Under The Bridge


Sometimes I feel like I dont have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in the city of angels
Lonely as I am together we cry

I drive on her streets cause shes my companion
I walk through her hills cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses the winded
I never worried now that is a lie


I dont ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love take me all the way
I dont ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love take me all the way


Its hard to believe that theres nobody out there
Its hard to believe that Im all alone
At least I have her love the city she loves me
Lonely as I am together we cry

I dont ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love take me all the way
I dont ever wanna feel like I did that day
Take me to the place I love take me all the way


Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

Blessed with a bucket of lucky mobility

Feelin good my brother gonna hug me
Drinkin my juice young love chug-a-lug me

Californication


Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your minds elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication

Its the edge of the world
and all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
Its understood that Hollywood
sells Californication


Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is that war youre waging

First born unicorn
Hardcore soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Marry me girl be my ferry to the world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
Its Californication


Space may be the final frontier
But its made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the Spears
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderaans not far away
Its Californication

Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population
Everybodys been there
And I dont mean on vacation

First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication


Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girls guitar
Theyre just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldnt save the world
From Californication

Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest there is no test
But this is what youre craving

First born unicorn
Hardcore soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Soul To Squeeze


Ive got a bad disease
But from my brain is where I bleed.
Insanity it seems
Has got me by my soul to squeeze.

Well all the love from thee
With all the dying trees I scream.
The angels in my dreams (yeah)
Have turned to demons of greed thats mean.

Where I go I just dont know
I got to got to gotta take it slow.
When I find my peace of mind
Im gonna give you some of my good time.

Today love smiled on me.
It took away my pain said please
All that you had to free
You gotta let it be oh yeah.


Where I go I just dont know
I got to got to gotta take it slow.
When I find my peace of mind
Im gonna give you some of my good time.

Oh so polite indeed
Well I got everything I need.
Oh make my days a breeze
And take away my self destruction.

Its bitter baby
And its very sweet.
Im on a rollercoaster
but Im on my feet.
Take me to the river
Let me on your shore.
Ill be coming back baby
Ill be coming back for more.

Doo doo doo doo dingle zing a dong bone
Ba-di ba-da ba-zumba crunga cong gone bad


I could not forget
But I will not endeavor
Simple pleasures arent as special
But I wont regret it never.

Where I go I just dont know
I got to got to gotta take it slow.
When I find my peace of mind
Im gonna give you some of my good time.

Where I go I just dont know
I might end up somewhere in Mexico.
When I find my peace of mind
Im gonna keep you for the end of time.

Otherside


How long how long will I slide
Separate my side; I dont
I dont believe its bad
Slittin my throat
its all I ever...

I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up; it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
Ive got to take it on the otherside

Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I gotta take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on


How long how long will I slide
Separate my side; I dont
I dont believe its bad
Slittin my throat
its all I ever...

Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtrays full and Im spillin my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
Ive got to take it on the otherside

A scarlet starlet and shes in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
I push the trigger and I pull the thread
Ive got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on


How long how long will I slide
Separate my side; I dont
I dont believe its bad
Slittin my throat
its all I ever...

Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that Its not my friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then its born again

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side; I dont
I dont believe its bad
Slittin my throat
its all I ever had (how long)
I dont
I dont believe its fair
Slittin my throat
its all I ever...

By The Way


Standing in line to see the show tonight
And theres a light on
Heavy glow.
By the way I tried to say Id be there
Waiting for.
Dani the girl is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee
Overload.

Steak knife.
Card Shark.
Con job.
Boot cut.


Skin that flick shes such a little DJ.
Get there quick by street but not the freeway.
Turn that trick to make a little leeway.
Beat that nic but not the way that we play.

Dog town.
Blood bath.
Rib cage.
Soft tail.

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And theres a light on
Heavy glow.
By the way I tried to say Id be there
Waiting for.


Black jack.
Dope dick.
Pawn shop.
Quick pick.

Kiss that dyke I know you want to hold one.
Not on strike but Im about to bowl one.
Bite that mic I know you never stole one.
Girls that like a story so I told one.

Song bird.
Main line.
Cash back.
Hard top.

Standing in line to see the show tonight
And theres a light on
Heavy glow.
By the way I tried to say Id be there
Waiting for.
Dani the girl is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... of her soul.


By the way I tried to say Id be there
Waiting for.

Ooh ahh guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh guess you never meant it
Ooh ahh guess you never meant it

From before
Standing in line to see the show tonight

Parallel Universe

Deep inside of a parallel universe
Its getting harder and harder
To tell what came first


Under water where thoughts can breathe Easily


Far away you were made in a sea
Just like me


[Chorus:]
Christ Im a sidewinder Im a
California King
I swear its everywhere
Its everything


Staring straight up into the sky
Oh my my a solar system that fits
In your eye Microcosm


You could die but your never dead spider web
Take a look at the stars in
Your head fields of space kid


[Chorus x 2]


Psychic changes are born in your heart
Entertain
A nervous breakthrough that makes us the
same
Bless your heart girl


Kill the pressure its raining on
Salty Cheeks
When you hear the beloved song
I am with you


[Chorus x 2]

Breaking The Girl


I am a man
Cut from the know
Rarely do friends
Come and then go
She was a girl
Soft but estranged
We were the two
Our lives rearranged
Feeling so good that day
A feeling of love that day

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
Youre breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think youre so clever
But now you must sever
Youre breaking the girl
He loves no one else


Raised by my dad
Girl of the day
He was my man
That was the way
She was the girl
Left alone
Feeling the need
To make me her home
I dont know what when or why
The twilight of love had arrived

Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
Youre breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think youre so clever
But now you must sever
Youre breaking the girl
He loves no one else


Twisting and turning
Your feelings are burning
Youre breaking the girl
She meant you no harm
Think youre so clever
But now you must sever
Youre breaking the girl
He loves no one else

My Friends


My friends are so depressed
I feel the question of your loneliness
Confide...cause Ill be on your side
You know I will you know I will

Ex-girlfriend called me up
Alone and desperate on the prison phone
They want to give her seven years
For being sad


I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you dont know yourself

My friends are so distressed
And standing on the brink of emptiness
No words I know of to express
This emptiness

I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you dont know yourself


Imagine me taught by tragedy
Release is peace

I heard a little girl
And what she said was something beautiful
To give your love no matter what
Is what she said

I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you dont know yourself

I
Saw your face
Elegant and tired
Cut it from the chase
Still I so admire
Blood shut your smile
Delicate and wild
Forgive me she was stoned
Rip right through me


Still I waited the chance of a lifetime
Go and get here I got her on my mind
Nothing better the feeling is so fine
Simply put I saw your love stream flow


Come on baby cause theres no name for
Give it up and I got what I came for
Universally speaking I
Take it back and you make me nervous
Nothing better than love and service
Universally speaking I
Went in the long run

Saw your crying
Dying to get high
Two of a kind

Still I waited the chance of a lifetime
Go and get her I got her on my mind
All the better the feeling it goes fine

Road Trippin

Road trippin with my two favorite allies
Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies
Its time to leave this town
Its time to steal away
Lets go get lost
Anywhere in the U.S.A.


Lets go get lost
Lets go get lost


[Chorus:]
Blue you sit so pretty
West of the one
Sparkles light with yellow icing
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun


These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for


So much as come before those battles lost and
won
This life is shining more forever in the sun
Now let us check our heads
And let us check the surf
Staying high and drys
More trouble than its worth
In the sun


Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun


These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for


In Big Sur we take some time to linger on
We three hunky dorys got our snakefinger on
Now let us drink the stars
Its time to steal away
Lets go get lost
Right here in the U.S.A

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for

Fortune Faded

They say at chess youve got to kill the queen
And then youve made it...

Do you?

A funny thing a king that gets himself
Assassinated...

Hey now every time I loose...
Altitude...

You took the town by storm
Now the mess you made is nominated...

Do you?

Now put away your welcome
Soon youll find youve overstayed it

Hey now every time I loose...
Altitude...

So divine hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Never mind the consequences of my
Wildest time my fortune faded...

To medicate this state of mind
Youll find is overrated...

Do you?

You saw it all come down and now
Its time to imitate it...

Hey now every time I loose...
Altitude...

So divine hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind the consequences of my
Wildest time my fortune faded...

Come on God do I seem bulletproof?

So divine hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind the consequences of my
Wildest time my fortune faded...
So divine hell of an elevator
All the while my fortune faded
Nevermind the consequences of my
Wildest time my fortune faded...

Save The Population

Historys so strong
Historys so strong
Historys so strong
Historys so strong

Thinking of a drinking song the honkytonk will do
Making another breaking bone your favorite ingenue
This the distant dawn
This the distant dawn

I put my cards upon the table
I do the speakers cause I am able
One picks is broken-down devotion
I threw my pistol in the ocean
Eyes wide with revelation
Chime at the police station
And when the verdict comes round
Im sure that you will go down

[Chorus:]
Stay all night
we save the population
Stay all night
we save the population
Stay all night
we save the population
Stay all night
we save the population

[Instrumental Bridge]

Pistol end its fawn
Sell it to the lexicon
A pistol landed hard
Lot on bottom lines be drawn

Take another bottle down to proper lam the shrew
Make another awful sound to rap the gothic through
Historys so strong
Historys so strong

I put my cards upon the table
I do the speakers cause I am able
One picks is broken-down devotion
I threw my pistol in the ocean
Eyes wide with revelation
Chime at the police station
And when the verdict comes round
Im sure that you will go down
