Nine Lives

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

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, you're so

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, you're so

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

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

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

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 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 Jonesin' 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

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
'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 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
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

Goodnight Taj
Goodnight Chelsea

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, a taste of India
She'll steal the smile right off 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 a 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, a taste of India
She'll steal the smile right off your face

She friend of mine
She 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, a taste of India
She'll steal the smile right off your face

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 love reflected

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your 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

I used to think that every little thing I did was crazy
But now I think the Karma Cops are comin' after you

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your 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

Every time you get yourself caught up inside of
Someone else's crazy dream
Own it, yeah that's a mistake
Everybody's gotta lotta nada killing them
Instead of killing time

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your drinkin' glass
Here's to yesterday
In time
We're all gonna trip away
Don't piss heaven off
We got hell to pay

Time
Don't let it slip away
Raise your 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

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?

Up in smoke you 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 huh
Till 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 a wrong turn
On a cold night
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 girl was fine as calamine, but not
Enough to scratch a seven year itch
'Cause love is like the last licks
Outta Hendrix
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 the ditch
'Cause love is like a warm gun
On a cold night
Ain't that a bitch
Ain't that a bitch

There's a cockroach in my coffee
There's a needle in my arm
And I feel like New York City
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 thorazine
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

Yeah, shave my head
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
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

Sitting on a castle
On the floor with Esmeralda
Waiting for the geezer
Captain Crunch to come around
Feeling suicidal
'Cause 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
Crashing
It's time to crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind
It's time to crash
Crashing

Doin' tons of colon blow
Stuffing it in every hole
Miles high so am I
Watching Jimi kiss the sky
Salle dinner 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
It's time to crash
Crashing
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
Crashing

You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy
You drive me crazy

Captain Billy Beemish
Put a lamb up on a rack
Thanks for coming Billy
And we hope you're comin' back
The castle will be waiting
For the next bangers and mash
Blanche and Marsha Reznick
Put their marmite with their hash

Crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind
Yeah it's time to crash
Crashing
Crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind
Yeah, crash
Crashing
It's time to crash
Losin' my mind, losin' my mind, losin' my mind

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 havin' you
I think that you should let your caged bird fly

And kiss your past goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye

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

Goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
You gotta let it fly
Kiss your past goodbye

Ooh, kiss your past goodbye

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 goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
There's no more tears to cry
So kiss your past goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
Or kiss your ass goodbye

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
'Cause 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 favorite crayon

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

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
Lightnin' thunderin'
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
Lightnin' thunderin'
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
Excusez-m-fuckin'-oi

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

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

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 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 times 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 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

Where do fallen angels go, tell me
I just don't know
Where do fallen angels go?
They keep falling, falling, falling

There's a candle burning

Looking through the looking glass
Looking back at me
I got X-Ray rear view vision
But I don't like what I see

Now, I'd should not bitch and moan
But there's not much I can do
When you're hangin' by a thread
And I'm hangin' on to you

Baby we can fall apart
Or we can fall together
It's a long way down
We can make a new start
Never say never
We can fall apart
Or we can fall together
Fall together, fall together
Fall together, fall together

Now I know you feel compelled
When you're way down in the dumps
Every road can take some turns
And every road has got it's bumps

Now you got to know yourself
Yeah, you got to play it smart
'Cause you'll suffer for your sanity
If you suffer for your art

Baby we can fall apart
Or we can fall together
It's a long way down
We can make a new start
Never say never
We can fall apart
Or we can fall together
Fall together, fall together
Fall together, fall together

Now honey I got this feelin' somethin's funny
But I don't know what it is
My knees are shakin', how amazing
And the ground's about to give

Baby, we can fall apart
Or we can fall together
It's a long way down
We can make a good start
Never say never
We can fall apart or we can
Fall together

Baby we can fall apart
Or we can fall together
It's a long way down
We can make a new start
Never say never
We can fall apart
Or we can fall together

Fall together

You say one thing then you do another
You got it all wrong so you blame it on your mother
You're kickin' the dog cause you can't get the cat
You know it ain't cool but you like it like that

Everybody talkin' 'bout what it is, what it ain't
Kiss on the devil and you piss off a saint
But it can't be love if you don't have to crawl
You say you don't need nothin' but you've got to have it all

I wanna know
What kind of love are you on?

Jelly roll Jane, rollin' on the rug
Tokin' on a lover like a brand new drug
Do the same thing every damn day
Do the same thing, do the same thing
Never seem to get enough

I wanna know
What kind of love are you on?
I've got to know
What kind of love are you on?

When Jack took Jill up that hill
She charged his ass a quarter
Well, he flipped his lid, uh, 'cause what she did
Oh, she shouldn't, hadn't, oughta

Rockin' in a cradle with a high school vamp
Screamin' at a homey like an old tube amp
Up, down, sideways, goin' in and out of phase
Everybody asks me why I kiss the girls and make them cry

I wanna know
What kind of love are you on?
I wanna know
What kind of love are you on?
I've gotta know
What kind of love are you on?
