Jailbait    (Crespo/Tyler, 4:38)

Take me, take me...
Take it or a-leave it on a Saturday night
And what you see is what you get so give me a bite
Here are lots of ladies, they are so insecure
Leave it to the boys and the fool is on the hill

Hello baby, yeah it's me
There'll be no judge, no third degree no Jailbait
Play the fool and you play the punk
Wake up babe, I'm a-don't know Jailbait

I believe in someone talkin'
Can't let go you don't get hold no Jailbait
What it is, but you believe it
What you got, got up the sleeve and Jailbait

Oh, J-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, J-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, J-j-j-j-Jailbait

Take it, leave it, roll the dice
You're hard as hell, I'm cold as ice no Jailbait
Tell your daddy how you do me
Put the woodcheck, do it to me Jailbait
What you see in daddy's eyes
Check the boys, no surprise no Jailbait

Oh, j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-Jailbait

Do me, do you, tell me what you see in me too
Do me, do you

I ain't complainin' the Bitch's Brew
There's a lover who never knew she's Jailbait
Steep the chase, call the sweat
You steep the feet, oh gracer bed, oh Jailbait

Oh, j-j-j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-Jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-j-Jailbait
J-j-j-j-j-j-j
Oh, J-j-j-j-Jailbait



Lightning Strikes    (Supa, 4:26)

Boys, it looks, are ready to rumble
The word on the street some heads are gonna tumble
Blades gonna flash when streets gang clash
In the avenue tonight
When the lightning strikes

Zip gun Johnny's finger is itchin'
The lid's gonna blow up in hell's kitchen
It's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth

It's so ruthless when they fight
When the lightning strikes
And it's free for all in the parking lot
And who'll rule the street

And the night explodes
When the cops bring down the heat
And the chains they crash like thunder
While the weak ones all retreat

Gotta draw first blood
Or they'll read you your funeral rights
When the lightning strikes
It's dog eat dog when you meet your rival
And the combat zone it's your means of survival

Gonna get last licks on a suicidal blitz
With a broken dagger knife
When the lightning strikes
And it's free for all in the parking lot
And who'll rule the street

And the night explodes
When the cops bring down the heat
And the chains they crash like thunder
While the weak ones all retreat
Gotta draw first blood
Or they'll read you your funeral rights

Oh, oh...
When the lightning strikes
When the lightning strikes
When the lightning strikes
Lightning and thunder
When the lightning strikes...



Bitch's Brew    (Crespo/Tyler, 4:14)

I tell ya kinky
You foxy little flirt
I caught you in the biar path
Liftin' up your skirt
Well let me tell ya
What you been doin' in the Firepatch
What you been doin' with your little skirt
Got...

You've been foolin' with the bitch's brew
You know the things I told you not to do
You fell into the briar patch
Ain't nothing gonna save your ass

Remember the things you said
The saving and the screams for bread
And now you just walked away
So take it away, all the way

You're fooling with the bitch's brew
That ain't the thing you ought to fool with
Now you keep your fingers out of there, honey
You know that isn't there

The way that you really feel
Down the parts on the way you deal
Where the witch is sight
And the things that you fight
(Oh God)

You've been messin' with the bitch's brew
Now don't you know who you're talking to
Say you're talking to the bitch's who
Tell me you never cared

The Voodoo man eyes of fire
The Hoodoo man most desire
The Bitches are out 'n' smooth
Tell me from the light of the moon

(Yodle-lay-lay-lay, yeah, yeah, yeah, come on)

I've been thinkin'
Had my hands through the sense of time
Yeah, and I've been drinkin'
Just to make this here song rhyme

You're foolin' with the bitch's brew
Now don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you...
Don't go foolin' with the bitch's brew...



Bolivian Ragamuffin    (Crespo/Tyler, 3:32)

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
You gotta dance to the tune of Bolivian Ragamuffin
Out take's short breaks
Love her till the earth quakes

Stand on the seashore lookin' at the city
See the street light, dog bite your lady on the titty
At the wax museum everybody cares to see themselves
As others care to see you but nobody wants to be you baby

Corn bread, cabbage head
Try and get a side of me
Hold my pickle, hold your lettuce
Special orders don't upset me

Kickstand face, looks so evil like Knieval
Never make third base like a tongue in my old lady
Like a squatez vous and a domo arigato
Tip my hat to you rock a roller obbligato

Stage show come in stride, smoke a bone I'm feelin' fine
Girls in heat will try and get us
Hash in bones won't upset us

He need cash... Kick in the pants
Wantin' for... Gotta dance
Say it ahh... To you to give us the chance

Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it



Cry Me a River    (Hamilton, 4:06)

Now you say you're lonely
You cried the whole night through
Well you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me in and drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all that you said
You told me love was to come in
This moment you was, you were... you were

Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over...
(yah yah, yeah, yah yah, yeah...)



Prelude to Joanie    (Tyler, 1:21)

At first we three thought
'Twas the biblical cord of life
The noticing 'twas connected to his head
How strange, not to be believed
I reached out to feel and the pony's eyes opened
The cord got hard, the head looked around
And you know who pushed and gushed
The waters of life
First two hooved feet, then the shine of his fur
But at first to my eyes only
Feather feathers wings
The butterflies flew up in such colors
Exploding all around us
The rest I did not notice till there he stood
All eyes in wonder
Who me
Who you
Look



Joanie's Butterfly    (Crespo/D/T, 5:35)

[No Lyrics]



Rock in a Hard Place (Cheshire Cat)    (Crespo/D/T, 4:46)

It was a take it or a leave it
Kinda Saturday night
I wish I could love you till the cows come home
If the make is right
If it's a make believe I said it ain't
And tell you then
'Cause if it's a dream I'm in the please wake me up
And smile again

Oooh, close your eyes and what do you see
Oooh, look what in hell they did with your only belief

She was a real top manner
Lies and no conniver
Heart pumpin' floozy
Late night driver
Her second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat

Said it was in and out and up and down the urchin moon
Only a certain situation on the sea I'm who
Putting the ring around the rose 'n' pull the daisy chain
Cover your head and tell me you ain't from there and back again

Oooh, close your eyes and what do you see
Oooh, nothing but how you will lie with your only belief in me

She was a real top manner
Lies and no conniver
Heart pumpin' floozy
Late night driver
Her second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat

Give a good one I want to be or not to be tonight
Why should I hold her down in bed when you should ride me right
Want you to give it all you got, no need to make amends
Cover your little mouth come up for air
I got the bends
Oooh, close your eyes and what do you see
Oooh, nothing but how you will live with your only belief in me

She was a real top manner
Lies and no conniver
Heart pumpin' floozy
Late night driver
Her second hand clothes
Smiling like a cheshire cat



Jig is Up    (Crespo/Tyler, 3:10)

Yeah, hey hey, hey hey...

Dancing queen, sold like black vaseline
She was a long tall Sally joystick

Push Comes to Shove    (Tyler, 4:28)

(Chorus)
Can you be in love
When you live alone
Push comes to shove
When you're bitchin' on

Now look at every
I'm toned on you without a doubt
Said the music does the talkin'
But all we heard is talk about

The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And the toys, yeah

Rose said she was fine for two
With blonde hair, by crack it
Miles of blue
Sooge, she was on my side
'Cause she and Nancy
Ah they took me for a ride

The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And they do, yeah the toys

Talk about itt
Walk about it
Talk about it
Talkabubi
Talk about it...
Talk about it...
Dedumdudidudi

(Chorus)

She looked, well, about 35 to me
When mine was still comin' on to you
But I was covered back, back then
'Cause me and the boys
Knew hot courier

The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And the toys in the attic

Her sister, she was lank a fin
Never thought I'd give in
Her candle of youth was burnin' low
But me and the boys
Knew something had to go

The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
Dededudidudu...

Talk about it
Walk about it
Talk about it
Talkabubi
Talk about it
Talk about it...
Dedumdudidudi

(Chorus x2)

Huh!

(Repeat Chorus)
