Toys in the Attic

In the attic, lights
Voices scream, nothing seems
Real's a dream

Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things that you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years, voices scream
Nothing seems real's a dream

Toys toys toys in the attic
Toys toys toys in the attic
Toys toys toys in the attic
Toys toys toys

In the attic, lights
Voices scream, nothing seems
Real's a dream

Leaving the things that are real behind
Leaving the things that you love from mind
All of the things that you learned from fears
Nothing is left for the years, voices scream
Nothing seems real's a dream

Toys toys toys in the attic
Toys toys toys in the attic
Toys toys toys in the attic........

Chaaaa.........

Uncle Salty told me stories of a lonely
Baby with a lonely kinda life to lead
Her mammy was lusted daddy he was busted
They left her to be trusted 'til the orphan bleeds
But when she cried at night no one came
And when she cried at night went insane

Uncle Salty told me when she was just a baby
That she'd get by and maybe someday she'd see
But soon she found her mother's love for all the others
The pushers and the shovers was the life to lead
But when she cried at night no one came
And when she cried at night went insane... oooooaa..

Oooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Oooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooooh oh yeah
Ooooh oh yeah

Now she's doin' any for money and a penny
A sailor with a penny or two or three
Her's is the cunnin' for men who come a runnin'
They all come for fun and it seems to me
That when she cried at night no one came
And when she cried at night went insane

Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window
Ooh it's a sunny day outside my window

Back when Cain was able
Way before the stable
Lighting struck right down from the sky
A mother ship with fate said let's give it a try

Conscience was related
Man he was created
Lady luck took him by surprise
A sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes

Well she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right

Even Eve in Eden
Voices tried deceiving
With lies that showed the lady the way
At first she stopped and turned and tried to walk away

Man he was believer
Lady was deceiver
So the story goes but you see
The snake was he and she just climbed right up his tree

So she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right

Whooooaaa......

Conscience was related
Man he was created
When lady luck took him by surprise
The sweet and bitter fruit it surely opened his eyes

Evil came like reignin
Who knows who's to blamin
Something tried to lay her to waste
And all she want and need was just a little taste

Whooa, she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Well she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right right

Well she ate it
Lordy it was love at first bite
Yeah she ate it
Never knowin wrong from right right

Oh that's right

Well there's a backseat lover who's always undercover
and I talked to my Dad he say
He said "You ain't seen nothin' till you're down on a muffin
Then you're sure to be a changin' your ways"
I met a cheerleader
Was a real young bleeder
All the times I could reminisce
'Cause the best things in lovin' with her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss like this!

Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air
I sing "Hey diddle diddle"
Put your kitty in the middle of the swing
Like you didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
And I knowed love was here to stay
When she told me to...

CHORUS
walk this way, talk this way, walk this way
talk this way,
Uh, just gimme a kiss!
Like this.

School girl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
Little skirt's climbin' way up her knee,
There was three young ladies in the school gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me.
I was a high school loser, never made it with the ladies
Till the boys told me somethin' I missed,
Then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
So I gave her just a little kiss a like this

Seesaw swingin' with the boys in the school
And your feet flyin' up in the air,
I sing "Hey diddle diddle"
Put your kitty in the middle of the swing
Like you didn't care.
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play,
Wasn't me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way.
She told me to

CHORUS

Got me the strangest woman
Believe me this trick's no cinch
But I really get her going
When I whip out my big ten inch

Record of a band that plays the blues
Well a band that plays its blues
She just love my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

Last night I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
She said now stop that jivin'
Now whip out your big ten inch

Record of a band that plays the blues
Well a band that plays the blues
She just loves my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

I, I, I cover her with kisses
And when we're in a lover's clinch
She gets all excited
When she begs for my big ten inch

Record of a band that plays the blues
Well a band that plays the blues
She just love my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

My girl don't go for smokin'
And liquor just make her flinch
Seem she'll go for nothin'
'Cept for my big ten inch

Record of a band that plays the blues
Band that play the blues
She just love my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion

You talk about things and nobody cares
You're wearing other things that nobody wears
You're calling my name but I gotta make it clear
I can't say baby where I'll be in a year

Some sweat hod mama with a face like a gent
Said, "My 'get up and go' must have got up and went"
Well I got good news, she's a real good liar
'Cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fire

Sweet emotion
Sweet emotion

I pulled into town in a police car
Your daddy said I took it just a little too far
You tellin' me things but your girlfriend lied
You can't catch me 'cause the rabbit done died
Yes it did

You stand in the front just a-shakin' your ass
I'll take you backstage, you can drink from my glass
I talk about something you can sure understand
'Cause a month on the road and I'll be eatin' from your hand

Uuuummmmm...uuhhh.....cha....

If you believe in me like I believe in you
You wouldn't be tellin' me things that weren't exactly true
Now everything changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin' and the love I been givin'
Would be sure to set you spinnin' witcha' feet never touchin' the ground
And I'm round and round

Well it was one for all and it was all for one
And everything that we did never bothered no one
Look here... now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
'Cause the life I been livin' and the love someone give me
Would be sure to set you spinnin' with you feet never touchin' the ground
And I'm round and round and round and round and round and round and round

Can you remember the days when you were sweet sixteen
And always caught in the blaze of someone else's dreams
Looky... now everythin' changes ain't nothin' the same
I'm gettin' the strangest feelin' I can't remember my name
I'm goin' round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round and round
And round

Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and...

You see me crying don't let it get'cha down
You see me crying I'm back to the lost and found
Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words that I said
Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words that I said

You see me crying say you're a ladies man
You see me crying I'm so hard to understand
Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words that I said
Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words that I said

You see me crying please say you'll stick around
And I got to be your lover honey let me take you to town
And I'll show you everything that I know
And I'll never ever let you down
'Cause my love is like a merry-go-round

Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words I said
Honey what'cha done to your head
Honey was the words I said

Aaahh...
