      TRUE MEN DON'T KILL COYOTES


      Hoo, Lord !



      Well, I'm gonna ride a sabertooth horse

      Through the Hollywood hills

      The farther west, the farther out

      Yeah, that's the way I feel

      Well, I dig the dirt an' I dig the dust

      I barbecue my meals

      Through the Hollywood hills, yeah...

      Huh, Hollywood hills



      Well, I'm gonna ride a sabertooth horse

      Just don't show me anything

      'cos that's the way I feel

      Well, I dig the dirt an' I dig the dust

      I barbecue my meals



      Ridin' wild on a paisley dragon

      Through the Hollywood hills, yeah...

      Huh, Hollywood hills



      Passion dripping from the coyote's eyes

      He can taste his blood

      An' blood never lies

      Pale face die

      True men don't kill coyotes

      WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME



      Why don't you love me like you used to do?

      How come you treat me like a worn out shue

      My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue

      So why don't you love me like you used to do?



      Why don't you spot me like you used to do?

      When you whisper sweet nothings like you used to do

      I'm the same old trouble that you've always been through

      So why don't you love me like you used to do?



      Why don't you be the way you used to be?

      How come you fight so many fights with me

      Somebody changed, so lemme give you a clue

      Why don't you love me like you used to do?



      Why don't you say the things you used to say?

      How come you treat me like a piece of clay

      My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue

      So why don't you love me like you used to do?



      You can't keep a lovin' and a huggin' and a kissin' and I don't know why...

      We don't get near or further closer land of country mouths



      I don't love like a huggin' and a kissin' and I don't know why...

      We don't get near or further closer land of country mouths

      Take the ball...

      GREEN HEAVEN



      About this planet, there is something I know

      There's a very big difference between above and below

      A friend foe, or bro, leave your body on the floor

      Let your spirit fly away like the soul of a crow



      Here, above land, man has laid his plan

      And yes, it does include the Ku Klux Klan

      We got a government so twisted and bent

      Bombs, tanks and guns is how our money is spent

      We got V.D., heroin, greed and prostitution

      Tension, aggravation, L. Ron Hubbard solution

      Not to mention hard-core chemical pollution

      If you think you're just away, you're in a mental institution

      And that's a heart felt shame

      'Cos everyone's crazy, everyone's the same

      So, why should only Larry, Curly and Moe be to blame?



      Time now to take you to a different place

      Where peace lovin' whales flow through liquid outer space

      A groovin' and a gliddin' as graceful as lace

      A never losing touch with the ocean's embrace

      Diviner than the dolphin, that there is none

      'Cause dolphins just-a like to have a lot of fun

      No one tells 'em how their life is run

      And no one points at them with a gun

      They have a lot of love for every living creature

      The smile of a dolphin is a built in feature

      They be movin' in schools but everyone's the teacher

      Someday mister dolphin, I know I'm go'n to meet you



      Back to the land of the police man

      Where he does whatever he says he can

      Including hating you because you're a Jew

      Or beating black ass, that's nothing new

      Trigger happy cops, they just like to brawl

      They use guns, clubs, gas, but that's not all

      They got puke, ridden prisons and sex sick jails

      Fuck the poor, if you're rich you pay the bail

      So support your police, support your local wars

      That's the way to open economic doors

      Why do we do it? 'Cause the president's a whore

      We assume the position to sell the ammunition

      What the fuck? It's the american tradition

      Along with going fishin' apple pies in the kitchen

      Isn't it bitchin' seeing dead men in ditches?





      MOMMY WHERE'S DADDY


      Mommy, where's daddy?

      Mommy, where's daddy?



      Right here, girl...

      Sweet thing, you look so sad

      Cheer up, don't you know your dad is bad

      Give daddy a kiss, girl

      Oh, dad



      There ain't no problem I can't face, 'cos

      Your daddy's got a bigger bag of tricks

      Give daddy a kiss, girl

      Oh, dad



      Mommy, where's daddy?

      Mommy, where's daddy?



      Come on, sit on your daddy's lap 'cos

      I'm the one who pats your back

      Give daddy a kiss, girl

      Oh, dad



      Lemme see now where to begin

      Lemme start by tuckin' you in

      Give daddy a kiss, girl

      Oh, dad



      Mommy, where's daddy?



      OUT IN L.A.



      We're all a bunch of brothers livin' in a cool way

      Along with six million others in this place called L.A.



      L.A. is the place, sets my mind ablaze

      For me, it's a race through a cotton pickin' maze



      The town makes me jump, it's got a bunch of bad chicks

      Well sure, it's got some chumps but I still get my kicks

      My body loves to scrump when I lick the ripe pick

      Like a come on a thumb

      Poppin' hump, hump, hump, pop out



      The action never stops, I'm as wild as can be

      'Cos I'm shooting for the top and my best friend is Flea

      Oom Chucka Willy knew the balls to pop

      But he never met the Tree so he never be-bopped out hop!



      Antwan the Swan, from the pretty fish pond

      Was a bad mother jumper, you could tell he was strong

      He war a cold paisley jacket and a hellified hat

      And between his legs was a sweat young lass



      He threw a hundred women up against the wall

      And he swore to fear that he'd love 'em all

      By the time he got to ninety nine, he had to stop

      Because that's when he thought that he heard a phone



      Last night and the night before, I heard a

      Fop outside, then I came in doors

      Freak out!



      Now that I told you a little something about the Flea

      A little something about the Tree, a little something about me

      I can't leave you hangin' but my man Shermzy, he swings the yang, he bangs the yang

      And now, it's time to hear him do his playin', you better be burning Sherman!



      We're all a bunch of brothers livin' in a cool way

      Along with six million others in this place called L.A.



      Step out!



      POLICE HELICOPTER



      Aw!


      Police helicopter shot the sky

      Police helicopter landin' on my eye

      Police helicopter, he ain't shy



      Yeah!
