Sublime
Album - 30 luglio 1996 - Debaser id 104

We took this trip to Garden Grove
it smelt like Lou-dog inside the van, oh yeah
this ain't no funky reggae party five dollars at the door
it gets so real sometimes
who wrote my rhyme?
I've got the microwave, got the VCR.
I got the deuce-deuce
in the trunk of my car, oh yeah
if you only knew all the love that I found
It's hard to keep my soul on the ground
you're a fool, don't fuck around with my dog
all that I can see I steal I fill up my garage
'cuz in my mind music from Jamaica all the love that I found
pull over there's a reason why my souls unsound
it's you, it's that shit stuck under my shoe
it's that smell inside the van
it's my bed sheet covered with sand
sitting through a shitty band
gettin' dog shit on my hand
gettin' hassled by the man
wakin' up to an alarm
stickin' needles in the wrong
pickin' up trash on the freeway
feelin' depressed every day
leavin' with out makin' a sound
pickin' my dog up at the pound
livin' in a tweaker pad
gettin' yelled at by my dad
sayin' I'm happy when I'm not
findin' roaches in the pot
oh oh oh all these things I do
there waiting for you

Madness

Annie's 12 years old in two more she'll be a whore,
Nobody ever told her it's the wrong way.
Don't be afraid with the quickness you get laid, for your family get paid,
It's the wrong way.

I gave her all that I had to give,
I'm gonna make it hard to live.
Salty tears running down her chin,
And it ruins up her make up I never wanted.

A cigarette, pressed between her lips,
But I'm staring at her tits, it's the wrong way.
Strong if I can, but I am only a man,
So I take her to the can, it's the wrong way.

The only family that shes ever had,
Is her 7 horny brothers and her drunk-ass dad.
He needed money so he put her on the street,
Everything was going fine until the day that she met me.

Happy are you sad, wanna shoot your dad,
I'll do anything I can the wrong way.
We talked all night and tried to make it right,
Believe me shit was tight, it was the wrong way.

Don't run away if you wanna stay,
Cause I ain't here to make ya', oh no.
It's up to you what you really wanna do,
Spend some time in America, dub-style.

She'll give you all that she got to give,
But I'm gonna make it hard to live.
Big salty tears rolling down to her chin,
And they smear up her makeup i never wanted.

So we ran away and I'm sorry when I say,
That straight to this very day it was the wrong way.
She took a hike, don't matter if I like it or not,
Because she only wants the wrong way.

I gave her all that i had to give,
But she still wouldn't take it, oh no.
Her two brown eyes are leakin' like a sieve,
And it still ruins her makeup I never wanted.

Down in Mississippi where the sun beats down from the sky
they give it up and they give it up and they give it up
but they never ask why
daddy was a rolling rollin' stone oh whoa
he rolled away one day and he never came home ha ha ha
It ain't hard to understand this ain't Hitlers master plan
what it takes to be a man ooh in my mind in my brain
I'm rollin' over like a steamin' frieght train it ain't hard to ascertain
You only see what you want to believe
When you light up in the back with those tricks up your sleeve
that don't mean I can't hang
the day that I die will be the day that I shut my mouth and put down my guitar uh
Sunday morning hold church down at the bar
get down on your knees and start to pray oh whoa
pray my itchy rash will go away yow
now back up y'all it aint me Kentucky fried chicken is all I see
it's a hellified way to start your day
If I make you cry all night, me and daddy gonna have a fist fight
it ain't personal it ain't me
I only hear what you told me to be
I'm a backwards ass hillbilly I'm Dick Buttkiss
you know I lie I get mean I'm a thief in the dark
I'm a ragin' machine I'm a triple rectified ass son of a bitch
rec-tite(r) on my ass and it makes me itch
I can see for miles and miles and miles oh whoa
my broken heart makes me smile
In my mind in my brain I go back I go completly insane
it ain't personal, it ain't me
if I make you cry all night I'll be your daddy at the end of the night
take a load from my big gun
you only see what you want to believe
when you creep from the back I've got tricks up my sleeve
24/7 devil's best friend
makes no difference it's all same in the end...

[I don't know if you can, but can you get an order for Ons, that's O-N-S,
Junior Market, the address is 1934 East Aneheim, all the windows are
busted out, and it's like a free-for-all in here and uh the owner should
at least come down here and see if he can secure his business-
if he wants to]

April 26th, 1992
There was a riot on the streets
Tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was participating in some anarchy

First spot we hit it was my liquor store
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford
With red lights flashin' time to retire
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire.

Next stop we hit it was the music shop
It only took one brick to make that window drop
Finally we got our own p.a.
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today? ey!

[Call fire at ??? mobile station at Alamedas and Anahiem,
its, ah, flaming up good]
[10-4 Alamedas and Anahiem]
Homicide, never doin' no time!

When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
So once again we filled the van until it was full
Since that day my livin' room's been more comfortable
Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here
It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year
Some kids went in a store with their mother
I saw her when she came out she was gettin some pampers
They said it was for the black man,
they said it was for the mexican
And not for the white man
But if you look at the streets
It wasn't about Rodney King
It's bout this fucked up situation and these fucked up police
It's about coming up
And staying on top
And screamin' 187 on a mother fuckin' cop
It's not written on the paper it's on the wall
National guard??!
Smoke from all around!

[Units- Units be advised of an attempt 211 to arrest now at 938 Temple, 9-3-8
Temple, many subjects with bats trying to get inside the CB's
house...they're trying to kill him]
As long as I'm alive, I'm a live illegal.

I don't practice Santeria,

Well I had a million dollars but I'd,
I'd spent it all
If I could find that Heina
And that Sancho that she's found

Tell Sanchito that if he knows what is good for him
He'd best go run and hide,
Daddy's got a new .45
And I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down Sancho's throat
Believe me when I say that I got something for his punk ass!
What I really wanna know, my baby
Oooh, what I really wanna say is there's just one
Way back and I'll make it, yeah
My soul will have to wait.
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Swift street, street and the Mitchell's clove
big steamer went fishin' wish you were a trout
Brass Mountain gets so hollow when two dudes paddle out
A huge summer time south swell hits me under my hotel

Mucho gusto me llamo Bradley,
(glad to meet you my name is Bradley)
I'm hornier than Ron Jeremy,
And if you wanna get popped in your knee,
Just wipe that look off your button face

You hate me cause I got what you need,
A pretty little daughter that we call mixie, and,
If you wanna get beat physically
It will be over in a minute if ya ((live: fuck wit me))

So she told me to come over and I took that trip
And then she pulled out my mushroom tip
And when it came out, it went drip drip drip
I didn't know she had the G.I. Joe, kung fu grip

And it went - uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound- it went uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound

When I kiss mixie she makes me feel horny,
Cause I'm the type of lover with the sensitivity,
When she kiss my neck and tickle me fancy,
The right kind of love on sunday morning.

En el otro lado es donde viví,
(on the other side is where I lived )
Con mi hijita, que se llama mixie,
(with my little daughter, who's name is mixie)
Y su hermana, si me querré,
(and her sister, she really likes me)
Y ya horita, tenemos un bebe,
(and in a moment, we'll have a baby)

Sus padres sus tios me trataron matar
(Her parents, her uncles tried to kill me)
But they did not get too far
Un poco despues tuvé que regresar
(a little while later I had to come back)
Con un chingo de dinero
(with a shit load of money)
Cause you know I'm a star

Me fui a costa rica
(I went to costa rica)
Para tomar y surfear
(to drink and surf)
Placticaba con la raza
(I chatted with the race [locals])
Cause they know who we are

Si no le dió cuenta
(if you didn't notice)
Then I bet you never will
You must be a muñeca
(you must be a doll)
If your still standing still

And it went - uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound- it went uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound

Me gusta mi reggae,
(I like my reggae)
Me gusta punk rock,
(I like punk rock)
Pero la cosa que me gusta mas es panochita,
(but the thing I like most is pussy)

Pon la nalga en la aire if you know who you are,
(put your ass cheek in the air if you know who you are)
Pon la nalga en la aire y empieza gritar,
(put your ass cheek in the air and start to yell)

No tenga miedo, I'm your papi,
(don't be scared, I'm your daddy.)
Take your chones, y los manden a mi,
(take your panties and send them to me)
Levanta, levanta, tienes que gritar,

Levanta, levanta, tienes que bailar.
(get up, get up, you have to dance)

And it went - uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound- it went uhh
And the girl caress me down- uhh
And thats that lovin sound

Early in the mornin'
Risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I'll strap shoes on my feet
Got to find the reason, the reason things went wrong
Got to find the reason why my money's all gone
I got a dalmation, I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a motherfuckin' riot

Well life is too short so love the one you got
Cuz you might get run over and you might get shot
Never had a battle with my bulletproof vest
Never start static gots to get it off my chest
Take a small example... a tip from me
Take all of your money give it off to charity-ty-ty-ty
Love's what I got, it's within my reach
The SUBLIME style still straight from Long Beach
It comes back to you your gonna get what you deserve
try and test that, you' re bound to get served
love's what I got don't start a riot
you feel it when the dance gets hot (hot)

Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that

Well I don't cry when my dog runs away
I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don't get angry when my mom smokes pot
hits the bottle and goes right to the rocks
Fuckin' and fightin' its all the same
Livin' with louie dogs the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin', let the lovin' come back to me...

Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
Lovin' is what I got, I said remember that
I got, I got, I got, I got...

Chorus:
Doing time and the livings easy
Bradley's on the microphone with ras M.G
All the people in the dance will agree that
We're well qualified to represent the LBC
G, me and Louie
Run to the party, dance to the rhythm
It gets harder

Me and my girl, we got this relationship
I love her so bad, but she treats me like shit
All locked down like a penitentiary
She spreads her lovin all over and when she gets home,
There's none left for me

Chorus

Oh take this veil from off my eyes
My burning sun will someday rise
what am I gonna be doing for a while
Said I'm gonna play with myself
Show them now we've come off the shelf.. so what

Chorus

Evil, I've come to tell you that she's evil
Most definitely
Evil, ornery, scandalous and evil
Most definitely
The tension is getting harder
I'd like to hold her head underwater, oh

Me and my girl
We got a relationship x4

Chorus fade to instrumental.
