You say you got me all figured out:
I wanna twist and you wanna shout.
You say it's a method you'd like to forget, and
Throw my trumpet case in back of my Chevette.
Uh-oh: Used to be all the time Cold Crush.
but now you wanna gimme the bum's rush.
You say get out before you have a fit,
baby, gimme some time to pack my shaving kit.
You say that, Darling, it's just no use,
"out-maneuvered, felt-up, and abused".
Uh-oh, used to be all the time Gold Rush.
but now, now you wanna gimme that bum's rush.
I'm gone for good this time, I'm good as gone this time. Uh-huh. You'll finally get your "calm",
Blink and yawn and I'm gone. Blink and yawn...
I'm good as gone this time, I'm gone for good this time. Ah-ha. Don't say "you told me so"...
Strip and roll, and I'm sold. Strip and roll...
I might come back in Spring, till then I'm chippyin'...
Ah-ha! A sucker steps aside...
Uh-oh. used to be all the time Cold Crush.
but now, Oh, now you wanna gimme the bum's rush...

Cut You From The Will
03:40
|
|||
|
Give you a shot of Slivovitz,
oh but you better not spill,
cuz if you do I'll cut your cool, girl
or even better yet still:
I'll cut you from the will
Give you a job to do,
you best do it right,
cuz if there's even one slip up,
don't go to sleep tonight.
Don't go to sleep tonight
But if you had your way,
you'd be hiding in some dark alley,
and when i walked on by, you'd switch your blade.
but when I pass you by,
I'd mistake you for One Sock Sally,
but if we got our way, the love would get made.
Give you some good advice,
oh but you better keep still
See Miss Alaska with her chin up?
I'll cut her from the will, I'll cut you from the will...
I'll cut you from the will
But if you had your way,
you'd be hiding in some dark alley,
and when i walked on by, you'd switch your blade.
but when I pass you by,
I'd mistake you for One Sock Sally,
but if we got our way, the love would get made.
I'm feelin better, J's just a letter,
my pistoletta's tucked behind my boot again...
I'm feelin ready, I'm makin confetti
with a diamond machete,
wonderin what's the scoop again?

Bronwyn
04:36
|
|||
|
I came from the belly of a Baltic beast.
hit the ground runnin' to say the least...
You fell off the back of a turnip truck,
tucked your tail between your legs and prayed for luck.
i met you on the way back home,
rum raisin drippin out of your ice cream cone.
hearing you moving put me in a zone:
the sound of your stillettos on the cobblestone.
You know its on when Bronwyn gives you a call.
You know its on and she can't wait to get a leg over...
(to get a leg over again)
i was a sucker for your portuguese grin,
livin' on a diet of gonzo and sin.
i wrote you about this in my best chickenscratch
made you hanker wicked for my wolf patch.
i got in a swedge with a couple of guys,
went back to my hotel and put a steak on my eye...
it was the funkiest shiner that you ever seen,
that's when i heard your voice on the message machine.
You know its on when Bronwyn gives you a call.
You know its on and she cant wait to get a leg over...
(to get a leg over again)
a star on your wrist and a star on your thigh,
you even had a couple of stars in your eyes...
I used to wish for it, to never end.
now i see that it was just some noise for pretend.
You know its on when Bronwyn gives you a call.
You know its on and she cant wait to get a leg over...
You know its wrong when blonde men
pick up the phone
and she goes on and on and on 'bout how it aint over...

Girls I Mean
03:25
|
|||
|
The girls I mean are not refined,
They come with boys who buck and bite,
they do not give a fuck for luck,
they hump them 13 times a night.
1 wears a hat upon her tit,
1 carves a cross on her behind,
they do not get atwit for wit,
the girls I mean are not refined.
The girls I mean are not refined,
they can not read and can not write,
they laugh like they would fall apart,
and masturbate with dynamite.
The girls I mean are not refined
they can not chat of that and this,
they do not ever get Spot's art,
they kill like you would take a piss.
They speak whatever's on their mind,
they do whatever's in their pants,
the girls I mean are not refined,
they shake the mountains when they dance...
They speak whatever's on their mind,
they do whatever's in their pants,
they laugh like they would fall apart
they shake the mountains when they dance...
The girls i mean are not refined.
Girls I mean.
girls I mean,

Diggin' The Dose
05:13
|
|||
|
You shot me a dose.
And now I dig it the most.
If It look like I just seen a ghost,
it's because I'm diggin' on the dose.
You gave me such a thrill
when you moved right in for the kill,
not like up on Blueberry Hill,
Got my love all crushed up like a pill.
I will cuz I would and I did cuz I could
watch the clouds with the moon in their mouth.
you do that very well, with the spit and caramel.
I'd walk for miles and miles just for a taste.
You shot me a dose.
Oh my, what a generous host.
They'll say "it's the autumn that brought him the most"
Now I'm diggin' deep and heaven knows...
I will cuz I would and I did cuz I could
watch the clouds and the moon make a face.
you do that oh so well, with the spit and caramel.
I'd walk for miles and miles just for a taste.
Just for a taste...

Rabbits White Rabbits
04:00
|
|||
|
You wanna know
what makes me go,
what makes me tick,
how i got sick: it's you.
Why don't you guess
why I said yes,
it's your red dress!
now i'm a mess: over you.
Just cause I wondered how it would be
to get your sweet ass sittin next to me.
Just cause I wondered how it would feel,
to kiss each other like its our last meal.
Rabbits White Rabbits, it doesn't mean
what you think it means anymore...
A crooked shiv
is how you live.
You always cut,
no matter what, oh yeah you do, you do...
I see your trick.
You cherry pick.
You pick a heart
to tear apart, and then you do. you do...
Just cause you showered me with Love, Like,
and Hate ...
when you came down to the Lower Forty Eight...
And yeah, I'd get lost in your angel's wings
when we would do one of my favorite things...
Rabbits White Rabbits, it doesn't mean what you think it means anymore...
(e ancora)

Orange Door
04:45
|
|||
|
We could roll it in to Chicago, and dig up the roots.
Love in the middle of a rodeo, so lace up them boots.
Crank the Tank up and away we go,
we'll beg and borrow and steal,
Kick your heels up in a rock steady joint, Babe,
and dance how you feel.
I can't believe you've never tried it before,
but you still got some time
find somebody that you really really dig on
and then lose your mind,
i can't believe you never tried it before
but you still gotch yer chance
find you a breezy with the pin-up bangs
and ask her to dance...
We could go fast but then try slow, untill the embers are blue
adjust my high but don't touch the low, cuz that would be rude.
getch yer rocks off in a social club,
just find a place in the back.
Show yer affection in a boxcar way,
(with) a punch and a smack...
I cant believe you never tried it before
but you still got some time,
find that someone that you really really dream of
and step out of time.
I cant believe you never tried it before
oh good god the nerve,
find you a brag bull, hoist him up by the belt,
then throw him a curve
Your knockin on my orange door,
Word on the street is you're bored.
Last time you knocked on my orange door,
you said you'd not done this before...
I can't believe you never tried it before
now yer fever is ripe.
ain't no shame in the side of the road
could be the love of your life.
i can't believe you never tried it before
but you still gotch yer chance
meet each other for a kiss by the well
(and) see who wears the pants.

|

|
We wanna get some of that Renegade Meat.
cause we ain't had nuthin to eat
in a while, seems like a week,
We'll be good, you won't hear a squeak...
We wanna get some of that Renegade Meat.
just a little something tasty to eat.
We wanna hear seventeen bells,
off the slab and back on the street...
It's no big deal, I just wanna score one hot meal,
and chew the jolly fat.
it's not so deep, I just gotta try to get some sleep.
so can you roger that?
We wanna get some of that Renegade stuff,
sometimes it seems like its never enough,
We flipped our wigs in the Burgundy Room,
Off the slab so fire up the spoon.
We wanna get some of that Renegade stuff,
we wanna play ya and see if you bluff...
You'll read about us all through the news.
Flexing thru velvet once I hand in my blues...
If you could betray, i wouldn' t mind it
if i heard you say:
"i'll show you two ways out of here"...
and if you don't mind, I'll take the fugitive kind:
a dark red tattooed tear...
I wanna get some of that Renegade Breath,
so gimme liberty or gimme my death,
we wanna drum to a murderous tune
called: on the slab just a little too soon.
So if you see me, out on the street,
come on and get some of this renegade meat,
we wanna butter you up for something big,
Listen up, sweet regards to the gig...

Girl On LSD
05:11

I was in in love with a girl on Marijuana.
she said if i'm not stoned then I dont wanna.
She got so paranoid, that her place i would avoid.
I was in love with a girl on Marijuana.
I was in love with a girl on Cocaine.
She had everything going for her but her brain.
We'd sit and talk for hours, but by the morning,
it'd go sour.
I was in love with a girl on Cocaine.
Chorus:
Through Ecstasy, Crystal Meth and Glue,
I've found no drug that compares to you.
All these pills and all this weed, I don't know just what I need.
I was in love with a girl on LSD.
She'd see things that I'd never see.
It broadened her perspective, but then
I got more selective.
I was in love with a girl on LSD.
I was in love with a girl who drank Beer.
Till bad breath and all she disappeared.
She was blowin up real bad, but when she left
i still got sad.
Chorus.
I was in love with a girl on China White.
We got married for a year one night.
Her memory still lingers, cuz that bitch
burned all my fingers.
I was in love with a girl on China White.
I was in love with a girl who drank Coffee.
There were times when I couldnt keep her off me.
That caffeine got her goin' but her ugly side
was showin'...
I was in love with a girl who drank Coffee.
Chorus.
I was in love with a girl on Quaaludes.
She'd get mad when I'd make love to her boobs.
But what's a guy to do when he's gotta titty screw?
I was in love with a girl on Quaaludes.
I was in love with a girl who was a Dealer.
I was afraid that someone would come at
night and steal her.
Well we never used to fight but the goddam
phone'd ring day and nite.
I was in love with a girl who was a Dealer.

40 Karat
04:19
|

|
I took an axe to a 40 Karat,
I cut that som-bitch in half so we could share it.
I wanna check out your apartment , your place.
I wanna kiss you on the lips of the face.
I wanna take you to another planet
I wanna sweep you off your feet till you goddammit.
I wanna deck you out in rubies so pricey,
I wanna lay you next to Gingi and Icey.
Ooo. split it in half. leave your autograph.
I wanna serve you up an a la carte
of all your favorite pieces and parts,
I wanna show you that I'm nobody's fool.
I wanna show you that I'm Strong like Bull.
Ooo. split in half. it only hurts when I laugh.
I took an axe to a 40 Karat, I cut that sucker in half
so we could share it.
I pray for peace in the middle east, and for a piece
of your little crease.
I wanna take you to an ethnic potluck,
so you can see how a crook and a cop fuck~
Float the river Nile while we Daka/Dakini,
deck you out in vinyl in the shape of bikini,
that would really make me lose my cool,
would you still love me while i shiver and drool?
I wanna get you right away to the Bahamas,
where you can start to be my baby's mama.
I wanna find a moonlit place with Keshama
where I can make her some saliva Pajamas.
Ooo. split in half. all over the gaff.
>>>I wanna take you to the Straits of Gibraltar,
and sacrifice you up on an altar.
I wanna slice you up (and) have you for lunch,
guess I drank too much of the donkey punch.
I wanna take you to the Tropic of Cancer
make you in to my little private belly dancer.
You be the Henry and I'll be the Miller,
you be the Victim and i'll be the Killer.

A Lover Is Forever
03:49
|
|||
|
I think I understand the reason you
won't stay with me.
You think a ring upon your hand will solve
your insecurity.
So go ahead and play your games
if that's what you must do.
Nothing here remains the same,
but the way I feel for you.
I can watch you walk away and I know I'll get by,
and I know just what to say, but honey,
I can't tell a lie.
So figure out what you must do, because you think you're so damn clever.
You can marry any time you want,
but a lover is forever.
You can marry any time you want,
but a lover is forever.

It All Reduces Down
04:27
|
|||
|
A piece of pipe where my bones used to be.
come on and break off some of this PVC.
I like to scream, I like to shout.
Some people'd like to see my tongue get ripped out.
Cut out my heart in the 11th hour.
Replaced it with a piece of sweet and sour.
I'm in to flavor but that shit ain't right.
I wore wayfarers when my future looked bright.
So take this sitting down.
It all reduces down.
It's just a simple fact.
It all reduces down to the base act...
You're trained to kill and you don't like my ears,
You've been doing this for thousands of years.
So pull the trigger; see what it release.
It's natural to make a masterpiece,
so that's what I'll do.
So take this sitting down.
It all reduces down.
It's just a simple fact.
It all reduces down to the base act...
So will you know me when you next see my face?
since my fall from physical grace...
I like to scream, I like to shout.
Some people'd like to see my tongue get ripped out.
oh oh oh.
