Dum dada dum Doped up dollies on a one way ticket to blood, ticket to blood Switch her on, turn her key, then sit back and watch her have fun She said the night ain’t over till someone tells me to calm down, sit down, sit down, calm down Doped down dollies on a way ticket to blood, ticket to blood Yeah. 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Dancing in the street all loopy and blind 2-3-9 my little partner in crime, Didn't study for the test and it's past bedtime 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Feeling like we're moving through water tonight 2-3-9 it's a victimless crime, just digging on the feeling of feeling sublime A crime with the Missus, fuses lit by her light, See my mujer impressionate is known to dance with sleepy feline eyes. 'Cause she's a long cat, a sly cat, Not someone going your way She's quite a little ninja, my tough little ninja, my tough little ninja, Me entiendes hombre! 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Dancing in the street all loopy and blind 2-3-9 my little partner in crime, Didn't study for the test and it's past bedtime 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Feeling like we're moving through water tonight 2-3-9 it's a victimless crime, just digging on the feeling of feeling sublime I'm Mary Mack I'm dressed in black I got silver buttons All down my back I picked the lock With my black hair pin So me and my man Can sneak right in I cracked the safe dialed 8-6-5 Escaped on elephants In the middle of the night Jumped over the fence We got so high And didn't come back Till we touched the sky It's just a clean sneak enter through the back door the maid walks you through lead your lady to the dance floor she may review, push, stumble back spin, baby spin, feelin' re-re-re-re-re relaxed. drink after drink, and track after track you can’t beat a night with her lookin' like that connect the wires, illuminate the city Feelin' 110 when out with the ladies 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Dancing in the street all loopy and blind 2-3-9 my little partner in crime, Didn't study for the test and it's past bedtime 8-6-5 baby study the rhyme, Feeling like we're moving through water tonight 2-3-9 it's a victimless crime, just digging on the feeling of feeling sublime Doped up dollies on a one way ticket to blood, ticket to blood x2 She said the night aint over till someone tells me to calm down, sit down, sit down, calm down Doped down dollies on a way ticket to blood, ticket to blood Yeah.

Two kids excited when they hit the pavement You know the sight of us, the two most complacent Oh my God is this the world? How will we keep ourselves young? How will we keep our souls pure? We'll have to step back, be steady, and check out the new scenery Deduct what we are seeing and trust each others opinion Gotta push back the people who try and sour reality There's so many bitter, we'll have to be believers Stand tall We both look them in the eye We're trying not to laugh just yet I think we'll both do fine Now we're laying after a perfect day as we fade away, what a world we'll make Well I'm forever your fighting partner Yah, I can hold you above them for days You see, my arms are strong and I'm focused We're in store for better days Oh no, I don't need to see Just tell me what it looks like above the clouds Describe the sky to me, just describe the sky to me While we're laying after a perfect day, as we fade away, what a world we've made I told her, "Relax, there's no need to be shy Go ahead and laugh too loud, my friends think you're divine Feel safe and alive, come look at the sky Tonight you look so nice" Tonight we'll be... We both stand tall We always look them in the eye We're always laughing out too loud Us two are doing quite fine Two kids shaping their lives Yes we will survive Yes we will survive

Okay, I'll answer for real If I found myself stranded on an island with 6 million girls, well, I'd put them all to work We'd build a kickass sailboat to get me back to you See, I'm not fucking around I just love how you come up with these You're saying if I was drunk and away on tour and if we were in a ooh big fight and then some loosey twit started flirting with me Well, even drunk and bummed out I'd say you best move on girl, I don't mess around No! Whoah-oh-oh-oh Yah-yah-yah-yah So do you have it straight? If not keep on asking The bar's open late and I don't mind Until you finally see, with you, I won't be fucking around Sure, we'll have two more drinks, and just a bit closer Hit me with another of your silly questions When the sun comes up, you'll see I won't be fucking around If my friends from school days brought me to a strip club, bought me some of those lap dances, say what would I do then? Well, I'd have to point to Mikey, see he don't have too much luck with the ladies Tell the girls "There, that's me," then I'll call you up so we can razz it around What if you high school girlfriend showed up while I was away? Well, I'd go under the sink and grab some insect repellent and spray that girl away! Yeah, I'll stop my stealing I'll stop my fighting I'll change my dirty ways For you just you yeah I'm damn well smart (and I know what I got) and I won't be fucking around So are you feeling good? Do you know I'm yours? Raise up that head and those cute shoulders Let's head on home I'll never be fucking around

So what the hell you mean that ain't no way to meet a girl? We invented booze and bars to relax us in this world You sit all jacked on coffee waiting for fate to enter scene, or what, is it better being a creep, shopping for women on a screen? You got all these theories man, on how to meet a mate while all these women got theories on how to keep you away I'm saying, you act so taxed, relax, don't be wound up so tight, tonight She goes, I like your stupid shirt, what's it say "riot"? Never have I met a girl so nice and polite, do you mind if I catch you later though, see that there's my ride and if you hit up Bukowski's, I'll see you later tonight A little liquor helps us pave the way to romance, gets you both on your way and it all started with a kiss a week Yes it starts with a kiss a week Why you always point me out and say "He's booty calling!" Last time I checked you ain't no hip-hop kid, you bawler You're a borderline Yah-dude who should down his chick-drink quick Wanna meet up with her stat, before the booze trump out my logic And every morning we'd be both quiet Both with headache, that don't feel very nice Quickly we'd escape each other, yes, yes, fun, fun, see you later Daylight's for recovery, walking home is a misery She said, "It's simple shit, we're bad but it's fun It's simple shit, to be too good is just dumb" Both staying up so late at night Hell let's try this in the light "Cause if we keep coming back The chemistry must be on track Eventually we'd both stick around Pounding coffee and joking around Soon we'd call each other before we went out But we know how it started, yes we know how it started with A little liquor helps us prove the way to romance, got us both on our way

Been wishing on, Been holding on Been waiting for you girl, Oh no am I too late? We didn't know we were in love Is it too late? 'Cause now we know I remember when we used to stay up so late, yeah I remember when we used to complain about love I didn't know it then, I couldn't see it then But how I know you now, yes How clear I see you now, See you now Blind yeah blind, how silly we've been, so Blind yeah blind, how silly we've been Too young to see how we connect Too young to see we're two best friends Too young to be brave enough to lay by you I'll forever stand Been wishing on, Been holding on Been waiting for you boy, Oh no you're not too late I remember when you broke up with the boy from Gipsy Hill, yeah I remember how terribly ill you felt I held you then, Told you, yes you'd find a man Now I am desperately trying just to be that man, Be your man Wait Don't wait Now I have traveled the world around But by your side is the only home I've found I see and truly need to feel your strength in the world of beauty Now would you ever come search for me Could we refresh our love's longevity? It's our endless story

Chin-chin, chadda-wadda-wa hey Finding love in other nations Sunshine girls with late romancing Steering through life like the last real caption Feeling good's a simple combination Tick, it's time now Boom! "You drink too much"-That's what my mother screams at me "You look too rough"-My sisters are always naggin' me "He don't try enough"-Teachers holler at me But than I tune that all right out, Pop always said "You go live free" So what's wrong ya'll? Nothing at all! Does the rest of the world know there's no stopping us all? Play the music louder Dance a little smoother Stoke the fire bigger And let's love a little longer DIY BYOB Rally up D'd'd'dee DIY BYOB Rally up Go BIG D, Baby Winks from girls in other nations Brought me to her favorite place then Found shadows to share secrets in Two free souls who got a lot in common

You gotta live where it feels right Right in the full sense it's all about sight Sight of the city sight of your friends Friends complement the city to a nice blend Yeah! Down around here We go and Keep things nice We sweep out those who take interest in a fight Down around here The music plays an uppity beat Than a trumpet plays a saxophone plays It's nice Basement windows boom out the sounds Of beats where our women love to be spun around 'Round here people got their art on check Well have you be a poet painter or just give respect Keep Listenin' Down around here We read what Bukowski wrote Down 'round here We think ska music is dope We crowd the stereo We pass the smoke slow We pull our women closer for our love for them to show Society we've analyzed Humanity we've terrorized Philosophy we've memorized There's no way No way I'm doing anything The way the city feels today It's getting hot Getting hot outside Bust out the fan baby Everything feels nice Down around here positive minds meet Plotting dreams into plans that manifest into beats Well here you got a problem speak it coolly and calmly 'Cause we're supporting those with evolved mentalities Boston here fluent in Stroll The people's confidence is full in control You'll find me at 42 longitude 71 latitude Only European-style city in the U.S. man It's arguable Jamaica Plain, Mission Hill my worn out sneaks Just hanging out on rooftops un-caged and free Down around here One mic is a studio Visions and talent glow Minds and music grow Labeling we've downsized Music we re-stylized Self expression's never compromised

Well it's alright Well it's okay There's someone out there Waiting for you, just waiting to meet you The boy was never the crazy one, you know the one to talk first, so it must have been a moment of just pure inspiration, He said, "Yeah you know the girl, the one with those long crazy curls? Well I'm gonna ask her out man, that's right, I'm gonna take her around the world" Maybe it was his soft voice Maybe it was just his lean Maybe it was the way his lip curled when she'd really made him think Maybe it was just those brown eyes Guess we'll never really know, But she said "Sure that sounds nice, what time would you like to go?" They walked about the gardens, you know, the pond, near the swan boats, He picked a blue flower and he told her a couple jokes, But when it came time for dancing, the hall's price was just too big, He stuttered, kicked some dirt, he had to think of something quick So he just twirled her outside the window, With a delicate embrace, And just about everyone inside watched them dance, with moonlight on their face Time It takes time Time To find the one you love Both had curfews, both were missed, He told her a little secret, Which earned him a little kiss, it was strange in a familiar way, familiar in a strange way, When the sun finally came up, they were just laying, counting the waves

You know Miss you were damn hard to find, But by far it was worth all the wait and the time Tell me, do you believe that you and me are gonna make it yeah? You know Miss you were damn hard to find What with all these other women wasting my time I looked in the clubs, And the bars every night I looked in the streets, But it was you that I could never find So tell me Where did all the women go? 'Cause since that I have found you Oh you're the only one I see That I see / For me Now when it rains We grab a bottle of wine Roll her pant legs up Splash around and unwind Collect the rain in our hands No umbrella that's fine Having a kickass day Fun don't always come with sunshine You know Miss you were damn hard to find I like how even in the damn rain you shine Tell me, do you believe that you and me are gonna make it yeah? Warmly dining, they gaze at us Outside dancing, wet and careless Two fools splashing around dumb luck While the thunder rumbles above Unabashed, reckless and rude We'll always be just a couple of loons Everyone's looking past menus Of me completely drenched in you
10.
Washed away sunshine Two tables for two Known for a laugh but Known to be blue Call it a mishap It's sad, but it's true Looks like I'll never stop Loving you

I,I,I, 03:32
Rope's been cut Sailing away No more raining on our sunny days They're way too bossy and downright mean I won't let them toss scary thoughts in your dreams How could they think what was wrong was right They're always coming at us looking for a fight We wanna live in peace And they're loving their war But you know me, shit you know me I,I,I,I,I,I,I,I say we ditch them baby I,I,I-I,I,I say those kids are losers baby Sad souls Double-dumb Hate it when they 'shh, shh' You so alive Triple fly / Crazy fly Make me feel so good. I,I,I - I,I,I say we're what's important baby. So what can I sing to you that I don't whisper to you every night? I found that beat that keeps you moving all night, that God. I know yeah, I know yeah To look through my eyes it must be tough But, gaze in that mirror girl 'Cause that's the only thing I love Line them up, line them up Say the word I'll push 'em around for you I don't care if it's a dragon-spider, I'll knock any monsters down for you Show me, show me a better girl. No you're never gonna, never, never gonna find it. Show me, show me a better world, Without you baby, I don't, I don't, I don't want it. What can I sing to her that I don't whisper to her every night? I'm gonna make sure that little girl inside her can shine.
