Sexx Laws
Can't you hear those cavalry drums hijacking your equilibrium?
Midnite snacks in the mausoleum where the pixelated doctors moan
Carnivores in the Kowloon night, breathing freon by the candlelight
Coquettes bitch slap you so polite 'til you thank them for the tea and sympathy
I want to defy the logic of all sexx laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrist
I'll let you be my chaperone at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry
Neptune's lips taste like fermented wine, perfumed blokes on the Ginza line
Running buck wild like a concubine who's mother never held her hand
Brief encounters in Mercedes-Benz, wearing hepatitis contact lens
Bed and breakfast getaway weekends with Sports Illustrated moms
I want to defy the logic of all sexx laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrist
I'll let you be my chaperone at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry
I want to defy the logic of all sexx laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrist
I'll let you be my chaperone at the halfway home
I'm a full grown man but I'm not afraid to cry
Nicotine & Gravy
I'll be your chauffeur on a midnight drive
It takes a miracle just to survive
Buried animals call your name
You keep on sleeping through the poignant rain
I think we're goin' crazy
Her left eye is lazy
She looks so Israeli
Nicotine and gravy
I'll feed you fruit that don't exist
I'll leave graffiti where you've never been kissed
I'll do your laundry, massage your soul
I'll turn you over to the highway patrol
I think we're goin' crazy
Her left eye is lazy
She looks so Israeli
Nicotine and gravy
Na na na na na na na...
I think we're goin' crazy
Things don't even faze me
Her left eye is lazy
Nicotine and gravy
Miracles amaze me
She looks so Israeli
Love the way she plays me
Think I'm going crazy
I don't want to die tonight
I don't want to die tonight
I don't want to die tonight
I don't want to die tonight
You're something special, or so it seems. . .
I don't want to mess up my outfit tonight!
Ahh!
I'll be your chauffeur on a midnight drive
It takes a miracle just to survive
Buried animals call your name
You keep on sleeping through the poignant rain
I think we're goin' crazy
Her left eye is lazy
Things don't even faze me
Nicotine and gravy
Miracles amaze me
She looks so Israeli
Love the way she plays me
Nicotine and gravy
Mixed Bizness
I'm mixing business with leather, Christmas with Heather
Freaks flock together, makin' all the b-boys scream
All right, all right, turn it up now, turn it up now
All right, all right, turn it up now, ooh
Word up to the manthing, she's always cold lamping
Visine at the canteen, I just want to watch you dance
All right, all right, turn it up now, turn it up now
All right, all right, turn it up now, ooh ooh ooh
Do you wanna ride on the Baltic sea?
I'll be your mistress, C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair, rewrite your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me, she can really do me
She can look right through me and make all the b-boys scream
All right, all right, do you wanna boogaloo?
All right, all right, there's a meeting in the ladies room
All right, all right, all the b-boys are naked
All right, all right, in the hot tubs, looking real dope
I'm mixing fitness with leather, homework with Heather
Freaks flock together and make all the lesbians scream
All right, all right, turn it up now, turn it up now
All right, all right, turn it up now, ooh ooh ooh
Do you wanna ride on the Baltic sea?
I'll be your mistress, C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair, rewrite your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me, she can really do me
She can look right through me and make all the b-boys scream
All right, all right, all right, all right
Get Real Paid
Kick it.
We like the boys with the bulletproof vests.
We like the girls with the cellophane chests.
We like the boys with the bulletproof vests.
We like the girls with the cellophane chests.
I know you really want it 'cause your Daddy's always on it.
And he knows just how to flaunt it. He got pictures in his wallet.
And he wanna be your lover. Does he look just like my mother?
Does he cover you like butter and just leave you in the gutter?
I wanna know if I'm worth your time.
There's so much to do before you die.
Thursday night, I think I'm pregnant again.
Touch my ass if you're qualified.
We like to ride on executive planes.
We like to sit around and get real paid.
We like to ride on executive planes.
We like to sit around and get real paid.
I know you really want it 'cause your Daddy's always on it.
And he knows just how to flaunt it. He got pictures in his wallet.

Peaches & Cream
Don't tell your right hand, baby, what your left hand do
You know those road check girls will make your brown breath blue
Oh oh oh, peaches and cream, you make a garbage man scream
It's such a dangerous dream, peaches and cream, peaches and cream
You look good in that sweater and that aluminum crutch
I'm gonna let you down easy, I've got a delicate touch
Oh oh oh peaches and cream, you make a garbage man scream
Come on girl, it's a dream, peaches and cream, peaches and cream
You're a torn out page from a best-selling book
Your home girl's on the line, but your daddy's off the hook
Where do we go now?
Give those pious soldiers another lollipop
'Cause we're on the good ship Menage A Trois
Oh oh oh peaches and cream, you make a garbage man screarm
Such a delicate thing, peaches and cream, peaches and cream
You're the only dream I'm gonna need tonight
You're the only dream I'm gonna need tonight
Keep your lamplight trimmed and burning
Keep your lamplight trimmed and burning
Keep your lamplight trimmed and burning
Keep your lamplight trimmed and burning
Oh oh oh peaches and cream, you make a garbage man scream
Come on girl, it's a dream, peaches and cream, peaches and cream
You make a garbage man scream, such a delicate thing
Oh oh oh peaches and cream, peaches and cream
Broken Train
The snipers are passed out in the bushes again
I'm glad I got my suit dry-cleaned before the riots started
'Cause there's only rehashed faces on the bread line tonight
Soon you'll be a figment of some infamous life
Billionaires smile like weapons, passing out platinum pensions
They're out of control, no one knows how low they'll go
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Those bra-burning deportees at the service station
They know that beige is the color of resignation
We're out of control, no one knows how low we'll go
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Shining like crystal tiaras, ghettoes and grey Rivieras
This is the real me, ladies, you won't find no shelter here
Tell me, what's your zip code baby?
Did you ever let a cowboy sit on your lap?
They're out of control, no one knows how low they'll go
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
We're out of control, we're out of control
We're out of control, we're out of control
Hold on, take a ride on a broken train
Take a ride on a broken train
Milk & Honey
Don't take your red ribbons off
You're about to make a fool of yourself
In the aluminum sunset, drinking from a drain
I'm a hundred miles behind myself
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Make a poor boy wanna run
Milk and honey, do you wanna love me
Under the aluminum sun
Did you hear those war-torn stories
Where the lifeguards slept in the streets
In the jungle lands with the cold cola cans
You'll get the keys to the city for free
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Bring a poor boy to his knees
Milk and honey, now it isn't funny
Living in a garden of sleaze.
Well, I can smell the V.D. in the club tonight.
Excuse me, please. Would you tell me how to get to the Soviet embassy?
Bangkok athletes in the biosphere
Arkansas wet dreams, we all disappear
Kremlin mistress, ring the Buddha chimes
She slips me ruffies, receding hairlines
She's all right. . .touching my body
She's all right. . .on my computer
She's all right. . .selling me watches
She's all right. . .ring on my finger
Milk and honey pouring down like money
Bring a poor boy to his knees
Milk and honey, now it isn't funny
Living in a garden of sleaze
Milk and, milk anddo you wanna?honey!
Milk and honey touching my body
Milk and honey
Milk and honey
Milk and honey
Milk and honey. . .
Beautiful Way
The searchlight's on the skyline just looking for a friend
Who's gonna love my baby when she's gone around the bend?
Egyptian bells are ringing when it's her birthday
A sweet nothin' I'm talking about you, there's a hurricane blowing your way
Ooh such a beautiful way to break your heart
Ooh such a beautiful way to break my heart
There's someone calling your name, it's driving you insane
You were wearing that stained raincoat and your umbrella was a tangled mess
You were washed up on the glittering shoals looking for another crime to confess
You bribed yourself out of a place in the sun, but you had some change to spare
So you said you want to spend it on me and shook the blues out of your hair
Ooh such a beautiful way to break your heart
Ooh such a beautiful way to break my heart
There's someone calling your name, you're gonna miss that train
Ooh such a beautiful way to break your heart
Ooh such a beautiful way to break my heart
There's someone calling your name, it's driving you insane
Pressure Zone
The countryside is overgrown
There's a lighthouse in her soul
Wrestling with butcher girls
She don't ever change her clothes
Masterpieces liquidate in fertile tears
I could sleep inside her bones a hundred years
Lizards in the pressure zone
Mother knows it's only a phase
Cherry gardens feel like ice
Hazard lights from her past
Underneath a broken bridge
Hookers hug illegal dads
Masterpieces liquidate in fertile tears
I could sleep inside her bones a hundred years
Lizards in the pressure zone
Mother knows it's only a phase
Masterpieces liquidate in fertile tears
I could sleep inside her bones a hundred years
Lizards in the pressure zone
Mother knows it's only a phase
It's only a phase
It's only a phase
Debra
Ah yeah, come on. . .
I met you at JC Penny's. I think your name tag said Jenny!
I cold-step to you with a fresh pack of gum.
Somehow I knew you were looking for some. . .oh no!
Like a fruit that's ripe for the picking,
I wouldn't do you like that Zankou Chicken.
'Cause only you got a thing that I just got to get with.
I just got to get, get with you, and you know what we're gonna do.
I wanna get with you, oh girl, and your sister. I think her name is Debra.
I wanna get with you, only you, girl, and your sister. I think her name is Debra, oh!
Oh girl, I only wanna be down with you.
'Cause you got something that I just got to get with.
I pick you up late at night after work. I said, "Lady, step inside my Hyundai.
I'm gonna take you up to Glendale. Yeah, gonna take you for a real good meal."
'Cause when our eyes did meet, girl, you knew I was packing heat.
Ain't no use in wasting no time gettin' to know each other. You know the deal!
'Cause only you've got a thing that I just got to get with, got to get with!
I just got to get with you girl, get with you.
I wanna get with you, only you, girl and your sister. I think her name is Debra.
I wanna get with you, girl yeah! And your sister, I think her name is Debra, ohhh!
