Do it for love

Do it for love

Baby you can rob a bank
or hold up a 7-11
you can shoplift merchandise
and still buy your way into heaven
all you need is a valid excuse
they’ll tell you it’s a sin to steal
but you’re only as guilty as you feel
just don’t do what the bad people do
you can get away with anything
if you do it for love
you can get away with anything if you do it
but just make sure you’re doing it
you can get away with anything if you do it for love
absolution comes from within
but love alone can save your soul from sin
just don’t do what the bad people do
do it for love and only for love
not for money
or for power or some God up above
no judge or jury ever can convict you, son

Crawl

Crawl

Crawl
into another head
stand up
take a look around – tell me what you see
crawl into another head
now, when I was a baby
I just couldn’t understand
why everybody didn’t think like I did
and it messed with my head
it took me years to overcome it
but I finally did
when I took a little trip in someone else’s head
now, everybody tells me that I gotta have a worldview
well I listen very carefully
but I don’t always know what to do
there’s a lot of bogus causes
phony ideologies
but if you pick yourself the right one
you can set your spirit free
now, I am on the right side maybe
you are on the left side
and we’re looking at the same thing
but we’re looking at it differently
I guess I’m talking about perspective
but it’s different from that
if you can walk around
with someone else’s brain under your hat
it’s a very simple reason
and a lot of people learn it
but a lot of people close their minds
to certain information
they are trying to avoid
any unwanted stimulation
that might make them reevaluate the values that they live by

Moses in my life

Moses in my life

He got a wizened face
And a crooked staff
He works his art
He works his craft
I got Moses in my life
He got the evil eye
He got leather skin
He brings me dirt
He brings me sin
I got Moses in my life
That’s the way he seems to me
That’s the way he seems to be
You know we’re gonna
We’re really gonna
Break the bread !
You know He’s gonna
He’s really gonna
BRING ME THE FISH !!!

Love is the question

Love is the question

Love is the question
that my heart’s been asking
and you are the answer
every night I go to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
if I have to climb a thousand mountains high
I will be there for you, baby
I will show you how to fly
yeah, yeah, yeah
won’t you do it once for me
cover me with kisses, baby

Spade tight

Spade tight

Spade tight!
You got your cards, mama
You lay them on the table
I can’t keep up with you
I can’t believe it! She’s…
Spade tight!
I got you where I want you
I’m leading my best card
She’s right on top of me
I can’t believe it! She’s…
Spade tight!
Woman’s got a hand full of trump
[Don't try to tell me that you don't know how to dance
When the secret to the rhythm's at the end of your pants]
…..SHAKE YOUR SHOES!!!!!!
I gotta make this hand now, mamma
But your picking up every trick
Here she comes…

The Buffalo club

The Buffalo club

I don’t belong to the Buffalo Club
but I sure would like to wake up in the morning
and find out it’s all been a terrible dream
does anybody see it as a warning
have you been out there on the street
pretty lights above your head
pretty bricks beneath your feet
clean off the spray paint on the walls
clean the kids and clean their minds
until there’s nothing left to clean except the sky
have you been checking out the changes
I hear so many names
I see so many different faces
all the suffering from the same disease
did you find out young that life is short
and try to take the easy way out
there’s no easy way out
how I wish that I could be naive
I long to be taken in
tricked into beleiving again

World with no money

World with no money

Not enough days, not enough hours, for the people who want my time
If it were within my power, I would lock you all away with me
In a world with no money
We get caught in a circle, doing nothing over and over again
It’s so easy, just existing, like believing that living is a sin
(What do you want?) I want to live
(What do you want?) Somewhere to go
(What do you want?) I know it’s in here, in here inside me
I want to live in a world with no money
Always saying, never doing, that’s the way I live my life
Gotta get a true religion, I can’t find one here, but i think i might
In a world with no money
It’s a dream – It’s a cop out – a wish for something that will never be
There’s too many people, there’s too much tradition
Too many buildings
And not enough me

You are my fix

You are my fix

Baby, when I look into your eyes I can’t see
Mama, what about has got a hold on me ?
Sweetness, I’m addicted to you, gotta have you by my side
No other girl will do
You are in my system, you are driving through my veins
If I don’t get more of you, I think I’ll go insane
You are my fix, and I need you NOW!
Mama, I get the shivers and shakes
I can’t wait until the next time love we make
Baby you must understand, I have got to be your lover
Gotta be your only man
Cause you are in my system
You are driving through my veins
If I don’t get more of you, I think I’ll go insane

Moses in my life

I got Moses in my life

I got Moses in my life
That’s the way he seems to me
That’s the way he seems to be
You know we’re gonna
We’re really gonna
Break the bread !
You know He’s gonna
He’s really gonna
BRING ME THE FISH !!!
