"Viper gonna get'cha.....
release date to be announced
Aint gonna be your handyman...
i aint gonna be your handyman baby
an i aint gonna mend your fence
the way you keep battin' them eyes
it just don't make no sense
you just keep comin' on baby
actin' like theres gonna be more
but when you invite me over sugar
you say can ya fix my door
aint gonna be your chauffeur baby
get tired a drivin' you around
you always got somethin ta do
and it seems ta be way cross town
your voice is so gentle and sweet
and soundin' like ya really care
but if a better ride come along
i bet you'd just leave me there
took some time to re-assess
think i'll stay self employed
everyone ever work for you
has had their lives destroyed
rivers run wild some run deep
murmur the stories they tell
some find joy on this earth
you made mine a living hell
aint gonna be your doctor baby
an diagnose all them ills
ya ruined your life long ago
by swallowin' all them pill's
you lookin' ta me for an excuse
jus' ta get another script
can't take all that acid honey
then say ya never tripped
aint gonna be your lover baby
like the chace ever comes along
every time we get close enough
your tenderness seems long gone
every time i try ta talk ta you
ya twist every word i said
then when night comes along
ya twist me outta your bed
try ta work with with ya got
gotta do the best that ya can
but after an hour spent with you
i feel like a wasted man
heard it told the story it goes
she says her thighs are paved with gold
but after a lifetime a climbin' that road
well all i feel is old
New York city woman
Took a stroll down the avenue
thought I'd go see me a thing or two
had no idea just what i'd find
when I heard sweet music come up from behind
I turned around and it blew my mind..cause was just a woman”
(...ya there I was at the age a 3 hitch hikin' my way up ta new york city after readin an article in newsweek magazine bout some guy who discovered some kinda mind expandin' drug they was callin' LSD so when I got to city I found me some an I...)
I took some acid and then I tripped
just as my grasp of reality slipped
I had this vision goin' make me blind
about this woman I had to find
stirrin up strange ideas in my mind..“ was there a woman
(..well stayin' with them hippies up in the village all we ever did was drugs in the mornin',drugs in the afternoon in fact we'd do drugs jus ta pass out so's we could do more drugs an well after a while we did every drug in new york city an after a whle ya start runnin' out an you know what happens then...)
was getting shakey and needed more
so I grab some cash and went to score
waiting at the corner,you know what for
when I saw this girl come out an alley door
was it the same one I had seen before...or a different woman”
(..oh I don't know ya ever seen that sci-fi channel bout 3 in the mornin' with that guy with the freekish hair stikin' straight out an he's takin' the tops off a heads an stirrin'em up an askin'em ta speak japanesse..well I figured after that i'd do what I know best an so I...)
took all the drugs I could buy
cause i thought it'd be enough to get me high
but all I did was wonder why
I don't give an overdose another try
i might just see this woman when I die what woman
Bosa Nova...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can't stroll back up the avenue
cause i just rammed up a grahm or two
now i know just what i'll find
when I hear that music come up from behind
it just means thse drugs have blown my mind.....cause there was no woman'
Hitman a fashion
Walkin' by him on the street
he'd never catch your eye
but when he put on that brooks brothers suit
with that hugo boss tie
it's just as sure as winkin'
that some body is about ta die..
He's just tryin' ta make a livin'
strugglin' like all the rest
aint the judge a no one
but some don't pass the test
an if he comes ta kill ya
at least he's really well dressed
Never seems to be outta work
theres always one more hit
and bein' a hit man a fashion
the job seamed a perfect fit
now he's the one they call
cause they know he'll take care of it..
never seemed to matter much
didn't wanted ta know why..
learned that from gerome
as he watched the first one die
ya that was the very same day
he got that suit and tie
and up in chicago
it was one mans time ta go
followed him to a night club
let him watch the show
an then left him there a dyin'
yeah in the 2nd row
then there was that hit
in miami F.L.A.
borrowed money from the mob
then refused to pay
buried the guy in fresh concrete
an now he's there to stay
and once way back east
some woman had a gambelin' debt
had a talk with the husband
in a way they won't forget
said he had ta kill em' both
if she placed another bet
yeah a hit man a fashion
this you certainly can't deny
an if you happen to see him
best be askin yourself why
what kinda trouble ya caused
where a man like you might die
he takes his job very seriously
you can see it in his eye
an when he puts on that brooks brothers suit
with that hugo boss tie
it's as sure as the night going dark
some body gonna die..
Atlantic city bound.....
big hat fat cat, rollin' into town
cheap black suit, got at the lost an found
gonna steal me a car, so I can drive around
take this city, turn it upside down
I aint the king, but I wear his crown
oh i used ta be
(chorus)
when I go, I aint no square
when I leave a tip, no it' aint whats fair
really need a flush, but only got a pair
aint got a dime, sayin' i'm a millionaire
but i'll play the movie star, whenever i'm there
i'm actin' like one but i used to be
(chorus)
got me a phone, but no one to call
had everything once, but I lost it all
when you're a looser, how fast you fall
got no place now, for me to stay
but behind that dumpster, up the alley way
i'm a derilct now but i used ta be
(chorus)
was just a fake, who made a mistake
ya i rolled the dice , for one last take
but i borrowed the dough,and how did i know
that if i didn't pay, that i'd be found
chopped up dead, an six feet underground
i'm all in pieces now but i used ta be
(chorus)
get my meal's, whenever there's one to steal
nickle in my hand, saying it's a hundred grand
i'll do you're crime , but not you're time
no that aint no truth , an that aint a lie
I tried to cheat'em ,now I know i'm goona die
i'm all dead now, but i used to be....
a gmblin' man, not one to believe
with cards in my hand and one up my sleeve
i tried to cheat and tried to rob
how was i ta know it was from the mob
Viper gonna get'cha
Sweat was breakin' him into the night
always plays that same ol' tune
lookin' into that crystal ball
sees the end is comin' soon
up out down ta the street
walkin' among the livin' dead
hearin' that voice over an over
searin' the line into his head
them memories never go away
scracthin' at the edge of insane
don't matter it wasn't his fault
but he took the pain just the same
was just a simple road trip
we was tryin' for a little break
stopped ta get our fortune told
turned out ta be our last mistake
gypsy woman screamed in that frenzied shout
viper gonna get you.........gonna get you...
gypsy woman sayin' there aint no doubt
viper gonna get you.......gonna get you..
wife was shakin' as we left that place
aint no way ta calm her down
so we got a bottle a booze
got drunk in the car outside a town
moonlit night cruisin' some back road
woman n I started feelin' fine
pair a bright lights comin on
forced us off when they crossed the line
we rolled over at least 3 times
was tossed from the car into the brush
wife was thrown into a clearing
I started laughin' was kind of a rush
thats when i heard her she was in some pain
thats when I found I couldn't move
there was nothin' ta do as I watched
the whole sceene seemed so smooth
viper came out slither thru the grass
an was gonna attack...gonna attack
viper took my baby away aint
never comin back...aint comin back
I heard them gypsy's word ring out
saw it all in that crystal ball
viper came took my woman away
I still hear her desperate call
how could it end here today
still don't think I believe it all
i'd give anything i got
ta get her outta that crystal ball.
