Lyrics:
Exit 8
Small cafe
Georgia moonlight
It's three a.m.
I've been driving all night
Got a funny air
Red-brown hair
In the porch light
She said "We're open all night
So won't you come inside
It's gonna be all right"
She said "tired?"
Spiral staircase going down, paint your body red and brown
On our knees we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase spiral staircase
Greasy haircuts a German Chinese girl
Gonna keep ya'll busy tugging at my curl
Get your ass together
You better walk, walk, walk by walking we cannot run
They all came to the party and there's four to every stall
Get's fust-er-ating just pissin' on this wall
Seems like there's another story bangin'
Around every step you fake
Spiral staircase going down, paint your body red and brown
On our knees we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase spiral staircase
They all came to the party and there's four to every stall
Get's fust-er-ating just pissing on this wall
Seems like there's another story bangin'
Around every step you fake
Spiral stair case going down paint your body red and brown
On our knees we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase spiral staircase
Spiral stair case going down paint your body red and brown
On our knees we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase spiral staircase
Spiral staircase
A they all came to party and there's four to every stall
It gets frustratin', a just a pissin' on this wall
Seems like there's another story bangin'
Around every step you fake
Spiral staircase goin' down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase! Spiral staircase
Spiral staircase goin' down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase!
Empty spaces, fill the places
Close to cold, damp walls
Where the cracks run, through the mended
In the house that no one calls
All along, alone, the tree-lined plains
Where the darkness is a red-brown maroon
Yeah, this is where my heart belongs
In a field nowhere close to you
Brave, bound boys, stay strong in there
The worst is almost over
One day they'll have to pay their dues
When they finally act a little sober
Be brave, bound boys, have no fear
We're all in this together
Our empty chests still pound with love
Diamond hearts that beat forever
You see, can't save, save me
You see, can't save, save me
This feels not given or a way to be
You'll have to stay or you'll never see
Where brave bound boys can go die for free
Where brave bound boys can go die for free
Bury your gold, oh don't delay
You'll have to throw your hearts away
Your treasures, your truth, all broken by youth
Be brave bound boys and show no fear
They have no room for your feelings here
Be brave bound boys, and remember still
How easy it is for love to kill
The darkness is a red-brown maroon
Yeah, this is where my heart belongs
In a field nowhere close to you
Our empty chests still pound with love
Diamond hearts that beat forever
Our empty chests still pound with love
Diamond hearts that beat forever
You save, can't save, save me
Can't save, save me
You see, can't save, save me
Die for free, let them see
We'll die for free, let them see
We'll die for free
Where brave bound boys can go die for free
Bury your soul, oh don't delay
You have to throw your heart away
Bury your soul, oh don't delay
You have to throw your heart away
Love, love, love kills
Love, love, love kills
Love, love, love kills
The sky is red-brown maroon
I can't get close to you
The darkness is a red-brown maroon
I am buried in a field nowhere close to you
Take my, my diamond heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
Diamond heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
Diamond heart
Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
Diamond heart
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty
But the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with
The rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
Intensity of relentless emanation won't allow the final screams
Red-brown death spreads the radioactive domination by absorbing
Flyaway corpses smelled another human ashes in the last breath
The scorching of hellish heat, the blinding light that illuminates!
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Red, brown, yellow
Black and white
They are precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children
Of the world
Jesus died for all the children
All the children of the world
Red, brown, yellow
Black and white
They are precious in His sight
Jesus died for all the children
Of the world.
Welcome to my volcano
I just watched the earth make itself
The earth owns itself
I choose to live on her
Welcome to my volcano
Her most feral and free emissions
This volcano belongs to the earth
And so I squat here
I feed the birds
I watch the seeds grow from bird poop
I watch the sea creatures nest in its crevices
I feed the birds
I watch the seeds grow from bird poop
I watch the sea creatures nest in its crevices
I watch the volcano reenact the beginning
I watch the volcano reenact the beginning
Welcome to my volcano
I just watched the earth make itself
The earth owns itself
I choose to live on her
Welcome to my volcano
Her most feral and free emissions
This volcano belongs to the earth
And so I squat here
I feed the birds
I watch the seeds grow from bird poop
I watch the sea creatures nest in its crevices
I feed the birds
I watch the seeds grow from bird poop
I watch the sea creatures nest in its crevices
I watch the volcano reenact the beginning
I watch the volcano reenact the beginning
Were it up to me
I would share this garden
Sounds to me to eat is greed
To eat red is to eat yellow
Gold brown, red brown
More greed grows inside
Make more love never grief
Were it up to me
Were it up to me
I would grant a pardon
Love is surely making me
Or maybe making someone else go
Red brown, gold brown
More machines grow inside
Make more loving machines
Were it up to me
Were it up to me
Were it up to me
I would share my garden
Love is surely making me
Or is it letting someone else know
Red brown, gold brown
I say God bless, my dear departed Peter,
That he never had to meet her,
His beautiful granddaughter who dyed -
It would have killed him again -
Her gorgeous red-brown hair black
When she turned 15 behind my back.
You lived with me at that time.
(Yes, I did.)
[Verse 1]
Misunderstandings
Sometimes can be demanding
From verbal jabs and blows
To metatarsal bones
Never wanted to play on a team
Content to run my own schemes
But then you came on the scene
The crimson queen of my dreams
It took a while to get going
Over these hangups of mine
Always stayed stuck in reverse
When I should have been in drive
Through laughter and pain
When we'd fight to maintain
You'd look at me
With those red-brown eyes and say
[Chorus]
It comes and goes
It ebbs and it flows
Through the highs and lows
We always stay together
Through ups and downs
Through the smiles and the frowns
We always stay together
We always stay together
[Verse 2]
It took a while to adjust
Sometimes we'd fight and we'd fuss
Catch a case over closet space
Communication and trust
But little did we know
Something would grow and take hold
To something bigger than both
Of us could have ever hoped
Through April showers
And November rain
The light of your sun
Burns an eternal flame
And your red-brown eyes
Soft in their gaze
Never cease to amaze
And I find myself sayin'
[Chorus]
It comes and goes
It ebbs and it flows
Through the highs and lows
We always stay together
Through ups and downs
Through the smiles and the frowns
We always stay together
We always stay together
[Rap Verse]
I see ya red-brown eyes shinin’, like diamonds ablaze,
Ruby quartz amber framed by a porcelain face
Silky curves so soft bathed in Chloe perfume
All eyes turn to you each time you step in a room
Met you at eighteen, young but already a queen
I was still green, freshman, for the life of me
Not yet ready, but steady bookmarking the page
Get my mind right, game tight, revisit some day
Ten years later and we're back on the scene
Reconnect on FB and now i'm startin my scheme
Nothin shady but persuadin to make you my lady
Start with a short term lease but our affection increased
Next thing you know, me became we, RBE traded rings
Two plus two equals four and now it's a family thing
Now on matrimony year eleven, still going strong
Don't always get along but stay together lifelong
My love, my life and wife, stay together lifelong
[Chorus]
It comes and goes
It ebbs and it flows
Through the highs and lows
We always stay together
Through ups and downs
Through the smiles and the frowns
We always stay together
We always stay together
[Bridge]
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it out of sight
It takes two to make a love so right
It takes two, me and you
It takes two to build a life together
It takes two to make it last forever
It takes two to make a love so right
It takes two, takes two, takes two, me and you
[guitar solo]
[Chorus x2]
It comes and goes
It ebbs and it flows
Through the highs and lows
We always stay together
Through ups and downs
Through the smiles and the frowns
We always stay together
We always stay together
It comes and goes
It ebbs and it flows
Through the highs and lows
We always stay together
Through ups and downs
Through the smiles and the frowns
We always stay together
We always stay together
Gone are the days when the ox fall down
Take up the yoke and plow the fiends around
Gone are the days when the ladies said' "Please
Gentle Jack Jones won't you come to me"
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
1920 when he stepped to the bar, drank to the dregs of the whiskey jar
1930 when the wall caved in, he paved his way selling red-eyed gin
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
Delilah Jones was the mother of twins
Two times over and the rest were sins
Raised eight boys, only I turned bad
Didn't get the lickin's that the other ones had
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
Tumble down shack on Big Foot country
Snowed so hard that the roof caved in
Delilah Jones went to meet her God
And the old man never was the same again
Daddy made whiskey and he made it well
Cost two dollars and it burned like hell
I cut hick'ry just to fire the still
Drink down a bottle and be ready to kill
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
Gone are the days when the ox fall down
Take up the yoke and plow the fiends around
Gone are the days when the ladies said' "Please
Gentle Jack Jones won't you come to me"
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin' down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
Spiral staircase going down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase, spiral staircase
Greasy haircuts, a German Chinese girl
Gonna keep y'all busy tugging at my curl
You better get your ass together
You better walk, walk, walk by walking we cannot run
They all came to the party and there's four to every stall
Became fusterating [incomprehensible] on this wall
Seems like there's another story bangin'
Around every step you fake
Spiral staircase going down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase, spiral staircase
They all came to the party and there's four to every stall
Get's fusterating just pissing on this wall
There seems like there's another story bangin'
Around every step you fake
Spiral staircase going down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase, spiral staircase
Spiral staircase going down
Paint your body red and brown
On our knees, we'll feast on a sex show
Spiral staircase, spiral staircase
[Incomprehensible]
You know the style of the day
Is wearin' a wig
If you don't have none
Get help indeed
You can wear 'em up
And you can wear 'em down
Wigs are the things all over town
Any kinda wig can be found
Just look around
I was talkin' to my cousin
The other day
The wind came up
And blew away the wig
She start crying hollerin'
And carryin' on
But it was too late
Her wig had gone
Wigs wigs wigs
That's where it's at
Wig over here
Wig over there
Wigs everywhere
They sellin' them fast
And you should know

Red brown and blond
And you know what I think

Nana in the kitchen putting numbers up
Got the yams red-brown with the marshmallow
Got a call from the cousins said they on the way
It's in the air, you can feel the soul music playing
Yeah, Nana in the kitchen putting numbers up
Got the rolls golden brown, turn the oven off
We finna' pull up pull up, cousin pull up pull up
Wait hol up hol up, the food still ain't ready, nigga
Oh
Oh what a wonderful night
Smiling as we look at lights
Driving thru rich neighborhoods
I thought they had it so good
It was colder than some Freon
In the heart of Broward county
Had my mama and my cousins and my nana all around me
We was vibing we was living with the shit that we was given
Never took a day for granted
December 1st started Christmas
Jackson's playing in the background
Singing bout Some Santa Claus kissing on his mama
Better not be my mom, way before the zaza
We was playing outside
Gotta make it home before the street lights
Runnin and ripping, I'm getting cuts from the mini
Blades of the grass got me scratching and itching
Made a world out a little
Adding fuel to the Hemi
All I knew was go to school
A nigga black and I'm gifted
I'm looking back and I picture it picture perfect as prisms
It's the time of year the air tickle ya skin
Take a sip or a hit, pop it straight to the lid
Finna over share with strangers 'bout when I was a kid ya
Nana in the kitchen putting' numbers up
Got the yams red-brown with the marshmallow
Got a call from the cousins said they on the way
It's in the air, you can feel the soul music playin'
Yeah, Nana in the kitchen putting numbers up
Got the rolls golden brown, turn the oven off
We finna' pull up pull up, cousin pull up pull up
Wait hol up hol up, the food still ain't ready, nigga
Oh

Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Dispenser Man, if you please
Serve my chick a mess of calories
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Flip back the lid
Scoop everything in sight
Make it a rainbow of red, brown and white
Chocolate chip and everything that's nice
Tutti frutti once and spumoni twice
Banana split for my baby
And a glass of plain water for me
Spray the whipped cream for at least an hour
Pile it as high as the Eiffel Tower
Load it with nuts, about sixteen tons
Top it with a pizza just for fun
Banana split for my baby
And a glass of plain water for me
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Stack her up with crazy goo
That's the stuff she likes to wade right through
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me
Now add the cherries
The kind she loves to munch
Skip one banana
Use the whole darn bunch
Drown it with fudge
Six or seven cans
Give her two spoons
She'll eat it with both hands
Banana split for my baby
And a glass of plain water for me
Separate checks, it must be
Charge the split to her
The water to me
Oh the banana split's for my baby
And the glass of plain water's for me
Ain't got no money
The glass of plain water's for me
Banana split for my baby
A glass of plain water for me

Chocolate chip and everything that's nice
Tutti-frutti once and spumoni twice
Banana split for my baby
And a glass of plain water for me
Spray the whipped cream for at least an hour
Pile it as high as the Eiffel Tower
Load it with nuts, about sixteen tons
Top it with a pizza just for fun
Banana split for my baby

Ain't got no money
The glass of plain water's for me
Praise be to the watchful eye
Diviner
Dawn child
Gatherer of the first slivers of day
Like handfuls of fresh grass
Dewy with promise
How you ready the children
How you warm the farm hands with your smile
How the animals parade by your side
Wisdom-purpose intertwined
Few have patience for these relations
For the gaping mouth of oceans
Stillness of volcanoes
Or colonial distortions of man
For fear of the eruption
The tsunami drumfire
Living dormant in the belly
But you
Oromia
Jamaica
Sudan
Cuba
Turtle Islands
cnd islands of red-brown people
Eat the silence sloppy
Stuff the shell with our namesongs
Until everything is Black again
Black again
Our trumpet sounds are melding
Into a ruckus-anthem
Fit for this dizzying faith
cwakener
First fruit of spring
Sweet almond
Rise
Bring your bitter twin
With cyanide at her pit
Teach us divine violence
The generosity of chaos
cnd to watch the small ones
The pebbles
Like us
Like seeds
To note the tremordance of our bodies
cs the second coming thesecondcoming
The lovestampede
Of a people
Born whole.
Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies, if you wanna know, this your secret
Creole!
Bad bad bad bad yellow bone
Bad bad bad bad red bone
Bad bad bad bad brown bone
Bad bad bad bad to the bone
Bad bad bad bad yellow bone
Bad bad bad bad red bone
Bad bad bad bad brown bone
Bad bad bad bad to the bone
So all my red bones get on the floor
And all my yellow bones get on the floor
And all my brown bones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
So all my red bones get on the floor
And all my yellow bones get on the floor
And all my brown bones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
(Creole!)

Ain't got no money
The glass of plain water's for me
Nothing takes me back
Nothing takes me back
Wake up in the morning and
I eat my fruit loops
Multi-coloured hoops ain't boring
Tastes like it used to
It was the sweetest thing
Reminds me of candy
Better as more time goes on
Red-brown like brandy
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Made me think of older days
When things were breezy
Purple milk left in the bowl
Life felt so easy, easy
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Nothing takes me back
Takes me back
Takes me
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
Like that bowl of cereal
When the white eagle of the North is flying overhead
And the browns, reds and golds of autumn lye in the gutter dead
Remember then the summer birds with wings of fire flame
Come to witness springs new hope, born of leaves decaying
And as new life will come from death
Love will come at leisure
Love of love, love of life and giving without measure
Gives in return a wondrous yearn for promise almost seen
Live hand in hand and together we'll stand
On the threshold of a dream
Yes please come in come in
Thank you for attending
This private viewing of my collection
Of oddities and curiosities from all around the world
Here you will see my gallery
My Addams, Gorey, and Grimly
But that's for the general public to see
Let's travel further down
Venture down the spiral staircase
Where my artifacts are stored
Yes some are quite illegal
But certain laws must be ignored
To house such priceless treasures
One cannot afford
To play by the rules that uncultured men adore
Yes I have voodoo dolls and shrunken heads
Reanimated limbs from the living dead
And gore-stained sheets stolen from the beds
Of the newly exorcised
And over here is a queer little piece of history
A shackled box shrouded in mystery
It seems the only skeleton key
Is the blood of men who lie
And speaking of blood
Please don't mind the floors
The red-brown spotting, the visceral smell
And where the wood is scored
As if by someone's fingernails
As they were dragged behind the door
It seems this evening's true purpose
Can no longer be ignored
My Pet Monster
Needs something to eat
It's a pity
But you're within reach
His tummy is rumbly
And Kibble just won't do
When what he's got the munchies for
Is you
As his teeth grind your bones
For his daily bread
I ignore your screams of agony
And soon you'll be dead
My Pet Monster
Can not be restrained
His hunger cannot
Be contained
The death of the innocent
Is my one regret
He's a monster
But he's still my pet
It's very far away
It takes about a half a day to get there
If we travel by my dragonfly
No, it's not in Spain
But all the same, you know it's a groovy name
And the wind's just right, hey
Hang on, my darling
Hang on if you want to go
Hear it's a really groovy place
It's uh, just a little bit of uh, said uh
Spanish castle magic
The clouds are really low
And they overflow with cotton candy
And battlegrounds red and brown
But it's all in your mind
Don't think your time on bad things
Just float your little mind around
Look out, ooh
Hang on my darling, yeah
Hang on if you want to go
It's a ha, as you can see
It's just a little bit of
Spanish castle magic
Yeah, baby, it's
Yeah, okay, okay
It's all in your mind, baby
Ow, yeah
Hang on my darling, hey
Hang on, hang on if you want to go
Oh girl, that's right, baby
It's a, a little bit of
Spanish castle magic, hey
Little bit of
Spanish castle magic
Hey, I can't sing this song
Yeah, baby
Get on, baby, yeah
It's all in your mind
Little bit of daydream here and there
Oh, yeah, oh, hey
Everything's going to be alright
It's very far away
It takes about a half a day to get there
If we travel by my dragonfly
No, it's not in Spain
But all the same, you know it's a groovy name
And the wind's just right, hey
Hang on, my darling
Hang on if you want to go
Hear it's a really groovy place
It's uh, just a little bit of uh, said uh
Spanish castle magic
The clouds are really low
And they overflow with cotton candy
And battlegrounds red and brown
But it's all in your mind
Don't think your time on bad things
Just float your little mind around
Look out, ooh
Hang on my darling, yeah
Hang on if you want to go
It's a ha, as you can see
It's just a little bit of
Spanish castle magic
Yeah, baby, it's
Yeah, okay, okay
It's all in your mind, baby
Ow, yeah
Hang on my darling, hey
Hang on, hang on if you want to go
Oh girl, that's right, baby
It's a, a little bit of
Spanish castle magic, hey
Little bit of
Spanish castle magic
Hey, I can't sing this song
Yeah, baby
Get on, baby, yeah
It's all in your mind
Little bit of daydream here and there
Oh, yeah, oh, hey
Everything's going to be alright
