Get down with the party. (Wanna hang). I'm the Big Kahuna I got the whole shebang. I got the champagne and the ha, ha. (Ah). You know who we are. . Get down with the party.
1. The Beginning. . [Instrumental]. . 2. Better Than This. . I've shed these tears a hundred times.. The bottles are broken, my well runs dry.. All these painful words make this much harder..
C'mon c'mon, c'mon c'mon. On those Saturdays when kids go out and play,. Yo I was up in my room I let the stereo blaze,. Wasn't faded, not jaded. Just a kid with a pad and pen and a big imagination..
Time to find your mind, I see you kickin' your rhyme. To be the boldest of a boring kind, I see you. They're coming to make you, the rhyme you find. Will be the stupid of a boring kind.
I found a treasure in you. A black coal diamond in the rough. I chipped away to find out. That there was nothin' here. Nothin' like I thought. No. . I learned that lesson slowly.
Emmy was a school gem. And she shot the shit with the best of them. And she used clean needles when she can. And if that veins down use the other one.
sitting beside the mirror. looking at the face he's always known. all he sees is a shadow of himself. an image covered in scars. . pain, suffering, all he's ever had.
Fold up my thoughts, tuck them away.. Drink for the pain, drink it away.. Turn the key that hides. The devil's tongue, the vicious side.. The surgeons cut is fine..
Drape the room in shades of grey. Over pastel greens they are running. Like the ours of the day,. Seemingly they run to nothing. . Burn the midnight oil,.
Come on baby - I want your milt. . Come back tomorrow, I won't be getting home till then. Come back tomorrow, we'll trip the light fantastic in my bed.
I have to clear my name. My name has been defamed. The bastards got me now, now. . I have to run away. It's been a feteful day. I'd better learn to pray, to pray.
Wait until the caller ends. The conversation with his mother. Then take his place inside the box. And plaster one wall then the other. Pictures do the work of words.
Running down to the water. It's a way to make sense of the day. there's a ghost in the harbour. telling tales of the years swept away. . That she sent to show me.
They were brothers (x2). But a cousin brother. Everything I know. yet they never looked alike. Everything they did,. they were together. What good hearted brothers.
Now it's a summer again yeah,. And it reminded me the olden days,. When we were told yeah,. it will rain on segregation (x2). Especially if you are black man.
Pull me in once again now. You've always got a hole on me. Take me in just to throw me out. You know it's only you I see. . 'Cause even with the lights down.
You're slaves to the dollar you say you hate. I don't want to be the best anymore. You all forgot how it feels to be wrong. Changing the world with coffee and wine.
Here I'm standing in the night. My crescent wand the only light. Alone against my darkest fear. But I sense my friends are near. I'll draw from each the power I need.
There are days when those gray skies. Make you blue. Each forward step you take. You fall back by two. You've been hit by some hard knocks. You just can't stand.
