Dirty letter |
Well I don't waste my time using pick up lines
Same old story of the useless kind
Till you came on to me and made me high
Hair, eyes and thighs money could not buy
You want me, you got me, I'm once again
Held to ransom by a hot vixen
You're the object of my desire
I'm cocked and loaded and I'm ready to fire
You're driving me wild with your wicked smile
You're driving me wild with your wicked style
You're driving me wild, can you take me higher?
You're driving me wild, sexual desire, desire
You sent me a dirty letter
And made things a little better
Thank you for your dirty letter
I'll always remember
Well I can't wait to see ya and it's alright
I'll be back in forty days and nights
Till then you're sticking in my mind
With those words, you thin red underline
My heart has been hijacked, I'm once again
Held to ransom by a hot kitten
You're the object of my desire
I'm cocked and loaded and I'm ready to fire
You're driving me wild with your wicked smile
You're driving me wild with your wicked style
You're driving me wild, can you take me higher?
You're driving me wild, sexual desire, desire
You sent me a dirty letter
And made things a little better
Thank you for your dirty letter
I'll always remember
I've been around so many places in the world
I've seen a lot of things and a lot of girls
But one thing I know is that I'm never satisfied
Except with you girl because you keep on tryin'
Come on !

I see the light |
I d like to share some blame with you
Anticipation of what you re gonna do
Selling lies you know can satisfy
Pull the trigger and watch the stars collide
An undercover lover yes I am
From a hulk of the damned
For secret satisfaction I m your man
You ll feel things for which I cannot plan
You ll see the light at the end of the tunnel again
But don t be fooled, it might be the sound of a diesel train
Bet you wished you knew how to play
Well for years I tell you the rules haven t changed
Attitude, confidence and brains
Get the moves and then you won t see light again
An undercover lover yes I am
From a hulk of heart-broken damned
For secret satisfaction I m your man
I feel things for which I could not plan
Well I see the light at the end of the tunnel again
But don t be fooled, it might be the sound of a diesel train
Down the line
We re on time
You re on my mind
Well I see the light at the end of the tunnel again
But don t be fooled, it s just the front of a diesel train

Heaven again |
Remember summer in Sydney and those Harbour lights
I knew you were dancing on the dirt more than once a night
An accidental early exit I will never forget
But your sun had set, did you have regrets?
I respect you lived your life without a safety net, now
Your eyes are watching over me girl
I know everything will be alright
Your life was always meant for my world
Despite something wasn t right
In time I ll see you again
Love is lost united in the end, now
Well I know I ll see you again
Love is lost, united in heaven again
I m sorry nobody heard you and your swan song
I still wish I could have been by your side when it all went wrong
Now I can t forget, and I won t loose it
I respect you lived your life without a safety net, now
Your eyes are watching over me girl
I know everything will be alright
Your life was always meant for my world
Despite something wasn t right
In time I ll see you again
When love is lost united in the end, now
I know I ll see you again
Love is lost, united in heaven again

Nobody's home |
Pressure s building up and you ve gotta see
I m telling you now that you re gonna break one day
You sit and smile into nothingness
Your makeup s run baby you re a walking mess
So baby hold on
Even though you re alone
I see the lights are on, yeah
But nobody s home
The doctor says that you re in need of drugs
You don t mind, cause you re all about that stuff
Yes you are
A rubber room a straight jacket
Shelters you from the world
Because baby well you can t, you cannot hack it
So baby hold on
Even though you re alone
I see the lights are on
But nobody, nobody s home
Hold on
Even though you re alone
I see the lights are on, yeah
But nobody s home
I can t tell you, what you re meant to think
My advice is, head out to a bar and grab a drink
The doctor says that you re in need of drugs
You don t mind, because you re all about that stuff
Yes you are
So baby hold on
Even though you re alone
I see the lights are on
But nobody, nobody s home
Well hold on
Even though you re alone
I see the lights are on, yeah
But nobody s home

Lady luck |
Are you sincere I should leave you here?
With the queen of the Nile all night
How about I deal you something girl?
That will keep you satisfied
The King of Fools with the Queen of Clubs
Ace and Black Jack s almost enough
Score a 10 for a royal flush
You know you ll feel endorphin s rush
You re holding all the cards for sure
As I raise your bet once more
Lady Luck didn t break my fall
Oh no!
You know you re being played by the game
You remain dazzled and mesmerized
Your friends have changed, you re still the same
The house wins every night
You re holding all the cards for sure
As I raise your bet once more
Lady Luck didn t break my fall
Oh no!
Well so don t tell me that you won t gamble tonight It s alright
Your addiction s leaving you itching for some more of that poker action
Flip em over so you re on display
Ambivalent confidence with regret
If you win this you ve got it made
You walk away with debt
You re holding all the cards for sure
As I raise your bet once more
Lady Luck didn t break my fall
Never hearing the last drinks call

Take a long line |
The angels's song |
He was selling postcards from a paper stand
a whiskey bottle in his withered hand
he put a finger on a photo from an old magazine
and saw himself in the shadow of his dream
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown
told him his feet stank and took him downtown
called him agitator, spy and thief
shut him up in solitary third degree
take a long line, reel him in...
He tried to appeal to the king of might
he said "I'm just excercising my sacred right"
Find more similar lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com/coothe king he said "You ain't got no rights
you're a madman, a traitor, get outta my sight"
take along line, reel him in...
They put him aboard a well wound whirlwind
pulled out his teeth and told him to grin
he gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine
and said "I never existed, you've been wasting your time"
take a long line, reel him in...

Sick again |
Jimmy left home bout 17
Pretty cute kid, with low self-esteem
And he just couldn t take it no more
He tried making his own life
Didn t work it out cause he hit all the ice
Now he s a crystal meth whore
Downhill slide into lifestyle suicide
I know I ve been here before
Been clean for 2 years now I m knocking on death s door
I ve tried my best to pretend
But I got that sick feeling again
Well I don t know why
And god can t tell me why
Why I started, well I got that sick feeling again
Pete said as he took a hit
Man I gotta habit I just can t quit
And my source is breaking down my door.
I tried methadone and all that funk
But nothing gives a high like high speed junk
He s just a smack freak trashed whore
Downhill slide into lifestyle suicide
I know I ve been here before
Been clean for 2 years now I m knocking on death s door
I ve tried my best to pretend
But I got that sick feeling again
Jade was real pretty and she came from the right wing side of the tracks
Channel shades and Gucci boots with designer lopez slacks
Heard the psiren song of the cold glass pipe
It said quench your thirst by sucking ice
But she can t understand why she s quarter to dead gOh she said

Expectations |
I didn't know what I wanted to be
I was expected to know what to do
School held no reality
I tried my best not to come unglued
And LSD was my ABC
A real job I was supposed to pursue
I failed math, couldn't count to three
The standards set by the baby boom
Expectations put on our lives
Suicide of pride
Can you hear the emotional cry
They don't realize
I went and tried university
Felt that I was expected to
But twenty years ago it was free
To get the skills to extract the truth
Education has rejected me
Budget cuts they behave so shrewd
Changed by the voting majority
Leaves a chocking system without a clue
Now I'm stuck and I just can't resist
Dirty veins cannot change the truth
I'm falling down with a psychosis
I feel like I'm the living proof

You fed me lies |
I don't know how you sleep at nigh with yourself
You said you wanted me there
Between the lines I read you loved someone else
And I didn't know if I cared
You made me feel so high you made me smile
In time I saw the lie of your disguise
You now know that I though for quite a while
Inside I can not forget
You fed me lies
You fed me lies
You fed me lies
You fed me lies
Make a decision on the crossroad of choice
Can't help but be of two minds
I'm sick of listening to your dulcet toned voice
Is it just a waste of time

Never say goodbye |
I told you to do what you want
Wasting your own time, taking a hard line
You will not turn me around
I got my reasons that you don't believe in
There's not a way to change me
So why don't we just agree to disagree?
I say loving is a gone, never ever say goodbye
You say whatever you want, never ever say goodbye to me
Never say goodbye, well I say it again
Never ever say goodbye, well I say it again
All we had was the touch
Well I'm not complaining, that's not what I'm saying
We both know it isn't enough
So let's take the pleasure, the last time together
There is no way to change this
So why don't we just agree to disagree?
You said loving is a gone, never ever say goodbye
I said whatever you want, never ever say goodbye to me
You've been slipping and sliding away
It's been fun but I can't sustain
Before the night is over I'd like to say
I know I can baby, but tell me can you take the pain?
There is no way to change me
So why don't we just agree to disagree?
I said loving is a gone, never ever say goodbye
You say whatever you want, never ever say goodbye to me

Highway dream |
Let me clarify just what I m talking about when I say we're ok
Fantasize the lies till they're truth and we're back on the highway
Because we want it, need it, working hard to get it baby
No if's, but's or maybe's
With a little bit of help outta Lynchberg Tennessee
No one can break us, and no one can fake us
And that s gonna take us to the highway dream
No one can break us, because of our blood trust
Committing us all to chase the highway dream, oh
Well let me tell you about the tour yeah
We re 30,000 feet, drunk in cramped seats, about to stumble out of the plane
Trolly dolly cuts us off, but we swear that the booze ain't to blame, oh no!
Because we want it, need it, we re drinking harder baby,
No if's, but's or maybe's
With a little bit of help out of Lynchberg Tennessee
No one can break us, and no one can fake us
And that s gonna take us to the highway dream
No one can break us, because of our blood trust
Committing us all to chase the highway dream
Well if you got a problem, take the Koritni model cause we're ok
Yeah we re slamming shots out of a whisky bottle all day
With a little bit of help outta Lynchberg Tennessee
Drinking black label jack, well you know that's alright with me
No one can break us, and no one can fake us
And that s gonna take us to the highway dream
No one can break us, because of our blood trust
Committing us all to chase the highway dream

Top of the world |
When I awake, it's often late
I sense catastrophe
I'm sure that I'll be feeling fine
So take a break from your social dates
Rest and recovery
No more air time and I'll be fine
I'm on top of the world, I know I cannot loose
I'm on top of the world, when I get close to you
I'm on top of the world, I'm broken and I'm bruised
I'm on top of the world, I'm not gonna move
Well I can't believe just what you said
No memories tonight
You pushed my pride right to sky high
And I'm feeling like my head just hit
Fistful of dynamite
The reaper's coming for my life

High voltage |
You ask me 'bout the clothes I wear
And you ask me why I grow my hair
And you ask me why I'm in a band
I dig doin' one night stands
You wanna see me do my thing
All you gotta do is plug me into high
I said high
High voltage rock 'n' roll
You ask me why I like to dance
And you ask me why I like to sing
And you ask me why I like to play
I got to get my kicks some way
You ask me what I'm all about
Come and let me hear you shout high
I said high
High voltage rock 'n' roll

Starving fast |
You re a hustler and you know it s true
As you re telling me telling me telling me that I m special to you
You re trying to sell the whole crowd a lie
As you sing the blues you borrowed while pretending to cry
You know that you ve dug your own grave
Now lay in what you have made gHey
I ve seen through all your tricks before
You re keeping on trying to tell me that you re giving it all
Your moral sign says I ll be safe in my lane
But you re dishing out the pain while you re hiding all your riches again
Well my mind ain t a free bordello
Pour my wine into your broken glass
Every time I bleed you swallow
Now I m starving fast
You tell me rules I should live by
You put your dissonant take of life inside theology lies
You ll have to find a bigger sucker than I
Cause I ve seen your crocodile tears and dramatic crying
Well you re stuck in a hole
What miracle will unfold?
You re knock knock knocking on my door
With creative telling and selling of stories I ve heard before
It don t make sense what other people believe
All the see is forest, when it s just fire wood to me
Well my mind ain t a free bordello
Pour my wine into your broken glass
Every time I bleed you swallow
Now I m starving fast
Well my mind ain t a free bordello
Put my dime into your broken glass
Every time I bleed you swallow
On a starving fast

Let it go |
Emotions run wild, when with you
No I can't help think of all we've been through
Well our times since then have been good enough
Except you, you said I've got to let it go
I'll always remember your breath on my face
We met at sun down and I just couldn't wait
I tried to hold on to what we had
Except you, you said I've got to let it go
Why don't you try and tell me
Why must I left everything go that we had
It doesn't come overnight
When you have worked this hard for it
Why must I left everything go that we had
It doesn't come overnight
When you have worked this hard for it
Now and then, when I still see you around
I'm sorry honey, I kept my two feet on the ground
You want me back, well there's no chance of that
Because you, you said I've got to let it go
Why don't you try and tell me
Yeah we worked hard for it
Yes we did now
No I'm not letting go

Red light joint |
Half a black bottle of Bourbon running through my veins
A bag full of candy in my head just to ease the pain
A red bandanna on my head for the sweat in my eyes
I head to a place that s a touch on the sleazy side
Well I roll a lucky seven, my eyes are all big and wide
Take the money and run, but that would be suicide
Pull out the stops, get a little bit of everything
Drink your shots, give it all that you got, don t know what tomorrow will bring
Down at the red light joint, they got a sign hanging out the front
It says you got the money, you got whatever you want
Well I cruise like celluloid star out of Hollywood
You know the drinks on the house, and everybody s got me feeling good
Now I m high as a kite in the spotlight rage till dawn
You know that Saturday s cool but I m strung out on Monday morn
Down at the red light joint, they got a sign hanging out the front
It says You got the money, you got whatever you want

Monkey business |
Skid row's song |
Outside my window there 's a
Whole lot of trouble comin '
The cartoon killers and the
Rag cover clones
Stack heels kickin ' rhythm
Of social circumcision
Can 't close the closet on
Shoe box full of bones
Kangaroo lady with her bourbon
in a pouch
Can 't afford the rental on
a bamboo couch
Collecting back her favors 'cause her
well is running dry
I know her act is terminal,
But she ain 't gonna die
Slim intoxicado drinkin ' dime
store hooch
Is always in a circle with his
part-time pooch
Little creepy 's playing dollies in the
New York rain
Thinkin ' Bowie 's just a knife
Ooh the pain
I ain 't seen the sun since I don 't
know when
The freaks come out at nine
And it 's twenty to ten
What 's this funk
That you call junk
To me it 's just monkey business
Blind man in the vox that will
probably die
The village kids laugh as they walk by
A psycho is on the edge of this human
garbage dump
And the vultures in the sewers
are telling
Him to jump
Into the fire from the frying pan
Tripping on his tounge
For a cool place to stand
Where 's this shade
That you 've got it made
To me it 's just monkey business
Monkey business
Slippin ' on the track
Monkey business
Jungle in black
Ain 't your business if I got
No monkey on my back
Monkey business
Slippin ' on the track
Monkey business
Jungle in black
Ain 't your business
If I gotMonkey 's on my back
The vaseline gypsies and silicone souls
Dressed to the society
Hypocrite heartbeat and cheap alibis
Can 't get you by that monkey

Under the overpass |
We made the plan of going out to have some fun
Drinking shooters now were loaded guns
(Premonition of the ground)
Catching the 366 bus heading to the beach
Moscow mules were young n wild in the streets
(I think I hear the don t walk sound )
A pick-up truck is a rumbling past
A concrete bed with a pillow of broken glass, under the overpass
Under the overpass, I m just sleeping
Under the overpass, that s where I lay my head
Under the overpass, you know I m just under the overpass
Well me and Luke were stumbling down the Avenue
Synapse road block gotta try break through
(Premonition of the ground)
I needed a pick me up, so fix me up a mirro
rLine it up and things are now looking clearer
(Think I hear the don t walk sound )
A pick-up truck is a rumbling past
A concrete bed with a pillow of broken glass, under the overpass
Under the overpass, I m just sleeping
Under the overpass, that s where I lay my head
Under the overpass, you know I m just under the overpass
Waking up in a taxi wondering where you are
Where is Lex? He s drinking at the bar
(But he won t be hanging around)
Realize I have lost my wallet and my keys
No phone credit, guess I ll sleep in the street
(Premonition s come true now)
A pick-up truck is a rumbling past
A concrete bed with a pillow of glass
A pick-up truck goes rumbling past
Concrete bed, pillow of broken glass
I m sleeping under the overpass
