Track Lyrics
Forgive and Forget (Pull Down the Night) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the beginning, in the days before time, the light was alive with the essence of power
And from that power were born beings who lived on the edge of eternity
And they spread their wings and soared through the ancient air
And the beating of their wings made the winds
And from the winds came the seas
And from the sea came the life of the earth
[Verse 2]
Nature's cast upon the sea the winds of past, of promise be
Waters deep uncover me
A scheme of sleep as lovers three
[Verse 3]
If you'll forgive me my ferocity, I won't forget your sweetness
Pull down the night, lay it before me
Gratify my head with curses
[Verse 4]
Night recalls tranquility
A curtain falls and sets it free
Darkness calls eternity
Down silent halls the shadows flee
[Verse 5]
If you'll forgive me my ferocity, I won't forget your sweetness
Pull down the night, lay it before me
Satisfy my head with curses
[Chorus]
Forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
[Verse 6]
Fates are cast upon the sea
The winds of past of promise be
Waters deep uncover me
A scheme of sleep as lovers three
[Outro]
Forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
No Exit Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's no sin in this: getting dressed to kill, laughing down the sun like a jackal will
With his eyes ablaze and his lips apart he's going to fill his cup with the love in your heart and drink it up till the morning starts
Circulate the red light vistas
Get the girls and get their sisters
Pinch them up and give them blisters
Kiss them fierce with all his might, forever
[Chorus]
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
[Verse 2]
Standing on the verge of the edge of the ledge, waiting for me to fall, but then I got a call
It said "Wait, hold up homie!
You must be tripping!
You can't be putting that skimping and wimping up in your pipping!
You better stand tall, fool you was born to ball
Took a little fall and now you want to end it all!
You've been chasing dreams like a hound dog on the hunt
Take your place in the front
Put your hand on the pump
And it's right in your grasp, man
I know they're laughing, but you'll be laughing later because time's are going to get greater
You's a player, and when I say player I mean player because your daddy and your uncle was a player
[Chorus]
Who's going to cry for you?
Who's going to cry over you?
Who's going to cry for you?
Who's going to cry over you?
[Verse 3]
Put yourself in your position
You aren't wishing for no food and no warmth and no light, so you must be doing all right
But wait a minute!
Something's wrong
It's lunatic, it's mad, insane!
Busted like a water main
Indulgence in another vein
What they're saying round the neighborhood is what he's drinking's not aged in wood
He's filling out
He's all growed up
He's all blowed up
He's gotten fat
He's filling out
He's all growed up
He's all blowed up
He's gotten fat
[Break]
Sure enough at the midnight lounge there's a dent in the seat where the vampire sat
[Chorus]
Bye bye to another life
Bye bye to another life
[Break]
Living dead is doing time, like drowning on the circle line
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Who's going to cry over you?
Cry over you?
Tell me would they lie for you?
Die for you?
You're hoping that it's true for you do for you, fool
But who's going to cry?
Double Take Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Looking for your face where it could never be
I'm following a trail that only I can see
Raising waves of heat
I press on in tiny bursts of speed
[Verse 2]
Caught in my pursuit, I play the fetishist admission
The longing that I feel drives me mad in no direction
Nailed by something cute, I tear it out with micro-surgical precision
[Verse 3]
Incender
Put some gas on the ember
Lightning goes to ground
[Verse 4]
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down
[Pre Chorus]
Double take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
[Chorus]
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
[Verse 5]
Another flash of face, igniting and familiar pulls me by the eye to the perimeter
Riveting my gaze
Is that your face in the crowd?
[Verse 6]
Incender
Drop some gas on the ember
I felt a slap on the face
[Verse 7]
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground, burning me down
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
I fell awake
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
[Pre Chorus]
[Verse 8]
Looking for your face where it could never be
I'm following a trail that only I can see
[Chorus]
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
[Verse 9]
I'm following a trail that only I can see
Boom Boom in the Zoom Zoom Room Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Passing the match test?
That's some kind of tease, because everything rests on the moment the little flame sees
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
If you get past that brief little flash, take down my number with your pencil moustache
Play truth or dare in the light of a strike anywhere
Don't follow the fallen already lying down there
[Chorus]
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Oh yeah, uh huh
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
[Verse 2]
I'll be the cause you can champion
Your scarlet companion
And won't it be fine?
Keeping my head above water
I'm no farmer's daughter
No clinging vine
When we trip the light fantastic, a feeling so rare, it will follow your features aligned by the glare
[Chorus]
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
[Verse 3]
I'll be the cause you can champion
Your scarlet companion
And won't it be fun?
I'll keep my head above water
I'm no farmer's daughter
No clinging vine
Passing the match test and no one says thank you because they're gone just as fast as a breeze
[Outro]
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Yeah, let's go boom
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Ah, let's go, let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Out in the Streets Lyrics
[Chorus]
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't do the wild things that he did before
[Verse 1]
(Oh)
He used to act bad
Used to, but he quit it
It makes me so sad, because I know that he did it for me (and I can see)
And I can see (still in the street) his heart, his heart is out in the street
[Chorus]
He don't comb his hair like he did before
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more
[Verse 2]
(Oh)
But he's not the same
There's something about his kisses that tells me he's changed
I know there's something missing inside
(Tell me more)
Something died
(Still in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the streets
He grew up on the sidewalk, streetlights shining above
He grew up with no one to love
He grew up on the sidewalk, he grew up running free
He grew up and then he met me
[Chorus]
He don't hang around with the gang no more
Gee, he doesn't smile like he did before
[Break
(Oh)
I wish I didn't care
I wish I'd never met him
[Verse 3]
They're waiting out there, so I got to set him free
(Send him back)
He's got to be
(out in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the street
[Outro]
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
Happy Dog (for Caggy) Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm like a happy dog who's been alone too long
I want to wag for you baby
Raise a flag of wag
Shake and shag
I want to wag for you baby
[Chorus]
Come on now throw me some bone
I'm ripping up your song
I want to be your dog
Skinny or fat, I'm going to go with that and chase your pussycat
[Verse 1]
Be my happy dog, my leaping frog and jump all over me
Because my little mutt's got that hairy butt
He's going to wag it for me baby
Hey come over here Mr. Licks
I like when you pick up sticks
When you throw me a fit
And no matter what you tell the tale of a pup because you're my kind of mutt
[Verse 2]
I disagree
I want to itch you like a flea
Going to teach my old dog to do some new tricks
Mm hm
Don't be begging me, just take a seat on my lap of luxury
Because I'm a happy dog who's been alone too long
I want to wag for you baby
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I want to wag for you baby
I want to wag for you
I want to wag for you baby
I want to wag for you
The Dream’s Lost on Me Lyrics
[Pre Chorus]
I wake up laughing, thrown from a nightmare
I come down standing when I'm tossed in the air
Bright as Tiajuana
Like a dose of Bella Donna
I could cry but I don’t want to
And the dream's lost on me
[Chorus]
I come out shooting when trouble comes knocking
I greet bad news by sending it walking
Happy or just crazy
Relaxed or lazy
Going to keep my vision hazy
And the dream's lost on me
[Verse 1]
Cares are all buckshot and buffalo
Every dark has an afterglow
I'm not afraid of what's down below
I keep my sights on the sky
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
Dig Up the Conjo Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dig up the Congo
Breaking the mojo
Dig up the conjo
Making me well
[Break]
Who do you love?
[Verse 2]
You're a mess
Got a gun to your head
And drums in the night
Going blind
Hypnotized
[Chorus]
Lost in the Congo
Holding the bongo
Kilimanjaro
Dig up the conjo
[Verse 3]
Listen to drums for the name
Little hearts beat like saints come marching in
Deep in the bayou
Demon inside you
Put on the hoo doo
Put on the hoo doo
[Break]
Who do you love?
[Bridge]
"Hey mommy, do you see that man? Hey mommy, I don't understand"
"It's only a zombie, honey, hailing a cab. Just hold my hand and don't look in his face"
[Verse 4]
Jungle inside you
Something's beside you
Doing the mambo
Dig up the conjo
[Break]
Who do you love?
A loa down the well
Come and ring the bell
The jungle's burning down!
[Chorus]
Lost in the Congo
Beating the bongo
Dig up the conjo
[Break]
Who do you love?
[Verse 5]
To confess in the sun hold your breath
Something comes
It's alright
Half alive
Watching you while it flies
[Outro]
Lost in the Congo
Beating my bongo
Breaking the mojo
Dig up the conjo
Beating my bongo
Holding the mojo
Making me well
