Gospel of Greed

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

It’s the gospel of greed
(they call it/) it’s the age of me
but it isn’t just I
it is them and thee

Now it’s natural to want to
take care of yourself
but when you take too much
you steal from somebody else

and if you think they’re gonna take that lying down
(you) must be a politician or a TV-preacher clown
riding around in your Mercedes Benz
giving money to hookers and screwing your friends

(You’re singing)
I don’t care if the eskimos freeze
as long as they don’t sneeze on me
I don’t care if the starving survive
long as they don’t try to make a feast of a slice of my pie

Hasta la Vista, M’Cheri

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

Hasta la vista mon cheri

I’m sorry I have to go
but I thought you might like to know
it’s not my heart
that made us part
I’m just leaving cause I have to go

Sometimes love tears us apart
sometimes it’s best not to start
but sometimes you find
that love’s truly blind
and usually you’re just not too smart

So it’s: “Hasta la vista mon cheri,”
It’s just another way to say “Ciao, Baby”
Sayanora, auf weidersein
I’ll see you when I see you again.

I don’t know when we’ll meet again
but at least we’re parting as friends
Maybe I lied
of but Baby I tried
A mistake I won’t be makin’ again

I’m sorry I have to go
but I thought you might like to know
It’s not my heart
that says we must part
It’s my shrink that says you gotta go

Head Full of Crazy, Heart Full of Fire

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

When I see you
and I look in your eyes
I get a head full of crazy
and a heart full of fire
but I cant talk about it
and I cant act on it
and I couldnt really stop it
even if I wanted
I’m tellin you so that you understand
that’s what it’s like to be a man…

I work all day and
I sweat in the sun
I’ll work all by life
and I’ll die when it’s done
but if I had you
to sleep by my side
if I had you
to be my bride
if I had you
I’d be glad to be a man

Now I know that you
would really like to stay
but I have responsiblities
that must come into play
I must think of what’s right
— what’s right for you
When his girl loses her head
— a man’s gotta think for two
but that’s what it’s like
that’s what its like to be a man

I Lost My Best Friend

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

I lost my best friend the day that I lost you

I lost my best friend the day that I lost you
I lost my best friend the day that I lost you
I lost my best friend but at least I got the hell rid of you

I feel so bad when I see him on the street with you
I feel so bad when I see him out on the street with you
I wanna rush up to him and say . . .
“Don’t worry brother, I know just what you’re goin’ through!”

I wake up at night and count my lucky stars now you’re gone
I wake up at night baby and count my lucky stars now you’re gone
I lost three good years of my life baby
but I live like a man reborn from this day on

last night I lost the best friend (thing) I ever had
but at least I gots rid a you-

It’s Only Been a Million Years

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

It’s Only Been a Million Years

One day you’ll wake up
and figure out I’ve gone
Only thing surprise me
took you so damn long

Only been a million years
since I had a dream
It’s only been forever
since I felt a thing

one day I love you
next day I don’t
Hard to believe
You didn’t know

It only takes an instant
for the hottest flame to die
it only takes forever
to spend your life wond’rin’ why

Pretty Little Head

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

Pretty Little Head

Babe I’ve been alone for such a long time
this loneliness tearin’ me apart
I got a pain in my head and a fire in my loins
and a whole lot of empty in my heart

If you had a thought in your pretty little head
Then maybe we could talk
today we’re alive tomorrow we’re dead
so I think right now we’d better rock

I look in your eyes and I wonder what
is going on in your mind
Are you really where you are
or where you’ll be tomorrow night?

your leg touches mine beneath the table
I feel your hand slide up my thigh
I feel kinda dizzy I feel kinda high
I feel like I’m gonna die

If you had a thought in your pretty little head
Then maybe we could talk
today we’re alive tomorrow we’re dead
so I think right now we’d better rock

Stood Up to Your Love

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

I STOOD UP TO YOUR LOVE

ya said its hard to love you
and I useta find that true
but now its impossible
no matter what I do (but)

I stood up to your love
I stood up like a man
I gave and gave and gave
until I didn’t give a damn

if this is the best love
ya can shove into my face
maybe you should shine/save it
caus I seemta lost the taste
(cause I no longer have the taste)

I used to see ya
in your fishnets and mini skirt
I just wanted to know ya
not roll with you in the dirt

but thats your idea of love baby
no matter who gets hurt
you wanna do what you wanna do
you get yours first

well im here to tell ya
better not want me truly yours
cause party of the second part
just ran around the world

I don’t know how ya lost control
but one day I just woke up
one day I was a zombie
a slave to this thing you call love

the next day the fever broke
the mirror was icy still
I looked for your reflection
as you sat on the window sill
For the first time I saw your eyes
the icey timeless calm
I knew I was almost lost
and my soul was almost gone

STUPID SHOES

Hey pretty mama
have you heard the news
Daddy’s gonna buy you
some stupid shoes

Hey pretty baby
can you believe
Daddy’s gonna part with
some of his green

Go down to K-Mart
Buy whatever you chose
Cause Daddy’s gonna buy you some
stupid shoes

Hey sweet darlin
have you heard
Daddy’s gonna buy you a
stupid bird

And if that stupid bird can’t sing
Daddy’s gonna break both of his wings
and if that stupid bird cand Do the King
Dadd’ys gonna do something terrible to that poor thing

Hey there shnookums
have you heard the word (heard the word, heard the word)
Daddy’s gonna buy you a
stupid T-Bird

Computer assisted aerodynamic design
and Dady can pay for it on time

And if they recall the Ford T-Bird
Daddy’s gonna kidnap Henry Ford the III

Tell It to Me in a Language That I’ll Understand

Search AYoS | Random Song Lyric

tell it to me baby in a language that I’ll understand

tell it to me baby
in a language that I’ll understand
I don’t speak french italian
hollandaise or hindustan
look like a straight talkin woman
why dont ya give it to me like a man

don’t put it between the lines
I won’t get the inference
dont make some dialectical comparison
cause I don’t know the difference
just come right out and say it
and then lets see the evidence

I know ya got something to say to me doll
don’t bother  putting it in words
I think I know what youre thinking
only I think I thought of it first
i guess the question is
do you want to fall in love [right now]
or do we gotta talk all night first
