shake shake, shake your baby now
shake shake, I don't mean maybe now
shake shake, shake your baby right now
shake shake, shake your baby now
shake shake, don't get lazy now
shake shake, shake your baby right now
take your baby by the hand and
lead her to the wonderland of love
hold her close and make her see that
she's the only one that you dream of
shake shake, shake your baby now
shake shake, go a little bit crazy now
shake shake, shake your baby right now
lovers' lies and alibis and promises
spoke softly in your ear
cannot hide the child inside who
threatens everything that you hold dear
shake shake, shake your baby now
shake shake, shake your baby now
shake shake, shake your baby right now

bela lugosi's friend

he's been gone
now he's coming back
he's coming for you
all dressed in black
the words he chooses
are very haunting
the force he looses is
very daunting
bela lugosi's friend
his friend his friend his friend
now it's time
to get started
his is a guiding hand
for the nearly departed
around your neck
the noose is tightening
the whole affair
is very frightening
bela lugosi's friend

I need a baggie
yes, I need a baggie
I don't care what's inside
I need it to survive
I need a baggie
'cause I'm so very lonely
yes, I'm so very lonely
do you think you could stay
do you think we could play
I'm so very lonely
it really breaks my heart
our love is dead before it starts
and now that you have gone
I'll have to keep on keepin' on
codiene morphine norpseudoephidrine
nubarene methadrine all types of amphetamines
alphaprodine betaprodine pethidine lefetamine
properidine pemoline nalbuphine anything
I've been bad, yeah, and I'm sorry
I've been bad, yeah, and I'm sorry
I will stay free from sin
until it happens again
I'm so bad, yeah, and I'm sorry
it really breaks my heart
our love is dead before it starts
and now that you have gone
I'll have to keep on keepin' on

what a word can mean
03:58
|
|||
|
you tell me I will have to wait
have to wait my turn before you can see me
you point to all the evidence
make appeals to common sense but they don't mean
too much to me
I can't wait forever now
though my time is worth nothing at all
you could make it so much better now
with a kind word to break my fall
how can I make you see
just what you mean to me
how can I make you see
all the love inside of me
I would die to see you wake up
with the morning sun
I would cry tears of joy
if you told me that I was the only one
when I first laid eyes on you
I could tell that you could never be mine
I tried hard not to stare at you
but you could make the moon refuse to shine
how can I make you see
how much you mean to me
how can I make you see
what a single word would mean to me

necessary but insufficient condition
necessary but insufficient condition
I need chocolate kisses
the high regard of all the misses
I need one who can treat me right
doesn't leave me alone all night
necessary but insufficient condition
necessary but insufficient condition
here comes my pride and joy
I can't tell if she's a girl or a boy
she's kinda racy, kinda dangerous
inspiring future reminiscences
necessary but insufficient condition
necessary but insufficient condition
when she showed me how it's done
my first thought was to get up and run
she smiled at me and she said okay
we can do this another way

big money

big money, big money
we sure ain't got it honey
but big money is all we really need
big money, oh big money
we sure ain't got it honey
but big money is what we really need
if it were up to me you wouldn't have to choose
but we've got nothing left to lose
the lackluster and the joy busters won't be calling the tune
'cause our day is coming very soon
you went to see your old friend today
even though you had said you'd stay away
you can't blame your mother
you can't blame your fate
you can't blame your shadow for leading you astray
we always knew there'd come a time like this
and I'm afraid I really must admit
you're looking awfully thin these days
not throwing a whole lot of shade
but you'll get another chance someday
