Another mother’s breaking
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It’s the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head, they’re still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs, and their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
What’s in your head? In your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie
Half cow, half pigeon
You should see it roam the streets of Manhattan
The pow or cigeon, if you’d rather is an insult against God
Oh you know I like to do just like the rest, you know I like my sugar sweet
But guarding fumes and making haste, you know it ain’t my cup of meat
Everybody’s out the trees, feeding pigeons all under the limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here the pigeons gonna run to him
Oh come all without, come all within
You’ll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You’ll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
Sweeter than sugar (ooh-ooh)
Kisses like wine (oh, he’s so fine)
Don’t let him under your skin
‘Cause you’ll never win (no, you’ll never win)
Don’t give him love today, tomorrow he’s on his way
He’s a sweet talkin’ guy (sweet talkin’ guy)
But he’s my kind of guy (sweet talkin’ guy)
Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want I have
Whenever I hold you tight
This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time
I’m in love for the first time
Don’t you know it’s gonna last?
It’s a love that lasts forever
It’s a love that has no paths
Oh, babe, as I look into your eyes
Well, I wonder if it’s wise
To hold you like I wanted to before
Tonight, ooh, I was thinking that you might
Be the one who brings light in this heart of mine
Next time I fall in love
I’ll know better what to do
Next time I fall in love
Ooh, ooh
The next time I fall in love
The next time I fall in love it will be with you
If I fell in love with you,
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand?
'Cause I’ve been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands.
It’s exactly the same
You said
It’s always the same
But I’ll make it change
Into something the same
I promise
A promise
Lyin’, cheatin’, hurtin’ that’s all you seem to do
Messin’ around with every guy in town
Puttin’ me down for thinkin’ of someone new
Always the same playin’ your game
Drive me insane trouble is gonna come to you
One of these days and it won’t be long
You’ll look for me but baby I’ll be gone
This is all I gotta say to you, woman
I wouldn’t if I were you
I know what she can do
She’s deadly, man, and she could really rip your world apart
Mind over matter
Ooh, the beauty is there, but a beast is in the heart
Oh-oh, here she comes
Watch out, boy, she’ll chew you up
Oh-oh, here she comes
She’s a man-eater
Oh-oh, here she comes
It’s only just a crush, it’ll go away
It’s just like all the others, it’ll go away
Or maybe this is danger, and he just don’t know
You pray it all away, but it continues to grow
I want to hold you close, skin pressed against me tight
Lie still, close your eyes girl
So lovely, it feels so right
I want to hold you close, soft breath, beating heart
As I whisper in your ear, “I want to fucking tear you apart”
Ooh, baby
Move closer to me
I’ve had all that I can stand
Take hold of me with your hands
Oh, baby
You give me the chills
Whisper low in my ear
Let me know how it feels
Just to know you are near
Your body gives me a thrill
As it leans against mine
I love how it feels
With your jeans against mine
Oh baby baby, don’t you want a man like me?
Oh baby baby, I’m just as sweet as anybody could be
Oh baby baby, I want to look to your eyes of blue
Oh baby baby, it’s more than anybody else could do
You know I’ve seen a lot of what the world can do
And it’s breakin’ my heart in two
Because I never wanna see you sad girl
Don’t be a bad girl
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware, beware
Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world
It’s hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world
I’ll always remember you like a child, girl
“We’ll see”
Means no
“Not now”
Means no
“Ask your father”
Means no
“Ask your mother”
Means no
“Maybe when you’re older”
Means no
“We’ll discuss it later”
Means no
“Is your bed made?”
No!
“Is your room clean?”
No!
“What do you think?”
No, no, no!
Why is no the only thing a parent can express?
There ought to be as many ways of saying yes
I need to make a comeback, I ain’t worked in years
The good times are over, someone call Norman Lear
I made my rounds in the Hollywood Circle
But now I’m being dissed by Urkel
Unemployment, it’s overpowering
Maybe Mickey Ds is hiring
At this point I may go steal
For some of Thelma’s oatmeal
Mama’s gonna kick me out
Mama gonna scream and shout
Gonna smack all about
Mama gonna kick me out
I’ve got some skeletons in my closet
And I don’t know if no one knows it
So before they shove me inside this coffin and close it
I’m gonna expose it
I’mma take you back to '73
Before I ever had a multi-platinum-selling CD
I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months
My [bleep] father must have had his panties up in a bunch
Cuz he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
No, I don’t, on second thought I just fucking wished he would die
I was the one who let you know
I was your sorry ever after
Seventy-four, seventy-five
Givin’ me more and I’ll define
'Cause you’re really only after
Seventy-four, seventy-five
Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to?
You give me somethin’ I can hold on to
I know you think I’m like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall
Jenny, I got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny, don’t change your number
867-5309 (867-5309)
