Don't Cry

You say that you're misunderstood
But you like it that way
Then you say you're lonely
Well that's the price you pay

And I don't think I love you
That's the cruellest game we play
But I love you that way

You're a perfect lover
Why don't you stay?
You're a perfect lover
Ain't it always that way?

You feel a little twisted
You feel a little pain
You feel a little hateful
Don't worry, you'll feel that way again

Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me
Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me

You say that you're not beautiful
But you are in my eyes
You say my love's too heavy
Well that comes as no surprise

You're a perfect lover
Why don't you stay?
You're a perfect lover
Ain't it always that way?

You feel a little twisted
And you feel a little pain
You feel a little hateful
Don't worry, you'll fall in love again

Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me
Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me

It's already over
There's nothing to say
It's already over
But you need love to show you your way

Don't cry for me
Don't you cry
Don't cry, don't cry for me

You're the perfect lover
Why don't you stay?
You're the perfect lover
Ain't it always that way?

You feel a little pain
Don't worry, you'll fall in love again

Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me
Cry, don't cry, don't cry for me

You Are My Heroin

It's great to be young

Didn't anyone tell you
That life was a lousy substitute
You're not packing with angels now
In your undertaker's suit
It's funky down in the gutter
That's what all the bitches say
I'll just call it a celebration
If the devil walks my way

You are my heroin
You are my heroin

Welcome into the garden Sarah
Come see how my roses die
We were looking for Heaven
Couldn't bear to pass you by
There are stories of bad luck, yeah
But they come to bless us all
If it's true that you doubt it
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall

You are my heroin
You are my heroin
You are my heroin

I was talking to sweet thing
She said hang your horses high
There are jokers and tokers
Here's some pills you ought to try
Some say it's a vacation
Some say I will never die
God won't stop at my station
Hear all the mothers cry

You are my heroin
You are my heroin
You are my heroin

You keep saying kick it, quit it
Lord but did you ever try.
To turn your sick soul inside out
So that the world can watch you die
Home is where I live inside
My home is filled with pain
And it might not be such a bad idea
If I never went home again

You are my heroin
You are my heroin
You are my heroin

There are stories of bad luck, yeah
But they come to bless us all
If it's true that you doubt it
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall

You are my heroin
You are my heroin
You know that it's true

I Go Where I Go

I go where I go
You don't need to let me know
I go where I go

Baby I know this ain't perfection
But you're good to me sometimes
Holding onto love for those moments
Some would say is a waste of my time

When I hold you up people say I'm sad
Sad and lonely
When you put me down people say I'm sad
But they don't know me

I go where I go
You don't need to let me know
I go where I go
Where I go

People tell me boy, it's foolish
Always got so much to say
Lovers, dreamers, come between us
But we always find our way

If you break my heart I will still be here
Like a broken fool
Told you from the start, pain won't make us part
That's the golden rule

I go where I go
You don't need to let me know
I go where I go
I go where I go

They don't tell us nothing new
We're as bright as day
Live on love, that's what we do
This is what I say

I go where I go
I go where I go
You don't need to tell me so
I go where I go
I go where I go
You don't need to tell me so

I go where I go
You don't need to let me know
I go where I go
You don't need to tell me so

Whisper

You bet that I cannot resist it
When you move inside my life
Touching souls I feel restricted
And I know that it's not wise
I can tell so much is changing
But I'm blinded by desire
Won't some God come down from Heaven
And set me free, set me on fire

Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone, no comfort in sight
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Too afraid and much too uptight

When you say that it's forever
I believe it every time
But out of reach, that ain't together
I need someone to be mine
I'm just shouting at the devil
And my kind of love is greed
But don't show too much affection
Cause I'm willing, yeah
I'm willing to let you bleed

Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone, no comfort in sight
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Too afraid to put up a fight

Don't believe that you're invincible
To fall in love
And you know that love won't save you
Cause those kind of feelings
You know they never do
They never do

Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone, no comfort in sight
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Too afraid and much too uptight

I'm just walking alone
You know I'm just walking

I'm just shouting at the devil
And my kind of love is greed
Don't you show too much affection
Cause I'm willing, I'm willing to let you bleed

Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone, no comfort in sight
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
I'm too afraid to put up a fight

Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
I'm not lonely I'm not afraid
Walking alone in the whisper of nightime
Walking alone...

Something Strange Called Love

Oh you slide so good
But just take your time
Drink the blood of fools
I've got to make you mine
Speak in devils tongue
Fake the spoken word
Play with silence now
Well that's what I've heard

I've felt this love I felt this pain
I felt this heartache too

Something strange called love is happening to me
Something strange called love is happening to me

Oh you slide so good
With your bones so fair
You've got the universe
Reclining in your hair
Say my love is good
Say we're not too old
I call you jaguar
If I may be so bold

I've felt this love I felt this pain
I felt this heartache too
I came so close but no one knows
The love I felt for you

Something strange called love is happening to me
Something strange called love is happening to me

They say that we're much too young
To fall in love
Well, what do they know?
They say that our kind of love
Just ain't enough
Well what do they know?

Something strange called love

Oh you slide so good
But just take your time
Drink the blood of fools
I've got to make you mine
Speak in devils tongue
Fake the spoken word
Play with silence now

I've felt this love I felt this pain
I felt this heartache too
I came so close but no one knows
The love I felt for you

Something strange called love is happening to me

I Love You

Love you, blimey, some men are funny

(I love you
Do you love me?
I love you
Do you love me?)

Take a look at yourself my darling
Don't ya like what you see
Dip your foot in the pool and wonder
Is it colder than me?

Take a look at my arms oh baby
See the wounds of my youth
There were times when I could not take it
Seek the negative truth

I love you
Like the stars love the sky
And they're never lonely
I love you
'Cause you're weak, incomplete and
You're never phoney
I love you
Yes I do, yes I do
But you'll never own me

I never said I'd be good in bed

Take a look at me golden hooker
Just you swallow your pride
Take a look at me my good looker
There's a devil inside

Never sleep with your windows open
Never tell them you cry
Never tell them that you feel lonely
Coz they'll spit in your eye

I love you
I used to dream of a stream
But I need an ocean
I love you
Falling head over heels
With the slightest notion
I love you
You can stay for a while
But don't pledge devotion

I never said get inside my head

I love you
I love you I hate you
Don't mean to frustrate you
I love you
I love you I hate you
Don't mean to frustrate you

(Do you love me?)

See the queen
And his old reminder
That you've never been cool
Turn your back 'cause
The spite will blind you
It's incredibly cruel

Take a look at the fools around you
See the beggar inside
There were times when I got so holy
Now I wish I had lied

I love you
Like the stars love the sky
And they're never lonely
I love you
'Cause you're weak, incomplete and
You're never phoney
I love you
Yes I do, yes I do
But you'll never own me

I love you
I love you
I never said I'd be good in bed
I love you
I love you
I never said get inside my head
I love you
I love you
I used to dream of a stream but I need an ocean
I love you

Mama Never Knew

Those early days
Who said patience never pays?
It's a man's world we're living in
But that don't mean you have to start giving in

When he says, woman, there's a place for you
That don't mean that's what you have to do
There's a gift somebody gave to you
It's called talking and saying out loud

My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew
Oh she never knew
But I do, yes I do
Oh my mama she never knew
Yes I do

It was late, late in life
When my mama started to fight
She said man, boy what the hell are you
Gonna break up this room with a word or two

If it seems I ain't good enough for you
Then you know just what you have to do
Pack your bags honey, take your life with you
Go on walk out that door I won't say it no more

My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew
Oh she never knew
But I do, yes I do
Oh my mama she never knew
She never knew
Yes I do

Tied to the cross
Sometimes I feel like an anchor in your life
I'm just a woman
But more than a woman I have in my life
She said, You bring me down
You turn me around
If there's a justice
I want justice in this life

My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew but I do
Yes I do

Those early days who said
Patience never pays?
It's a man's world we're living in
But that don't mean you have to start giving in

When he says, woman, there's a place for you
That don't mean that's what you have to do
There's a gift somebody gave to you
It's called talking and saying out loud

My mama never knew but I do, I do
My mama never knew
Oh she never knew
But I do, yes I do
Oh my mama she never knew
Yes I do

Just like a woman
She knows everything

What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted

As I walk this land of broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion

What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of piece of mind

Help me, please

The roots of love grow all around
But for me they come tumblin' down
Every day hearts grow a little stronger
I can't stand this pain much longer

I walk in shadows searching for light
Cold and alone, no comfort in sight
Always searching for someone to care
Always moving but going nowhere

What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I know I've got to find
Some kind of piece of mind

Help me, please
Help me, please
Oh yeah baby won't you help me, please
Help me

I'm searching though I don't succeed
For someone's love there's a growing need
All is love there's no hope for beginning
All that's left is an unhappy ending

What becomes of the broken hearted
Who have love that's now departed
I've been searching everywhere
Just to find someone to care
I've been looking everywhere
I know I'm gonna find it
I know that we'll find it
'Cause we're standing right behind it

American Boyz

American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz

I saw a sweet set of eyes down in makeshift Hollywood
Where the black boys tap New York and the white guys wish they could
He was standing feet sweet looking good to go, yeah
I could swing this city but the traffic moves too slow

American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are sweet if you handle it trick or treat
American girls stand tall but American boyz

I saw some crying eyes down on C 'n' 79
There was a hitman on the phone he was try'na crush a friend of mine
Me and Merri were flying just above the flame
Oh lord he was pretty but he loved to smoke cocaine

American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue, yeah
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are so sweet but don't ever be too scared to speak
American girls stand tall but American boyz

Talking about American boyz

I made out in the back of a yellow taxi
God it was cold but I took the safest route
I was high, heridity, all the lights poked fun at me
Acid makes you feel like you're in a movie

American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall but American boyz
American girls stand tall

American boyz spit junk like you breed virtue, yeah
American boyz say look out here comes a fool
American boyz are so sweet but don't ever be too scared to speak
American girls are cool but American boyz

American boyz are studs on the highway
And life is a quest without recreation
God is a beach so glad you could make it
American boyz one chance better take it

All American
All American boyz
How American is American?

Happy Family

You Found Another Guy

Won't you tell me why?
You found another guy, tell me why
You found another guy

In the beginning things were just fine
I was so romantic, I thought that you were mine
I saw so happy, now I'm depressed
I'm so tired of this loneliness

You packed your bags, then you went away
I haven't seen you since that cold, cold day!
I gotta have you back no matter what it takes
So tell me why, you found another guy.

Tell me why
You found another guy
Yell me why
You didn't want me

I'm Not Sleeping Anymore

Why do you make it hard to love you
You know sometimes it's hard to care
If you just give me time
Let me free up my mind I'll be there

You want to be the perfect lover, I know you do
But talk is cheap why does it show
I know one day you're gonna find
That all lovers, they're blind
You know that they are

But I'm not sleeping anymore
I'm not sleeping anymore

You see I woke up to find
You were still on my mind
You know that you are
Yes you know that you are

You say that you need me
Give me time
You know that you'll always
Always be mine

Cause I woke up to find
You were still on my mind
You know that you are
Yes you know that you are

But I'm not sleeping anymore
I'm not sleeping anymore

You know one day you're gonna find
That all lovers, they're blind
You know that they are
You know that you are

I'm not sleeping anymore

Lies

Lie, you live and then you die
When I was seventeen
I used to fool myself
That I was on my own
That there was no one else
I took a look around
And I began to see
The world is full of fools
That feel the same as me
That feel the same as me

Lie all you ever do is lie
Lie all you ever do is lie

I know the road goes up
I know the road goes down
No need to act so tough
Just stay above the ground

You turn your tricks and say
That I should use my eyes
Why don't you move on out
Stop telling me your lies
Stop telling me your lies

Big Dark Man (Waiting)

Someone said that love
Was a double handed glove
But we need it al the time
Alice she's got mark
Warren's in the dark
Because his body's superfly

Me I'm just a sucker
Waiting for a lover
Someone with a wicked smile
What's a boy to do
What's a girl to do
What's the point to underline

Waiting for a big dark man
She's waiting for a big
Dark man

Someone said that sex
Was a physical contest
But I don't believe a word
They say love is cool
Then they must be fools
Because of all the things
I've heard

Someone said that hippie
Was a little trippy
But he is a friend of mine
Jeremy he throws
But he might overdose
If he finds a girl tonite

Girlfriend

You must be screaming
Your love is walking away
I've got this feeling
You must be screaming
But I just wanted to say

Girlfriend, everybody needs
A boyfriend,
Cos when you've got a boyfriend
You've got something else to do

If you want to keep your man
Be a devil if you have to
Hold on to him girl

Defeat you
There are others that
Will leave you dry
Go on girl
Take your love and wrap
It around
The first sucker that you meet
What's the matter honey
Did your neck throw up?
Just get off my face
