Skeletons
Skeletons in your closet
Itchin to come outside
Messin with your conscience
In a way your face cant hide
Oh things are gettin real funky
Down at the old corral
And its not the skunks that are stinkin
Its the stinkin lies you tell
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasnt polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white one turns into a black one
So, its gettin ready to blow
Its gettin ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
Were gettin ready to know
Its gettin ready to drop
Its gettin ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
Ana its gettin ready to pop
Crevices in your pantry
Now what do we have in here
Havin a daytime nightmare
Has always been your biggest fear
Oh things are gettin real crucial
Up the old wazoo
Yet you cry, why am I the victim?
When the culprits y-o-u
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasnt polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white one turns into a black one
So, its gettin ready to blow
Its gettin ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
Were gettin ready to know
Its gettin ready to drop
Its gettin ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
Ana its gettin ready to pop
Its gettin ready to seep
Youre gettin ready to freak
Somebody done picked up the talk box
Were gettin ready to speak
Its gettin ready to jive
Youre gettin ready to gel
Somebody done gone let the lid off
Were gettin ready to smell
Theyre gettin ready to deal
Youre gettin ready to ill
Somebody done just dropped the big dime
And theyre gettin ready to squeal
Its gettin ready to turn
Were gettin ready to learn
Somebody done fired up the brimstone
And youre gettin ready to burn
Its gettin ready to shake
Youre gettin ready to ache
Somebody done snitched to the news crew
And its gettin ready to break
Youre gettin ready to lie
Theyre gettin ready to spy
Somebodys been put on the hot seat
And youre gettin ready to fry

Ready For The End Of The World
I know the end is near:
I've seen the warning signs.
Been preparin' myself,
Layin' in supplies.
I bought a case of Jack,
A boxed-set of Merle:
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.
I'm gettin' ready for the end to come:
That final hour it all comes undone.
An' she drops the bomb:
An' says he ain't my girl.
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.
Instrumental break.
My neon shelter waits,
Where I can go to hide.
While the memories burn,
I'll be safe inside.
With the honky-tonk few,
Bracin' for the worst:
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.
I'm gettin' ready for the end to come:
That final hour it all comes undone.
An' she drops the bomb:
An' says he ain't my girl.
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.
Yeah, I'll be ready:
Ready for the end of the world.

Fun
(ian hunter/mark clarke/hilly michaels)
I got a shower curtain stickin to my back
And the od cologne sure packs a whack
I got blood on my razor - my face is in shock
n my hair hangin down like a rastamans locks
I think Im ready - Im gettin ready
Gettin ready teddy - were all gonna have fun
I gotta rock n roll - rocket says you gotta go fast
n the radios blarin out a blast from the past
Lucilles in the back screamin gimme a break
Your momma didnt tell you - thats the chance you take
Its oh so sad
When this love is all that we have
To swallow a lifetime away
With so many hours in each day
But calm your foolish heart
Our girlfriends cant keep us apart
Im with you every step of the way
Baby - what more can I say
The only problem is
I wanna party - get down - boogie - have a great time
Well its 36.50 for a room with a view
O the empire state n the pizza place, too
Lucilles got my body in a total eclipse
Shes all lips n hips - you know - one o those trips
Were gettin ready - shes gettin ready
Gettin ready teddy - were all gonna have fun

Im Gettin Over You
(steve davis, dennis morgan)
I changed my number
Bought some new clothes
Got some different records
And a new ?
Im gettin over you
Im gettin over you
Im going out dancing
Learning new jokes
Im staying out later
Than I should I suppose
But Im gettin over you
Im gettin over you
I took our name off the mailbox
Redecorated our room
Im not saying the hurtins all gone
But itll be gone soon
Chorus:
Im gettin over you
So what if youre not here
Im gettin over you
And itll happen one of these years
I ordered make-up
From vogue magazine
Im taking aerobics two nights a week
And Im getting over you
Oh Im getting over you
Im gettin over you
Im gettin over you
My friends come over
And they wonder why
Your pictures back on the wall
Instead of proving losing you
Dont bother me at all
Repeat chorus
Im gettin over you
Oh Im gettin over you

The Power
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I've got the power, uh
I've got the power
I've got the power, wa-wa-what-what, uh
I've got the power, woah-oh-oh
Like the crack of the whip I attack
Front to back in this thing called rap
Dig it like a shovel rhyme devil
On a heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind day and night all the time
Seven to fourteen wise divine
Maniac brainiac winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, what you got?
I've got the power, yeah
I've got the power, say it loud
I've got the power, uh, say what
I've got the power, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Quality, I possess some say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone that I am holdin'
Copywritten lyrics so they can't be stolen
If they are, H-Blockx
Don't need the police to try to save them
Your voice will sink so please, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, what you got, what you got, what you got?
I've got the power, come on
I've got the power, wa-wa-what, what you got?
I've got the power, get up
I've got the power, and you know that's right, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Dressed To Kill
Here we are in the west
And our cars are glistenin
The bear he roars in the east
But we aint listenin
We wont play games in his backyard
But we let him build his wall
We say our God is on our side
Hope hes listenin to us all
While we talk
Hes gettin dressed, hes lookin for his thrills
Hes gettin dressed to kill
We got eyes in the stars
But we dont care what they see
We put a man on the moon
We all see it on t.v.
We all protest about his bombs
He hopes we keep it going
And while we rest hes marchin on
His fuse has started glowin
While we talk
Hes gettin dressed, hes lookin for his thrills
Hes gettin dressed to kill
What have you got to hide at home
His arms are stained but never empty
The things that you think you own
Are only for the few
Dont you think its time, dont you think its time
We got ready, we got ready
We got right on our side
So our leaders say today
Count the size of the threat
We can slide a different way
Our planes are flyin in your sky
We know just what theyre sayin
You see the writing on the wall
Your nerves are tearin,frayin
While we talk
Hes gettin dressed
Hes lookin for his thrills
Hes gettin dressed to kill
Hes gettin dressed
Hes lookin for his thrills
Hes gettin dressed to kill.

Betty Lou's Gettin' Out Tonight
Have you heard the news
It's all over town
If you ain't heard it boys
You better sit down
I got the story here
It's hot off the press
Brace yourself now
And take a deep breath
Grob a hold of something
Hold on tight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight
First heard the rumor down on 12th and Main
The poor druggist he was going insane
His stuff is selling out like never before
He finally had to up and close the store
All the boys were getting ready to fight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight
She was bad
Her momma got mad
But now her momma said it's all right

Few have time to wait
Well my patience, lord, is wearin thin

Barely turn my head

Oh it was worth the wait
But I wont wait no more

Hello
(toby keith/jim femino)
I was hangin out in mexico, I had a beachfront bungalow
I know I should have gone home, but I was doin that caribbean thing
I was listenin to a spanish guitar, drinkin margaritas under the stars
With a pretty senorita when the telephone started to ring, guess who
Hello, honey, I was just about to
Hello, baby, I was gettin ready
Hello, I know I should have called sooner, oh, no, no
Hello, if you give me just a minute
Hello, dont you hang up till Im finished
Hello, youre the only one Ive ever, you know
Hello
Well, there was silence at the end of the line
I thought Id give her till a quarter of nine
I forgot to call her back and the party was a-rollin at ten
See, I was workin on tequila and lime
I guess I never even noticed the time
I was dancin the iguana when the phone started ringin again
And you know who
Hello, honey, I was just about to
Hello, baby, I was gettin ready
Hello, I know I should have called sooner, oh, no, no
Hello, if you give me just a minute
Hello, dont you hang up till Im finished
Hello, youre the only one Ive ever, you know

Tired Of Gettin Nowhere
Chorus:
Im tired of gettin nowhere, wish I was inspired, but its just not there
I hope this doesnt last, cause Im tired of gettin nowhere fast
Woke up this morning and went back to sleep
The sun was pourin and the rain was gettin deep
I dont know what Im supposed to do
cause everywhere I turn, I wind up headin back to you
I dont know how long I will lay here in this bed
Staring at the ceiling, going crazy in my head
Got to find some meaning, some kind of reason to go on
The only one I had was you and now youre gone, and
Chorus
My friends all tell me I should mellow out
Surely Ive got better things to think about
Must be something I can find to help me lose these blues
But the only thing thats on my mind, is standing in your shoes
Chorus
Youd think by now Id be exactly where I want to be
Got what I need, know what I need to know
Im all dressed up but without you theres nowhere to go
(solo)
Ooh, youd think by now Id be exactly where I want to be
Got what I need, know what I need to know
Im all dressed up but without you theres nowhere to go
And Im so tired of gettin nowhere
Wish I was inspired, but its just not there
I hope this doesnt last, cause Im tired of gettin
Tired of gettin, tired of gettin nowhere
Im tired of gettin nowhere, so real tired of gettin nowhere
Tired of gettin nowhere, tired, tired of gettin
Im tired of gettin nowhere, ooh yeah, wont you say it, ooh yeah
Tired of gettin nowhere fast - get some rest!

Wont you set me up and show me how, its gettin late
All these people around me wear me out, cant concentrate

For today everybodsys gettin down
Caught in a crossfire, nobody cares
Under the table, callin your name
Wont you tie me up and seal my mouth with gaffer tape
Cause these people around, people all the time,

But youre? ? ... leave us in the town
Dont walk away, everybodys gettin down, everybodys gettin down
Caught in a crossfire and nobody cares

Are You Ready?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Are you ready to meet jesus?
Are you where you ought to be?
Will he know you when he sees you
Or will he say, depart from me?
Are you ready, hope youre ready.
Am I ready, am I ready?
Am I ready, am I ready?
Am I ready to lay down my life for the brethren
And to take up my cross?
Have I surrendered to the will of god
Or am I still acting like the boss?
Am I ready, hope Im ready.
When destruction cometh swiftly
And theres no time to say a fare-thee-well,
Have you decided whether you want to be
In heaven or in hell?
Are you ready, are you ready?
Have you got some unfinished business?
Is there something holding you back?
Are you thinking for yourself
Or are you following the pack?
Are you ready, hope youre ready.
Are you ready?
Are you ready for the judgment?
Are you ready for that terrible swift sword?
Are you ready for armageddon?
Are you ready for the day of the lord?
Are you ready, I hope youre ready.

Gettin Ready
* you said that was that but this is it
How were you to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life
Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife
** I must be blind Im gettin ready to be defined
No [loose connections] cause it feels alright
Im gettin ready to hit the [line]
Can you fee me inside and out, Im just waiting for you
[cuz] its alright now I know just what I want to do
** repeat
When a day breaks, turns you around
And your world upside down
And the visions fade
Rights and wrongs and just where youve gone

Making out is such an awful drag
And I could lose my mind and every time that I turned around
I never knew if I could really find you

Edge Of Eternity
Wolf tickets are all you say Im selling
Well that goes to show what you need to know
Cause I aint yackin nothin I aint packin
My love can get with your love toe to toe
So when youre ready
Really, truly ready
Holding strong and steady
Ill be good to go
Cause if you start it
I am gonna finish it
I am gonna knock it
Like it aint been knocked before
Getting with this
Know youre gonna be
Stepping off the edge of eternity
Just one kiss
Know its you and me
Stepping off to the edge of eternity
Dead air time is all you say youre hearing
Well that shows how much you dont comprehend
Cause its not in the loud but in the quiet
Where lies the thing that will make your head spin
So when youre willin
Really, truly willin
Not just simply illin
You just let me know
Cause when you get it
I aint gonna quit it
Girl, Im gonna hit it
Like it aint been hit before
Gettin with this
Know youre gonna be
Stepping off to the edge of eternity
Just one kiss
Know its you and me
Stepping off to the edge of eternity
Pie in the sky is all you say I can deliver
Well wait til you feel what Ive got in store
One hundred and eighty pounds of good and plenty
And when youve got the need Ive got some more
So when you mean it
Really, truly mean it
Not just scheming to get to it
We can get it on
Cause if you woo it
Im going to get to it
Girl, were gonna do it
Until every ounce is gone
Gettin with this
Know youre gonna be
Stepping off to the edge of eternity
Just one kiss
Know its you and me
Stepping off to the edge of eternity
Are you ready to step off the edge into eternity
Really, really ready to step off the edge into eternity
Cause if youre ready to step off the edge into eternity
We can step right off the edge into eternity
