Sailin’ On Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You don't want me anymore

So I'll just walk right out that door

Played the game right from the start

I trust you, you use me, now my heart's all torn apart

[Chorus]

So I'm sailing, yeah, I'm sailing on

I'm moving, yeah, I'm moving on

Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on

Yeah!

[Verse 2]

Tried to see if I'll give up (woo-oo-oo)

But there wasn't any luck (woo-oo-oo)

It's a fact, a fact of life (woo-oo-oo)

That's the game, game of strife, everything is all in stride

[Chorus]

So I'm sailing, well, I'm sailing on

I'm moving, well, I'm moving on

Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on

Yeah!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

So I'm sailing, yeah, I'm sailing on

I'm moving, yeah, I'm moving on

Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on

Yeah!

Woo-oo-oo

[Verse 3]

Too many years with too many tears

And too many days with none to say

So how will we know when there's nowhere to grow

The fact of life, life too short, oh

Don’t Need It Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Don't need no ivory liquid

Don't want no afro sheen

Don't need the latest fashions

Don't want my hair to smell clean

[Chorus]

I've got my automotion

I've got that superpotion

And if you think I'm going crazy

Then pretty baby it might be true babe

[Verse 2]

We don't need no first class

Don't need no second class

All of the best-of, all that can kiss my ass

[Chorus]

I've got my claim to fame

I've got that positive flame

And if you think I'm going crazy

Then pretty baby it might be you babe

Attitude Lyrics

[Bad Brains singer] H.R. started thumbing through a copy of Napoleon Hill’s self-help book… Read More Don't care what they may say

We got that attitude!

Don't care what you may do

We got that attitude!

Hey, we got that P.M.A.!

Hey, we got the P.M.A.!

Don't care what you may do

We got that attitude!

I don't care what you may say

We got that attitude!

Hey, we got that P.M.A.!

Hey, we got the P.M.A.!

We got that attitude!

Hey, we got that attitude!

Don't care what you may say

We got that attitude!

Don't care what you may do

We got that attitude!

The Regulator Lyrics

[Verse]

You tell me what to say and when to say it

You tell me what to do and how to do it

And if I ask you why, you'll arrest me

And if I call you liar, you'll detest me

[Chorus]

You control what I'll be, you control who I see

And if I let you, you'll control me

[Outro]

You're the man who owns all the keys to the stores

You're the man who always wants so much more

You're the regulator, you're the regulator

Banned in D.C. Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Banned in D.C. with a thousand more places to go

Gonna swim across the Atlantic

'Cause that's the only place I can go

[Chorus]

You! You can't hurt me

Why? I'm banned in D.C

D.C

[Verse 2]

We, we got ourselves

Gonna sing it, gonna love it, gonna work it out to any length

Don't worry, no worry, about what the people say

We got ourselves, we gonna make it anyway

[Chorus]

You! You can't hurt me

Why? I'm banned in D.C

D.C., D.C

[Bridge]

And if you ban us from your clubs

It's the right time, the right mind

And if you think we really care, you won't find in my mind

No! You can't afford, to close your doors, so soon no more

My, oh, my, I let you down upon the ground, so soon no more

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

No! You can't afford to close your doors, so soon no more

My, oh, my, I'll let you down upon the ground

Leaving Babylon Lyrics

[Intro]

Well I say, oh

I'm leaving this Babylon

[Chorus]

Say I'm leaving this Babylon, I'm leaving this Babylon

It will not be too long now, it will not be too long

I said my people are starvin' but your money's runnin'

[Verse]

I say your dollar, dollar drop down real low

And you ain't got no gold to show

We gonna step right through that door

We not gonna come back no more

I said the politician lyin', my momma just a-cryin'

And nothing ever gonna change

My poppa just a-sighin', my sister just a-lyin'

And I ain’t nothing to say, oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Well, I say, well, I say

[?]

Fearless Vampire Killers Lyrics

[Verse]

The bourgeoisie had better watch out for me

All throughout this so called nation

We don't want your filthy money

We don't need your innocent bloodshed

We just wanna end your world

[Outro]

Well my mind's made up

Yes, it's time for you to pay

Better watch out for me

I'm a member of the F.V.K

I Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Not as much but with such intensity

I'd like to be what they would not want me to be

I like to cram their chivalry inside their guts

I'd like to leave it all behind with the rest of the nuts

I, oh

[Verse 2]

Not as much but with more feeling now

I'd like to forget about you and try to break it somehow

I'd like to push it aside until I can see some more

I'd like to leave you where I found you lying on the floor

I, oh

[Chorus]

I guess it's too bad, I guess its too bad

I guess it's too bad, too bad for you!

I guess it's too bad, I guess its too bad

I guess it's too bad, too bad for you!

[Chorus]

I guess it's too bad, I guess its too bad

I guess it's too bad, too bad for you!

I guess it's too bad, I guess its too bad

I guess it's too bad, too bad for you!

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

It seems the truth always prevails on your face

And in the end I see what's in its place

So in the future you just may see

That's what you'll receive is what you gave to me

I, oh, oh

Big Take Over Lyrics

[Intro]

-.. . ... - .-. --- -.-- / -... .- -... -.-- .-.. --- -. / ..- -. .. - . / .. ... .-. .- . .-..

[Verse 1]

No one dared to show for the shower

When nobody turned to be clean

Was not even touched by the water

Just another Nazi scheme

[Chorus]

Yeah, the big takeover, yeah

My big takeover, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

All throughout this so-called nation

Prepare yourself for the final quest

The world is doomed with the desegregation

Just another Nazi test

[Chorus]

Yeah, the big takeover, yeah

My big takeover, yeah, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

So understand me when I say

There's no hope for the USA

The world is doomed with the desegregation

Just another Nazi test

[Chorus]

Yeah, the big takeover, yeah

My big takeover, yeah, yeah

Pay to Cum Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I make decisions with precision

Lost inside this manned collision

Just to see that what to be is

Perfectly my fantasy

I came to know with now dismay

That in this world we all must pay

Pay to write, pay to play

Pay to cum, pay to fight

[Post-Verse 1]

And all in time, with just our minds

We soon will find what's left behind

[Verse 2]

Not long ago, when things were slow

We all got by with what we know

The end is near, hearts filled with fear

Don't want to listen to what they hear

And so it's now we choose to fight

To stick up for our bloody right

The right to ring, the right to dance

The right is ours, we'll take the chance

[Post-Verse 2]

At peace together, apiece apart

A piece of wisdom from our hearts

Right Brigade Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You can't disappear anymore

I see your face lurking outside the window

You say you're a trife, I'm a bore

You touch yourself put your face in the pillow

[Chorus]

But the funny thing about you is

You remembered to leave it behind

The funny thing about me is

I'm a member of the right brigade

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

Makes no difference to me

What side you choose, what side will lose

All there is to perceive is what I want

And I know how how to get it

[Chorus]

But the funny thing about you is

You remember to leave it behind

And the funny thing about me is

I'm a member of the right brigade

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Right brigade!

Right Brigade!

I Luv I Jah Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Walking down Babylon Lane

Me trying to live my life in peace

Two young men call me not their brother

They try to make I feel ashamed

[Hook]

But I love, I Jah, yeah

He tell me not to be that way

I love, I Jah, yeah

I gotta keep my PMA

I love, I love, I Jah

[Verse 2]

My lovely sister judge me by my clothes, yeah

Only to learn to her mistake, not everyone's alike

We're not all a uptight, ah, no fuss, no fight

Cool that way, let me tell you 'bout the cool that way

[Hook]

Intro Lyrics

[Tradução de ''Bad Blood (Intro)'', de YUJU]

[Verso]

Estou com sede neste silêncio

A palavra violenta que virou faca

Essa é a gravação que deixo pra você, oh

Este sentimento é agridoce

Estou ansioso para isso

Ele gira dentro de mim

O sangue é como um novo poder

[Pré-Refrão]

Nesta escuridão

Vou acender a luz vermelha novamente

Então, se você estiver pronto

Deixe as câmeras rolarem

[Refrão]

Eu tenho sangue ruim, querido

Vai fluir por todo o meu corpo e penetrar profundamente

Eu tenho sangue ruim, querido

Palavras afiadas irão esfaquear cada vez mais fundo

[Pós-Refrão]

Eu tenho sangue ruim
