this perfect life ...
i still have the instrumental
version
.of this song .
i haven’t seen the studio version
with my vocals on it in awhile...)
again you feel cheated
put down and miss treated
finding that place
in your life
where everything’s perfect
you don’t have to worship
at
the alter of a prefect life
more than you can bear
it follows you so
something you should share
but where does it go
this perfect life
this perfect heart
this perfect world
all falls apart
this perfect thought
this perfect day
this perfect love
all cast away
again you feel lonely
apart and unholy
no where to set
in this life
where everything’s moving
and not of your choosing
it’s changing so fast
I get tired
(chorus) (solo) (chorus) (fade)
=============================
My magic is love baby
My magic is love baby my magic is you
My magic is love baby I’ll give it all to you
They say , I’ve got the second sight
That I can see the future
And I know what might
They say , I’ve got the second sight
But I don’t do voodoo!
(chorus)
I’ll do my own cooking and go to the store
I promise I wont use my powers no more
To see who’s calling at my door
I promise I wont use my powers no more
(chorus)
Because I was blessed by the powers above
With the power of good with the power of love
I want you to love me I want you to care
But not if I’ve got to put the spell there
(solo)
I’ll meet you in your dreams tonight girl
I’ll meet you where your dreams come true
I’ll meet you in your dreams tonight girl
And make sweet love to you
I’ll cross the mountains and the sea
In a world of fantasy
I’ll cross the mountains and the sea
To be with you tonight
(chorus)(fade)

ONLY THE POOR CAN BE HAPPY
.........................
pretty birds flashing
and road runners dashing
in and out of cars
Making their way
Thru the day
Sleeping beneath the stars
Pimps and hutlers run this town
City cops seeing it all go down
people packed
into one room shacks
and ten year old junkies
taking smack
well. i'm gonns get out
yeah i'm gonna get free
don't want nobody
stepping on me
This aint no life
Time to choose
Wont get nowhere
from singing the blues
(solo)
The runaways are running
and the flyaway’s are flying
On the outside looking in
Making their was thru the day
Life in the city of sin
life in the city ,
it’s hard to survive
Harder still
to make it out alive

I was scratching lottery tickets
And drinking a beer
Cruising down the highway
Without a care
because it’s my car!
The party never ends
.it’s not just the beer,
They’re my best friends
It’s my life ,
Gonna live it right
In my car ,
Morning ,noon ,and night
It’s my life ,
Gonna party down
In my car ,
Driving round and round
Gonna keep driving ,
Driving down the high way
Living life, living it my way
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Because it’s my life,
Driving round this block
I was scratching lottery tickets
And smoking some weed
Cruising down the highway
Where ever it lead
because it’s my car!
The party is here to stay
.it’s not just the drugs
It’s the tunes, I play
It’s my life ,
Gonna live it right
In my car ,
Morning ,noon ,and night
It’s my life ,
Gonna party down
In my car ,
Driving round and round
Gonna keep driving ,
Driving down the high way
Living life, living it my way
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Because it’s my life,
Driving round this block
I hit something,
But I don’t know what
So I kept driving
It must have been a rut
I heard the sirens
But they drove right past
So I leaned over
And took another blast
scratching lottery tickets
And doing some lines
Cruising down the highway
Totally out of my mind
because it’s my car!
The party never ends
.it’s not just the lines
They’re my best friends
It’s my life ,
Gonna live it right
In my car ,
Morning ,noon ,and night
It’s my life ,
Gonna party down
In my car ,
Driving round and round
Gonna keep driving ,
Driving down the high way
Living life, living it my way
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Gonna keep driving,
Never gonna stop
Because it’s my life,
Driving round this block
(((((((
Battle rapps blasting,
Battle rapps blasting,
blazed up and weeded , headed for a fight
They been asking for trouble, gonna get it tonight
In a hail of bullets, gonna take the down
And then everybody will know
Who owns this town
You make us , an enemy, you’re gonna pay the price
For crossing the line aint gonna be nice
Tonight’s the night , gonna set things right
Tonight’s the night , gonna set things right
Battle rapps blasting, don’t you know
Blazed up and weeded, ready set go
Battle rapps blazing, can’t you see
Blazed up and weeded, don’t blame me
Battle rapps blasting,
Battle rapps blasting,
Battle rapps blasting,
No more talking , time to let the bullets speak
You disrespect us, put you down six feet
No more messing round , time to let the bullets fly
You disrespect me , someone’s gonna die
In a hail of bullets,
gonna set things right
Ten thousand intown ultra mods, going down tonight
When the hammer strikes , bullets gonna yell
Hear your mane calling, going straight to hell
Battle rapps blasting, don’t you know
Blazed up and weeded, ready set go
Battle rapps blazing, can’t you see
Blazed up and weeded, don’t blame me
Battle rapps blasting,
Battle rapps blasting,
Battle rapps blasting,
Didn’t mean to kill no kid
Splatter the enemy, that’s all I did
Where the bullets land, that aint my fault,
When some one disses me, I’m gonna assault
30 to life , now where’s my right
Throw away the keys, turn out the lights
He wasn’t nobody, just a kid!
30 to life! For what I did?
Battle rapps blasting, don’t you know
Blazed up and weeded, ready set go
Battle rapps blazing, can’t you see
Blazed up and weeded, don’t blame me
Battle raps blasting,
Battle raps blasting,
Battle raps blasting,
Johnny held his stomach,
in shocked disbelief
As he coughed up blood
And a little meat
Just a wasted life, a broken jewel
The poor forgotted broken fool
Johnny was just a loser , caught in the heat
He was just too scared to run
When the bullet did speak
He feltso tired that he layed down
And closed hi eyes , without a sound
no calling it back, once the bullet flys
Because tonight’s the night this kid will die
In a hail of bullets, he’s gonna pay the price
For getting caught in the line
Now 30 to life , is what I’m looking at
Ruin two lives! Now where’s that at?
30 to life , I got no rights
Throw away the keys, turn out the lights
Battle rapps blasting, don’t you know
Blazed up and weeded, ready set go
Battle rapps blazing, can’t you see
Blazed up and weeded, don’t blame me
Battle rapps blasting, don’t you know
Blazed up and weeded, ready set go
Battle rapps blazing, can’t you see
Blazed up and weeded, don’t blame me
Battle raps blasting,
Battle raps blasting,
Battle raps blasting,

Hold her close.
You’d better believe.
Hold her close.
Treat her right.
By her side day and night.
Prettiest girl , I’d ever seen .
Hair so red , eyes so green.
In the night like a dream, .
Dancing on tangerine.
keep on dancing till the break of day.
turn it up let the music play.
everybodies dancing on the scene.
but they're all watching tangerine.
the only time she feels the love.
is when she's dancing at the club.
Hair so red eyes so green.
Prettiest girl , I’d ever seen .
The only time she’s in control.

In the night like a dream.
dancing on tangerine.
keep on dancing till the break of day.
turn it up let the music play.
everybodies dancing on the scene.
but they're all watching tangerine.
