Billy Joel The Entertainer

 

 

I am the entertainer

And I know just where I stand

Another serenader

And another long-haired band

Today I am your champion

I may have won your hearts

But I know the game, you'll forget my name

And I won't be here in another year

If I don't stay on the charts

 

I am the entertainer

And I've had to pay my price

The things I did not know at first

I learned by doin' twice

Ah, but still they come to haunt me

Still they want their say

So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants

I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check

And they go their merry way

 

I am the entertainer

Been all around the world

I've played all kinds of palaces

And laid all kinds of girls

I can't remember faces

I don't remember names

Ah, but what the hell

You know it's just as well

'Cause after a while and a thousand miles

It all becomes the same

 

I am the entertainer

I bring to you my songs

I'd like to spend a day or two

I can't stay that long

No, I've got to meet expenses

I got to stay in line

Gotta get those fees to the agencies

And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay

So I just don't have the time

 

I am the entertainer

I come to do my show

You've heard my latest record

It's been on the radio

Ah, it took me years to write it

They were the best years of my life

It was a beautiful song

But it ran too long

If you're gonna have a hit

You gotta make it fit

So they cut it down to 3:05

 

I am the entertainer

The idol of my age

I make all kinds of money

When I go on the stage

Ah, you've seen me in the papers

I've been in the magazines

But if I go cold I won't get sold

I'll get put in the back in the discount rack

Like another can of beans

 

I am the entertainer

And I know just where I stand

Another serenader

And another long-haired band

Today I am your champion

I may have won your hearts

But I know the game, you'll forget my name

I won't be here in another year

If I don't stay on the charts

dedicated to Beer O'clock

 

One night love affair

 

You're the silent type

And you caught my eye

But I never thought that I'd be touchin' you

How was I to know

I'd let my feelin's go

And that I'd be yours before the night was through

 

One night love affair

Tryin' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Pretendin' it ain't there

Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

 

When the mornin' breaks

We go our separate ways

If the night was made for love it ain't for keeps

 

But I lose control

As I watch you go

All my senses say I'm in this much too deep

Now you're outa reach

 

One night love affair

Tryin' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Pretendin' we don't care

Oh - and now we're left with nothin'

 

Solo

 

One night love affair

Trying' to make like we don't care

We were both reachin' out for somethin'

 

One night love affair

Sometimes life ain't fair

Oh - and not we're left with nothin'

Do the right thing!

John Lennon Watching the Wheels

 

 

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing,

Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin,

When I say that I'm o.k. they look at me kind of strange,

Surely your not happy now you no longer play the game,

 

People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away,

Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me,

When I tell that I'm doing Fine watching shadows on the wall,

Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball?

 

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,

I really love to watch them roll,

No longer riding on the merry-go-round,

I just had to let it go,

 

People asking questions lost in confusion,

Well I tell them there's no problem,

Only solutions,

Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind,

I tell them there's no hurry...

I'm just sitting here doing time,

 

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,

I really love to watch them roll,

No longer riding on the merry-go-round,

I just had to let it go.

For my one and only.. Sweetie ;)

 

 

 

 

We've only just begun to live,

White lace and promises

A kiss for luck and we're on our way.

And yes, We've just begun.

 

Before the rising sun we fly,

So many roads to choose

We start our walking and learn to run.

And yes, We've just begun.

 

Sharing horizons that are new to us,

Watching the signs along the way,

Talking it over just the two of us,

Working together day to day

Together.

 

And when the evening comes we smile,

So much of life ahead

We'll find a place where there's room to grow,

And yes, We've just begun.

Jackson Brown Lawyers in Love

 

I can't keep up with what's been going on

I think my heart must just be slowing down

Among the human beings in their designer jeans

Am I the only one who hears the screams

And the strangled cries of lawyers in love

God sends his spaceships to America, the beautiful

They land at six o'clock and there we are, the dutiful

Eating from TV trays, tuned into to Happy Days

Waiting for World War III while Jesus slaves

To the mating calls of lawyers in love

Last night I watched the news from Washington, the capitol

The Russians escaped while we weren't watching them, like Russians will

Now we've got all this room, we've even got the moon

And I hear the U.S.S.R. will be open soon

As vacation land for lawyers in love

Toby Keith Courtesy Of The Red, White And Blue

 

 

 

American Girls and American Guys

We’ll always stand up and salute

We’ll always recognize

When we see Old Glory Flying

There’s a lot of men dead

So we can sleep in peace at night

When we lay down our head

 

My daddy served in the army

Where he lost his right eye

But he flew a flag out in our yard

’til the day that he died

He wanted my mother, and my brother, my sister and me

To grow up and live happy

In the land of the free.

 

Now this nation that I love

Has fallen under attack

A mighty sucker punch came flyin in

From somewhere in the back

Soon as we could see clearly

Through our big black eye

Man, we lit up your world

Like the 4th of July

 

Hey Uncle Sam

Put your name at the top of his list

And the Statue of Liberty

Started shakin her fist

And the eagle will fly

And its gonna be hell

When you hear Momma Freedom

Start ringin her bell

It’ll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you

Ahw brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue

 

 

Justice will be served

And the battle will rage

This big dog will fight

When you rattle his cage

You’ll be sorry that you messed with

The U.S. of A.

'Cause we'll put a BOOT in your ass

It's the American way

 

Hey Uncle Sam

Put your name at the top of his list

And the Statue of Liberty

Started shakin’ her fist

And the eagle will fly

Man, it’s gonna be hell

When you hear Momma Freedom

Start ringin’ her bell

And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you now

Haw brought to you Courtesy of the Red White and Blue

For those poor, pitiful fools at the jungle. AKA "WE"

 

 

The Warren Brothers King Of Nothing Lyrics.. with special guest, wez

(Brett Warren/Brad Warren/James House) and wez

 

"We" live in this jungle all alone

"We" must have built these walls with a heart of stone

Whoa can’t you see

Whoa what you’re doing to yourself

 

You're standin’ on top of the world tonight

But you feel like jumpin’

"We" had it all when "we" had wez in our life

But now that he's banned

Without wezzies love "we're" the king of nothing

 

"We" got a lot of things money can buy

I’d sell them all just to get wez off our mind baby

Whoa can’t you see

Whoa what you’re doing to yourself

 

You're standin’ on top of the world tonight

But you feel like jumpin’

"We" had it all when "we" had wez in our life

But now that he's banned

Without wezzies love "we're" the king of nothing

 

Whoa can’t you see

Whoa what you’re doing to yourself

 

You're standin’ on top of the world tonight

But you feel like jumpin’

"We" had it all when "we" had wez in our life

But now that he's banned

Without wezzies love "we're" the king of nothing

 

Without wezzies love baby

Oh, "we're" nothing

"We're" the king of nothing my baby

Without wezzies love baby

Ooh baby

Alice Cooper No More Mr Nice Guy

 

I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing

Till they got a hold of me

I opened doors for little old ladies

I helped the blind to see

I got no friends 'cause they read the papers

They can't be seen with me

And I'm gettin' real shot down

And I'm feelin' mean

 

No more Mister Nice Guy

No more Mister Clean

No more Mister Nice Guy

They say he's sick, he's obscene

 

I got no friends 'cause they read the papers

They can't be seen with me

And I'm feelin' real shot down

And I'm gettin' mean

 

No more Mister Nice Guy

No more Mister Clean

No more Mister Nice Guy

They say he's sick, he's obscene

 

My dog bit me on the leg today

My cat clawed my eye

Mom's been thrown out of the social circles

And dad has to hide

I went to church incognito

When everybody rose the Reverend Smithy

He recognized me and punched me in the nose

 

He said, no more Mister Nice Guy

No more Mister Clean

No more Mister Nice Guy

He said you're sick, you're obscene

For peddo.. and the object of his desire and who's shit stains his lips.. BCAR

 

Metallica.. fight fire with fire.

 

Do unto others as they have done unto you

But what in the hell is this world coming to?

 

Blow the universe into nothingness

Nuclear warfare shall lay us to rest

[chorus:]

Fight fire with fire

Ending is near

Fight fire with fire

Bursting with fear

 

We shall die

Time is like a fuse, short and burning fast

Armageddon is here, like said in the past

[chorus]

 

Soon to fill our lungs the hot winds of death

The gods are laughing, so take your last breath

[chorus]

 

 

Better post I'm off limits at TJ eddo... letters in the mail, going to say hi to an old friend.

Worley Darryl Have You Forgotten?

 

 

 

I hear people saying we don't need this war

I say there's some things worth fighting for

What about our freedom and this piece of ground

We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down

They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in

Before you start your preaching let me ask you this my friend

 

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?

To see your homeland under fire

And her people blown away

Have you forgotten when those towers fell?

We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell

And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

 

They took all the footage off my T.V.

Said it's too disturbing for you and me

It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say

If it was up to me I'd show it everyday

Some say this country's just out looking for a fight

After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

 

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?

To see your homeland under fire

And her people blown away

Have you forgotten when those towers fell?

We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell

And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

 

I've been there with the soldiers

Who've gone away to war

And you can bet that they remember

Just what they're fighting for

 

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?

To see your homeland under fire

And her people blown away

Have you forgotten when those towers fell?

We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell

And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

 

Have you forgotten all the people killed?

Some went down like heros in that Pennsylvania field

Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?

All the loved ones that we lost and those left to carry on

Don't you tell me not to worry about bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

 

Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?

For Eddo, and his fantasy of ever finding someone that will have sex with him...

 

Rainbow.. Jealous lover.. with special guest appearance by wez on lead vocals..

 

 

Lost and lonely

Clouds hide the sun

Out on the highway

It's over and done

Cold empty nights

Demons in his head

It's something eddo did

Or baby something he said

And it's hard to discover

That he's just another

Jealous Lover

And its so tough to take

But Eddo's making a mistake

Jealous Lover

Oh Yeah

Don't want no other

Shades of red

Eyes of green

Sees black and white

And there's no in between

Ask eddo questions

He'll tell you all lies

Still he keep thinking

That it's all alibis

And it's hard to discover

He's like any other

Jealous Lover

And I'm saying Eddo's a fake

And I'm making no mistake

Oh, no no

Every day it's the same

The faces and the names

How long can Eddo go on

Playing this game

So he lives for the nights

Soft candle lights

Today "we" love you

Then tomorrow "we" might

And it's hard to face

Someone else takes your place

Jealous Lover

And they're saying that's the brakes

But Eddo aint got what it takes

Jealous Lover, ohh oh

Jealous Lover

Jealous Lover

Don't need no, no no

Don't need no other

Jealous Lover, yeah

John Fogerty Deja Vu

 

 

 

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Did you try to read the writing on the wall

Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before

It's like Deja Vu all over again

 

Day by day I hear the voices rising

Started with a whisper like it did before

Day by day we count the dead and dying

Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score

 

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Could your eyes believe the writing on the wall

Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before

It's like Deja Vu all over again

 

One by one I see the old ghosts rising

Stumblin' 'cross Big Muddy

Where the light gets dim

Day after day another Momma's crying

She's lost her precious child

To a war that has no end

 

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio

Did you stop to read the writing at The Wall

Did that voice inside you say

I've seen this all before

It's like Deja Vu all over again

I can't believe that I searched every page of this post, all 32.. And found no Johnny Cash.. Have you people no decency? lol :)

 

Johnny Cash.. I walk the Line.

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine

I keep my eyes wide open all the time.

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

Because you're mine,

I walk the line

 

I find it very, very easy to be true

I find myself alone when each day is through

Yes, I'll admit I'm a fool for you

Because you're mine,

I walk the line

 

As sure as night is dark and day is light

I keep you on my mind both day and night

And happiness I've known proves that it's right

Because you're mine,

I walk the line

 

You've got a way to keep me on your side

You give me cause for love that I can't hide

For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide

Because you're mine,

I walk the line

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.

Another of my favorites..

 

 

Man in Black...

 

 

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,

Why you never see bright colors on my back,

And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.

Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

 

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,

Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,

I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,

But is there because he's a victim of the times.

 

I wear the black for those who never read,

Or listened to the words that Jesus said,

About the road to happiness through love and charity,

Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

 

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,

In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,

But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,

Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

 

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,

For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,

I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

 

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,

Believen' that the Lord was on their side,

I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,

Believen' that we all were on their side.

 

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,

And things need changin' everywhere you go,

But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,

You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

 

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,

And tell the world that everything's OK,

But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,

'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black.

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.

And one more..lol. One of my all time favorite, Johnny Cash songs ever..

 

Boy named Sue

 

My daddy left home when I was three

And he didn't leave much to ma and me

Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.

Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid

But the meanest thing that he ever did

Was before he left, he went and named me "Sue."

 

Well, he must o' thought that is quite a joke

And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,

It seems I had to fight my whole life through.

Some gal would giggle and I'd get red

And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,

I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named "Sue."

 

Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean,

My fist got hard and my wits got keen,

I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame.

But I made a vow to the moon and stars

That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars

And kill that man who gave me that awful name.

 

Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July

And I just hit town and my throat was dry,

I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.

At an old saloon on a street of mud,

There at a table, dealing stud,

Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me "Sue."

 

Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad

From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had,

And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.

He was big and bent and gray and old,

And I looked at him and my blood ran cold

And I said: "My name is 'Sue!' How do you do!

Now your gonna die!!"

 

Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes

And he went down, but to my surprise,

He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.

But I busted a chair right across his teeth

And we crashed through the wall and into the street

Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.

 

I tell ya, I've fought tougher men

But I really can't remember when,

He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.

I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss,

He went for his gun and I pulled mine first,

He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.

 

And he said: "Son, this world is rough

And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough

And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya along.

So I give ya that name and I said goodbye

I knew you'd have to get tough or die

And it's the name that helped to make you strong."

 

He said: "Now you just fought one hell of a fight

And I know you hate me, and you got the right

To kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you do.

But ya ought to thank me, before I die,

For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye

Cause I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you "Sue.'"

 

I got all choked up and I threw down my gun

And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,

And I came away with a different point of view.

And I think about him, now and then,

Every time I try and every time I win,

And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him

Bill or George! Anything but Sue! I still hate that name

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.

This is my all time favorite Johhny Cash song..

 

Johnny Cash

Hurt

 

 

[Originally by Nine Inch Nails]

 

I hurt myself today

To see if I still feel

I focus on the pain

The only thing that's real

The needle tears a hold

The old familiar sting

Try to kill it all away

But I remember everything

 

[Chorus:]

What have I become

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

 

I wear this crown of thorns

Upon my liar's chair

Full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time

The feelings disappear

You are someone else

I am still right here

 

[Chorus:]

What have I become

My ssweetest friend

Everyone I know goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

 

If I could start again

A million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.

Billy Joel is the king of lyics

 

 

Billy Joel Keeping the Faith

 

 

If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember

If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days

Oh, then you should have known me much better

Cause my past is something that never got in my way

Oh no

 

Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger

And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends

Oh, 'Cause I never felt the desire 'til their music set me on fire

And then I was saved, yeah

That's why I'm keeping the faith

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith

 

We wore matador boots

Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel

Iridescent socks with the same color shirt

And a tight pair of chinos

Oh, I put on my shark skin jacket

You know the kind with the velvet collar

And ditty-bop shades, oh yeah

I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen

My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave

Oh, I combed my hair in a pompadour

Like the rest of the Romeos wore a permanent wave, yeah

We were keeping the faith

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith

 

You can get just so much from a good thing

You can linger too long in your dreams

Say goodbye to the "Oldies But Goodies"

Cause the good ole days weren't always good

And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems

 

Learned stickball as a formal education

Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.

Oh, I heard about sex but not enough

I found you could dance and still look tough anyway, oh yes I did

I found out a man ain't just being macho

Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food

Drank a lot of take-home pay

I thought I was the Duke of Earl

When I made it with a red-haired girl in the Chevrolet

Oh yeah, we were keeping the faith

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith

 

You know the good ole days weren't always good

And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems

 

Now I told you my reasons for the whole revival

Now I'm going outside to have an ice cold beer in the shade

Oh, I'm going to listen to my 45's

Ain't it wonderful to be alive

When the rock 'n' roll plays, yeah

When the memory stays, yeah

I'm keeping the faith

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, keeping the faith

I'm keeping the faith, yes I am

You know I'm keeping the faith, oh yes I am

You know I'm keeping the faith, oh you are

Everyone I know goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

 

I wear this crown of thorns

Upon my liar's chair

Full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time

The feelings disappear

You are someone else

I am still right here

 

[Chorus:]

What have I become

My ssweetest friend

Everyone I know goes away

In the end

And you could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt

 

If I could start again

A million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

 

 

Nah, this one's better :D

 

I hear the train a comin'

It's rollin' 'round the bend,

And I ain't seen the sunshine,

Since, I don't know when,

I'm stuck in Folsom Prison,

And time keeps draggin' on,

But that train keeps a-rollin',

On down to San Antone.

 

When I was just a baby,

My Mama told me, "Son,

Always be a good boy,

Don't ever play with guns,"

But I shot a man in Reno,

Just to watch him die,

When I hear that whistle blowin',

I hang my head and cry.

 

I bet there's rich folks eatin',

In a fancy dining car,

They're probably drinkin' coffee,

And smokin' big cigars,

But I know I had it comin',

I know I can't be free,

But those people keep a-movin',

And that's what tortures me.

 

Well, if they freed me from this prison,

If that railroad train was mine,

I bet I'd move out over a little,

Farther down the line,

Far from Folsom Prison,

That's where I want to stay,

And I'd let that lonesome whistle,

Blow my Blues away.

"Possession"

By Sarah McLaughlin

 

(Reminds me of someone)

 

Listen as the wind blows,

From across the great divide.

Voices trapped in yearning,

Memories trapped in time.

The night is my companion,

And solitude my guide.

Would I spend forever here,

And not be satisfied?

 

And I would be the one to hold you down,

Kiss you so hard,

I'll take your breath away,

And after, I'd wipe away the tears,

Just close your eyes dear.

 

Through this world I've stumbled,

So many times betrayed.

Trying to find an honest word

To find the truth enslaved.

Oh, you speak to me in riddles,

And you speak to me in rhyme.

My body aches to breathe your breath,

Your words keep me alive

 

And I would be the one to hold you down,

Kiss you so hard,

I'll take your breath away,

And after, I'd wipe away the tears,

Just close your eyes dear.

 

Into this night I wander,

It's morning that I dread.

Another day of knowing of,

The path I fear to tread.

Oh, into the sea of waking dreams,

I follow without pride

'Cause nothing stands between us here

And I won't be denied

 

And I would be the one to hold you down,

Kiss you so hard,

I'll take your breath away,

And after, I'd wipe away the tears,

Just close your eyes dear.

I'll hold you down,

Kiss you so hard,

I'll take your breath away,

And after, I'd wipe away the tears,

Just close your eyes...

"Highwayman" - by the Highwaymen (Johnny, Willie, Waylon and Kris)

 

(One of my favorites)

 

I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride

With sword and pistol by my side

Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade

Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade

The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five

But I am still alive.

 

I was a sailor. I was born upon the tide

And with the sea I did abide.

I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico

I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow

And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed

But I am living still.

 

I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide

Where steel and water did collide

A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado

I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below

They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound

But I am still around..I'll always be around..and around and around and

around and around

 

I fly a starship across the Universe divide

And when I reach the other side

I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can

Perhaps I may become a highwayman again

Or I may simply be a single drop of rain

But I will remain

And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again

This is one of my husband's favorite's.. Why? I dont know.. lol

 

 

 

Confederate Railroad

 

Trashy side

 

 

Well, I raised in a sophisticated kind of style

Yeah, my taste in music and women drove my folks half wild

Mom and dad had a plan for me, it was debutantes and symphonies

But I like my music, I like my women wild

 

CHORUS

Yeah, I like my women just a little on the trashy side

When they wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed

Too much lipstick and too much rouge

Gets me excited, leaves me feeling confused

And I like my women just a little on the trashy side

 

Should've seen the looks on the faces of my dad and mom

When I showed up at the door with a date for the senior prom

They said, well, pardon us son, she ain't no kid

That's a cocktail waitress in a Dolly Parton wig

I said I know it dad, ain't she cool, that's the kind I dig

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

I like 'em sweet, I like 'em with a heart of gold

Yeah and I like 'em brassy, I like 'em brazen and bold

Well, they say opposites attract, but I don't agree

I want a woman just as tacky as me

Yeah, I like my women just a little on the trashy side

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.

Alice Cooper

 

Only women bleed..

 

 

Man got his woman to take his seed he got the power oh she got the need

She spends her life through pleasing up her man she feeds him dinner or anything she can

She cries alone at night too often he smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

Man makes your hair grey he's your life's mistake all you're really looking for's an even break

He lies right at you you now hate this game he slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain

She cries alone at night too often he smokes and drinks and don't come home at all ooh

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

Man got his woman to take his seed he got the power oh she got the need

She spends her life through pleasing up her man she feeds him dinner or anything she can

She cries alone at night too often he smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

Black eyes all of the time don't spend a dime clean up this grime

And you there down on your knees begging me please come watch me bleed

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

Only women bleed only women bleed only women bleed

I want a sensitive man - one who'll cry when I hit him.
