her ordeal
And the soul she could not feel
'cause they made her so unreal
Lightnin' years
disappears
twenty million years on my brain
synthesize
overrides
tryin' to keep from goin' insane
And my soul I can not feel
'cause they made me so unreal
Spaced enough to know I feel there's nothin' out there
spaced enough to know I feel I really don't care
spaced enough to feel I'm really losin' my mind
And I'm never ever goin' back
I'm off the track
no one even knows I'm alive
spaced
without a trace
waitin' for the word to arrive
I'm the last man to survive
WOMAN OF THE WORLD
(Tyler/Solomon)
Well she's a woman of the world, and God she knows it
she'll turn my head every time she shows it
yeah, nothin' you can do, nothin' you can say
no way you can try to change her way
she might be gone tomorrow, honey say what you gotta say
Lordy what a woman
how ya feelin' *
well I tried so hard to please her
she'd give me a look if I beg to tease her
there's nothin' you can say, nothin' you can do
no way you can try to coochie coo
she might be gone tomorrow, oh lordy what you gonna do?
And I tried with an open hand and a heart of sorrow
hoped that everything would be all right
don't save too much lovin' for tomorrow
get out all your lovin' here tonight
she got big-eyed cats, she got coats of sable
she seats forty-four at her dinner table
and there's nothin' you can do, nothin' you can say
no way you can try to change her way
she might be gone tomorrow, oh throwin' it all away
S.O.S. (TOO BAD)
(Tyler)
Stagecoach lady, hourglass body
making things glow in the night
well, she would if she could, and she'd be good if she would only
tell her lover she be out tonight
'cause I'm a bat
a lonely school boy
and I'm a rat
and it's too bad, can't get me none of that!
Salt Lake City, salt-lickin' bitties
*** stinkin' of gin
well my daddy was hard, his face was pretty scarred
from kickin' ass and playin' poker to win
it's too bad
and it's too bad
can't get me none of that!
Loose old lady
my mama Cady
chivalry was born at her feet
well she shoulda thought twice
when pa showed his dice
And now she put my daddy to sleep
It's too bad
Lord, it's too bad!
TRAIN KEPT A ROLLIN'
(T. Bradshaw, L. Mann, H. Kay)
Well, on a train, I met a dame,
she rather handsome, we kind looked the same
she was pretty, from New York City
I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
but I just couldn't tell her so
I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long
train kept a-rollin' all night long
train kept a-rollin' all night long
train kept a-rollin' all night long
with a "heave!", and a "ho!"
but I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no
Well, get along, sweet little woman get along
on your way, get along, sweet little woman get along
on your way,
I'm in heat, I'm in love,
but I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

lookin' so good I couldn't let her go
but I just couldn't tell her so
I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long

SEASONS OF WITHER
(Tyler)
Blues hearted lady, sleepy was she
love for the devil brought her to me
tears of a thousand drawn to her sin
seasons of wither holdin' me in
Oooh woe is me, I feel so badly for you
oooh woe is me, I feel so sadly for you in time
bound to lose your mind
live on borrowed time
take the wind right out of your sail
Fireflies dance in the heat of
hound dogs that bay at the moon
my ship leaves in the midnight
can't say I'll be back too soon
they awaken, far far away
heat of my candle show me the way
tears of a thousand drawn to her sin
seasons of wither holdin' me in
PANDORA'S BOX
(Tyler/Kramer)
When I'm in heat and someone gets a notion
I jump to my feet, I hoof it to the ocean
we hit a beach where no one give a hoot
nobody never ever wears a suit
the ladies there, they look so proud
that's cause they know that their well endowed
I ain't much on Fannie's conversation
or care to much about her operation
but every time Pandora come my way
I get high, can't explain the sensation
to get it on I got to watch what I say
or I'll catch hell from the women's liberation
Sweet Pandora
godlike aura
smellin' like a flora
open up your door-a for me
Sweet Pandora
mama crack a smile for me
just for me
Now I ain't what you'd call a city slicker
or claim to fame to be a slitty licker
Toys in the attic
TOYS IN THE ATTIC
(Tyler/Perry)
In the attic
lights
voices scream
nothin' seen
real's the dream
Leaving the things that are real behind
leaving the things that you love from mind
all of the things that you learned from fears
nothin' is left for the years
repeat chorus
Toys, toys, toys
in the attic
UNCLE SALTY
(Tyler, Hamilton)
Uncle Salty told me stories of a lonely
baby with a lonely kind of life to lead
my mammy was lusted, Daddy he was busted
they left her to be trusted till the orphan bleeds
but when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
Uncle Salty told me when she was just a baby
that she'd get by and maybe someday she'd see
but soon she found her mother's love for all the others
the pushers and the shovers was the life to lead
but when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
oooh, oh yeah
oooh, oh yeah, yeah yeah
now she's doin any for money and a penny
a sailor with a penny or two or three
hers is the cunning for men who come a-runnin'
they all come for fun and it seems to me
that when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window (x1,000,000)
ADAM'S APPLE
(Tyler)
Back when Cain was able
way before the stable
lighting struck right down from the sky
a mother ship with fate said let's give it a try
Conscience was related
man he was created
lady luck took him by surprise
a sweet and bitter fruit
it surely opened his eyes
Well she ate it
lordy it was love at first bite
well she ate it
never knowin wrong from right
Even Eve in Eden
voices tried deceiving
with lies that showed the lady the way
at first she stopped turned and tried to walk away
Man he was believer
lady was deceiver
so the story goes but you see
that snake was he
she just climbed right up his tree
chorus
Evil came like rainin'
who knows who's to blamin'
something tried to lay her to waste
and all she want and need was just a little taste..
chorus
WALK THIS WAY
(Tyler/Perry)
Backstroke lover always hidin' 'neath the covers
till I talked to your daddy, he say
he said you ain't seen nothin' till you're down on a muffin
then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways
I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder
oh, the times I could reminisce
'cause the best things of lovin' with her sister and her cousin
only started with a little kiss
like this!
Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
and your feet flyin' up in the air
singin' "hey diddle diddle"
with your kitty in the middle of the swing
like you didn't care
so I took a big chance at the high school dance
with a missy who was ready to play
wasn't me she was foolin'
'cause she knew what she was doin'
and I knowed love was here to stay
when she told me to
Walk this way (8x)
just gimme a kiss
like this!
Schoolgirl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
little skirt's climbin' way up the knee
there was three young ladies in the school gym locker
when I noticed they was lookin' at me
I was a high school loser, never made it with a lady
till the boys told me somethin' I missed
then my next door neighbour with a daughter had a favour
so I gave her just a little kiss
like this!
(repeat second verse, substitute this at the end)
when she told me how to walk this way, she told me to
Walk this way (8x)
just gimme a kiss
like this!
BIG TEN INCH RECORD
(F. Weismantel)
Got me the strangest woman
believe me this trick's no cinch
but I really get her going
when I whip out my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays the blues
well a band that plays its blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favourite blues
Last night I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
she said now stop that jivin'
now whip out your big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays those blues
well a band that plays the blues
she just loves my big 10 inch
record of her favourite blues
I, I, I cover her with kisses
and when we're in a lover's clinch
she gets all excited
when she begs for my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays those blues
well a band that plays the blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favourite blues
My girl don't go for smokin'
and liquor just make her flinch
seems she don't go for nothin'
'cept for my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays the blues
band that play the blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favourite blues

NO MORE NO MORE
(Tyler/Perry)
Blood stains the ivories on my daddy's baby grand
ain't seen the daylight since we started this band
No more, no more (2x)
Store-bought clothes fallin' 'part at the seams
tea leaf-readin' gypsies fortune-tellin' my dreams
No more, no more (2x)
Holiday Inn, lock the door with a chain
you love 'em and you hate it but to me they're all the same
No more, no more (3x)

that weren't exactly true
Now everythin' changes

I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin'
and the love I been givin'
would be sure to set you spinnin'
with your feet never touchin' the ground
And I'm round and round
Well it was one for all
and it was all for one
and everything that we did
never bothered no one
Now everythin' changes

I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin'
and the love I been givin'
would be sure to set you spinnin'
with your feet never touchin' the ground
I'm goin' round and round...
Can you remember the days
when you were sweet sixteen
and always caught in the blaze
of someone else's dreams
Now everythin' changes
ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
I can't remember my name
I'm goin' round and round...
I'm goin' round and round....

Honey whatcha done to your head?

(Tyler, Perry)

LAST CHILD
(Tyler, Whitford)
I'm dreamin tonight, I'm leaving back home, right
Take me back to a south Tallahassee
Down cross the bridge to my sweet sassafrassy
Can't stand up on my feet in the city
Got to get back to the real nitty gritty
Yes sir, No sir
Don't come close to my
Home sweet home
Can't catch no dose
of my hot tail poon-tang sweetheart
sweathog ready to make a silk purse
from a J Paul Getty and his ear
with a face in a beer
Home Sweet Home
Get out in the field,
Put the mule in the stable
Ma, she's A cookin'
Put the eats on the table
Hate's in the City and My love's in the meadow
Hand's on the plow and my feets in the ghetto
Stand up, sit down
Don't do nothin'
Ain't no good when boss man's stuffin'
Down their throats with paper notes
as babies cry
When you're rockin' the street
Home Sweet Home
Mamma take me home sweet home
I was the last Child, just a punk in the street.
RATS IN THE CELLAR
(Tyler/Perry)
goin' under - rats are in the cellar
goin' under - skin is turnin' yella
nose is runny - losin' my connection
losin' money - gettin' no affection
New York City blues
east side, west side blues
throw me in the slam
catch me if you can
believe
that you're wearin', tearin' me apart
safe complainin' - 'cause everything's rotten
go insanin' - and ain't a thing forgotten
feelin' cozy - rats are in the cellar
cheeks're rosy - skin's turnin' yella
Loosin' * - lookin' rather lazy
see my body - pushin up a-daisies
New York City blues
east side, west side blues
throw me in the slam
catch me if you can
believe
that you're wearin', tearin' me apart
New York City blues
east side, west side blues
throw me in the slam
catch me if you can
believe
that you're wearin', tearin' me apart
COMBINATION
(Perry)
the street is cold, the dawn is grey
my heart says no but my head says stay
my work is finished, or so I've been told
can't part the three of us, once we got a hold
I forgot the name
I took a shot on the chin
I'm rearranging my game
tell by the shape I'm in
in line of fire, you know what to say
they gave us no choices, just one shade of grey
my legs keep movin', I don't seem to stray
but I know each step we take, they're one step away
I found the secret, the key to the vault
we walked in darkness, kept hittin' the walls
I took the time, to feel for the door
I found the secret, the key to it all
I got the Nouveauree
and dragged it home to bed
I traded you for me
I took it all and said
I find my own fun, sometimes for free I got to pay it to come lookin' for
me walkin' on Gucci, wearin' Yves St. Laurent barely stay on cause I'm so
God damn gaunt
SICK AS A DOG
(Tyler/Hamilton)
please, I've just got to talk to you
please, well get your head out of the loo
please, we're a long long way from home
please, you turn a young man's face to stone
sick as a dog, what's your story
sick as a dog, a cat got your tongue
sick as a dog, you'll be sorry
sick as a dog, 'cause you really ain't that young
please, you were much to my surprise
please, you're a lady in disguise
please, you're the only friend I got
please, you'd be the last to see me rot
please, it's a shame you're so refined
please, she was the last thing on my mind
please, don't be late to take it light
please, you're gonna bay into the night
take it light (?) (4x)
say goodnight
NOBODY'S FAULT
(Tyler/Whitford)
lord I must be dreamin'
what else could this be
everybody's screamin'
runnin' for the sea
holy lands are sinkin'
birds take to the sky
the prophets are all stinkin' drunk
I know the reason why
eyes are full of desire
mind is so ill at ease
everything is on fire
shit piled up to the knees
out of rhyme or reason
everyone's to blame
children of the season
don't be lame
sorry
you're so sorry
don't be sorry
man has known and now he's blown it
upside-down and hell's the only sound
we did an awful job and now they say it's nobody's fault
old St. Andres
seven years ago
shove it up their richters
redlines stop and go
noblemen of courage
listen with their ears
spoke but how discouraging
when no one really hears
one of these days you'll be sorry
too many houses on the stilt
three million years or just a story
four on the floor up to the hilt
out of rhyme or reason
everyone's to blame
children of the season
don't be lame
sorry
you're so sorry
don't be sorry
man has known and now he's blown it
upside-down and hell's the only sound
we did an awful job and now we're just a little too late
eyes are full of desire
mind is so ill at ease
everything is on fire
shit piled up in debris
California showtime
five o'clock's the news
everybody's concubine
was prone to take a snooze
sorry
you're so sorry
don't be sorry
man has known and now he's blown it
upside-down and hell's the only sound
we did an awful job and now we're just a little too late
GET THE LEAD OUT
(Tyler/Perry)

LICK AND A PROMISE
(Tyler/Perry)
Johnny come lately on a Saturday night
singin' how-de-do
backstreet boogie in the house of delight
where they steal the show
the money come sour but the ladies are sweet
and it's a love affair
whole place rockin', people stompin' their feet
when the gang's all there
He gets his lovin' every night for free
he's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
I sing na na na na na
na na na na na
Johnny liked to gamble with his lady Louise
she was a blackjack deuces are wild
he got to thinkin' 'bout his nose in the breeze
*** Johnny looked and he smiled
he started thinkin' bout the fortune and fame
and the young girls down at his knees
he dug the money but forgot all the names
so he knew just how to appease
lick and a promise
lick and a promise
lick and a promise
he gave the ladies a lick and a promise
loose change clover in his early early years
had his poor mama pacin' the floors
he grabbed a guitar and a couple of beers
now the crowd keeps screamin' for more
He gets his lovin' every night for free
he's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
I sing na na na na na
na na na na na
HOME TONIGHT
(Tyler)
Now it's time to say good night to you
now its time to bid you sweet adieu

so baby, don't let go
hold on real tight
'cause I'll be home tonight
tonight
so baby, don't let go
hold on real tight
'cause I'll be home tonight

Draw the line
DRAW THE LINE
(Tyler/Perry)
Checkmate honey, beat ya at your own damn game
no dice honey, I'm livin' on the astral plane
feet's on the ground, and your head's goin' down the drain
oh, heads I win, tails you lose, to the never mind
where to draw the line
an Indian summer, Carrie was all over the floor
she was a wet net winner, and rarely ever left the store
she'd sing and dance all night, and wrong all the right out of me
oh, pass me the vile and cross your fingers, it don't take time
nowhere to draw the line
hi ho silver, we were singin' all your cowboy songs
oh, you told Carrie, and promised her you wouldn't be long
heads I win, tails you lose, lord it's such a crime
no dice honey, you're the salt, you're the queen of the brine
checkmate honey, you're the only one who's got to choose
where to draw the line
checkmate, don't be late
take another pull
that's right
impossible
when you got to be yourself
you're the boss, the toss
the price, the dice
grab yourself a slice
nowhere to draw the line
I WANNA KNOW WHY
(Tyler/Perry)
kickin' down the road
feelin' mighty slowed
with the likes of you
gettin' mighty spaced
never had a taste
of what you're goin' through
I can't bitch
went from rags to riches
then to ragtime screamin' the blues
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
try to make a fool out of me
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
gotta make a fool
gotta make a fool
try to make a fool out of me
swing low
sweet cherry o
when a strange love showed me the way

when the whore's comin' on for the play
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
try to make a fool out of me
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
gotta make a fool
gotta make a fool
try to make a fool out of me
E. Poe
eatin' crow

time passed
and words lost the last
of the best thing he ever had
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
gotta make a fool out of me
I wanna know why
everybody's good intention
gotta make a fool
gotta make a fool
try to make a fool out of me
oh play rough

ya ain't ghoulin' me

CRITICAL MASS
(Tyler/Hamilton/Douglas)
Arriving in boats, black hooded coats
tormentors climbed into my room
I crawled under my bed, covered my head
but they're flushin' me out with a broom
the leader, she's small, pinned my ass to the wall
for my seeds or she'd be losin' her past
Time after time, she'd be readin' my mind
but she never got the feelin' to last
celebrate, celebrate, celebraid it
this is the critical mass
So far so good, I heard the other say
so good so far, they're takin' me away
I drink to you, your mind, her ass
we'll take a drink and break the glass
celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
this is the critical mass
now the tallest of two, with a brush full of blue
paints surrealist scenes on the wall
so I tell her for fun, that it's really well done
but she just ain't listenin' at all
she points to my heart, tellin' me if I'm smart
I'll practice and phase
out and admit, when the shoe doesn't fit
and I went screaming out down the hall
need it
need your love
just then I heard a poundin' on the door
we're all here, sang the voice of twenty more
I drink to you alas, we'll take a drink and break the glass
celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
we are the critical mass
time and space, is takin' me away
time erase, don't know the time of day
time and space, is takin' me away
time erase, don't know the time of day
time and space, is takin' me away
time erase, don't know the time of day
GET IT UP
(Steven Tyler and Joe Perry)
Take me on your rocking whores.
Hit the lights and shut your doors.
Grab your ankles , ev'ryone.
Ain't my way of having fun.
Can't give it up, gotta give it up,give it up, c'mon Nancy.
Can't give it up, get it up, for your fancy.
Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy.
Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up,
For your fantasies
my ass don't speculate.
I'm just your slave, your master's bait.
And lots of luck into the night.
Just waitin' for the bright light fright.
Can't give it up, gotta give it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy.
Can't give it up, get it up, for your fancy.
Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy.
Really have a good time
Really have a good time
Suckin up the moonshine.
Up underneath her clothesline.
Really have a good time.
Love me til the sun...
can't get it up, gotta get it up,
gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy.
Can't give it up, gotta get it up, get it up, get it up,
for your fancy.
Gotta get it up, get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy.
Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up,
get it up and down and all around.
Take a ride and paint the town.
Slow me down and make it fast.
Scream almost and make it last.
You know you gotta really have a good time.
You know your really gonna, really have a good time.
Suckin up the moonshine.
Up underneath the her clothesline.
You know your really gonna, really have a good time.
You know you really wanna love me till the sun can't get it up. Get it up.
BRIGHT LIGHT FRIGHT
(Perry)
It's the dawn of the day and I'm crashed and I'm smashed
As it is I'm feelin' like my chips are cashed
All of my clothes strewn all over the room
The crisis at hand is I'm all out of zoom
I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the Good Morning News
The tricks of the night
Keepin' me in a daze
Open a bottle and I'll pull down the shades
Glance in the mirror
Back into bed
Forget that it's day, time to party again
I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the Good Morning News
Bright Light Fright, Bright Light Fright, Bright Light Fright, gimme the
knife
Bright Light Fright, Bright Light Fright, Bright Light Fright, gimme the
knife
I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the Good Morning News
KINGS AND QUEENS
(Hamilton/Kramer/Tyler/Whitford/Douglas)
Long ago in days untold
were ruled by lords of greed
maidens fared with gold they dared
to bare their wombs that bleed
kings and queens and guillotines
taking lives denied
starch and parchment laid the laws
when bishops took the ride
only to deceive
Oh I know I
lived this life afore
somehow I know now
truths I must be sure
tossin', turnin', nightmares burnin'
dreams of swords in hand
sailing ships, the Viking spits
the blood of father's land
only to deceive
living times of knights and mares
raising swords for maidens fair
sneer at death, fear only loss of pride
living other centuries
deja vu or what you please
follows true to all who do or die
screams of no reply
they died
screams of no reply
and died
died
lordy, lordy, they died
THE HAND THAT FEEDS
(T.Hamilton/J.Kramer/S.Tyler/B.Whitford/J.Douglas)
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please, doctor, doctor, please
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Feel like a old disease
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Get your sweet ass off the floor
Doctor, doctor, doctor
I can't refuse any loose hearted lady anymore
I scream your name into the crowd
You feel the flame but you ain't proud
Maybe your attitude ain't right
So all that's left for me to do is bite
The hand that feeds me
Feeds me
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, please
All things you put me through
What the hell you want me to
Do all the things that uncle John needs
I ain't the dog that bites the hand that feeds me
In the middle of, with a spittle of
Et tu like birds of a feather
When another day, love another way
Push, shove, make love, play
Never never, never ever
Never ever, never ever
Na na na na na
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please do a-what you can
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Would you please give my life a hand
All things you put me through
What the hell you want me to
Do all the things that uncle John needs
I ain't the dog that bites the hand that feeds me, yeah
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please, doctor, doctor, please
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor...
SIGHT FOR SORE EYES
(Tyler/Perry/Douglas/Johansen)
goin' downtown, goin' down, goin' down
'neath the city, eatin' ground round
underground is pretty gritty
I turned the screw she held the light
that's when I knew she was a
sight for sore eyes
she was a sight for sore eyes
playin' no fair, sleepin' under stairs
downtown's a pity, takin' fair square
under where it's pretty gritty *
I turned the screw she held the knife
oh holy Jesus, she's a sight for sore eyes
sight for sore eyes (she's a nitty gritty)
turnin' in style, walk a mile for your titty
naked foul while under there
under where it's pretty gritty
hey, don't you know people
she's a love lust hussy
she left, oh, she rust me
dear old girl
she was a sight for sore eyes
but she was sittin' pretty
a sight for sore eyes
she was a nitty gritty
sight for sore eyes
peeled back and parted
even at the start it was delight or demise
I feel like a leopard king
sight for sore eyes
she was a sight for sore eyes
MILK COW BLUES
(Arnold)
Well I tried everything
Just to get along with you
And I'm gonna tell you just

Well I'm sick of all your cryin
When you should be leavin me alone
If you don't believe me
You pack me bags, I'm gone
Wontcha please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
You almost lost your love girl
When your ol man ain't around
Won't you please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
When your ol man ain't around

Don't that sun look good goin' down
And you best believe I love ya baby
When your old man ain't around

Don't that sun look good goin' down
When your ol man ain't around
Won't you please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
And you best believe I love ya baby
When your old man ain't around
Round and round

CHIP AWAY THE STONE
(Supa)
you act like a prima donna
playing so hard to get
sittin' so cool and nonchalant
draggin' on a cigarette
you keep a wall all around ya
'n I'll get through some day

I won't stop 'til your love is my very own
chip away
that's what I'm gonna do
sweet little mama I wanna get next to you

trying to look so hard
all decked out in your antique dress
while the boys all promenade
even a rock will crumble
if you strike it night and day
if hammer I must, I'm gonna get through your crust
gonna chip that stone away
chip it, I'm gonna nip it, all night long
Night in the ruts
NO SURPRIZE
(Tyler/Perry)
Nineteen seventy one
we all heard the starters gun
New York is such a pity but at Max's Kansas City we won
We all shot the shit at the bar
with Johnny O'Toole and his scar
and then old Clive Davis said he's surely gonna make us a star
I'm gonna make you a star
just the way you are
But with all his style
I could see in his eyes
that we is goin' on trial
and it was no surprize
The boys kept kickin' ass
as usual time will tell
but some bitch in the choir threw waters on the fires of hell
she loved to show and tell
lord she loved to tell
But with all our style
you could see in our eyes
that we is still on trial
baby it's no surprize, no surprize, no surprize, no surprize
Midnight lady
situation fetal
vaccinate your ass with your phonograph needle
I say lookie here
friend of mine
scratch like you need calomine
flamingo boots
soles a-creakin'
still in love and Puerto Rican too
Ridin' on the wheels of hell
smokin' up our axle grease
oh the backstage is rockin' and we're coppin' from the local police
that's right the local police
or the justice of peace
But with all our style
you could see in our eyes
that we is still on trial
baby it's no surprize, no surprize, no surprize, no surprize
Rock and roll
junkie whore
got my foot inside the door
knock knock, knock knock, knock
nobody's keepin' score
Bad times go away

topaz and sassafraz
will keep the blues away
Candy store rock and roll
corporation jelly roll
play the singles it ain't me
it's programmed insanity
you ASCAP if BMI
could ever make a mountain fly
if Japanese can boil teas
then where the fuck's my royalties?

REMEMBER (WALKING IN THE SAND)
(Morton)
Seems like the other day
my baby went away
she went away 'cross the sea
it's been two years or so
since I saw my baby go
and then this letter came for me
It said that we was through
she found somebody new
oh, lemme think, lemme think, what shall I do?
oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no...
(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) the night was so exciting
(remember) her smile was so inviting
(remember) then she touched my cheek
(remember) with her fingertips
(remember) softly, softly we met with a kiss
Whatever happened to
that girl that I once knew
the girl that said she'd be true
oh, whatever happened to
that night I gave it to you
what will you do with it now
oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no...

CHEESE CAKE
(Tyler/Perry)
I met a babe in a backseat drive-in
back in the saddle she'd sit
pulled on the reins just to keep me risin'
she loved to chomp at the bit
Daddy do it, ooh, just do it
daddy do it, please let me see
do it, please just do it daddy
do it, do it, drivin' me crazy
She always walks with her eyes down on her bootlace
she lives to give it away
she don't believe in the right time or the wrong place
she's always liable to say
Daddy do it, ooh, just do it
daddy do it, please let me see
do it, please just do it daddy
do it, do it, drivin' me crazy
(cheese cake) looser than her sister
(cheese cake) mmm, her sugar gets me high
she knows I can't resist her (cheese cake)
got my fingers in her pie (cheese cake)
(cheese cake) sneakin' out the back door
(cheese cake) rollin' down the lawn
everybody's kissed her (cheese cake)
at the crack of dawn (cheese cake)
Daddy do it, ooh, just do it
daddy do it, please let me see
do it, please just do it daddy

THREE MILE SMILE
(Tyler/Perry)
Take a walk in the warm New England sun
ain't no time to look for clues

who be the hand that light the fuse
Take a look, take a look at my old billy goat
he used to raise all kinds of hell
he took a dose of radiation dope
back in the barn is where he fell, like hell
Lucy, chromosome

REEFER HEAD WOMAN
(Melrose/Bennett/Gillum)
I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky
I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky
Well, I gots to drink me two fifths of whiskey

When the good Lord made that woman

Ooh, when the good Lord made that woman

Well, when he was feelin' high

BONE TO BONE (CONEY ISLAND WHITE FISH BOY)
(Tyler/Perry)
Flatbush boy cruisin' sheepshead bay
his boardwalk mama just a sniff away
underground DMT ridin' thunder train
the coney island whitefish boy is on the run again
Ooh, runnin' with the pack
ooh, never lookin' back
ooh, knows just where he's been
that coney island whitefish boy's been there and back again
Sixteen years with his boardwalk queen
n' at steeplechase she used to wet his dreams
she combs her hair, that flaming jewel, streaked with clorox bleach

She'd be screamin' coney

she'd be screamin' coney
Get back in town
get back in town

Coney

THINK ABOUT IT
(Relf/McCarty/Page)
When will the clouds all blow it away
when will the good people have a say
now, I hope you're still around to see the day
Take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it
Who can tell what is up or down
who can believe a king or be the clown
then climb your tree, take a look around
Take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it
That which is now, will be again
who can decide, who is insane
Take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it
take a while, think about it

LIGHTNING STRIKES
(Supa)
The boys and the dukes are ready to rumble
the word on the street some heads are gonna tumble
blades gonna flash when the street gangs clash
in the avenue tonight
when the lightning strikes
Zip gun John his finger is itchin'
oh the lids gonna blow up in hell's kitchen
it's an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth
they're so ruthless when they fight
when the lightning strikes
There's a free-for-all in the parking lot
over who will rule the streets
and the night explodes when the cops bring on the heat
and the chains they crash like thunder
while the weak ones all retreat
gotta draw first blood or they'll read your funeral rights
when the lightning strikes
It's dog eat dog when ya meet your rival
in the combat zone it's your means of survival
gonna get last licks on a suicide blitz
on a cloak and dagger night
when the lightning strikes
There's a free-for-all in the parking lot
over who will rule the streets
and the night explodes when the cops bring on the heat
and the chains they crash like thunder
while the weak ones all retreat
gotta draw first blood or they'll read your funeral rights
When the lightning strikes
when the lightning strikes
can't you hear the thunder..

BOLIVIAN RAGAMUFFIN
(Steven Tyler/Jimmy Crespo)
Pack up your troubles in your old gym bag
you gotta dance to the tune of Bolivian Ragamuffin
I'll take short breaks, love her to the outbreaks
Standing on the seashore, lookin' at the city

the wax museum and nobody gets to see themselves
there's others care to see what nobody wants to be a baby
Can't break, cabbage head
try and get a salad made
hold my pickle, hold the lettuce
session waters don't upset us
Kick, stand, face look so evil, like Knieval
never make third base like a toilet bowl cleaner
like a squawk eight fool in I don't know orogotus
if I have to do rock a roller up a jello
Facial, connish lie
smoke a bowl of feeling fine
burn and people, try to let us
session waters won't upset us
Hee lee cans (Kick in the pants)
water fall (got on a dance)
blame it all (Say gotta eve us a trance)
ain't gonna do it
ain't gonna do it
ain't gonna do it
ain't gonna do it

PRELUDE TO JOANIE
(Tyler)
At first we three thought
'Twas the biblical cord of life
Then noticing 'twas connected
To his head
How strange
Not to be believed
I reached out to feel
And the pony's eyes they opened
The cord got hard
The head looked around
And you know who pushed and gushed
The waters of life
First two hooved feet
Then the shine of his fur
But at first to my eyes only
Feather - feather - wings
The butterflies flew up in such colors
Exploding all around us
The rest I did not see
Till there he stood
All eyes in wonder
Whe me - who you
Look
JOANIE'S BUTTERFLY
(Steven Tyler, Jimmy Crespo)
What a stormy night, when I met the pony,
it was so dark, that I could hardly see,
it smelled so sweet, you know who and Joanie,
so many butterflies, one could not see...
we all could feel desire, took off in flight,
it was hotter than fire, then came the light.
I smell the heat, the dancing ponies,
unwrapped his wings, to dry off Joanie,
the pony he grew in size, the thunder and rain,
and finally realized, what was, what it does, and what it come to say.
love to kiss the cheek of mother nature, nobody here can deni such things,
make the ladies you love come honey, no butterfly should be denied its
wings...
He was kick ass rocking horse! He was like a hell bent tied to the Gavin pole,
he was a one time fantasy, I got the bare bones riding to the Holy Land,
bare backed, riding like a running man, nightmares,
and he can't hold the candle to my dreams!
We rode the night, and took to wing, it was so all right, it was
everything,
we flew into burning skies, the thunder and rain, and finally realized,
what it is, what it does, and what it come to say!
No, no, no, no, took off in flight,
no, no, no, no, then came the light.
flashback, something's coming over me, no sweat one time fantasy.
bare bones all in the wind it seems, hell, who's the chick,
That rides into my dreams?
No Libury,
no stablize,
no one try to please,
nobody's eyes.
we'll never see us again, tell me when it passed,
let it all begin, but all of that time, somebody shot an arrow...
Being tempted by the time is never,
breaking me cause your cold sometimes...
being seduced by your own pleasures,
being king on your own time...
He was a kick ass rocking horse, he was a...
one horn, unicornucopia,
two, two in utopia,
three star, verge in to infinity,
four, four, ya... yaa hoo....

And oh my heart's done time
And oh now she's mine

And oh my heart's done time

Some babe's talkin' real loud
Talkin' all about the new crowd
Try and sell me an old dream
A new version of the old scene
Speak easy on the grape vine
Keep shufflin' the shoe shine
Old tin lizzy do it till you're dizzy
Give it all ya got until you're put out of your misery
Yes, I'm movin', Yes, I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
Tap dancing on a land mine
Yes, I'm movin', I'm really movin'
Yes, I'm movin', Yes, I'm movin'
Get ready for the big time
Get crazy on the moonshine
Yes, I'm movin', I'm really movin'
Sloe gin fizzy
Do it till you're dizzy
Give it all you got until you're put out of your misery
SIMORIAH
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
Walkin' the line of a razor's edge
Take it as far as she goes
Slice of the sky on a silver wedge
Higher and higher we go
OOO Simoriah
OOO Simoriah
Ladies in black put a spell on me
Feels like my head is going round and round
Round and upside down
Ladies in white ain't my cup of tea
So be it, I need it, long legs, big eyes
She drives me crazy
OOO Simoriah
OOO Simoriah
Countin' the eyes of the dragonfly
Callin' on dreams from within
She knows the way and she makes me high
So be it, I need it
Long hair, blue eyes
She drives me crazy
DUDE (LOOKS A LIKE A LADY)
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
Cruised into a bar on the shore
Her picture graced to grime on the door
She a long lost love at first bite
Baby maybe you're wrong, but you know it's all right
That's right
Backstage we're having the time
Of our lives until somebody say
Forgive me if I seem out of line
Then she whipped out her gun
Tried to blow me away
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
So never judge a book by it's cover
Or who you're going to love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a venus
Lord imagine my surprise
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
Dude look like a lady
What a funky lady
She like it like it like it like that
He was a lady
Baby let me follow you down
Let me take a peek dear
Baby let me follow you down
Do me, do me, do me all night
Baby let me follow you down
Turn the other cheek dear
Baby let me follow you down
Do me, do me, do me, sue me
ST. JOHN
(Tyler)
John was bad
He gave it everything he had
John he prayed
For all the people ever made
John was cool
He never did no after school
Late at night when he praised the Lord
He laid his hands down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down upon the sword
Lay down your bloody sword
John St. John be cool
Tell the people they'll follow you
John St. John be cool
Tell the people they'll follow you
Late at night when he praised the Lord
He lay his hands down upon the bloody sword
Laid down upon the sword, down, down, down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, gettin' down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, laid down upon the sword
Laid down upon the sword, "Late Night TV Roared"
HANGMAN JURY
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
Me and my old lady sittin' in the shade
Talkin' about the money that I ain't made
Singin' o boy dontcha line the
Track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track

If I could, I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses stood

O boy dontcha line the track
O boy dontcha line the track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track
Drank so much hooch

No hangman jury could make me crawl
Cause I'm a poor boy
Dontcha line the track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track
O boy dontcha line the track a lack a
OOO
Whacha do with the gun that's loaded
Shot her dead and her heart exploded
Tell me baby now d-dontcha worry
Like lying to a hangman jury
I swear I didn't know that 45 was loaded
In fact my memory ain't so clear
That's not to say she didn't get what she deserved
Least that's the way it looks from here
Boy when you line the track a lack a
Hey boy dontcha line the track
OOO my love came tumblin' down
OOO love came tumblin' down
OOO (Let's get outta here)
Love come tumblin'
And every night she take her thing
Into the city and in the mornin' make me beg cause
If I'd taken all her real titty gritty
I'd smack her right upside the head boy
Dontcha line the track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track
O boy dontcha line the track
OOO my love came tumblin' down
OOO love came tumblin' down
OOO love come tumblin'
Poor boy sweatin' in the hot summer night
Hangman waitin' for the early morning light
Singin' O boy dontcha line the track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track
O boy dontcha line the track a lack a
O boy dontcha line the track
If I could, I surely would
Stand on the rock that Moses done stood

GIRL KEEPS COMING APART
(Tyler/Perry)
She's right peculiar
She'll try and fool ya
But the girl keeps coming apart
She's so appealing
Right off the ceiling
Yeah, the girl keeps coming apart
What did I tell ya
She buy and sell ya
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart
She's so affected
I'm so rejected
And the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't let it get me down
Don't let it get me down
She's just a screamer
A nightmare dreamer
Yeah the girl keeps coming apart
She's like a call girl
Loose ends and all girl
But the girl keeps coming apart
White lace and leather
She's so together
But the girl keeps coming apart
I feel so sedated
Boxed up and crated
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't
Let it get me down
Don't let it get me down
So there she was
Buns up and kneelin'
I was wheelin' and a dealin'
My ace in the hole so to speak

You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give when I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby, baby

I got a letter from a friend the other morning
He say it's hot down in Montego Bay

I'm down (down on the ground)

Dude (Looks like a lady) - Single
ONCE IS ENOUGH
(Riche Supa)
Been lucked out, broke a woman's heart
With only myself to blame
Fate ran its course, I suffered a loss
I learned a lesson in pain
Cheated, lied, I took love for granted
Ooh, I paid the price
I won't last a night
I won't make the same mistake twice
Once is enough, it's one time too many
The changes are rough, ooo, once is enough
Love went through such sudden change
Taken a turn for the worst
The joy turned to fear, the pain got so severe
Lord, I thought I was cursed
Get what you give, it comes around full circle
Ooh, I paid the price
Love so fast
I won't make the same mistake twice
Once is enough, it's one time too many
Changes are rough, ooo, once is enough
Changes are rough, ooo, once is enough
Less than zero - Soundtrack

MONKEY ON MY BACK
(Tyler/Perry)
Woe is me

the wrinkles on her face about to crack
she said you best believe it, you ain't goin' nowhere
unless you get that monkey off your back
Well, I made believe the devil made me do it
I was the evil leader of the pack
you best believe I had it all and then I blew it
feedin' that fuckin' monkey on my back
Ahh, if you put it in a spoon man I would boot it
some king whose mental house was just a shack
where do you draw the line
when all your friends are dyin'
got to get that monkey off your back
Your crystal ball is where you chase the dragon
she said now bring me home his head inside a sack
but now you find your crystal balls are draggin'
got to get that monkey off your back

MY GIRL
(Tyler/Perry)
My girl, she breathes hellfire
and my girl, she feeds my desire
my girl Sadie she's the wind in my sails
a puss n' boots lady with a cat o' nine tails
comin' after you honey, feet don't fail me now
My girl, she's bareback rider
and my girl, she's Lady Godiva
she's a full-time lover no mon ami
sweeter than honey from a honey bee
and it all rubs off on little old me-oh-my
Slippin' in and out of love (4x)
My girl, she smokes barbed wire
and my girl can't get no higher
I made it with the lady with the one-track mind
diamonds in the rough they're so hard to find
day after day, the same old grind and grind and ...
My girl (8x)
My girl, she's bareback rider
and my girl, she's Lady Godiva

DON'T GET MAD, GET EVEN
(Tyler/Perry)
I'll tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
when you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
it's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
and you want to tell somebody but you got to be discreet
then you catch your girlfriend with her skirt hiked up to here
honey, don't get mad, get even
don't get mad, get even (3x)
say the times they be a-changin' though the blind lead the blind
you know your head is empty though there's somethin' on your mind
been shackin' up with Lucy, then when the morning comes
you're with Sally in the alley and the junkies and the bums
you wonder why your girlfriend has her skirt hiked up to here
honey, don't get mad, get even
Don't get mad, get even (3x)
(...'til I can see the white o' your eyes, baby...)
(...I'm gonna kick ass...)
(...just wait 'til you see what I got in store for you)
roll the dice get lucky 'cause they roll you for the dime
you got nothin' else to lose if you only lose your mind
when pleasure that is shallow causes trouble to be deep
you've been dusted with the devil while he sweeps you off your feet
I'll tell you little secret make you want to jump and shout
when you talk to me in circles take your foot out of your mouth
it's hard enough to make it when you're livin' on the street
and you hate to be a wiseguy when your feet are in concrete
oh, sleepin' with the dogs, and you wake up with the fleas
honey, don't get mad, get even
VOODOO MEDICINE MAN
(Tyler/Whitford)
***, I was left as a child
dragged from the cradle, I was weaned in the wild
ran with the wolfpack, flesh torn to shreds
in the compensations, I was left there for dead
Read it in the paper it ain't fair
you know who today don't seem to care
livin', lovin', gettin' loose
masturbatin' with a noose
now someone's kickin' out the chair
Some kind of voodoo
come across this land
some kind of voodoo
voodoo medicine man
Everybody's lookin' at the sky
don't believe the coverups and lies
they been tellin' us since birth
pissin' off old Mother Earth
my gones are bygones prophesied
Some kind of voodoo
come across this land
some kind of voodoo
voodoo medicine man
Get ready
Wonder should I go or should I stay
'cause what we got ain't workin' anyway
I did my best, God knows I tried
I feel like I been crucified
why did you take it all away
Voodoo, voodoo, medicine man (repeat)
WHAT IT TAKES
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
there goes my old girlfriend
well there's another diamond ring
and all those late night promises
I guess they don't mean a thing
so baby what's the story
did you find another man
is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made
when you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade away
I used to feel your fire
but now it's cold inside
and you're back on the street
like you didn't miss a beat, yeah
tell me what it takes to let you go
tell me how the pain's supposed to go
tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
without thinking you lost everything that was good
in your life to the toss of the dice
tell me what it takes to let you go
girl before I met you
I was F.I.N.E. fine
but your love made me a prisoner
yeah my heart's been doin' time
spent me up like money
well then you hung me out to dry
it was easy to keep all your lies in disguise
'cause you had me deep with the devil in your eyes
tell me that you're happy that you're on your own
tell me that it's better when you're all alone
tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
tell me you ain't dyin' when you're cryin' for me
tell me who's to blame for thinking twice (no no no no)
'cause I don't wanna burn in paradise
(let it go let it go ... )
Love in an elevator - Single
Riding a hurricane, tied to a ball and chain
Too much of a good good thing, it kind of stops you in your tracks
How did you ever get this far, now honey don't look back
And you best believing that all that's good is inside of you
Heh, inside of you, yeah
Ride on a carpet ride, high on the tears you cried
One's just too many but a thousands not enough
And you can't make up your mind playing blind mans bluff
And you best believing that all that's good is inside of you
Yeah, inside of you
It ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
Ain't enough, I got to have it now ain't it tough
It ain't enough, you got no misery 'cause it ain't enough
ain't enough, you got to have it cause it ain't enough
Oh sheeeit
You know another touch is easy, try and reach the sky
And though you can't get much more higher than you ever tried
When you die you're not forsaken
Best be taking tries of all the things that you're not taking
Ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
I got to have it ain't it tough
I got to have it
Ain't enough, I take it all but still it ain't enough
I got to have it
Ain't enough, you got no misery 'cause it ain't enough
Ain't enough, you got to have it cause it ain't enough
I got to have it
Ain't enough, I really got to have it
Ain't enough, I really got to have it
Ain't enough, I really got to have it

Hey, hey you! This is all a silly game!
Hey, hey you! Would your feelings sound the same?

HELTER SKELTER
(Lennon/McCartney)
when I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
'til I get to the bottom and I see you again
do you or don't you want me to love you
I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you
tell me tell me tell me the answer
you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
helter skelter (3X)
will you want you want me to make you
I'm comin' down fast but don't let me break you
tell me tell me tell me the answer
you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
helter skelter, look out
she's coming down fast
yes she is, yes she is
Get a grip
Wake up kids it's half past the youth
Ain't nothin really changin but the date
You're a grand slammer, but your no Babe Ruth
You got to learn how to relate, or you'll be swingin from the pearly gate
Yeah, I got all the answers, lo and behold I got the right key baby
But the wrong key hole-yo
EAT THE RICH
(Tyler, Perry, Vallance)
Well I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
And how I got to thinkin'
About all those things you said
About ordinary people
And how they make you sick
And if callin names kicks back on you
Then I hope this does the trick
'Cause I'm sick of your complainin'
About how many bills
And I'm sick of all your bitchin'
'Bout your poodles and your pills
And I just can't see no humor
About your way of life
And I think I can do more for you
With this here fork and knife
chorus:
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for more
Eat the Rich: I gotta get this off my chest
Eat the Rich: take one bite now, spit out the rest
So I called up my head shrinker
And told him what I done
He said you best go on a diet
Yeah I hope you have some fun
And a don't go burst a bubble
On rich folk who get rude
'Cause you won't get in no trouble
When you eats that kind of food
Now they're smoking up their junk bonds
And then they go get stiff
And they're dancing at the yacht club
With Muff and Uncle Biff
But there's one good thing that happens
When you toss your pearls to swine
Their attitudes may taste like shit
But go real good with wine
chorus
Believe in all the good things
That money just can't buy
Then you won't get no bellyache
From eatin' humble pie
I believe in rags to riches
Your inheritance won't last
So take your Grey Poupon my friend
And shove it up your ass!
chorus:
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for more
Eat the Rich: don't stop me now I'm goin' crazy
Eat the Rich: that's my idea of a good time baby
GET A GRIP
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
Chorus:
Got to get a grip
Skin and bones it ain't such a pity
If you think that I'm vain, better shut ya lip
I can't explain how to be a fat city
You gotta live large, better let it rip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Once upon a time I thought I was cool but I don't want to brag
Once I crossed the line I think I musta zigged when I shoulda zagged
chorus
Same old same old every day if things don't change you're just gonna rot
'Cause if you do what you've always done you'll always get what you always
got
chorus
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Who knows for sure yeah without a doubt
What goes on when the lights go out
Or who pulls in when I pull out
And what is a one-eyed trouser trout?
I was so shortsighted
Now the wrong been righted
I feel so delighted
I get so excited
chorus
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
You wanna get high in a New York minute
Choke that smoke, honey crack that whip
Your head gets dead
As long as you're in it
You wanna hang loose, gotta get a grip
Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
Don't cha gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
Ya gotta have stones if you're living in the city
If ya wanna hang loose gotta get a grip
FEVER
(Tyler/Perry)
I got a rip in my pants and a hole in my brand new shoes
I got a Margarita nose and a breath full of Mad Dog Booze
chorus: I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
Yeah they threw me outta jail I tell ya it ain't fair
I tried to kiss the judge from the electrica' chair
Yeah we're all here 'cause we're not all there tonight
The guitar's cranked and the bass man's blown a fuse
And when the whole gang bangs tell me then what's your excuse?
chorus
Fever gives ya lust with an appetite
It hits ya like the fangs from a rattlesnake bite
We're all here 'cause we're not all there tonight
We can't run away from trouble
There ain't no place that far
But if we do it right at the speed of light
There's the back seat of my car, caviar
I was feelin' so high I forgot what day
Now I'm feelin' low down even slow
Seems way to fast And now the booze don't work
'Cause the drugs ran out of gas
chorus
The buzz that you be gettin' from the
Crack don't last
I'd rather be O.D.in' on the
Crack of her ass
Yeah we're all here 'cause we're not
All there tonight
My first time ever lover
We fell asleep out on the lawn
And when I woke up I was all alone
Makin' love to the Crack of Dawn
So yo, I beg yo pardon sir,
The gangster of love rides again
You know I gotta chill
It gimme such a thrill
Like a burnin' plague
Yeah get outta my way
Fever may be Hell and a cross to bear
As long as I'm in heaven honey I don't care
You look so good baby look so fine
I tell you you're the image of a perfect crime
You get so tired holdin' on so tight
If you think you're goin' crazy
Well you may be right
chorus
Yeah we're all here 'cause we're not
All there that's right
LIVIN' ON THE EDGE
(Tyler/Perry/Hudson)
There's something wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes
We're seeing things in a different way
And God knows it ain't His
It sure ain't no surprise
We're livin' on the edge
There's something wrong with the world today
The light bulb's getting dim
There's a melt down in the sky
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
The mister you're a better man than I
chorus: We're livin on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication-aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
And even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'
Back again?
I think you would my friend
Again & again & again & again & again
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication-aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
And even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'
Back again?
I think you would my friend
Again & again & again & again
Something right with the world today
And everybody knows it's wrong
But we can tell 'em no or we can let it go
But I would rather be hanging on
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
FLESH
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
The day rolls in, the night rolls out
Desire rules without a doubt
The heart beats fast, you salivate
And when you come it won't be late
I guess by now you got the score
A little taste if you want it more
From San Antone to Marrakech
Yeah when the night comes
Everybody gotta have FLESH
You got me all soakin' wet
FLESH- the only thing that's worth the sweat
From the day that Eve did Adam
Down to Romeo and Juliet
Everybody gotta have . . .
The prince of lust has met his match
The witch has brewed the baddest batch
His sword is sharp and hard as stone
The cauldron begs for one more bone
And so my love, the story's told
From modern times to days of old
From Boston Mass, to Bangladesh
Yeah when the night comes
Everybody gotta have FLESH
It's got me all soakin' wet
FLESH- the only thing that's worth the sweat
From the Mississippi River
To the highest mountain in Tibet
Everybody gotta have . . .
FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet
FLESH - the only thing that's worth the sweat
FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet
FLESH - the only thing, the only thing, the only thing
From a Sufi in a rickshaw to a bimbo in a pink Corvette
Everybody gotta have . . .
WALK ON DOWN
(Perry)
You wonder why you got holes in your shoes
You wonder why they got more money than you
You wonder why you got nothin' to lose
It makes no sense, don't try to figure it out
You gotta . . . walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Yeah, huh
Well, she says that she loves ya
In your mind there's no doubt, but
You feel like a stranger
When the lights go out
As you lie there awake
You think this ain't no gift
Don't try to figure that weight's too heavy to lift
You gotta . . . walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
'Cause I got no time to lose
It's my life if I choose
Put on my walkin' shoes
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
SHUT UP AND DANCE
(Tyler/Perry/Jack Blades/Tommy Shaw)
chorus:
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Love has got me down
A tear just hit the ground
So I started writing you this song
But the words I wrote came out all wrong
Yeah, but it's all right
When you can't define the crime
Then life ain't worth a dime
When they take away everything you've got
And they rub your nose in the funky spot
Not without a fight
When they work your fingers to the bone
Now what does that get you--nothing
In a crowd of people
You're still alone
You hope that tells you something
The road to heaven is paved in hell
And it makes you wonder
Why we're here at all
Check out the shape of your circumstance
He wears the dress and she wears the pants
Here comes Jill and she needs romance
But you can't do jack so shut up and dance!
Sex is like a gun
You aim, you shoot, you run
When you're splittin' hairs with Mr. Clean
it's like getting head from a guillotine
And the night has just begun
chorus
CRYIN'
(Tyler/Perry/Rhodes)
There was a time
When I was so brokenhearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin' kind
All I want is someone I can't resist
I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do-down on me
Now there's not even breathin' room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah, I got to tell you one thing
It's been on my mind
Girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street
Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
It's a fire I can't resist
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do to me
'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
'Till you give your heart away
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' just to let you
Do what you do what you do down to me, baby, baby, baby
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do down to, down to, down to, down to
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Love is sweet
I was cryin' when I met you
GOTTA LOVE IT
(Tyler/Perry/Hudson)
Psychedelic sandwich
Any way that you can feel it
You shouldn't try to conceal it baby
You got to make up your mind
Any way I can steal it
Any way you can deal it to me
You know the pleasure's all mine You gotta love it
You better own it

And God knows it
You gotta shu uh shove it

One thing's for sure I ain't got time for those who cant relate
You gotta learn to love the midnight madness
You gotta revel in the good and badness
If yin 'n yang is your thing
What I gotta do to try and reach ya
Is it for real or just a double feature
So let's go throw the I Ching
You gotta love it
You better own it
You gotta love it
And God knows it
I'm gonna make things happen
Goin' 'round'n, 'round'n, round
CRAZY
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
Come 'ere baby
You know you drive me up the wall

CAN'T STOP MESSIN'
(Tyler/Perry/Blades/Shaw)
Sittin' at a stop sign
lookin' for a friend of mine
waitin' to salute the flag
talkin' to some he/she
slidin' over next to me
man, she said, this life is a drag
It's a shaky situation
and I'm hangin' on my will
and I get no satisfaction
from a hundred dollar bill
but I got what I came for
and I'll do it 'til I drop
you do what you want to do
I ain't never gonna stop
You say you got somethin' that makes you feel good
and you can't stop messin' with it
all your life you've been so misunderstood
'cause you can't stop messin' with it
Sittin' by the seashore
dreamin' 'bout a little more
circlin' the classifieds
nine seven six
man I need another fix
I'll never have to kiss the bride
Yeah, the city is a war zone
this country gone to hell
and the beer cans in the alley
from the rich folks on the hill
they're screamin' hallelujah
but I don't give a damn
'cause I got my own religion
yeah, it's right here in my hand
AMAZING
(Tyler/Supa)
I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave, but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin that I
Would die
chorus
It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be all right
It's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings
You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive
chorus
Livin' on the edge - Single
DON'T STOP
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
remember when somebody tried to tell you how to walk
and now they got the balls to tell us how we should talk
oh no, glove love ain't cool, I must agree
so get outta my face, you ain't got nothin' on me
some say they do, some say they don't, I take it in stride
and I can never get enough if I don't got to swallow my pride
I heard it all before and then she told me, gimme some slack
then she smiled at me and gave me the shirt right off her back
(and that's when I took advantage of the situation)
don't stop
rockin' your socks off
don't stop
knockin' their blocks off
don't stop
gettin' your rocks off
don't stop
takin' a hit, boy
don't stop
shakin' your fist, boy
don't stop
I ain't got much to lose
I'm feelin' so confused
there's such a small thin line between pleasure and pain
and when you say don't, then it's don't stop, I got to complain
(yeah) I think I may be gettin' real tired of all the steam
because it's hard to get the way you move out of my dreams
(got to get it while you can)
whenever you're in doubt
you got to whip it out
when you keep hearin' no and your body says yes
but you can't hear a word that's been said
but you gotta confess lookin' up her address
got you thinkin' with your other head

I never seen a smile that looked so sad
'cause you make me feel so good 'cause you're so bad
Hey little darlin'
your love is legendary
love's four letters
ain't in my dictionary
'scuse my position
but it ain't missionary
yeah, but I want to
walk on the water with you
Boo-tay
hotpants
tan line
sweet
hookah
boo-yah
knocked-up
hose down
cool cat
hot flash
When it comes to makin' love I ain't no hype
'cause I practice on a peach most every night
Hey little darlin'
your love is legendary
love's four letters
ain't in my dictionary
'scuse my position
but it ain't missionary
ah, but I want to
walk on the water with you
Well, the cook's in the kitchen
and hidin' the spoons
I'm winking at witches
and howlin' at the moon
I'm afraid of the candle
but live for the flame
you know who I am
but you don't know my name
Hey little darlin'
your love is legendary
love's four letters
it's almost fictionary
'scuse my position
but it ain't missionary
ah, but I want to
walk on the water with you
BLIND MAN
(Tyler/Perry/Rhodes)
I took a course in hallelujah
I went to night school for the blues
I took some stuff they said would cool ya
but nothing seemed to light my fuse
But it's all in the past
like a check that's in the mail
she was a tall whiskey glass
I was an old hound dog that just loved to chase his tail
Until I met a blind man
who taught me how to see
a blind man
who could change night into day
and if I can
I'm gonna make you come with me
because here comes the sun and we'll be chasing all the clouds away
I've had some lovers like a joy ride
some things are never what they seem
my heaven's turned into a landslide
I thank God I woke up from the dream
I met a blind man
who taught me how to see
a blind man
who could change night into day
and if I can
I'm gonna make you come with me
Because here comes the sun and we'll be chasing all the clouds
the way bees chase honey
and drink all the flowers dry
we'll be saving us a little money
and if that don't do it, yeah, I know the reason why
Don't make no sense lightin' candles
there's too much moonlight in our eyes
I met a blind man
who taught me how to see
a blind man
who could change night into day
and if I can
I'm gonna make you come with me
because here comes the sun
ain't no surprise
ain't no doubt about it
gonna open up your eyes
DEUCES ARE WILD
(Tyler/Vallance)
I love to look into your big brown eyes
they talk to me and seem to hypnotise
you say the things nobody dares to say
and I'm not about to let you fly away
My lover with no jet lag
we'll stay up all night in my sleepin' bag
you got a heart-beatin' rhythm from the subterrain
I really love you little girl, I don't need to explain
I love you 'cause your deuces are wild, girl
like a double shot of lovin' so fine
I been lovin' you since you was a child, girl
'cause you and me is two of a kind
Like deja vu I feel like I've been here
or somewhere else but you've been always near
it's you that's in my dreams I'm beggin' for
but I woke up when someone slammed the door
So hard I fell out of bed
screamin' mama's little baby loves shortnin' bread
and the moral of the story, I can testify
I get stoned on you girl, that's the best reason why
I love you 'cause your deuces are wild, girl
like a double shot of lovin' so fine
I been lovin' you since you was a child, girl
'cause you and me is two of a kind
Eat the rich - Single
HEAD FIRST
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
I was dancing down the sidewalk
Just some slam dunk that you might jive
And I wondered then 'bout his old girlfriend
Was she still around, still alive?
It's been years since my gears have been turning
Since I asked her same dice dance
How the flames of my poor heart been burnin'
If it's hate then this must be romance
Head first, baby, how the good time feelin' lingers
Ah, you can be all right on the wrong side of the street
I'm so hungry for love, I been lickin' off all my fingers
Oh yeah, you got to learn to take the bitter with the sweet
Ah
Yeah, I feel just like gettin' in trouble
By the hair on her chinny chin chin
And I love to get down on the stubble
With my teeth it'll taste like your grin, yeah yeah
Head first, baby, how the good time feelin' lingers
Ah, you can be all right on the wrong side of the street
I'm so hungry for love, I been lickin' off all my fingers
You got to learn to taste the bitter with the sweet, hey
Head first, baby, how the good time feelin' lingers
Ah, you can be all right on the wrong side of the street
I'm so hungry for love, I been lickin' off all my fingers
Oh yeah, you got to learn to take the bitter with the sweet
Ah
Nine Lives
NINE LIVES
(Tyler/Perry/Frederiksen)
Well well well
I feel just like I'm falling in love
There's a new cool
Some kind of verbooty
That fits me like a velvet glove
And it's cool
Shu bop a doo ba
She's talkin' to me Juba to jive
Yeah, the girl's in love
No doubt about it
The moment of truth has arrived
And in a wink
The funk was all around me
And I think, I'm dead in love again
Nine lives - Feelin' lucky
Nine lives - Live again
Nine Lives - It ain't over
Nine Lives - Live for ten
I got good luck
In certain situations
I'm feelin' like I hung the moon
And then at times
I'm so weak from lovin'
I couldn't even carry a tune
But now I'm back
Oh yes I am
I maybe fall apart at the seams
I had a nightmare
Believe me when I tell you
Nobody ever dies in their dreams
I think I need a stay of execution
In a wink, I'm dead in love again
Nine lives - Puss & booty
Nine lives - Live again
Nine lives - It ain't over
Nine lives - Live for ten
Well well well
Engine room to bombardier
Is this a dream
I died and went to heaven
She's enough to make you
Cry in your beer
How can a good thing
7 come 11
Slip into a face-thee-well
And how can one man's
Little bit o' Heaven
Turn into another man's Hell
I think I need a stay of execution
Yeah I know, I'm dead in love again
Nine lives - Hello lucky
Nine lives - Live again
Nine lives - It ain't over
Nine lives - Try for ten
Nine lives - Takin' over
Nine lives - Live again
Nine lives - It ain't over
Nine lives - Live for ten
Nine lives - Hello lucky
Nine lives - Live again
Nine lives - It ain't over
Nine lives - Live for ten
FALLING IN LOVE (IS SO HARD ON THE KNEES)
(Tyler/Perry/Ballard)
You're so bad, You're so bad, You're so good, So bad, You're so bad, So bad
You think you're in love, like it's a real sure thing
But every time you fall you get your ass in a sling
You used to be strong, but now it's ooh baby please
'Cause falling in love is so hard on the knees
You're so bad, you're so bad...
We was making love when you told me that you loved me
I thought ol' cupid he was taking aim
I was believer when you told me that you loved me
And then you called me someone else's name
There ain't gonna be no more beggin' you please
You know what I want, and it ain't one of these
You're bad to the bone, and your girlfriend agrees
That falling in love is so hard on the knees
You're so bad, you're so bad...
Chip of the old block
Man you're so much like your sister
My fantasize it must be out of luck
My old libido has been blowin' a transistor
I feel like I have been hit by a fuck
Yeah
I'm Jones'in' on love, Yeah I got the DT's
You say that we will
But there ain't no guarantees
I'm major in love, But in all minor keys
'Cause falling in love is so hard on the knees
What are you looking for
It's got to be hard core
Must be some kind of nouveau riche
Is this your only chance
Or some hypnotic trance
Let's get you on a tighter leash
Own it, own it, OWN IT
You're so bad, you're so bad...
You ain't that good, is what you said down to the letter
But you like the way I hold the microphone
Sometimes I'm good but when I'm bad I'm even better
Don't give me no lip, I've got enough on my own
There ain't gonna be no more beggin' you please
You know what I want, and it ain't one of these
You're bad to the bone, and your girlfriend agrees
That falling in love is so hard on the knees
I'm Jones'in' on love, Yeah I got the DT's
You say that we will yeah
But there ain't no guarantees
I'm major in love, But in all minor keys
'Cause falling in love is so hard on the knees
HOLE IN MY SOUL
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
I'm down a one-way street
With a one-night stand, with a one-track mind
Out in no-man's land
(The punishment sometimes don't seem to fit the crime)
Yeah there's a hole in my soul
But one thing I've learned
For every love letter written
There's another burned
(So you tell me how it's gonna be this time)
Is it over, is it over
'Cause I'm blowin' out the flame
Take a walk outside your mind
Tell me how it feels to be
The one who turns the knife inside of me
Take a look and you will find there's nothing there girl
Yeah I swear, I'm telling you girl yeah 'cause
There's a hole in my soul that's been killing me forever
It's a place where a garden never grows
There's a hole in my soul, yeah I should have known better
'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
I'm as dry as a seven-year drought
I got dust for tears
And I'm all tapped out
(Sometimes I feel broken and can't get fixed)
I know there's been all kinds of shoes underneath your bed
Now I sleep with my boots on but you're still in my head
(And something tells me this time I'm down to my last licks)
'Cause if it's over, then it's over
And it's driving me insane
Take a walk outside your mind
Tell me how it feels to be
The one who turns the knife inside of me
Take a look and you will find, there's nothing there girl
Yeah I swear, I'm telling you girl yeah 'cause
There's a hole in my soul that's been killing me forever
It's a place where a garden never grows
There's a hole in my soul, yeah I should have known better
'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
Is it over, yeah it's over
And I'm blowin' out the flame
Take a walk outside your mind
Tell me how it feels to be
The one who turns the knife inside of me
Take a look and you will find, there's nothing there girl
Yeah I swear, I'm telling you girl yeah 'cause
There's a hole in my soul that's been killing me forever
It's a place where a garden never grows
There's a hole in my soul, yeah I should have known better
'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
TASTE OF INDIA
(Tyler/Perry/Ballard)
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done
Oh yeah she's got that kind of love incense
That lives in her back room
And when it mixes with the funk
My friend, it turns into perfume
When you are born you're afraid of the darkness
And then you're afraid of the light
But I'm not afraid when I dance with my shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
To think of what I'll get tonight
Just lookin' for a little taste, taste of India
She'll steal the smile right of your face
Her yin and yang, is just the thing
She's unpredictable my friend
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done
It's like your first taste love of vindaloo
That sets your heart on fire
And if you let her stuff get into you
It will be all that you desire
When you make love to the sweet tantric priestess
You drink in the bliss of delight
But I'm not afraid when I dance with her shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
She's gonna whet my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste, taste of India
She'll steal the smile right of your face
She a friend of mine, she a concubine
The sweetest wine, I gotta make her mine
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done...
Just think of what I'll get tonight
She's gonna whet my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste, taste of India
She'll steal the smile right of your face
FULL CIRCLE
(Tyler/Perry/Hudson/Miller)
Yeah Yeah
If I could change the world
Like a fairy tale
I would drink the love
From your holy grail
I would start with love
Tell 'ol Beelzebub
To get outta town
'Cause you just lost your job
How did we get so affected ('cause I think)
Love is so reflected
Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise yo' drinkin' glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off, We got Hell to pay
Come full circle
And if
There's a spell on you that I could take away
I would do the deed
Yeah and by the way
Here's to Heaven knows
As the circle goes
It ain't right, I'm uptight
Yeah and get off my toes

But now I think the Karma cops are comin' after you
Time

Raise yo' drinkin' glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss Heaven off, We got Hell to pay

Every time you get yourself caught up inside
Of someone else's crazy dream
Own it, yeah that's a mistake
Everybody's gotta love nada killing them instead of killing time
Time

SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE
(Tyler/Perry/Frederiksen)
Cyberotic head explode
Information overload
And I just can't take anymore
And I'm gonna break
Something's gotta give
Tell me when to turn the screw
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Comic books are comin' true
Does the noise in my head bother you
Digerotic mass appeal
Feels like flesh but tastes unreal
And I'm gonna break
Something's gotta give
Tell me when to turn the screw
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Don't you like it, tell me true
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Hold your breath 'til you turn blue
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Comic books are comin' true
Does the noise in my head bother you
If love that seemed to fall from grace
Was sitting on your interface
Your megahertz she can't forgive
Your love it died before you ever lived
Something's gotta give
Tell me when to turn the screw
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Don't you like it, tell me true
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Hold your breath 'til you turn blue
Does the noise in my head bother you
Something's gotta give
Comic books are comin' true
Does the noise in my head bother you
AIN'T THAT A BITCH
(Tyler/Perry/Child)
Up in smoke you've lost another lover
As you take a hit off your last cigarette
Strung out, burnt out
Yeah you're down on your luck
And you don't give a...
'Til the best part of you starts to twitch
Ain't that a bitch
Freak out! I'm alone now
I feel just like I'm losin' my mind
'Cause love is like the right dress
On the wrong girl
You never know what you're gonna find
You think you're high and fine as wine
Then you wind up like a dog in a ditch
'Cause love is like the wrong turn
On a cold night...Yeah
Ain't that a bitch, ain't that a bitch
In a daze
In the throes of emotion
You see God In the Devil's eyes
Then you fall so far from grace
You wouldn't know a kiss
If it was on your face
You can tell it to the jury
But you ain't got no case
Freak out! I'm alone now
I feel just like I'm losin' my mind
'Cause love is like the right dress
On the wrong girl
You never know what you're gonna find
The gal was fine as calamine but not
Enough to scratch a seven year-itch
'Cause love is like the last licks
Outta Hendrix...yeah
Ain't that a bitch, ain't that a bitch
Then you feel so out of place
Lickin' up the arsenic
From the same old lace
You know the stuff is poison
But you gotta have a taste
You gotta
Freak out! I'm alone now
I feel just like I'm losin' my mind
'Cause love is like the right dress
On the wrong girl
You never know what you're gonna find
You think you're high and fine as wine
Then you wind up with your face in a ditch
'Cause love is like a warm gun
On a cold night...yeah
Ain't that a bitch, ain't that a bitch
THE FARM
(Tyler/Perry/Hudson/Dudas)
There's a cockroach in my coffee
There's a needle in my arm
And I feel like New York Cittay
Get me to the farm
Get me to the farm
Get me to the farm
Somebody get me to the farm
I got terminal uniqueness
I'm an egocentric man
I get caught up in my freakness
But I ain't no Peter Pan
Get me to the farm
Get me to the farm
Get me to the farm
Get me...
Buckle up straight jack
Sanity is such a drag
Jellybean thorazene
Transcendental jet lag
Sanity I ain't gotta
Feeling like a pinata
Sucker punch-blowin' lunch
Motherload-pigeonholed
I'm feeling like I'm gonna explode
I wanna be a Hare Krishna
Tattoo a dot right on my head
And the prozac is my fixer
I am the living dead
Take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Somebody take me to the farm
Somebody take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Somebody take me to the farm
Somebody take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Take me to the farm...
Take me to the farm
Take me to the farm
Somebody take me to the farm
CRASH
(Tyler/Perry/Hudson/Miller)
Sitting on a castle
On the floor with Ezmorelda
Waiting for the geezer
Captain Crunch to come around
Felling suicidal
'Coz of certain situations
Hanging from the stairs
Too long
I think I'm coming down
It's time to crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind
Yeah it's time to crash
Doin' tons of colon blow
Stuffing it in every hole
Miles high so am I
Watching jimi kiss the sky
Salle diner becomes a blur
With everybody jammin'
Republicans begin to sin
The batwings start a slamming
It's time to crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind
Maybe it's a little late but it's time to crash
You drive me crazy (x3)
Captain Billy Beemish
Put a lamb up on a rack
Thanks for coming billy
And we hope you're coming back
The castle will be waiting
For the next bangers and mash
Blanche and Marsha Reznick
Put their marmite with their hash
It's time to crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin my mind
Yeah it's time to crash
KISS YOUR PAST GOODBYE
(Tyler/Hudson)
Finders keepers losers weep
Down on 42nd street
Bare-foot children cryin' my-oh-my
I watched you on the avenue
While other men were having you
I think that you should let your caged bird fly
And kiss your past good-bye
Kiss your past good-bye
Kiss your past good-bye, yeah
Kiss your past good-bye
I've been so lost I must confess
I've had my share of loneliness
But yeah it's hard to keep a good man down
The loves you lost were all in vain
The past lives on inside your brain
I don't think you need those memories
Hangin' 'round, yeah
Goodbye
Kiss your past good-bye
You've gotta let it fly
Kiss your past good-bye, yeah
And if that bird don't fly away
There's just one thing I got to say
It's later than a deuce a ticks
Your broken heart, it needs a fix
You're feedin' off a high, that would not last
And people they don't seem to care
And sorry just don't cut it, yeah
It seems to me you're gettin' nowhere fast
So...Kiss...your...past
Or kiss your ass good-bye
Kiss your past good-bye
There's no more tears to cry
So kiss your past good-bye
Kiss your past goodbye
Or kiss your ass good-bye
Yeah
PINK
(Tyler/Ballard/Supa)
Pink it's my new obsession
Pink it's not even a question
Pink on the lips of your lover, 'cause
Pink is the love you discover
Pink as the bing on your cherry
Pink 'cause you are so very
Pink it's the color of passion
'Cause today it just goes with the fashion
Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light, and
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight
You could be my flamingo
'Coz pink is the new kinda lingo
Pink like a deco umbrella
It's kink - but you don't ever tell her
Pink it was love at first sight, and
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink gets me high as a kite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight
I want to be your lover
I wanna wrap you in rubber
As pink as the sheets that we lay on
Pink it's my favourite crayon, yeah
Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink it's like red but not quite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight
FALLING OFF (Only European version of Nine Lives)
(Tyler/Perry/Frederiksen)
I was a young man
Whose intentions were good
Kept my hands in my pockets
The way that I Should
I soon found out
They got a mind of their own
Beginning to think
I had a heart made of stone
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I try to remember
I try to forget
I'll keep my promise
Is that what I said
I had your number
But I didn't call
I got no excuse
I got my back to the wall
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
My eyes don't want to see
My ears don't want to hear
The things that make me feel
That keep me so endeared to you
It makes me think
Is that the best that I can do
It doesn't matter
The time that I fall
I'm up for the next one
Like I'm ten feet tall
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
I keep falling off
ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT
(Tyler/Perry/Frederiksen)
This girl that I knew
She loved me and blew me away
We made love no doubt
But she never went out of her way
I keep wonderin', I keep wonderin' why
Do the wings of your butterfly
Lightenin' thunder
I keep wonderin' why
Hey I think you need an attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
I got to make myself a latitude adjustment
With or without
I was rather naive
So I didn't believe when you said
Our love is in jail
Honey you hit the nail on the head
Well I keep wonderin', I keep wonderin' why
Do the wings of your butterfly
Lightenin' thunder
Ain't no wonderin' why
Hey I think you need an attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
Don't you ever baby, wonder where the lust went
With or without
Now I know what it is
'Cause I know what you are
No more cryin' eyes my friend
Excusem fuckin' moi
No more wonderin'
I got news for you
Hey I think you need an attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
I gots to make myself a latitude adjustment
I'm headin' south
Yeah I think you need an attitude adjustment
From inside out
FALLEN ANGELS
(Tyler/Perry/Supa)
There's a candle burning in the world tonight
For another child who vanished out of sight
And a heart is broken, another prayer in vain
There's a million tears that fill a sea of pain
Sometimes I stare out of my window
My thoughts all drift into space
Sometimes I wonder if there's a better place
(Tell me)
Where do fallen angels go
I just don't know
Where do fallen angels go
They keep falling
Now the time is frightening
Can't ignore the facts
There's so many people
Just slippin' through the cracks
So many ashes are scattered
So many rivers run dry
Sometimes your Heaven is Hell
And you don't know why
(So listen)
Where do fallen angels go
I just don't know
Where do fallen angels go
They just keep falling, falling, falling...
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Somewhere out there there's a shining light
And I got to be with you tonight
And with all we're nowhere
We still pay the price
Yeah the Devil seems to get his way
In downtown paradise
Where do fallen angels go
I just don't know
Where do fallen angels go
They keep falling, falling, falling
There's a candle burning...
Armageddon - Soundtrack
I DON'T WANT TO MISS A THING
(Diane Warren)
I could stay awake, just to hear you breathin'
watch you smile while you are sleepin'
while you're far away and dreamin'
I could spend my life, in this sweet surender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
every moment spend with you
is a moment I treasure
Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause I'd miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when I dream of you
the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
Lying close to you, feeling you're heart beating
and I'm wonderin' what you're dreamin'
wonderin' if it's me you're seeing
then I kiss your eyes
and thank God we're together
I just wanna stay with you, in this moment forever
forever and ever
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause I'd miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when I dream of you
the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you, right here with you
just like this
I just wanna hold you close
I feel your heart so close to mine
and you'll stay here in this moment
for all the rest of time
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'cause I'd miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
'cause even when I dream of you
the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
and I don't wanna miss a thing
[repeat chorus]
