Lyrics:
From the moment I arrived
Until the day that I died
I was selfish and slow
Too slow to ride by your side
But I was so afraid
That I began
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
fashion doll
Wake up wake up
No one will see
This is a moment we'll mark time by
Say we did that when
Say we did that why
And the clothes do not make
Time flies by, day to day
I start to question decisions made
I see old friends don't understand
What lies ahead already planned
Apprehensive
and true, all of six foot two
But they broke me across the back
By a name I'm known and it's not my own
For they call me Crooked Jack
The ganger's
Hey, look around; looking down,
You'll never see me.
I'm standing right by your side.
You'll never hear me.
What did you say?
Did you mean that
the locust years
It hurt to hear her baby cry
Worked two jobs to get by
Convinced herself she never needed a man
Holding back the tears
She survived
the bridge and pray
I dare you, I dare you, do it & die today
Light as a feather, stiff as a board!
Everybody's doin' it,
Don't think your gonna get away
2
Claiming all you find is yours
Greedy two faced nothing
Who do you think you are?
You know there's
Gonna be a big rude awakening
You're a phony disgrace
Today I may not have a thing at all
Except for just a dream or two
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow
And all my tomorrows belong to you
boulders
Rollin with my chip Motorola
Blazer all fucked but I ain't walkin
Head feelin light cause my stomach startin to talkin
As I roll by hoes yellin
I saw you walking away from the battlefield
Through the clearing smoke to the other side
Lay down your weary head
And gazing up two ocean birds
niggas is gone, rest in peace though
Fifty-Two blocks, Gazelle frames
Bald heads and heavy chains
Somehow caught in the game
Back in '83, before cable TV
down his despair
By the light of his bedside angels glare
She was made in Havana
Inscribed Hozanna
Oh Hozanna
He keeps his healing hands
Where
Epoch of denial
Visual deceit
Two horned grown in man
Disembody thee
Entreaty of lies
From her melting face
Insolent contempt
To divide
true to me, fuck what you think
Gone-gone for a second there
Glad I'm back, I'd disappear (x2)
Purple pills up in my kitchen wit no name
I didn't cry when romance was through
I looked around for somebody new
Since my romance, I've kissed one or two
But I'm afraid their kisses won't
Ninety miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving
Don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind
What
talking that shit)
1's for the money 2's for the weed spot
undercover cops follow me though they need not
it's like I'm Rick James
caught in the mix
alright, Jack, and how about you?
Gonna catch me a wave that's rolling through
And turn a trick or two
I'm alright, Jack, no flies on me
I'm within
shuckin'
It's two big {?}, gorilla arms and mad ducats
Bust in your house like the little man Mighty Mouse
Piss on your TV cause you watchin' all
(D. Vaughn, M. Clayton, B. St.James)
Somebody's calling out your secret name
And your window's being kissed by stones
Baby can you hear my silent
Bell tower
At the station
Is ringin' the morning out.
Imprisoned by
The situation.
Would be every bit as sour
If I miss you half as much.
Of people who are down in a hole
The songs of the 50 states
The songs of the 50 states
No two alike but each connected by a golden thread
I'll try not
