Went to a party  
I danced all night  
I drank sixteen beers  
And I started up a fight  
But now I am jaded  
You’re out of luck  
I’m rolling down the stairs  
Too drunk to fuck  
I’m too drunk to fuck  
You’re too drunk to fuck  
Too drunk, to fuck  
I’m too drunk, too drunk, too drunk  
To fuck

Why don’t we get drunk and screw  
I just bought a waterbed filled up for me and you  
They say you are a snuff queen, Honey, I don’t think that’s true  
So, why don’t we get drunk and screw.

Help me, I broke apart my insides  
Help me, I’ve got no soul to sell  
Help me, the only thing that works for me  
Help me get away from myself

I want to fuck you like an animal  
I want to feel you from the inside  
I want to fuck you like an animal  
My whole existence is flawed  
You get me closer to god

You don’t always have to fuck her hard  
In fact sometimes that’s not right to do  
Sometimes you got to make some love  
And fuckin’ give her some smooches too

Took me to her crib that night, leather and spikes  
Broke out the rope and the dope strobe-light  
And started buggin’, lightin’ candles all over the room  
Then she did a backflip, landed on my dick  
I knew that I would be dead soon

This girl tried to kill me, she didn’t use a gun or a knife  
This girl tried to kill me, took me within a inch of my life  
This girl tried to kill me, she didn’t use a bomb or a gun  
This girl tried to kill me, homeboys, watch out for this one

She’ll only come out at night  
The lean and hungry type  
Nothing is new, I’ve seen her here before  
Watching and waiting

She’s sitting with you but her eyes are on the door  
So many have paid to see, what you think you’re getting for free?  
The woman is wild, a she-cat tamed by the purr of a Jaguar  
Money’s the matter, if you’re in it for love you ain’t gonna get too far

Oh, here she comes  
Watch out boy she’ll chew you up  
Oh, here she comes  
She’s a man eater

I saw pale kings and princes too,  
Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;  
They cried—‘La Belle Dame sans Merci  
Thee hath in thrall!’

Now I think I’m going down to the well tonight  
and I’m going to drink till I get my fill  
And I hope when I get old I don’t sit around thinking about it  
but I probably will  
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture  
a little of the glory of, well time slips away  
and leaves you with nothing mister but  
boring stories of glory days

Well, she wrote me a letter  
Said she couldn’t live without me no more  
Listen mister, can’t you see I got to get back  
To my baby once-a more  
Anyway, yeah!

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane  
Ain’t got time to take a fast train  
Lonely days are gone, I’m a-goin’ home  
My baby, just-a wrote me a letter

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane  
When she catches up with me  
Won’t be no time to explain  
She thinks I’ve been with another woman  
And that’s enough to send her half insane

‘Cause a nigga like me is goin’ insane

I could while away the hours, conferrin’ with the flowers  
Consultin’ with the rain.  
And my head I’d be scratchin’  
While my thoughts were busy hatchin’  
If I only had a brain.

I’d unravel every riddle for any individ’l,  
In trouble or in pain.  
With the thoughts I’d be thinkin’  
I could be another Lincoln  
If I only had a brain.

So let your arms hang down  
And waddle all around  
Like a dreadful mighty killer  
A big black wild gorilla

We do the King Kong song, won’t you sing along  
Listen to the music and it couldn’t go wrong  
We do the Kong Kong song, gotta sing along  
Can’t you hear the beating of the monkey tom-tom  
Listen to the rhythm of the King Kong song
