Wake up kids it's half past the youth
Ain't nothin really changin but the date
You a grand slammer, but you're no Babe Ruth
You got to learn how to relate, or you'll be
swingin from the pearly gate
I got all the answers, lo and behold you got
the right key baby But the wrong key hole yo
Yeah
Well I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
And how I got to thinkin'
About all those things you said
About ordinary people
And how they make you sick
And if callin names kicks back on you
Then I hope this does the trick
'Cause I'm sick of your complainin'
About how many bills
And I'm sick of all your bitchin'
'Bout your poodles and your pills
And I just can't see no humor
About your way of life
And I think I can do more for you
With this here fork and knife
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're
good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for
more
Eat the Rich: I gotta get this off my chest
Eat the Rich: take one bite now, spit out the
rest, uh huh
So I called up my head shrinker
And told him what I'd done
He said you best go on a diet
Yeah I hope you have some fun
And a don't go burst a bubble
On rich folks who get rude
'Cause you won't get in no trouble
When you eats that kind of food
Now they're smoking up their junk bonds
And then they go get stiff
And they're dancing at the yacht club
With Muff and Uncle Biff
But there's one good thing that happens
When you toss your pearls to swine
Their attitudes may taste like shit
But go real good with wine
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're
good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for
more
Eat the Rich: I gotta get this off my chest
Eat the Rich: take one bite now, spit out the
rest
Believe in all the good things
That money just can't buy
Then you won't get no bellyache
From eatin' humble pie
I believe in rags to riches
Your inheritance won't last
So take your Grey Poupon my friend
And shove it up your ass!
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're
good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for
more
Eat the Rich: I gotta get this off my chest
Eat the Rich: take one bite now, spit out the
rest
Eat the Rich: there's only one thing that they're
good for
Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for
more
Eat the Rich: don't stop me now I'm goin' crazy
Eat the Rich: that's my idea of a good time baby

The day rolls in, the night rolls out
Desire rules without a doubt
The heart beats fast, you salivate
And when you come it won't be late
I guess by now you got the score
A little taste you want it more
From San Antone to Marrakesh
Yeah when the night comes
Everybody gotta have FLESH
You got me all soakin' wet
FLESH- the only thing that's worth the sweat
From the day that Eve did Adam
Down to Romeo and Juliet
Everybody gotta have . . .
The prince of lust has met his match
The witch has brewed her baddest batch
His sword is sharp and hard as stone
Her cauldron begs for one more bone
And so my love, this story's told
From modern times to days of old
From Boston Mass, to Bangladesh
Yeah when the night comes
Everybody gotta have FLESH
It's got me all soakin' wet
FLESH- the only thing that's worth the sweat,
yeah
From the Mississippi River
To the highest mountain in Tibet
Everybody gotta have . . .
FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet
FLESH - the only thing that's worth the sweat
FLESH - you got me all soakin' wet, ah ah ah
ah ah
FLESH - the only thing, the only thing, the only
thing ahh
From a Sufi in a rickshaw to a bimbo in a pink
Corvette
Everybody gotta have . . .
Flesh
Yeah yeah
You wonder why you got holes in your shoes
You wonder why they got more money than you
You wonder why you got nothin' to lose
It makes no sense, don't try to figure it out
You gotta walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Yeah
Well, she says that she loves ya
In your mind there's no doubt, but
You feel like a stranger
When the lights go out
As you lie there awake
You think this ain't no gift
Don't try to figure that weight's too heavy to
lift
You gotta walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's
Walk on down
Walk on down
'Cause I got no time to lose
It's my life if I choose
Put on my walkin' shoes
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you're shit outta luck
There's just one thing to do and that's

Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Love has got me down
A tear just hit the ground
So I started writing you this song
But the words I wrote came out all wrong
Yeah, but it's alright
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
When you can't define the crime
Then life ain't worth a dime
When they take away everything you've got
And they rub your nose in the funky spot
Not without a fight
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Don't get deep, shut up and dance, yeah
When you work your fingers to the bone
Now what does that get you--nothing
In a crowd of people
You're still alone
You hope that tells you something
The road to heaven is paved in hell
And it makes you wonder
Why we're here at all
Check out the shape of your circumstance
He wears the dress and she wears the pants
Here comes Jill and she needs romance
But you can't do jack so shut up and dance!
Sex is like a gun
You aim, you shoot, hah hah, you run
When you're splittin' hairs with Mr. Clean
It's like getting head from a guillotine
And the night has just begun
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
Oh shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance, yeah
Don't get deep, shut up and dance
Talk is cheap, shut up and dance
shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut
up
Don't get deep, shut up and dance, ah yeah
There was a time
When I was so brokenhearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin' kind, so listen
All I want is someone I can't resist

Yeah, I got to tell you one thing
It's been on my mind
Girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away

Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
It's a fire I can't resist
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you

Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my
sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave, but couldn't get
out the door, heh heh
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin that I
Would die
It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the
light
Oh, it's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll
be alright
Yeah, it's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts
tonight
That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings,
yeah
You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous
talk, oh yeah
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive
It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the
light
Oh, it's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll
be alright
Oh, it's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts
tonight
desperate hearts, desperate hearts ????...
So from all of us at Aerosmith
To all of you out there wherever you are
Remember, the light at the end of the tunnel
may be you, goodnight
