Rock-a-bye baby if you want to dance

Grab yourself a body and take a chance

They say one time around is all you get

But I'm still dancin' so you lost your bet

I got a hardcore mama with a hot hoochie coo

Make my wheels start spinnin' like a formula 2



I got one for the money

Two for the show

Three for my honey

And four to let you know that I...



Let the music do the talking (4 x's)



Cheese cake maybe if I take another bite

I'm a real fat city I'm an aero delight

Threw out my pipe and my alkaline

Got a squeaky clean body and a dirty mind

I'm a real fine dancer I'll be cutting rug

Got my brand new baby she's my brand new drug
				

Wake up baby, what you in for

Start the day upon your knees

What you pissin' in the wind for

You musta snorted too much bleas

East house pinball wizard

Junior achievers, got the old bull by the horns

Back in the saddle gets you sore



My fist your face

Met a woman, she had a man

Couldn't help it, I had a plan

Right around midnight he was gone

Saw her red light, she left it on



And oh my heart's done time

And oh, now she's mine



If there's a reason for these chains

It's like we suffer to ease the pain

Now I got this feelin' inside of me

My heart's in jail and I can't break free



And oh my heart's done time

And oh now she's mine

Now she's mine

Now she's mine

Now she's mine

Now she's mine



And oh my heart's done time

And oh now she's mine

Now she's mine

Now she's mine

Now she's mine

That, that dude looks like a lady

Cruise into a bar on hte shore

Her picture graced the grime on the door

She's a long lost love at first bite

Baby maybe you're wrong but you know it's all right

That's right



That, that

That, that



Backstage we're havin' the time

of our live until somebody say

Forgive me if I seem out of line

Then she whipped out her gun and tried to blow me away!



Chorus



Never judge a book by it's cover

or who you gonna love by your lover

Sayin' love put me wise to her love in disguise

She had the body of a Venus, Lord imagine my surprise.



Chorus



So 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)

I'm alone

Yeah, I don't know if I can face the night

I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do is for you

I want your love - Let's break the walls between us

Don't make it tough - I'll put away my pride

Enough's enough I've suffered and I've seen the light



Chorus:

Baby

You're my angel

Come and save me tonight

You're my angel

Come and make it all right



Don't know what I'm gonna do

About this feeling inside

Yes it's true - Loneliness took me for a ride

Without your love - I'm nothing but a begger

Without your love - a dog without a bone

What can I do I'm sleeping in this bed alone



Chorus

Come and save me tonight



You're the reason I live

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

Chorus



You're my angel

Come and save me tonight

Come and take me allright

Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight

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

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



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 a lack a

O boy dontcha line the track



If I could, I surely would

Stand on the rock that Moses done stood

I got a letter from a friend the other morning

He say it's hot down in Montego Bay

I got the point and now I think it's finally dawning

The girl's be cummin' down in Cayman Brack

I gotta hand it to a firm situation

Yeah, yeah, I got to cut me some slack

My mamma told me there'd be days like this

And man she wasn't foolin'

'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss

Uh uh huh

You opened up your mouth with baited breath

You said you'd never leave me.

You love me, you hate me, I tried to take the loss

You're cryin' me a river but I got to get across



Chorus



I'm lookin' for another kind of love

Oh Lordy, how I need it.

The kind that likes to leap without a shove

Oh, honey, best believe it.

To save a lot of time and foolish pride I'll say what's on my mind, girl

You loved me, you hate me, you cut me down to size.

You blinded me with love and yeah it opened up my eyes



Lovin' you has got to be (take me to the other side)

like the devil and the deep blue sea (take me to the other side)

My conscience got to be my guide (take me to the other side)

Oh honey take me, take, take, take, take, take

I'm lookin' for another kind of love

Oh Lordy, how I need it.

The kind that likes to leap without a shove

Honey, best you believe it.

You know you had it comin' girl so take me to the other side

Take me to the other side, take me to the other side



Lovin' you has got to be (take me to the other side)

There goes my old girlfriend, there's another diamond ring

And, uh, 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



Chorus:

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.



Yeah

Girl, before I met you I was F.I.N.E. Fine

but your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart's been doing time

You spent me up like money, then you hung me out to dry

It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise

'Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes



Chorus

Guitar!



Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own Yeah, yeah, yeah

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



Chorus



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 who's to blame for thinkin' twice

No no no no 'cause I don't wanna burn in paradise

Ooo Let go, let go, let go,

Woe is me

the fortune teller looked into my eyeballs

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
				

Workin' like a dog for the boss man

Workin' for the company

I really need a girl like an open book

To read between the lines

Love in an elevator

Lovin' it up when I'm goin' down

How did you ever get this far, now honey don't look back

And you best beleiving that all that's good is inside of you

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, walk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, walk this way
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 neighbor with a daughter had a favor
so I gave her just 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'
when she told me how to walk this way, she told me to

walk this way, talk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, walk this way
walk this way, talk this way
just gimme a kiss
like this! 
				

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 a 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 humour

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 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 I told him what I'd done

Said you'd best go on a diet

Yeah I hope you have some fun

And a don't go burst a bubble

On the rich folks who get rude

ÔCause you won't get in no trouble

When you eats that kinda food

Now their smokin' up the junk bonds

And then they go get stiff

And they're dancin' in 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



Wake up kid, it's half past your youth

Ain't nothin' really changes but the date

You a grand slammer, but you no Babe Ruth

You gotta learn how to relate

Or you'll be swingin' from the pearly gate

Now you got all the answers, low and behold

You got the right key baby but the wrong key ho, yo



Believe in all the good things

That money just can't buy

Then you won't get no belly ache

From eatin' humble pie

I believe in rags to riches

Your inheritence 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 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
				

Ah yeah

Love me two time baby

Love me twice today

Love me two time girl

I'm goin' away

Love me two time girl

Once for tomorrow, once just for today

Love me two time I'm goin' away

Love me one time, girl

I could not speak

Love me one time, baby

You know my knees got weak

Love me two time girl

Love me all through the week

Love me two times I'm goin' away

Love me two times I'm goin' away

Yeah

Love me one time

Could not speak

Love me one time, baby

You know my knees got weak

Love me two time girl

Love me all through the week

Love me two times I'm goin' away

Love me two time baby

Love me twice today

Love me two time baby

Well I'm goin' away

Love me two time girl

Once for tomorrow, once just for today

Love me two times I'm goin' away, yeah

Love me two times I'm goin' away

Love me two times I'm goin' away, yeah
				

I was dancin' down the sidewalks

To some slam dunk juke box jive

And I wondered then 'bout this old girl friend

Was she still around still alive



Head first baby how the good time feelin' lingers

You can be alright on the wrong side of the street

I'm so hungry for love I be lickin' off all my fingers

But first you gotta learn to talk the bitter with the sweet



It's been years since my gears have been turnin'

Since I asked her to St. Vitas dance

Have 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

You can be alright on the wrong side of the street

I'm so hungry for love I be lickin' off all my fingers

But first you gotta learn to talk the bitter with the sweet



Yeah I feel just like gettin' in trouble

By the hair on her chinny chin chin

And I love to get down on her stubble

With my teeth in a Cheshire grin



Head first baby how the good time feelin' lingers

You can be alright on the wrong side of the street

I'm so hungry for love I be lickin' off all my fingers

But first you gotta learn to talk the bitter with the sweet
				

There's somethin' wrong with the world today

I don't know what it is

Something's wrong with our eyes



We're seein' things in a different way

And God knows it ain't his

It shore ain't no surprise



Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge



There's somethin' wrong with the world today

The light bulb's gettin dim

There's meltdown in the sky



If you can judge a wise man

By the color of his skin

Then mister you're a better man than I



Chorus:

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 sit-u-a-tion

Complication - aggravation

Is getting to you



If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'

Even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'

Back again

I bet you would my friend

Again & again & again & again & again



Tell me what you think about your sit-u-a-tion

Complication - aggravation

Is getting to you



If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'

Even if it was would you still come crawlin'

Back again

I bet 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 could let it go

But I'd would rather be a hanging on

Chorus



Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Livin' on the edge

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Chorus



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

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Livin' on the edge

You can't help yourself from fallin'
				

Remember when somebody tried to tell you how to walk

And now they got the balls to tell us how we should talk

Though no glove love ain't cool I must agree

So get outta my face ya' ain't got nothin' on me



Some say they do and some say they don't

I take it in stride

And I can never get enough if I don't have to

Swallow my pride

I heard it all before and then she told me

'Give me some slack'

And then she smiled at me and gave me the shirt

Right off her back

(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' the hit boy

Don't stop shakin' your fist boy

Don't stop then give 'em this boy (the finger)



Ain't got much to lose

I'm feelin so confused



There's such a small thin line between

Pleasure and pain

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 schemes

Because its hard to get the way you move out of my dreams.

(You gots to get it while you can)



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' the hit boy

Don't stop shakin' your fist boy

Don't stop then give 'em this boy (the finger)

Whenever you're in doubt

You gots to whip it out!



When you keep hearin' no

And your body says yes

And 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

(Hah hah hah hah hah)

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' the hit boy

Don't stop shakin' your fist boy

Don't stop givin' 'em this boy (the finger)



Don't stop diggin' the hits boy

Don't stop its as good as it gets boy

Don't stop squeezin' the tits boy
				

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
				

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 alright

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, oh yeah

I was out on the street,

Just tryin' to survive

Scratchin' to stay

Alive

Chorus



Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
				

There was a time

When I was so broken hearted

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

Now listen

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

Your 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

If you give your heart away



I was cryin' when I met you

Now I'm tryin' to forget you

Your 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

Your love is sweet misery

I was cryin' when I met 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 dyin' to forget you

Your love is sweet

I was cryin' when I met you

(fade)
				

Come Here baby

You know you drive me up a wall

the way you make good on all the nasty tricks you pull

Seems like we're makin' up more than we're makin' love

And it always seems you got somn' on your mind other than me

Girl, you got to change your crazy ways

You hear me



Say you're leavin' on a seven thirty train

and that you're headin' out to Hollywood

Girl you been givin' me that line so many times

it kinda gets like feelin' bad looks good



That kinda lovin'

Turns a man to a slave

That kinda lovin'

Sends a man right to his grave...



Chorus:

I go crazy, crazy, baby, I go crazy

You turn it on

Then you're gone

Yeah you drive me

Crazy, crazy, crazy, for you baby

What can I do, honey

I feel like the color blue...



You're packin' up your stuff and talkin' like it's tough

and tryin' to tell me that it's time to go

But I know you ain't wearin' nothin' underneath that overcoat

And it's all a show



That kind of lovin'

Makes me wanna pull

Down the shade, yeah

That kind of lovin'

Yeah now I'm never, never, never, never gonna be the same

Chorus



I'm losin' my mind, girl

'Cause I'm goin' crazy



I need your love, honey

I need your love



Crazy, crazy, crazy, I go crazy

You turn it on

Then you're gone

Yeah you drive me

Crazy, crazy, crazy, for you baby

I'm losin' my mind, girl

Cause I'm goin' crazy

Crazy, crazy, crazy for you baby

You turn it on, then your gone

Yeah you drive me
				

Chorus:

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance

Don't get deep, shut up and dance



Love has got me down

The weight is all around

So you lend a hand to peace on earth

Here's my piece, now what's it worth

Yea, 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 got

And they rub your nose in the funky spot

Not without a fight



When you work your fingers to the bone

And what does that get you--NOTHING

If in a crowd of people

You're still alone

I hope that tells you something



The road to heaven is paved in hell

And it makes you wonder

Why you'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' like gettin head from a guillotine

And the night has just begun

Chorus
				

Ahhh, I love to look into your big brown eyes

They talk to me and seem to hypnotize

They say the things nobody dares to say

And I'm not about to let you fly away



My lover with no jet lag

We're stayin up all night in my sleeping bag

You got a heart beatin' rhythm

From the subterranean

I really love you little girl

I don't need to explain



Chorus:

I love you cause your Deuces are Wild girl

Like a double shot of love is so fine

I been lovin' you since you was a child girl

Cause you an' me is two of a kind



Ahhh, like deja vu I feel like I been here

Or somewhere else but you 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 outta 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



Chorus
				

High class

moolah

bolt ons

fast car

quick fix

freak out

nose bleed

skull cap

pissed off

pissed on

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 postion

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
				

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

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

because here comes the sun

ain't no surprise

ain't no doubt about it

gonna open up your eyes
				

You're so bad you're so bad you're so

You're so bad you're 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 you're so

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 you're so

You're so bad you're so bad



Chip off the old block

Man you're so much like your sister

My fantasize it must be out of luck

My old libido has been blowing a transistor

I feel like I have been hit by a fuck



Yeah



I'm Jonesin' 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're so

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 I¹m good but when I'm bad

I'm even better

Don't give me no lip

I've got enough of 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 Jonesin¹ on love

Yeah I got the DT's

You say that we will yeah

But there ain¹t no guarantees

I¹m major in love

But in all minor keys

ŒCause falling in love is so hard on the knees
				

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)
				

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 one burned

(So you tell me how it's gonna be this time)



Is it over

Is it over

ŒCause 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 broke 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

There¹s nothing there girl yeah I swear

I¹m telling you girl, yeah,

ŒCause there¹s a hole in my soul

That¹s been killing me forever

It¹s a place where a garden never grows

There¹s a hole in my soul

Yeah, I should have known better

ŒCause your love¹s like a thorn

Without a rose



Is it over

Yeah it¹s over

And I¹m blowin¹ 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

There¹s nothing there girl yeah I swear

I¹m telling you girl, yeah,

ŒCause there¹s a hole in my soul

That¹s been killing me forever

It¹s a place where a garden never grows

There¹s a hole in my soul

Yeah, I should have known better

ŒCause your love¹s like a thorn

Without a rose
				

Talk about things and nobody cares

Wearing other things that nobody wears

Ya callin' my name, but I gotta make it clear

Can't say where I'm gonna be in a year.



Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent

Said my get up and go musta got up & went.

You got good news but you're a real good liar

Cause backstage lover set your pants on fire.

Riff 8x, then sweet emotion 2x

Pulled into town in a police car

Your daddy said I took you just a little too far.

Tellin' other things, but your girlfriend lied

Can't catch me cause the rabbit done died.



Standin' in front just shakin' your ass.

Take you back stage you can drink from my glass.

Talk about something you can sure understand

Cause a month on the road and i'll be eatin' from your hand.
