Around The World

All around the world 
We could make time 
Rompin and a stompin’ 
‘Cause I’m in my prime 

Born in the north 
And sworn to entertain ya 
‘Cause I’m down for 
The state of Pennsylvania 

I try not to whine 
But I must warn ya 
‘Bout the girls 
From California 

Alabama baby 
Said hallelujah 
Good god girl 
I wish I knew ya 

I know I know for sure 
That life is beautiful around the world 
I know I know it’s you 
You say hello and then I say I do 

Come back baby 
‘Cause I’d like to say 
I’ve been around the world 
Back from Bombay 

Fox hole love 
Pie in your face 
Living in and out 
Of a big fat suitcase 

Bonafide ride 
Step aside my Johnson 
Yes I could 
In the woods of Wisconsin 

Wake up the cake 
It’s a lake she’s kissin’ me 
As they do when 
When they do in Sicily 

I know I know for sure 
That life is beautiful around the world 
I know I know it’s you 
You say hello and then I say I do 

Where you want to go 
Who you want to be 
What you want to do 
Just come with me 

I saw God 
And I saw the fountains 
You and me girl 
Sittin’ in the Swiss mountains 

Me Oh My O 
Me and Guy O 
Freer than a bird 
‘Cause we’re rockin’ Ohio 

Around the world 
I feel dutiful 
Take a wife 
‘Cause life is beautiful 

I know I know for sure 
I know I know it’s you 

Mother Russia do not suffer 
I know you’re bold enough 
I’ve been around the world 
And I have seen your love 
I know I know it’s you 

You say hello then I say I do


Parallel Universe

Deep inside of a parallel universe 
It’s getting harder and harder 
To tell what came first 

Under water where thoughts can breathe Easily

Far away you were made in a sea 
Just like me 

Chorus: 
Christ I’m a sidewinder I’m a 
California King 
I swear it’s everywhere 
It’s everything 

Staring straight up into the sky 
Oh my my a solar system that fits 
In your eye Microcosm 

You could die but your never dead spider web 
Take a look at the stars in 
Your head fields of space kid 

Chorus x 2 

Psychic changes are born in your heart
Entertain 
A nervous breakthrough that makes us the
same 
Bless your heart girl 

Kill the pressure it’s raining on 
Salty Cheeks 
When you hear the beloved song 
I am with you 

Chorus x 2


Scar Tissue

Scar tissue that I wish you saw 
Sarcastic mister know it all 
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ‘cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 

Push me up against the wall 
Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra 
Fallin’ all over myself 
To lick your heart and taste your health ‘cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view... 

Blood loss in a bathroom stall 
Southern girl with a scarlet drawl 
Wave good-bye to ma and pa ‘cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 

Soft spoken with a broken jaw 
Step outside but not to brawl 
Autumn’s sweet we call it fall 
I’ll make it to the moon if I have to crawl and 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view... 

Scar tissue that I wish you saw 
Sarcastic mister know it all 
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you ‘cause 
With the birds I’ll share 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view 
With the birds I’ll share 
This lonely view...


Otherside

Chorus: 
How long how long will I slide 
Separate my side I don’t 
I don’t believe it’s bad 
Slit my throat 
It’s all I ever 

I heard your voice through a photograph 
I thought it up it brought up the past 
Once you know you can never go back 
I’ve got to take it on the otherside 

Centuries are what it meant to me 
A cemetery where I marry the sea 
Stranger things could never change my mind 
I’ve got to take it on the otherside 
Take it on the otherside 
Take it on 
Take it on 

Chorus 

Pour my life into a paper cup 
The ashtray’s full and I’m spillin’ my guts 
She wants to know am I still a slut 
I’ve got to take it on the otherside 

Scarlet starlet and she’s in my bed 
A candidate for my soul mate bled 
Push the trigger and pull the thread 
I’ve got to take it on the otherside 
Take it on the otherside 
Take it on 
Take it on 

Chorus 

Turn me on take me for a hard ride 
Burn me out leave me on the otherside 
I yell and tell it that 
It’s not my friend 
I tear it down I tear it down 
And then it’s born again 

Chorus 

How long I don’t believe it’s bad 
Slit my throat 
It’s all I ever


Get On Top

Get on Top Get on Top 

Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me 

Go-rilla cunt-illa 
Sammy D and Salmonella 
Come with me ‘cause I’m an ass killer 
You’re ill but I’m iller 

I’ll malinger on your block and 
Give the finger to a cop and 
Pick a lock before I knock and

Chorus: 
Complications of a mastermind 
Last temptation of my kind 
Extra planetary sign 
When do we align 
All in time 
Right on 

Get up come sit up I light but she lit up 

Grass Hopper Show Stopper 
The life of a Wife Swapper 
Come with me ‘cause I’m a big bopper 
You do but I wopper 

Exterminate my cause 
You want to draw some straws 
Be the one to see my flaws 
Make me bleed with painted claws 

Chorus 

Get on Top Get on Top 

Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me 

Speed Baller Rhodes Scholar 
Bottom Bitch And a Bottom Dollar

Give the finger to a cop and 
Pick a lock before I knock on 
Set you up to get on top

Californication

Psychic spies from China 
Try to steal your mind’s elation 
Little girls from Sweden 
Dream of silver screen quotations 
And if you want these kind of dreams 
It’s Californication 

It’s the edge of the world 
And all of western civilization 
The sun may rise in the East 
At least it settles in the final location 
It’s understood that Hollywood 
sells Californication 

Pay your surgeon very well 
To break the spell of aging 
Celebrity skin is this your chin 
Or is that war your waging 

Chorus: 
First born unicorn 
Hard core soft porn 
Dream of Californication 
Dream of Californication 

Marry me girl be my fairy to the world 
Be my very own constellation 
A teenage bride with a baby inside 
Getting high on information 
And buy me a star on the boulevard 
It’s Californication 

Space may be the final frontier 
But it’s made in a Hollywood basement 
Cobain can you hear the spheres 
Singing songs off station to station 
And Alderon’s not far away 
It’s Californication 

Born and raised by those who praise 
Control of population everybody’s been there
and 
I don’t mean on vacation 

Chorus 

Destruction leads to a very rough road 
But it also breeds creation 
And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar 
They’re just another good vibration 
And tidal waves couldn’t save the world 
From Californication 

Pay your surgeon very well 
To break the spell of aging 
Sicker than the rest 
There is no test 
But this is what you’re craving 

Chorus


Easily

Easily let’s get carried away 
Easily let’s get married today 
Shao Lin shouted a rose 
From his throat 
Everything must go 
A lickin’ stick is thicker 
When you break it to show 
Everything must go 

The story of a woman on the morning of a war 
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re
fighting for 

Calling calling for something in the air 
Calling calling I know you must be there 

Easily let’s get caught in a wave 
Easily we won’t get caught in a cage 
Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake 
Of his soul - Everything must go 
Lookin’ mighty tired of 
All the things that you own 
Everything must go 

I can’t tell you who to idolize 
You think it’s almost over 
But it’s only on the rise 
Calling calling 
For something in the air 
Calling calling I know you must be there 

The story of a woman on the morning of a war 
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re
fighting for 

Throw me to the wolves because 
Because there’s order in the pack 
Throw me to the sky 
Because I know I’m coming back 

Shao Lin shakin’ for the sake 
Of his soul - Everything must go 
Lookin’ mighty tired of 
All the things that you own 
Everything must go 

The story of a woman on the morning of a war 
Remind me if you will exactly what we’re
fighting for 

Calling calling for something in the air 
Calling calling I know you must be there 

I don’t want to be your little research monkey
boy 
The creature that I am is only going to destroy 

Throw me to the wolves 
Because there’s order in the pack 
Throw me to the sky 
Because I know I’m coming back 

Easily


Porcelain

Porcelain 
Are you wasting away in your skin 
Are you missing the love of your kin 
Drifting and floating and fading away 

Porcelain 
Do you smell like a girl when you smile 
Can you bear not to share with your child 
Drifting and floating and fading away 

Little lune 
All day 
Little lune 

Porcelain 
Do you carry the moon in your womb 
Someone said that you’re fading too soon 
Drifting and floating and fading away 

Porcelain 
Are you wasting away in your skin 
Are you missing the love of your kin 
Nodding and melting and fading away 

Little lune 
All day 
Little lune...


Emit Remmus

The California animal is a bear 
Angeleno but the devil may care 
Summer time to talk and swear 
Later maybe we could share some air 
I’ll take you to the movies there 
We could walk through Leicester Square 
What could be wetter than 
An English girl American man 

Chorus: 
London in the summer time 
Call me now use the satellite 
London in the summer time 
Cuss me out and it’ll feel all right 

Hesitate but don’t refuse 
The choice was yours but you said choose 
The look she used was green and sharp 
Stabbed that boy all in his heart 
Come what may the cosmos will 
Take me up and down on Primrose Hill 
What could be wetter than 
An English girl American man 

Chorus 

Cuss me out and it’ll feel all right 
It’s all right now 
Call me now use the satellite 
It’s all right 
It’s all right 

Down and out and it’ll sound all right 
It’s all right now 
It’s all right 

The California flower is poppy child 
Felony sends me all the gold in your smile 
Drift away from anyone you can 
Nothing ever goes according to plan 
Though I know that every river bends 
Time to say hello to snow on the Thames 
What could be wetter than 
An English girl American man 

Chorus


I Like Dirt

Some come up and some come young 
Live to love and give good tongue 
Sit down get down in the sun 
Rocket to the woman is on the one 

Chorus: 
I like dirt 
I like dirt 
I like dirt 
I like dirt 

The earth is made of dirt and wood 
And I’d be water if I could 
Live in a dream 
In your stream 
Live in a dream 

Some come up and some come young 
Live to love and give good tongue 
Sit down get down in the sun 
Rocket to the woman is on the one 

Chorus 

Some come slow and overload 
Must roll over when you’re told 
Let’s unzip and let’s unfold 
A letter to the pet better get it to go 

Chorus 

Space is made of everything 
And I’d be fire that I bring 
Live in a dream 
In your spring 
Live in a dream 

Some come slow and overload 
Must roll over when you’re told 
Let’s unzip and let’s unfold 
A letter to the pet better get it to go 

Chorus 

Some come up and some come young 
Live to love and give good tongue 
Sit down get down in the sun 
Rocket to the woman is on the one 

Chorus 

Some come up and some come young 
Live to love and give good tongue 
Sit down get down in the sun 
Rocket to the woman is on the one


This Velvet Glove

Close to my skin 
I’m falling in 
Someone who’s been 

Sittin’ by the phone 
I’m left alone 
In another zone 

John says to live above hell 
My will is well 

No one is waiting 
For me to fail 
My will could sail yeah 

It’s such a waste to be wasted 
In the first place 
I want to taste the taste of 
Being face to face with common grace 
To meditate on the warmest dream 
And when I walk alone I listen 
To our secret theme 

Your solar eyes are like 
Nothing I have ever seen 
Somebody close 
That can see right through 
I’d take a fall and you know 
That I’d do anything 
I will for you 

Sailin’ for the sun 
‘Cause There is one 
Knows where I’m from 

I care for you 
I really do I really do 

Come closer now 
So you can lie 
Right by my side 

Sit alone in the sun 
I wrote a letter to you 
Getting over myself 

Your solar eyes are like 
Nothing I have ever seen 
Somebody close 
That can see right through 
I’d take a fall and you know 
That I’d do anything 
I will for you 

Your solar eyes are like 
Nothing I have ever seen 
Somebody close 
That was made for you 
I’d take a fall and you know 
That I’d do anything 
I will for you 

Close to my skin 
Someone who’s been 
I’m a falling in 

Disasters are 
Just another star 
Falling in my yard 

John says to live above hell 
My will is well 

Long to be with 
Someone to tell 
I love your smell


Savior

Dusting off your savior 
You were always my favorite 
Always my man - All in a hand 

To celebrate you is greater 
Now that I can - Always my man 

Now you see what I came for 
No one here is to blame for 
Misunderstand - All in a hand 

Just like you ‘cause you made me 
All that I am - All in a hand 

A butterfly that flaps its wings 
Affecting almost everything 
The more I hear the orchestra 
The more I have something to bring 
And now I see you in a beautiful 
And different light 
He’s just a man and any damage done 
Will be all right 
Call out my name 
Call and I came 

Dusting off your savior 
Forgiving any behavior 
He’s just a man - All in a hand 

Your hero’s destined to waver 
Anyone can - Always my man 

I would never betray you 
Look at me who could raise you 
Face in the sand - Safe in your hand 

You were always my favorite 
Always my man - All in a hand 

We are the red hots and 
We’re loving up the love me nots 
The flowers in your flower pots 
Are dancing on the table tops 
And now I see you in a beautiful 
And different light 
He’s just a man and everything he does 
Will be all right 
Call out my name 
Call and I came 

Dusting off your savior 
The life that you have narrated 
You were my man


Purple Stain

To finger paint is not a sin 
I put my middle finger in 
Your monthly blood is what I win 
I’m in your house now let me spin 

Python power straight from Monty 
Celluloid loves got a John Frusciante 
Spread your head and spread the blanket 
She’s too free and I’m the patient 

Black and white a red and blue 
Things that look good on you 
And if I scream don’t let me go 
A purple stain - I know 

Knock on wood we all stay good 
‘Cause we all live in Hollywood 
With Dracula and Darla Hood 
Unspoken words were understood 

Up to my ass in alligators 
Let’s get it on with the alligator haters 
Did what you did – did what you said 
What’s the point yo what’s the spread 

Black and white a red and blue 
Things that look good on you 
And if I scream don’t let me go 
A purple stain – I know 
And if I call for you to stay 
Come hit the funk on your way 
It’s way out there but I don’t care 
‘Cause this is where – I go 

Knock on wood we all stay good 
‘Cause we all live in Hollywood 
With Dracula and Darla Hood 
Unspoken words were understood 

It’s way out there 
But I don’t care 
‘Cause this is what 
I want to wear 

Knock on wood we all stay good 
‘Cause we all live in Hollywood 

To finger paint is not a sin 
I put my middle finger in 
Your monthly blood is what I win 
I’m in your house now let me spin 

Feather light but you can’t move this 
Farley is an angel and I can prove this 
Purple is a stain upon my pillow 
Let’s Sleep weeping willow 

Black and white a red and blue 
Things that look good on you 
And if I scream don’t let me go 
A purple stain - I know 
And if I call for you to stay 
Come hit the funk on your way 
It’s way out there but I don’t care 
‘Cause this is where – I go 

Knock on wood we all stay good 
‘Cause we all live in Hollywood 
With Dracula and Darla Hood 
Unspoken words were understood 

It’s way out there 
But I don’t care 
‘Cause this is what 
I want to wear 

Knock on wood we all stay good 
‘Cause we all live in Hollywood


Right On Time

One shot all I need 
I’ve got rhythm when I bleed 

‘Til death do us part 
Break my heart so I can start 

Supercalifragilistic 
Kiss me in the futuristic 
Twisted but I must insist 
It’s time to get on top of this 

Chorus: 
It’s right on time 
It’s right on time 
It’s right on time 
It’s right on time it’s right on time it’s right on

Lookin’ fine you’re lookin’ fine get on 1999 
It’s right on time 

Discard to bombard 
Calling all you shooting stars 

Holy cow bow wow wow 
Now I’m here I’m nowhere now 

Joan of Arc reincarnated 
Maybe we could be related 
So much blood to circulate 
And so much space to decorate 
Chorus 

Plain and simple pain 
I want to but I can’t complain 

Death row let us go 
It’s time to blow up for the show 

All the world reverberated 
Coming through we motorcaded 
Vibrate when we operated 
Turning up in solid stated 

Oh Lord


Road Trippin’

Road trippin’ with my two favorite allies 
Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies 
It’s time to leave this town 
It’s time to steal away 
Let’s go get lost 
Anywhere in the U.S.A. 

Let’s go get lost 
Let’s go get lost 

Chorus: 
Blue you sit so pretty 
West of the one 
Sparkles light with yellow icing 
Just a mirror for the sun 
Just a mirror for the sun 
Just a mirror for the sun 

These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for 

So much as come before those battles lost and
won 
This life is shining more forever in the sun 
Now let us check our heads 
And let us check the surf 
Staying high and dry’s 
More trouble than it’s worth 
In the sun 

Just a mirror for the sun 
Just a mirror for the sun 
Just a mirror for the sun 

These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for 

In Big Sur we take some time to linger on 
We three hunky dory’s got our snakefinger on 
Now let us drink the stars 
It’s time to steal away 
Let’s go get lost 
Right here in the U.S.A 

Chorus 

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for 
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for 
Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for
