Lyrics From Toys In The Attic

Toys In The Attic

   (Tyler, Kramer) 

   In the attic
   Lights
   Voices scream
   Nothin' seen
   Real's the dream

   Leaving the things that are real behind
   Leaving the things that you love from mind
   All of the things that you learned from fears
   Nothin' is left for the years
   Voices scream
   Nothin' seen
   Real's the dream

   Chorus:
      Toys, toys, toys
      In the attic
      Toys, toys, toys
      In the attic
      Toys, toys, toys
      In the attic
      Toys, toys, toys
      In the attic

   Lights
   Voices scream
   Nothin' seen
   Real's the dream

   Leaving the things that are real behind
   Leaving the things that you love from mind
   All of the things that you learned from fears
   Nothin' is left for the years
   Voices scream
   Nothin' seen
   Real's the dream

   Chorus

   Chorus

Uncle Salty

   (Tyler, Hamilton)

   Uncle Salty told me stories of a lonely
   Baby with a lonely kind of life to lead
   My mammy was lusted, Daddy he was busted
   They left her to be trusted till the orphan bleeds
   But when she cried at night, no one came
   And when she cried at night, went insane

   Uncle Salty told me when she was just a baby
   That she'd get by and maybe someday she'd see
   But soon she found her mother's love for all the others
   The pushers and the shovers was the life to lead
   But when she cried at night, no one came
   And when she cried at night, went insane

   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, oh yeah
   Ooh, oh yeah

   Now she's doin any for money and a penny
   A sailor with a penny or two or three
   Hers is the cunning for men who come a runnin'
   They all come for fun and it seems to me
   That when she cried at night, no one came
   And when she cried at night, went insane

   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
   Ooh, it's a sunny day outside my window...

Adam's Apple

   (Tyler)

   Back when Cain was able
   Way before the stable
   Lighting struck right down from the sky
   A mother ship with fate said let's give it a try
   Conscience was related
   Man it was created
   Lady luck took him by surprise
   A sweet and bitter fruit
   It surely opened his eyes
   
   Well she ate it
   Lordy it was love at first bite
   Well she ate it
   Never knowin' wrong from right, right, right, right

   Even Eve in Eden
   Voices tried deceiving
   With lies that showed the lady the way
   At first she stopped and turned and tried to walk away
   Man it was believer
   Lady was deceiver
   So the story goes but you see
   That snake was he and
   She just climbed right up his tree

   Conscience was related
   Man it was created
   Lady luck took him by surprise
   A sweet and bitter fruit
   It surely opened his eyes
   Evil came like rainin'
   Who knows who's to blamin'
   Something tried to lay her to waste
   And all she want to need was just a little taste

   Well she ate it
   Lordy it was love at first bite
   Yeah she ate it
   Never knowin' wrong from right, right, right, right
   Well she ate it
   Lordy it was love at first bite
   Yeah she ate it
   Never knowin' wrong from right, right
   Well that's right

Walk This Way

   (Tyler, Perry)

   Backstroke lover always hidin' 'neath the covers
   Till I talked to your daddy, he say
   He said you ain't seen nothin' till you're down on a muffin
   Then you're sure to be a changin' your ways
   I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder
   Oh, the times I could reminisce
   'Cause the best things of lovin' with her sister and her
      cousin only started with a little kiss, like this

   Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
   And your feet flyin' up in the air
   Singin' hey diddle diddle
   With your kitty in the middle of the swing
   Like you didn't care
   So I took a big chance at the high school dance
   With a missy who was ready to play
   Wasn't me she was foolin'
   'Cause she knew what she was doin'
   And I knowed love was here to stay
   When she told me to

   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Just gimme a kiss
   Like this

   Schoolgirl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
   Little skirt's climbin' way up the knee
   There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
   When I noticed they was lookin' at me
   I was a high school loser, never made it with a lady
   Till the boys told me somethin' I missed
   Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
   So I gave her just a little kiss
   Like this

   Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
   And your feet flyin' up in the air
   Singin' hey diddle diddle
   With your kitty in the middle of the swing
   Like you didn't care
   So I took a big chance at the high school dance
   With a missy who was ready to play
   Wasn't me she was foolin'
   'Cause she knew what she was doin'
   When she told me how to walk this way
   She told me to

   Walk this way
   Talk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Walk this way
   Talk this way
   Just gimme a kiss
   Like this

Big Ten Inch Record

   (F. Weismantel)

   Got me the strangest woman
   Believe me this trick's no cinch
   But I really get her going
   When I whip out my big ten inch

   Record of a band that plays the blues
   Well a band that plays its blues
   She just love my big ten inch
   Record of her favorite blues

   Last night I tried to tease her
   I gave my love a little pinch
   She said now stop that jivin'
   Now whip out your big ten inch

   Record of a band that plays the blues
   Well a band that plays the blues
   She just loves my big ten inch
   Record of her favorite blues

   I, I, I cover her with kisses
   And when we're in a lover's clinch
   She gets all excited
   When she begs for my big ten inch

   Record of a band that plays the blues
   Well a band that plays the blues
   She just love my big ten inch
   Record of her favorite blues

   My girl don't go for smokin'
   And liquor just make her flinch
   Seem she'll go for nothin'
   'Cept for my big ten inch

   Record of a band that plays the blues
   Band that play the blues
   She just love my big ten inch
   Record of her favorite blues

Sweet Emotion

   (Tyler, Hamilton)

   Sweet emotion
   Sweet emotion

   Talk about things and nobody cares
   Wearing out things that nobody wears
   Ya callin' my name, but I gotta make clear
   I can't say baby where I'll be in a year

   Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent
   Said my get up and go musta got up and went
   Well I got good news she's a real good liar 
   Cause a backstage lover set your pants on fire

   Sweet emotion
   Sweet emotion

   I pulled into town in a police car 
   Your daddy said I took you just a little too far
   Tellin' other things, but your girlfriend lied 
   Can't catch me cause the rabbit done died
   Yes it did

   Standin' in front just shakin' your ass
   I take you back stage you can drink from my glass
   I talk about something you can sure understand 
   Cause a month on the road and I'll be eatin' from your hand

No More No More

   (Tyler, Perry)

   Blood stains the ivories on my daddy's baby grand
   Ain't seen the daylight since we started this band
   No more, no more
   No more, no more

   Store bought clothes fallin' 'part at the seams
   Tea leaf readin' gypsies fortune tellin' my dreams
   No more, no more
   No more, no more

   Holiday Inn, lock the door with a chain
   You love 'em and you hate it but to me they're all the same
   No more, no more
   No more, no more
   No more, no more

   Baby I'm a dreamer
   Found my horse and carriage

   Stalemate jailbait ladies can't refuse
   You love 'em then you leave 'em with your sold out reviews
   No more, no more
   No more, no more

   Sweet talkin' bar room ladies disease
   Slippin' with her lips slidin' down your knees
   No more, no more
   No more, no more
   No more, no more

   Me and my life a screamer
   Bound to a wife in marriage
   Baby I'm a dreamer
   Found my horse and carriage

   Ladies hold the aces and their lovers call it passion
   The men call it pleasure but to me it's old fashioned
   Times they're a changin' nothing ever stands still
   If I don't stop changin' I'll be writin' my will
   It's the same old story never get a second chance
   For a dance to the top of the hill

   Baby I'm a dreamer
   Found my horse and carriage

Round And Round

   (Tyler, Whitford)

   If you believe in me
   Like I believe in you
   You wouldn't be tellin' me things
   That weren't exactly true
   Now everythin' changes
   Ain't nothin' the same
   I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
   I can't remember my name

   Cause the life I been livin'
   And the love I been givin'
   Would be sure to set you spinnin'
   With your feet never touchin' ground 
   And I'm round and round

   Well it was one for all
   And it was all for one
   And everything that we did
   Never bothered no one
   Look it
   Now everythin' changes
   Ain't nothin' the same
   I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
   I can't remember my name

   Cause the life I been livin'
   And the love I been givin'
   Would be sure to set you spinnin'
   With your feet never touchin' ground 
   And I'm round and round and round and round and round
      and round and round

   Can you remember the days
   When you were sweet sixteen
   And always caught in the blaze
   Of someone else's dreams
   Look it
   Now everythin' changes
   Ain't nothin' the same
   I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
   I can't remember my name

   I'm goin' round and round and round and round and round...

   Goin' round and round and round and round and round and round...

You See Me Crying

   (Tyler, D. Solomon)

   You see me crying
   Don't let it getcha down
   You see me crying
   I'm back to the lost and found

   Chorus:
      Honey whatcha done to your head
      Honey was it the words I said
      Honey whatcha done to your head
      Honey was it the words I said

   You see me crying
   Say your a ladies man
   You see me crying
   So hard to understand

   Chorus

   You see me crying
   Please say you'll stick around
   And I got to be your lover, hon, let me take you to town
   And I'll show you everything around
   And I'll never let you down
   Cause my love is like a merry-go-around

   Chorus
