Bad Place Alone

I'm a creature of the street
And I rip off all the money
I was kicked in the teeth
Shoved face first through a window
I got a gangland name
And a teardrop tattooed eye
They call me Little Caesar in the brotherhood
of crime
I know about the pain
Dyin' in an alley with an
air-conditioned brain
I know, it's for real
Flatlined in an ambulance
Without a pulse to feel
CHORUS
Hey blood brother, you're one of our own
You're as sharp as a razor
And as hard as a stone
Hey blood brother, you're bad to the bone
You're a natural killer
In a bad place alone
They call me Smoky Joe
And I'm as thin as a coroner's needle
I got a pocket full of rocks
Man, I shake like a cold chihuahua
I got a runny nose
And a road map on my arm
I blew my gig pokin' 'round the gallery
With someone else's rig
I know, I understand
I watch my body hauled off
By the local garbage man
CHORUS
We're cool, we're cold
We're stiff, we're tagged
We're slabbed, we're croaked
We're whacked, we're cracked
We're smoked and cured and
slammed and slurred and
sliced and diced and put on ice
Cooked and stewed and badly brewed
And splattered once or twice

Todgrin Tooled Up

Todgrin tooled up.
Had the names of the perps,
Their whereabouts,
Who they were and why
They shot his brother.
He stared at his reflection
In the mirror, took in
The hard eyes, the steely features.
He rehearsed his routine,
How he was going to get
The perps, get them alone,
See the shit scaredness
In their eyes, take his time,
Stretch out the anxiety
In them, see them squirm.
He recalled his brother’s
Last words, mumbled through
Blood and pain, saw the bullet holes,
The mess of body. He looked
At the mirror one last time,
Grinned his grin, sickly, dangerous,
One his brother said could kill
A hawk in mid flight. He waited
Outside the first perps’s place;
Saw him go in, bided his time,
Smoked a French cigarette.
The perp was sitting at a table
When Todgrin pushed a gun
Into the back of his head.
He informed the perp who he was
And why he was there. The perp
Sweated shit, mouthed innocence,
Said it was some other, wrong guy.
Todgrin pulled the trigger; splattered
The table with flesh, bone, and blood.
He took his time cleaning his gun,
Wiped and put away and looked out
The window at a bright sun blessed day.
He flexed his fingers; shook his head.
Three more to go; three more perps;
To bang bang bang dead.

Chihuahua

Chorus:
What can make you move chihuahua
Can you feel the groove chihuahua
What can make you dance chihuahua
Ohh, chihuahua
What can make you sing chihuahua
Take it and youll you win chihuahua
What can bring you joy chihuahua
Ohh, chihuahua
What can make you shout chihuahua
What its all about chihuahua
What can bring you love chihuahua
Ohh, chihuahua
Verse 1:
Im walking in the street and the moon shines bright
A little melody is spinning on my mind tonight
I gotcha its the song about chihuahua
Yeah, thats cool alright ( chihuahua )
It means fun - and a life without sorrow
Feels young - when you think about tomorrow
Say yo - when youre about to freak out
Just go, and then shout it out loud
Verse 2:
Im driving in my car looking for a parking space
There it is my place, someone else wins the race
No, I give up, today is not my day
But then I take a deep breath and say
Calm down - when youre about to go crazy
Turn around - and feel as fresh as a daisy
Just run - because its time to go
Have fun, and let the whole world know ( chihuahua )
Bridge:
Chihuahua here, chihuahua there
Everybody wants it everywhere
Sing it loud and life can be so easy

Lifelong Bonds...

More than the blood of my blood. He is my friend,
my rock...my brother.

Brother, in times of need, never judging, always there.

My Brother, could, would, always make things right.

Brother, never made much ado, about the task at
hand...he just did it.

Brother, who lifted me, when I was down.

Brother, who brought the laughter, amid the pain.

Brother, the word he never spoke...was 'no'.

Brother, who had the answers, to my questions.

Brother, who by example, did walk the path of right.

Brother, in all my years...in all my life, never have
I met another...like my loving brother.

Chameleon

You took me runnin up a wrong way street.
When we got there, you said, cant you read ?
I must be blind, but now and then I see
Another number where mine used to be.
Chorus:
You keep on changin your face, like a chameleon.
You keep on changing your face like a chameleon.
I say whats up, and then you say its down.
I see triangles, and you say its round, round, round.
Saw an empty glass; you said its full.
Lord, its so hot, then you come on cool, cool.

Ruins

Don't try to call
There are some bridges that burn
Beyond recognition beyond repair
Don't say you've changed
There are some forces that turn
Beyond recollection beyond my stare
When I feel the cold in the dark
I know you're there

Long ago I was a woman in pain
A woman in need
I ran to you
Long ago I did not understand
You were making me bleed
I ran to you
When I feel the cold in the dark
I know what you do

[CHORUS]

I will crawl through my past
Over stones blood and glass
In the ruins
Reaching under the fence
As I try to make sense
In the ruins

I know your heart has held its own fear
It's perfectly clear
What they did to you
In my heart it's the screaming I hear
I won't let them come near
Since my love knew you
When I feel the cold in the dark
I remember you

[CHORUS]

Night after night
I am carving it out

I will carry it down to the waterside
Night after night
I am hearing the sound
Of wings that come beating
I will not hide
When I feel the cold in the dark
I will know why

[CHORUS]

But if I am to heal
I must first learn to feel
In the ruins
I will crawl

In a place

Razor in hand.
Blood flows as my skin bleeds.
I have to do this.
I have to bleed.
Its what my body needs.
I need the pain,
I need to feel.
My heart feels made of broken steal.
I have to do this
Just so I feel in place.

My body needs the pain,
Its much better to be able to feel.

Inside I am numb.
My brain is all but mush.

Now the blood is flowing freely,
At last the locked up tears are out,
they flow in my blood freely.
I am in a bad place,

Drift Away

(rod stewart, steve cropper, 1975/1976)
Never get to bed before sunup,
Alway get caught in the rain;
Sometimes I might get in trouble,
Never was one to complain.
Now gentleman, you must agree
Aint it worth it when youre out on cloud thirty-three
To be stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
Never found a dime in a gutter,
Always get my best friends drunk.
If the presdent tries to call me,
Say rodney, come on over for lunch;
Id say, gentlemen, exuse me please
But Im busy with my buddies up on cloud thirty-three.
Yeah, stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
Sunday is a drag, so forget it,
Monday you can make up for that;
Tuesday, take a taste for dinner,
If youre all right spend it in bed.
But on thursday prepare for your weekend
And let friday disappear into saturday mornin
When youre stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
Stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.
I dont mind stone cold sober again,
Down in the alley again,
Stone cold sober again.

Razor Blades and Pain

I feel sharp pain
As the cold razor blade

Slices thought my skin

I relish the longed-for
Pain

It's the only way I feel
I control something

I watch as my
Red blood

Falls on to the white tile

The stinging is still there
A reminder of what I've done

Again and again
The red lines appear

Gently painting a blood red picture

Depicting my life
My struggles

My hate
My sorrow

Everything bad in my life
Every overwhelming thing

Each red stroke helps me

Gives me the will
To go through one day after the next

Living for the next moment
Razor blades

Paint my picture
Dripping in rose-red ink

Living Is A Luxury

Theyre cooking up a storm
In hells kitchen tonight
And the main course could be you
Or try your hand at an eastside stand
Dashin, slashes, in a crazy human zoo
The girls shine like diamonds
In the cold steel of the night
With cash in hand youd better understand
If you want it you can get it any day or night
(pre-chorus)
So if you turn around
And tell me to go to hell
Id say I know that place to well
(chorus)
Where living is a luxury
Theres a bad moon rising in the underground
Living is a luxury
Another drive-by nightmare
In this lonely town
When your blood runs cold
And your souls on ice
Gotta run from the shadows
Of the night
The secrets told with the back alley show
Its a cold sweat, loose bet
Skin tight
Sloe gin is a fast-pace sin
In this hell below your feet
A blue sky day seems so
Far away, with another chalk
Mark on this crazy street
(pre-chorus)
And if you close your eyes to see
You better take a look at me
Ya
(chorus)

Yah Mo B There

By james ingram/michael mcdonald/rod temperton/quincy jones
Heavenly father watching us all
We take from each other and give nothing at all
Well its a dog-gone shame
But never too late for change
So if your luck runs low
Just reach out and call his name, his name
Chorus:
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Yah mo be there (up and over)
Whenever you call
Never be lonely lost in the night
Just run from the darkness
Looking for the light
cause its a long hard road
That leads to a brighter day (hey)
Dont let your heart grow cold
Just reach out and call his name, his name
Chorus:
You can count on it brother
cause were all just finding our way
Travelling through time
People got to keep pushing on
No matter how many dreams slip away
Yah mo be there
Well its a dog-gone shame
But never too late for change
So when your luck runs low
Just reach out and call his name, his name

Shake Dog Shake

Ha ha ha
Wake up in the dark
The after-taste of anger in the back of my mouth
Spit it on the wall
And cough some more
And scrape my skin with razor blades
And make up in the new blood
And try to look so good
Follow me
Make up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is
Ha ha ha
As stale and selfish as a sick dog
Spurning sex like an animal of god
I'll tear your red hair by the roots
And hold you blazing
Hold you cherished in the dead electric light
Your face
I'll never see you this way again
I captured it so perfectly
As if i knew you'd disappear away
Shake shake shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake dog shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake shake shake shake
Shake dog shake
You hit me again
You howl and hit me again
The same sharp pain
Wakes me in the dark
And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
My heart
My shaking heart
My howl my shake dog
Oh shake dog shake
Shake shake
Shake dog shake
But we slept all night in the virgin's bed
And dreamed of death
And breathed like sick dogs
We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And breathed like death
And dreamed of sick dogs
Shake shake
Shake dog shake
Wake up wake up wake up
Shake dog shake
Wake up wake up wake up
Shake dog shake
Wake up in the new blood
Make up in the new blood
Shake up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is
Shake dog shake

Its A Killer

(g. rossington, j.& d. van zant, e. king)
Theres a rumour goin round on the backside of town
Jake is out to get some revenge
Has fire in his eyes since his brother died
Shot down by a so-called friend
For a fifty dollar gram is what the neighbors say
Drugs had control of his life
Caught up on crack youre tryin to think back
The devil had him hooked you could see it in his eyes
Its a killer
Theres a cold house at the corner of the street
The kids come and go there at night
Jerry drove up in front of the house
Somebody pulled out a knife
Jerry freaked out and went for his gun
Shot him right between the eyes
All he ever wanted was a twenty dollar high
But now hes locked up for the rest of his life
(chorus)
Its a killer theres no way out baby once your in
Its a killer steal from your family
Then youll turn on your friends
Its a killer it can happen to you
So dont you never, never give in
Its a killer
The neighborhood I used to call home
These days its lookin like a war zone
Unemployment on the rise but the black market thrives
Money just keeps changin hands
The laws are gettin tough sometimes its not enough
To satisfy supply and demand
Trouble breaks out theres fightin in the streets
Bullets flyin all around
An innocent child caught in the line of fire
All because there werent enough drugs to go around
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus)

Oh, Chihuahua!
I'm walkin in the street and the moon shines bright
A little melody keeps feeling on my mind tonight
I gotcha
It's a song about Chihuahau
Yeah thats cool alright
It was fun
and a life without sorrow feels young
And when you think about tomorrow say yo!
When you're about to freak out
just go and then shout it out loud

Everybody wants it everywhere
Sing it loud and life can be so easy
What can make you move
Chihuahua
Can you feel the groove
Chihuahua
What can bring you joy
Chihuahua
Oh Chihuahua
I'm driving in my car
Looking for a parking space
There it is my place,someone else wins the race
No! i give up
Today is not my day
But then i take a deep breathe and say:
Calm down!
When you're about to crazy, turn around!
And feel as fresh as a daisy,just run!
Because it's time to go,
Have fun and let the whole world know
Chihuahua here,
Chihuahua there,
Everybody wants it everywhere
Sing it loud,
And life can be so easy, Chihuahua!
What can make you move, Chihuahua
Can you feel the groove, Chihuahua
What can make you dance, Chihuahua
Oh Chihuahua!
What can make you sing, Chihuahua
Take it and you win, Chihuahua
What can bring you joy, Chihuahua
Oh Chihuahua

Liar

Verse 1:
We found a place to be
So far from despondency
But you found a thousand ways
To shadow up my face
-Your kisses turned from hot to cold
-And I felt like a centerfold
-Cheap 'n' nasty with dirty men
-Lookin' for love
-That they never will get
Chorus:
Sitting in the dark just feeling low
I'm ruined to the heart - I'm on the road
To nowhere - to nowhere
If you wanna lie to me again
There is a rotten place they call the end
Just go there - and stay there
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
Verse 2:
You took a quick escape
But left your lies in perfect shape
As long as my memories live
I never will forgive you
-So if we meet somewhere tonight
-You'd better be set to fight
-In the darkness of missing stars
-You won't see me
-But you'll feel me inside
Chorus:
Sitting in the dark just feeling low
I'm ruined to the heart - I'm on the road
To nowhere - to nowhere
If you wanna lie to me again
There is a rotten place they call the end
Just go there - and stay there
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
-The winds of change blow through my soul
-And the warlords try to take control
-I will never rely on you
-And the pain will hit you
-Shame on you
Chorus:
Sitting in the dark just feeling low
I'm ruined to the heart - I'm on the road
To nowhere - to nowhere
If you wanna lie to me again
There is a rotten place they call the end
Just go there - and stay there
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
Liar (Oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh-oh oh oh oh)
Chorus:
Sitting in the dark just feeling low
I'm ruined to the heart - I'm on the road
To nowhere - to nowhere
If you wanna lie to me again
There is a rotten place they call the end
Just go there - and stay there
