I dreamed I had a fever I was pushin' one-oh-three My mom's all upset - cryin' by my bedside Everybody's prayin' for me I hear a scratchin' at the window I somehow twist myself around I realize I'm eyes to eyes With the fella in the Brite Nitegown Brite Nitegown Brite Nitegown You can't fight with the fella In the Brite Nitegown The eagle flies on Friday My baby wants to bash I hit the ATM - a...
Uptown It's murder out in the street Uptown It's murder out in the street That's where I found my mandarin plum That's where you'd be if you found one Where the nights are bright And joy is complete Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street Since May There's trouble most every night Where once we danced our sweet routine It reeks of wine and kerosene Where the nights are bright And joy is complet...
I hear Denise is back on the outside That's she's got a wicked plan She's callin' in the Gong sisters again To form the ultimate five chord band For eight months now in that freaking cell She's been knockin' ideas around Now she's good and ready to make a big noise Right here in her own hometown [Chorus:] Here comes the H Gang Slammin' into Hinktown Oh you better get off the stage boy 'cause t...
Standing tough under stars and stripes We can tell The dream's in sight You've got to admit it At this point in time it's clear The future looks bright On that train all graphite and glitter Undersea by rail Ninety minutes from New York to Paris Well by seventy-six we'll be A.O.K. What a glorious world this willl be What a glorious time to be free Get your ticket to that wheel in space While t...
They came in under the radar When our backs were turned around In a fleet of Lincoln Town Cars They rolled into our town Confounded all six senses Like an opiate in the brain Mary shut the garden door Looks a lot like rain Mary shut the garden door Mary shut the garden door We pounded Rachel's radio For reports about the bridge There was nothing on but static Nothing in the fridge We lay there...
High above Manhattan town What floats and has a shape like that Fans like us who watch the skies We know it's Morph the Cat Gliding like a big blue cloud From Tomkins Square to Upper Broadway Beyond the park to Sugar Hill Stops a minute for a latte He oozes down the heating duct Swims like seaweed down the hall He briefly digs your wiggy pad And seeps out through the wall It's kind of like an ...
Well I guess I needed a miracle If I was gonna make my flight I had to get to gate C13 And it was still way out of sight Something in my carry on bag Tipped off the x-ray machine 'Cause then an angel straight from heaven asked me to 'step behind that screen' And when I felt the wand sweep over me You know I never felt so clean Well you won't find my name on your list Honey you know I ain't no ...
The Great Pagoda of Fun The stars are bright tonight the air is sweet though summer's over now there's a strange new music in the street you and i know the world can't be like this it's our love that makes it shine girl whatever trouble waits outside these walls safe inside this house of light we make up our own storyline around the neighborhood they stare and grin as if they live their lives ...
Mona's become a child of the night When she goes out It's only for bare necessities She says she's had it up to here with light While the city sleeps That's when she comes alive Yes, the night belongs to Mona When she's dancing all alone Forty floors above the city CDs spinnin' AC hummin' Feelin' pretty Sometimes she'll call at some unholy hour She wants to talk All of this grim and funny stuf...
A shadow crossed the blue Miami sky As we hit the causeway by the big hotel We fought Now I can't remember why After all the words were said and tears were gone We vowed we'd never say goodbye When we kissed we could hear the sound of thunder As we watched the regulars rush the big hotels We kissed again as the showers swept the Florida shore You opened your umbrella But we walked between the ...
What I Do I say "Ray, why do girls treat you nice that way?" He said it's not what I know what I think or say It's what I do It's what I do It's deep beneath the skin It's what I major in It's what I do Yes, I come to play and I bring big soul I could rock long before they named it rock and roll It's what I do It's what I do I'm specially qualified To keep them satisfied It's what I do You tur...
