RULE IN HELL...by Talile Ali
SHE WAKES AT SEVEN
STARTS HER COFFEE POT
BITCHES WITH HER HUBBY
ABOUT HOW MUCH HE AIN'T GOT
LOOKING FOR SOME YOUNG BOYS
ONE'S SHE CAN CALL FRIENDS
ONE BEFORE SHE GET'S TO WORK
ONE FOR AFTER TEN
DO DO DO
DOIN AND CHEWIN SOMETHIN
ALWAYS ON HER MIND
BUNS UP FOR THE FELLAS
HEY, SHE'S JUST THAT KIND
HUBBY DOESN'T LIKE IT
SAY'S IT MAKES HIM ILL
AFRAID HE MIGHT CATCH SOMETHING
WHICH THERE AINT NO PILL
DO DO DO
SOME ONE STOLE HER CHILDHOOD
SHE WAS RAPED REAL YOUNG
NOW SHE DOES THE RAPIN
AND SHE'S HAVING THE FUN
DO DO DO DO DO DO
SO SHE CRUZES ART FAIRS
DALLY'S AND THE BARS
LOOKIN FOR THAT REPASS
ONE THAT WON'T LEAVE SCARS
AS SHE DROOLS AND SLOBBERS
OVER THE YOUNG FARE
HURT'S SHE'LL NEVER BE ONE
ONLY WANTS HER SHARE
DO DO DO
HARD BEIN A COUGAR
HARD BEIN A WIFE
HARD BEING THIS HAPPY
WHEN YOUR START'S
A MESSED UP LIFE
HERE'S TO NEW FOUND KINGDOM
UPON WHICH THERE IS A THRONE
ADORED WITH RAPE AND ROUGH SEX
AFTER WHICH SHE'S ALONE
DO DO DO
BETTER TO RULE IN HELL
THAN SERVE IN HEAVEN THEY SAY
AT LEAST YOU KNOW WHO IS IN CHARGE
SO EVERYTHING'S OK
DO DO DO

They say that Im too young to rave
And my kerf is 12
But I dont wanna stay inside
While they enjoy themselves
My friends are talking
Feel like Im missing out
On what theyre doing
Not much longer
Bounce up and down with my older friends (older friends)
The over 18s where the party never ends
Its not like the ladies have got the problems
So at least 19 they pushing their benz
Never too old can you work and live with that
Young and free and I want it like that
And I aint giving it up
Its hard growing up so fast
Trying hard to make my childhood last forever
All the fellas trying to make a pass
Im still trying to make it last forever
They say that Im too young
To have any boyfriends
But if I was to met someone
Would you stop me
Im aint too young
To understand
You know the game
Im telling you
Bounce up and down with my older friends (older friends)
The over 18s where the party never ends
Its not like the ladies have got the problems

So Young & In Love
Theres flying angels on your fire escape
They lie to your mama for you, try to keep you safe
Youre with them fire alley virgins on a midnight vamp
Lost your heart on main street to a beautiful tramp
You lost your mind
Shes sent from above
Youre so young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
Rat traps filled with soul crusaders
Theyre soppin n boppin n moppin with little melvin and the invaders
Missys on the dance floor doin her stuff
Leroys dancin doin the continental strut
Sent from above
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
Everybodys reelin when the band hits the ceilin
Dont you know you wanna go
The kids start rockin when the boys start knockin
And everybody wants to go
Lets go!
Joints shut down but you dont wanna go home
Youre in the shady side of town and youre all alone
Papas chewin your ear off, you aint got no cash
Mamas chewin your ear off bout hangin out with trash
So fine, sent from above
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love

Being Kind
Please don't worry now about the mornin'
When it's time we'll sip our wine and sleep
Woah, but i've been known
To love more than one person
Woah, and i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Listen to my words now look no further
What you've seen is what i mean no more
Woah, but i've been known
To love more than one person
Woah, and i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Don't dream of answers cause you know i've none to give
They burn like cancers they just won't let you live
I've been known
To love more than one person
And i've been shown
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes
Don't dream of answers cause you know i've none to give
We move like dancers steppin on each other to live
And pouncin hard
Like animals in the yard
And there's no healin, lookin, feelin
There's no denyin that bein kind can hurt
Someone sometimes
Oh, there's no denyin, woah lord there's no denyin
That bein' kind can hurt someone sometimes

It Hurts To Want It So Bad
Its a lot like bein little
And wantin a brand new toy.
Its a lot like bein little
And wantin a baby boy
To call brother,
And it hurts
When you want it
So bad.
Its a lot like bein a young boy
Who cannot make the team.
Its a lot like bein a young girl
Who cannot help but dream
Of her best friends brother,
And it hurts
When you want it
So bad.
When its love
Youve had and lost,
If thats the worst hurt
Youve ever had,
Waiting for a new love
To come along,
And maybe, baby,
[its] just as bad.
Its a lot like bein a man
When you[ve] no one to call your own,
And its a lot like bein a woman
When you want to make a home
And be a mother,
And it hurts when you want it
So bad.
Hey, yeah.
When its love
Youve had and lost,
Thats the worst hurt
Youve ever had,
Waiting, waiting for a new love
To come along,
It may be, baby,
May be just as bad, lord.
Its a lot like bein a man
When you[ve] no one to call your own,
And
Its a lot like bein a woman
When ya want
To make a home
And be a mother,
And it hurts
When ya want it so bad.
When ya want it,
Want it so bad.
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya want it.
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,
When ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya, when ya,

My Life - The Story of Young Boy - Pt.1
She yelled and took the bottle
And then my dad yelled back
Young boy crying in the corner
Memories of my childhood are all black
“I hate you” she screams
But he hates her more
Their hatred builds
As they even their score
Pins her to the couch
Saying nasty things
Young boy is wondering
Is this the joy life brings?
Sister gets pregnant
One blames the other
Whiskey fix, does the trick
The young boy loses his mother
The working day is done
Father watching the TV
Young boy shows dad what he has done
Father doesn't want to see
Young boy makes a mistake
Dad calls young boy a name
Young boy crying in the corner
Filled with guilt and shame
Young boy seeking somebody
For his life he wants to share
Always seeking and never finding
Cause no one really cares
Mom moves away
Young boy so sad
Family broken
Parents glad
Their lives go on
But his does stay
Young boy, old life
With no time to play
Young boy now a teenager
Turns to drugs and booze
The pain he faced, he turns away
His past he wants to lose
Young boy then gets married
To a beautiful wife
Wants so bad to forget his past
And start a brand new life
Young boy yells at new wife
New wife yells at me
My young boy in the corner
The old cycle he does see
Young boy now starts seeking
To make my life brand new
For the benefit of my young boys
My pain they won't go through
New wife says to young boy
You're never going to change
She packs her bags and then she leaves
Another family now estranged
Young boy really hurting
Hoping pain won't last
For now he has a starring role
In the memories of his past
Young boy sitting wondering
Is the pain what it is worth
Broken people, doing broken things
To make a broken earth
Young boy now is fighting
Fighting for his life
Trying to make the old, brand new again
For his young boys and his wife
Young boy finds Our savior
That sits upon His throne
The abundant life he offers
Shows Young Boy he's not alone
The cycle it continues
But young boy wants to try
To fight for what his parents didn't
Then the cycle he'll defy
So young boy makes a decision
He also makes his creed
He hopes to fix his family
All to God he'll lead
So young boy gives it one last chance
With the hope that Jesus brings
Young boy knows it's not over
Til the fat lady sings.......

sexilla....by Talile Ali
walkin into bars
with a smile on the face
counting up the young ones
she's gonna embrace
sexilla
feelin hornier than hell
gonna find someone to ring that bell
out on the town away from hubby
to get a boy to rub her nubby
sexilla
bump and grind to the juke box band
as she roams about with her hands
feeling every wiling gland
concealed inside those youthful pants
sexilla
gonna have plenty of play
if she gets to have her way
take em one by one out to the van
so that she can play with those fine young glands
sexilla
so what, if they are really young
those young dudes know how to have fun
and they really know they are under the gun
if they don't deliver, just get another one
sexilla
it's a crazy life you see
when you have to do this see
keep it concealed behind the mind
keep on doin it till your dyin
sexilla
sexilla
no magilla
sexilla

These Chains
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over agai-ain
I was a foo-ool for a good lookin' woman
Till I found out the hard way there was some other man
Now what else could I do, how could anyone blame me
He was standin' there smilin' with a gun in his ha-and
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
She had a known reputation but I paid no attention
With love and affection, can make anything right
The judge had no mercy for my infatuation
He said killin's a sin boy, you gotta pay-ay the price
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
Down the hall there's a window, you can barely fit through it
And deep in the night I see the lights of town
And it started me thinkin' 'bout a mystical ladder
That's as high as these walls and I'm climbin' it rung by-y ru-ung
These chains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
And these chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom
I'm changin' my name and startin' over again
These chai-ains won't keep me from bein' a free man
I'm doin' what I can to get out of here
These chai-ains won't keep me from seein' my freedom

To Be (Love Poem)
Sometimes it’s hard to be apart
Sometimes it’s hard to be brave
Sometimes it’s hard to be cold
Sometimes it’s hard to be daring
Sometimes it’s hard to be early
Sometimes it’s hard to be friends
Sometimes it’s hard to be good
Sometimes it’s hard to be happy
Sometimes it’s hard to be in-love
Sometimes it’s hard to be just
Sometimes it’s hard to be kind
Sometimes it’s hard to be lovely
Sometimes it’s hard to be mellow
Sometimes it’s hard to be nasty
Sometimes it’s hard to be out
Sometimes it’s hard to be poor
Sometimes it’s hard to be quiet
Sometimes it’s hard to be ready
Sometimes it’s hard to be simple
Sometimes it’s hard to be together

I Don't Wanna Work
Well i give it little care
Does anybody out there even know
I'm in here?
I just keep my movement going
Somewhere
Like playing in the background baby
Like playing in the background baby
I play the game
You play the way that most men would choose
I'm surprised at you
Way back in the middle of a broken down love affair
You and i found each other
And we fell in love
I ain't never met a man and woman get along better
Than you and i when get together
Still i say
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Not if it makes me cry
No no
See the lady walking down the street
She's got on high heel shoes
And her hair full of curlers
She's got stiletto nails
And some black mascara
She's got a push up and a pick up
I tell you that girl's working overtime
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Not if it makes me cry
No no no no no no
I don't wanna work
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work it if makes me cry
Spent last night
Talking to myself in bed
Wondering why i do this over
Over and over again
I don't know
I, i, i, i don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work that hard
Not when it makes me cry
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work not that hard
I don't wanna work it it makes me cry
I don't wanna work that hard
I don't wanna work not that hard
I don't wanna work if it makes me cry

Dear homie, whats the hap, since your up in the sky?
With God by your side
Homie whats it like?
I know your bein treated right
No more worries
Plus youre bein heard g
I guess you know niggaz is still trippin
I dont know why, they see a future in it
Were headed for self-destruction
Cant function
Only thing I can do is pray
And thank god, for another day
Yes homie, its rough down here. I gotta watch my back
Cos its hard being black
If it aint the other
Its my own colour
Tryin to work me
Tryin to hurt me
Aint no l-o-v-e
Please tell me why, dear homie
[ice-t]
Dear homie, gang-bangin aint joke
And Im lookin over ya loc
Always knew there was fools out to get me
I didnt even hear the gunshots till after the slugs hit me
I grabbed for my chest and my neck, hopin
When my head hit the ground my skull busted open
You used to ask for my advice
Well dear homie, dyin aint nothin nice
And the place Im at is overpacked
With young blacks who crash crack and gats
I can only pray
You dont come this way
You gotta stay alive, you got a kid g
I feel ya partner but I worry alot
Bust shots
I know youre tryin to comfort me
But I dont want no company, homie
[hen-gee]
Dear homie, even though youre gone
I still fell your presence
Sometimes I can sleep
Cos I just cant see
Reality like it really should be seen
I still reminisce on how we used to kick it
Strollin the yard, just hangin out together
Down for whatever, whenever
And now Im hopin, youre seeing a true friend in me
We where meant to be
[ice-t]
Dear homie, you used to call me o.g.
Now ya really gotta look up to me
Cos the place Im at, is way high in the sky
I didnt want to die
But the life I lived was just to reckless
Too many bad marks on gods checklist
And many many brothers will go out
Just tryin to get that hard-core street clout
But a street reps final test, is when youre lying in a coffin
With youre hands folded on your chest.
Then ya hear the girls cry
Then ya hear the brothers lie
Talkin about how down you was
Then the next week the back on the street, they cold forgot ya cuz.
Dont wanna see ya on your back,
So for me stay sucka free, cos you dont need that, homie.
Dear homie...
Dear homie...
Ya know I miss ya homie...

Chestnut Street
Written by John Mellencamp
Well I've lived and breathed and been disbelieved
in these small town streets too long
I've been up with the winners and down with the sinners
And hung on this corner 'til dawn
And my hands they have been tied
To a life I've been denied
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And workin' from nine to five
By the end of the day, all the kids would go play
And I'd come staggering home
With a dream in my hand and a master plan
That wouln't leave my mind alone
I compromised all my schemes
And flucturated all my dreams
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And nothing is like it really seems
(bridge)
But you must believe that when I walk down the tracks
The young girls fall back and say
There goes that sleek young silhouette
He don't drive no Corvette
But he stings just like a Sting Ray
And that's my only redemption in this house of detention
That keeps me from simply blowin' it all away
'Cause when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat
I say, God don't take this away
I keep hopin' and wishin' that these romantic positions
Gonna help me hide my pain
And all the hurt that I've felt underneath my leather studded belt
Of not finding fortune and fame
But some day I'll blow 'em away with the things that I may sing and
might say
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And waitin' for my pay dirt day
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And waitin' for my pay day

Lonely Together
Music & Lyrics by Kenny Nolan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your eyes are sad eyes
Mine are too
It doesn't take too much to see
What we've been through
You lost your baby
And me the same
Ain't it true how love's a hurtin' game
Could I have this dance
May I be so bold
It's just my arms are empty
And the night is so cold
Wouldn't it be fine bein' lonely together
Wouldn't it be fine havin' a shoulder to share
You could tell me how he broke your heart
And I'll tell you how she broke mine
And maybe later on I could take you home
Now wouldn't it be sad bein' lonely all alone
A heart that's hurtin's
Not hard to see
I guess he promised you the world
Like she did me
But dry your eyes now
You'll be just fine
We can drown our achin' hearts in this glass of wine
Well I hate to say
What's done is done
It's just two can ease the pain
Much better than one
Wouldn't it be fine bein' lonely together
Wouldn't it be fine havin' a shoulder to share
You could tell me how he broke your heart
And I'll tell you how she broke mine
And maybe later on I could take you home
Now wouldn't it be sad bein' lonely all alone
Love
It's such a crazy thing
All you got to give and no regrets
But love
It can live again
Stay with me tonight
I'll make it work out right
Wouldn't it be fine bein' lonely together
Wouldn't it be fine havin' a shoulder to share
You could tell me how he broke your heart
And I'll tell you how she broke mine
And maybe later on I could take you home
Now wouldn't it be sad bein' lonely all alone

When I Was Young

Producer: carter
Album: the collected recordings (94), private dancer emi centenary edition (96)
B-side of the better be good to me single
The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
The times were very hard
When I was young
When I was young
I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for boys I had a bad yen
I had quite a ball
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young
I met my first love at thirteen
He was brown, and I was pretty green
I learned quite a lot
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful, the laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
I was so much older then
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young

Aint That The Way It Always Ends
Johnny came home broken-hearted
Said he lost his girl
He burrowed up all the hurt in his heart
But still a hole in the wall of his world
Now betty, she was a blonde-haired beauty
With an eye for a man who could spend
She stole his heart in a pick-up truck
Then drove off in a mercedes van
And he said...
Chorus:
oh, she looked so innocent
Talkin bout bein just friends
Oh, and it dont make a bit of since
Aint that the way tit always ends?
Sharon, she had a long time dream
And only one man in her life
He kept her waitin
But she didnt care
Cuz he promised her hed make her his wife
Now billy, he had a good thing goin
But he let it go to his head
Well he got jealous late one night,
She caught them both in her bed
And she said...
(repeat chorus replacing she with he)
Oh it always looks so innocent
Talkin bout bein just friends
Oh and it dont make a bit og since
Aint that the way it always ends?
Aint that the way it always ends?
Aint that the way it al---ways ends?

Hard Road
(h. vanda / g. young)
My mama n papa told me son that youre just a fool
When I told em I was leaving home I was leaving school
So then in a couple of hours I found myself
Heading down that southbound road
With everything I owned on my back
I carried such a heavy load
And its a hard, hard road that I travel
Its a hard, hard road that I travel
Its a hard, hard road that I travel down the line
And its a hard, hard road down the line
Well I wanna tell ya friends
That its good to be a traveling man
cause Im doing what I want to
Living just the best that I can
Nobody putting rings around my neck
To put me in a pigeon hole
Ive got my dog and my radio
To listen to some rock n roll
And its a hard, hard road that I travel
Its a hard, hard road that I travel
Its a hard, hard road that I travel down the line
And its a hard, hard road down the line

When I Was Young I Cried
When I was young I cried when I was sad, when I was young I cried when I was happy, when I was young I cried when I wanted something, when I was young I cried when I was lonely, when I was young I cried when I had to say goodbye, when I was young I cried when my feelings were hurt, when I was young I cried when I wasn't accepted, when I was young I cried when I was mocked, when I was young I cried for attention, when I was young I cried when I was scared, when I was young I cried when I hurt others, when I was young I cried when I felt physical pain, when I was young I cried when I was jealous, when I was young I cried when I lost someone or when I was lost somewhere, when I was young I cried when I didn't know, and now as an adult I cry because I understand.

Hard Feelings
Written by billy burnette and jeff silbar.
Now Im supposed to understand
Dont you think youre asking too much
What kind of fool do you think I am
Dont you think youve hurt me enough
Still you want to be friends
But I dont want to be just friends
So before you start with your sympathy
Just turn around and go
And if he breaks your heart, dont come crying to me
I wont be there anymore
Go ahead and cry your tears
cause Im not gonna dry your tears
Ive got hard feelings
When it comes to you and me
And these hard feelings
Just wont let me be
These hard feelings run deep
These hard feelings run deep
Ill be alright, dont you worry about me
Ill take care of myself
The first thing I need is you out of my life
The last thing I need is your help
Sorry I met you
Sorry I met you
I will forget you, someday
Ive got hard feelings
When it comes to you and me
And these hard feelings
Just wont let me be
These hard feelings run deep
These hard feelings run deep
Ive got hard feelings
When it comes to you and me
And these hard feelings
Just wont let me be
These hard feelings run deep
These hard feelings
Hard feelings
When it comes to you and me
And these hard feelings
Just wont let me be
These hard feelings run deep
These hard feelings run deep
Hard feelings
Just wont let me be
Hard feelings
Hard feelings

Chestnut Street Revisited
Written by John Mellencamp
Well I've lived and breathed and been disbelieved
In these small town streets too long
I've held nothin' but aces and been many places
And hung on the corner 'til dawn
But my hands have been tied
To a life I've been denied
I'm just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And workin' a nine to five
Well I worked like a fool 'til after done with high school
Just to form a rock and rollin' band
But the streets were exploding and my life I was decoding
Had a dream I couldn't understand
And I work it out everyday
For no fun and very little pay
I'm just a smal town boy bein' used like a toy
And doin' what other people say
Well I've drooled and fooled and been ridiculed
For havin' dreams just above my reach
And I've lied and died and tried suicide
For all the things you people wanna preach
But I always had to turn the other way
When I heard those homefolks say
(They say) You're just a small town boy bein' used like a toy
And livin' on a day to day
But you must believe that when I walk down the tracks
All those young girls fall back and say
There goes that sleek young silhouette
He don't drive no Corvette
but he stings just like a Sting Ray
And that's my only redemption in this house of detention
That keeps me from simply blowin' it all away
'Cause when I walk down the street in the hot summer heat
I say, God don't take this away
Well by the end of the day, all the kids would go play
And I'd come staggering back home
With a dream in my hand and a master plan
That wouldn't leave my mind alone
Well I compromised all my schemes
And I fluct
