Doin' Time (uptown dub)
Evil, I've come to tell you that she's evil, un-definately, evil, ornery,
scandalous and evil, definately. The tension, is getting hotter, I'd
like to hold her, head underwater, ohoh, as the livin's easy, on the microphone
with ras m.g. In the dance it's agreed that we'll well
qualify to represent the LBC. (((microphone control... da da-da-da-da da...)))
Get Out! (remix)
[It's 8:05. This is Phyllis in the office. The Cat is out on the patio,
if it jumps one more time, your butts are in the street. I am sick and
tired of your activities, your cat, and your untruths with me. I'm gonna
call you tomorrow, when you're home, and you can
explain some things to me 'cuz I'm tired of your bullsh*t. Goodnight.]
My place is not a home, it don't make no difference but I have
found,that I need a place to stay.I never listen what the landlord man
say. You should've seen the flops in my house.We were
jumping on walls and kicking ceilings.Now a days people listen to me, when
I say.."GET OUT!" [they're driving me f*cking crazy
over here chief, I gotta get rid of these fruitcakes.] Hold me and
don't let go.It don't make no difference that your a ho. Cause I need
a place to stay. A new disease was just the price I paid.In days of old
that how it used to be, oh yes indeed.That girl is dead to me
now and I say ....<<>>So let the lovin take a hold over me,Let the
lovin take a hold over me.(Long Beach Possie) Cause all I see is
your fussin' and fightin'1992 so lets all start uniting.Put your hands
together be the best you can be,Let this jam take us to 1993.Stay
positive and the love will come back to me.But some jealous punk, snuck
up around the back,tried to take the lovin' over me.Oh, I
got into a fist fight and wound up in jail all night.
Romeo
I have a secret place inside my mind,
where I keep hidden inspiration you will find.
And when my petty anger goes to my head,
you'll find I'm better off dead.
Oh, and I don't hold the key,
to find out what is killing me, its,
been so long but somehow i just still care,
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo, with no place to go
Sometimes I think you hate me, hang up the phone,
but take a closer look, this hate I feel is my own.
So many times I've loved you, more than myself,
it's time to take that love and put it on the shelf.
Oh, and when I hold you tight,
it makes me want to scream and fight.
Love turned to hate,
some how it's just, how it's just,
how it's just to late.
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo with no place to go
Rock the reggae music, cuz it sounds so fine, right!
When I hold you tight, in my arms you are mine,
but in the morning when I wake up and I still feel the same,
I know something goin on and I know who's to blame.
Everytime I tell you I'm the real Romeo,
it fills my soul and heart with anger, pain, and sorrow.
Cuz' somthings going on and I think you should know,
so listen to my rhyme, cuz this is how it goes:
In a tight mini short in a short mini skirt,
it feels so wrong and it feels so right.
the more I think about it your a pain in the ass,
I told you many times, this time it's gonna last.
Want the kind of woman who can make me feel right,
not sloppy drunk sex on a Saturday night. cuz,
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo with no place to go
Pull up your honey if you gotta one see,
because your down with the style, cuz your down with me. oh,
rig the selector when your on the mixer,
along with Peter Mitchell upon the echo chamber. Two, one,
no they must see but no, they can't test me.
Two, three of them come and say you cant test me.
Because me rock the reggae music in a different stylee.
Me rock the kinda reggae music right on time, because your down with the
band that they call Sublime, right?
Don't take it too slow, don't take me wrong,
me know which way to go, me, me, me alright,
me rock the reggae music day and all night.
Makes you wanna explode,
makes me wanna explode,
makes me wanna explode,
makes you wanna explode,
sometimes it makes you wanna explode.
New Realization
The time has come, to reach a new realization 'tween me and you, time to
clear the rumors, sensations, and things that just are
untrue.Well I thought I heard you behind me, with a knife stright for my
back.It's quite clear that I'm back in the swing of living,
although I might not be on the right track.Oh, thought I might drown but
its hard to be givin'. Downtown's wheres you'll find me, do
some and got a hand. Although I never listen girl, I damn well understand.
And you think, I'm so damn feeble. I can't see through
your lies, you'r just a crock of shit, with a pretty smile, and I refuse
to compromise. Oh, don't give me such a heavy, heavy, heavy
load. You may hold some vision of truth, if truth can found in a lie. Maybe
some grain of inspiration, for song thats deep inside. Oh,
tears running down your face, just screaming look me in the eye. Well I'm
looking straight at your twisted face, and it's enough to
make me cry.Oh, I payed the price of loving you, in more ways than one.
Wrapped around your finger, but I think my time has
come,but I never can be too sure, cuz I like to have a little fun.Oh, what
fun it would be to blow my mind and fall into the sun. A
mind is a precious thing to taste.
Don't Push
Stolen from an Africa land, and chased out with a knife.With a face like
Bob Marley, and a mouth like a motor bike Oh well the
bars are always open, and the time is always right.And if God's good word
goes unspoken, the music goes all night And it goes...If i
was Bob Marley I said could you be loved? and if I was half pint I'd my
Lord up above If I was Mike Tyson I'd look for a fight If I was a
Boomtown Rat I would be stayin up all nigh tIF I was the King Ad-Rock i
would get stupid dumb If rythmes were valiums I'd be
comfortably numb If I had a shotgun, know what I'd do?, I'd point it straight
up at the sky,and shoot heaven on down for you. Because
the bars are always open, and the time is always right. And if God's good
word goes unspoken, the music goes all night.And it goes: I
want a lover, I can't find the time. I want a reason, I can't find the
rythme.I want to start some static, but I can't afford,to hit the
ground like I fell off my skateboard, hey. Now a days as clear as you please,
get strapped with protection or struck with
disease (disease). Laughter, it's free, any time just, call me.438-4836
'cuz your down with Sublime you get funky fresh lyrics, you get nuff lyrics.
Stolen from an Africa land, I'll chase that other bar. And Ice is my best
friend tonight so don't push me too far. I gonna run come
down with the new lyrics,get hit, get hip, don't slip you knuckle heads.Racism
is schism on a serious tip.You don't believe me I go and
bust your lip. Hey.I hear the mountain, it hard to climb. Rougher the rhythm,
then it must be Sublime.Listen Bud Gaugh yea he's right on
time.Come listen Eric Wilson drop the funky bassline. Bass........Mmmmm.........Come
in Bud. Lord have his grilled cheese.This the
kinda rythem make you wanna explode.Not like doin' coke and shooting, not
like taking a load.Beacause I'm one stylee, stand
rough and rugged.I keep my body strong, clean and ....People wanna come
up and they want tell me smokin crack cocaine better
than sensi Somthing sumthing sumthin.....
Slow Ride
She takes her time when it's time to get ready.Always has her way.Always
leaves me waiting by the phone.She told me more than
once to take it slow,and I said OK.But lately i've been sleeping all alone.I'm
not breaking up inside, I'm much to proud to
moan.Baby please come home.I feel a little lucky so I try to play it cool.I
think she laughs inside.With the words that burn like fire in
my mouth. Try to be a man like i got the master plan, night out on the
town.Drink and dance and we can turn it out.Whoa, Maybe
it's how your body moves I just don't know,Maybe it's just the way you
move so slow.(Phone Dialing)[Hello?][Hi it's me][I thought
I told you not to call me here][I know I just really needed to talk to
you][Get a clue babe, there's nothing to talk about.](Click!)Ask
me why I play myself play myself for a fool.Swear I would do most anything.Walk
a mile to see her smile.Walk a mile just to rock
for a while.Babe I'm thinking with my ding-a-ling.Whoa, I've been doing
some thinking,now I just don't know.Maybe just the way
you move so slow.Maybe cuz you move so slow.Maybe cuz you move so slow.
But sitting on the verge of tears does not become
my 22 years.You took my shame, and you took my pride,and now you gonna
take me for a slow ride.but uh, uh. Waiting, waiting
on the phone.Got the words that burn like fire in my mouth.Come on down
reggae style,wind up your body like a bass line
wild,drink and dance and we can turn it out.Whooooaaaa, I'm not going crazy
but I just dont know,Maybe cuz you move so slow.
(x3)Like love,move nice and low.Slowride! (x3)
