I am going to be adding lyrics to Linda Perry songs as soon as I transcribe them. Please note that these are not the "official" lyrics, I wrote them down as I heard them, so there might be some mistakes. Feel free to write and point any out. Okay, I transcribed the rest of the lyrics, but forgot to bring the disk to put them on. They should be up in the next couple of days. The second half of the album might have more mistakes then the first, because for some reason it is harder to understand.
IN MY DREAMS
In my dreams
Everythingıs worthwhile
In my dreams
I ran a thousand miles
And everybody worshipped me
In my dreams
Hate men just to smile
And the pain never bothered me
I want everything
Everything I want
Thereıs no room to turn me upside down
In my dreams
I built my own empire
With no color and no creed
In my dreams
Iım like a bird in flight
Am I getting much too deep
I want everything
Everything I want
Thereıs no room to turn me upside down
I want everything
Everything I want
Yeah-hah
Thereıs no time to turn me upside down
I want everything
Everything I want
Thereıs no room to turn me upside down
I want everything
Everything I want
Yeah-hah
Thereıs no room to turn me upside down
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh-ho-ho ya oh oh oh
A-ha
Thereıs no room to turn me upside down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
Oh-ho-ho ya oh oh oh
A-ha
In my dreams
I ran a thousand miles
And everybody worshipped me
FREEWAY
Can you see me inn the garden
watering flowers all night long
Taking care of what you neglected
And I do it with a happy sound
Can you feel your guardian angel
Guiding you so patiently
And you wonder if youıre in heaven
Cause you move so gracefully
Welcome tomorrow
Will we flow as gently
Didnıt we know didnıt we feel it
How time just seems to stop outside our window
And we laugh down the freeway
Hoping to express our religion there
To be free of everything
With my friends sitting round drinkin
Talkin about how life is much too long
How some days everythingıs so right
And the next day everything just seems so wrong
Yeah yeah
Laughinı while complaininı while we weıre having a good time
It really didnıt matter
And come tomorrow will we float as gently
At two oı clock in the morning
The lights go on itıs time for us to go
And the last thing I can remember
Is an angel guiding us right through the door
Yeah yeah
Laughinı while complaininı but havin a good time
It really didnıt matter
It really doesnıt matter
And come tomorrow
Will we float as gently
Didnıt we know didnıt we feel it
How time just seemed to stop outside our window
And we ran down the freeway
Hoping to express our religion there
Didnıt we know, didnıt we feel it
How time just seemed to stop outside our window
And we learn down the freeway
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh woah yeah yeah yeah
Didnıt we know, didnıt we feel it
How time just seemed to stop outside our window
and we ran down the freeway
hoping to express our religion there
to be free of everything
of everything yeah
Oh, umhoo
UNINVITED
Can you hear me
Iıve got a lot of things to tell you
inside my heart Iım feeling somethingıs wrong with me
and I know I know Iım getting in trouble
but for now I guess Iıll go along my way
Are you ready? ready for it all
And maybe Iım not ready, cause maybe I canıt see
that I believe in Jesus, does Jesus believe in me?
can you touch me cause Iım feeling very empty
inside my head the worst goes round and round
but I know, I know my day is coming
but for know, I got a long way to go
Are you ready? Ready for it all
And maybe Iım not ready
Cause maybe I canıt see
that I believe in Jesus, does Jesus believe in me?
You seem so cold, you seem so uninvited
I guess you know everything that youıre doing
Can you believe everything that Iım saying
I donıt know, I donıt know, I donıtı know what you see in me
Un-uh, Un-uh, Un-uh, Un-uh...
Yeah
Are you ready? Ready for it all
But I donıt think Iım ready
cause I donıt think I see
That I believe in Jesus does Jesus believe in me
SUCCESS
This is not the way
Itıs supposed to be
Spend my days in fear of all
It sets me free
I beg your pardon
For what I do and say
I can hold myself to blame
But the show remains the same
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want
Is it what I need?
Hey mom hey dad
Your story went
Ride the burnin' wheels of faith
It pays the rent
Hey sister hey brother
I had to choose
Choose between the win and lose
but whatıs the use?
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want
Is it what I need?
Come march come April
come may and June
let the pounding serpents go
Thereıs nothing I can know
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want
Is it what I need?
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want
Is it what I need?
I s there something I can do?
LIFE IN A BOTTLE
Life in a bottle
Feels so comforting
Seems like thatıs my destiny
Fate, what you want, select a memory
Black me out and set me free
Meet my friend held tightly in my hand
forgetting what I mean to say
Love what you hate is just the way it goes
Inch by inch I sink below
and I love I love I love
all my bad company
I know I know I know
thatıs whatıs meant to be
I love I love I love
all my bad company
So thereıs nothing left for me to say
no thereıs nothing left for me to say
Stoned and demented walking through the walls
When I bang my head I slowly fell
sad but delighted swimming in my well
I guess Iım going straight to hell
and I love I love I love
all my bad company
I know I know I know
thatıs whatıs meant to be
and I love I love I love
all my bad company
so thereıs nothing left for me to say
no thereıs nothing left for me to say
and I love I love I love
all my bad company
and I know I know I know
thatıs whatıs meant to be
and I love I love I love
all my bad company
so thereıs nothing left for me to say
no thereıs nothing left for me to say
FILL ME UP
Wake me up when
the partyıs over

and please remember to remind me

from your mouth into my mind
cause I grow weary from this trip Iım on
and the ride keeps getting longer
and in the morning Iıll be hungover
with my face into the phone
and please forgive me

by the way howıd I get home
was I laughing or was I choking
and did I start to annoy you
was I sleazy or was I dazzling
did I even say good-bye
fill me up letıs take a ride
from your mouth into my mind
cause I grow weary from this trip Iım on
and the ride keeps getting longer
Fill me up letıs take a ride
from your mouth into my mind
I grow weary from this trip Iım on
and the ride keeps getting longer
fill me up letıs take a ride
from your mouth into my mind
cause I grow weary from this trip Iım on
and the ride keeps getting longer
so wake me up when
the parties over it seems Iıve had too much wine
