Vision Thing Lyrics
9 ContributorsVision Thing LyricsThe phrase âVision Thingâ was initially used by George Bush in his campaign for the 1988 election, appearing in Time in 1987. When it was suggested to Bush that his plans were all to do with short term issues⊠Read More *sniff*
Twenty-five whores in the room next door
Twenty-five floors and I need more
I'm looking for the can in the candy store
Two thousand Hamburg four
And colours I ain't seen before
It's a small world and it smells funny
I'd buy another if it wasn't for the money
Take back what I paid
For another motherfucker in a motorcade
In a long black car
With the prettiest shit
From Panama
When the sirens wail
And the lights flash blue
My vision thing come
Slamming through
It's a small world and it smells bad
I'd buy another if I had
Back
What I paid
For another motherfucker in a motorcade
Slamming through
Slamming through
What do we need to make our world come alive?
What does it take to make us sing?
While we're waiting for the next one to arrive?
One million points of light
One billion dollar vision thing
Another black hole in the killing zone
A little more mad in the methedrome
One blinding flash of sense
Just like the president's
Well, I don't mind
Out of my mind
Blizzard king
Bring it on home
It's a small world and it smells bad
I'd buy another if I had
Back
What I paid
For another motherfucker in a motorcade
And a vision thing
And a vision thing
And a ...
Sha la la la
What do we need to make our world come alive?
What do we need to make us sing?
While we're waiting for the next one to arrive?
One million points of light
One billion dollar vision thing
Sha la la la
Something Fast Lyrics
7 ContributorsSomething Fast LyricsAll the things
We never needed
I don't need them now
All the things we ever did
Were always confidential
And hidden from me anyhow
You can stand all night
At a red light anywhere in town
Hailing maries left and right
But none of them slow down
I seen the best of men go past
I don't want to be the last
Gimme something fast
God knows everybody needs
A hand in their decision
Some of us are not so sure
I seen his own held out
For a ride on television
I think he's still in Baltimore
You can stand all night
At a red light anywhere in town
Hailing maries left and right
But none of them slow down
I seen the best of men go past
I don't want to be the last
Gimme something fast
(Instrumental)
You can stand all night
At a red light anywhere in town
Hailing maries left and right
But none of them slow down
I seen the best of men go past
I don't want to be the last
Gimme something fast

Doctor Jeep Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody shouts on I Love Lucy
Pee-wee reads the evening news
A preowned song or a secondhand Uzi
Everybody got a job to lose
Here come the golden oldies
Here come the Hezbollah
Businessmen from South Miami
Humming AOR
[Chorus]
Meanwhile...
[Verse 2]
I like Cal and his dog Napalm
I like Ike and his itty-bitty A-bomb
Everybody got one, I want mine
You can order it up on Channel Nine
[Chorus]
Meanwhile, in the Sheraton
âDoctor Jeepâ plays on and on and on
[Verse 3]
There was a time, but it's long gone
Janie got a crush on the Vietcong
Burning through downtown Saigon
Me, I'm soldâdown the Mekong
[Chorus]
Meanwhile, in the Sheraton
âDoctor Jeepâ plays on and on and on
[Verse 4]
Guns and cars and accidents
The threatened witness, my defence
You can sell one another for fifteen cents
Well, bye-bye, Mother, it's common sense
[Chorus]
Yeah, meanwhile, in the Sheraton
âDoctor Jeepâ plays on and on and on
[Verse 5]
Everybody shouts on I Love Lucy
Pee-wee reads the evening news
A preowned song or a secondhand Uzi
Everybody got a job to lose
Here come the golden oldies
Here come the Hezbollah
Businessmen from South Miami
Humming AOR
[Chorus]
Meanwhile, meanwhile
"Doctor Jeepâ plays on and on and on
More Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more
I want more
[Chorus]
And I need all the love that I can't get to
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
[Verse 1]
D'you get scared to feel so much?
To let somebody touch you?
So hot, so cold, so far, so out of control
Hard to come by, and harder to hold
[Pre-Chorus]
Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
I want more
[Chorus]
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
[Verse 2]
There are parts of me that don't get nervous
Not the parts that shake
You won't get what you deserve
You are what you take
Learning to cry for fun and profit
I'm not done yet
Counterfeit dollars or the English zloty
Anything I can get
[Pre-Chorus]
Some people get by
With a little understanding
Some people get by
With a whole lot more
I don't know
Why you gotta be so undemanding
One thing I know
I want more
[Chorus]
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
[Outro]
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
And I need all the love I can get
(All the love that you can get)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(All the love that I can't get to)
And I need all the love I can get
(All the love that you can get)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(All the love that I, that I can't get to)
And I need all the love I can get
(All, all, all the love)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(That I canât get to)
And I need all the love I can get
(That I need, need, need, need, need, need, need but canât get to)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(That I canât get to!)
And I need all the love I can get
(All the love that you can get)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(That I can't get to)
And I need all the love I can get
(All the love that you can get)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(And I canât, that I need!)
And I need all the love I can get
(All the love that you can get)
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(That I canât get to!)
And I need all the love I can get
And I need all the love that I can't get to
(Canât get to)
That I need
All the love
That you canât get!
