"Otherside"
Chorus:
How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I dont
I dont believe its bad
Slit my throat
Its all I ever
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
Ive got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
Ive got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on
Chorus
Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtrays full and Im spillin my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
Ive got to take it on the otherside
Scarlet starlet and shes in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread
Ive got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on
Chorus
Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that
Its not my friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then its born again
Chorus
How long I dont believe its bad
Slit my throat
Its all I ever
"Californication"
Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your minds elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen quotations
And if you want these kind of dreams
Its Californication
Its the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
Its understood that Hollywood
Sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is that war your waging
Chorus:
First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication
Marry me girl be my fairy to the world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
Its Californication
Space may be the final frontier
But its made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderons not far away
Its Californication
Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population everybodys been there and
I dont mean on vacation
Chorus
Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girls guitar
Theyre just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldnt save the world
From Californication
Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest
There is no test
But this is what youre craving
Chorus
"One Hot Minute"
I was riding
Riding on my bike
Me with my friend
We're so alike
Am I all alone
She said all we
Have is this
We just had to stop
And share a kiss
Am I all alone
One hot minute
And I'm in it come and get it (3 times)
If I chase it
I might waste it
Come and get it
Am I all alone
Sitting in the fire
Get along and have some fun
Floating to be higher
Maybe I'm your special one
Silent testifier
Breathe the moon
And eat the sun
Sitting in the fire
A tiny wink is all
All we have
No it's not much more
But don't get mad
Am I all alone
Close your eyes
And click your heels
Can you believe
How good it feels
Am I all alone
One hot minute
And I'm in it come and get it (3 times)
If I chase it I might waste it
Come and get it
Am I all alone
Three lbs. of love
Inside my skull
A million more lives
It's never dull
Just a few times spun
Spun around the sun
A couple more or less
And then we're done
"Soul to Squeeze"
And it's very sweet.
I'm on a rollercoaster,
but I'm on my feet.
Take me to the river,
Let me on your shore.
I be coming back baby,
I be coming back for more.
Doo doo doo doo dingle zing a dong bone,
ba-di ba-da ba-zumba crunga cong gone bad,
like an apple gift but i went out and never said my pleasures
I'm much better but I won't regret it never
Where I go I just dont't know,
I got to, got to, gotta take it slow.
When I find my piece of mind,
I'm gonna give you some of my good time.
Where I go I just don't know,
I might end up somewhere in Mexico.
When I find my piece of mind,
I'm gonna keep for the end of time!
"Scar Tissue
Scar tissue that I wish you saw. Sarcastic mister know it all. Close your eyes and Ill kiss you cause. With the birds Ill share, with the birds Ill share this lonely view.
With the birds Ill share, this lonely view. Push me up against the wall, young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra. Fallin all over myself, to lick your heart and taste your health. 'Cause with the birds Ill share, this lonely view . . .
Blood loss in a bathroom stall, Southern girl with a scarlet drawl. Wave good-bye to ma and pa cause. With the birds Ill share, with the birds Ill share this lonely view. With the birds Ill share, this lonely view.
Soft spoken with a broken jaw, step outside but not to brawl. Autumns sweet we call it fall. Ill make it to the moon if I have to crawl and, with the birds I'll share this lonely view . . .
Scar tissue that I wish you saw. Sarcastic mister know it all. Close your eyes and Ill kiss you cause. With the birds Ill share, with the birds I'll share this lonely view.
With the birds Ill share, this lonely view . . .
"Gong Li"
Some people say you hate me, I don't believe it's true, things that you're going through.
Some people say you hate me, I don't believe it's you, things that you're going through.
Some people sad I pray for. No one you want to live, the eyes that once were his. Some people sad I pray for, the way you want to live, they eyes you want to give.
Some people say you played me, I don't care if it's true, I'm waiting here for you. Some people say you made it, I'm not afraid to know, when things are getting low. Some people say you hate me, I don't believe it's true, things that you're going through. Some people say you hate me, I don't believe it's you, things that you're going through.
"What It Is"
Give it up to this time full of strife. Get down, you might be ****ing with the song of life. Extend your deeper senses, there will be no fight. At the never ending ocean of perfect insights. 'Round your molecule beam with a halo of light. The animated aura will give delight. Soon, your every single worry will be out of sight.
With the power of It, we are about to astound. All your preconceptions, they will come unbound. "Listen very close," my inner voice expounds. "We are the human race, and we groove to the sound". Yes, we deliver the truth to our musical birth. A soul shocking sound with electrify the earth. People have to know that it's not about money. Cash is not the way to make your life sunny. There is no need if you got the soul seed.
Love, life and peace, it can only begin. When you know in your heart that the change is within. Love all your brothers and love all your sisters. Love all the missus and love all the misses. And don't be shy when you're sharing your kisses. Greed, jealousy gets boos and hisses.
What it is, what it is, so much to be found. What it is, what it is, groove down to the sounds. What it is, what it is, what it is in a song. What it is, what it is, you can do no wrong.
Balance your life with the right kind of foods. To eat a sad cow is to eat another you.
Well, that's an unfair rap, it's unforgivably rude. It'll put your Karma in the worst of moods. Someone's drinking booze and taking too many ludes. 'Cause when you cop, don't you cop an attitude. And that's an ugly thing, it's not the real you. So please y'all, take some sound advice. Be yourself, clear your mind, make a sacrifice. The always sober you is especialy nice.
Don't loot, don't shout, give comet the boot. I love it kickin' back and playin' my bamboo flute. Refuse to fight wars for political *****s. Unsurpassed peace lines the salt water shores. It is my notion that the perfect peace potion, can be found in the wake of the green sea ocean. The long rocky swells of the mighty blue ocean, is the cradle of peace, it's the perfect peace potion. There you will find it, with sweet sea creatures.
The smile of a dolphin is a built-in feature. We will learn much peace will the whale as your teacher. "Good morning class, how very nice to meet you"
What it is, what it is, so much to be found. What it is, what it is, groove down to the sounds. What it is, what it is, what it is in a song. What it is, what it is, you can do no wrong.
Open up your hearts to the planets; to the stars. With your spirit take a trip from Venus to Mars. You know, Einstein did while Hitler hid. Now, Albert lives forever in every single kid. But, with Adolph Hitler, we are permanently rid. Picasso, Mister Dali and my man, Jimi Hendrix. These cool brothers make the world go 'round. Yeah, they do it with art, and Jimi did it with sound. But, by all these men, it was found. Each and every person can be just as renowned. Don't let the world's racist creeds give your pretty face a frown. Stand up for equal rights, I mean buckle down. Go spread the word from town to town. We are the human race and we groove to the sounds.
Now that you've heard what it is in a song. From here on in, you can do not wrong.
"Walkabout"
I think I'll go on a walkabout. And find out what it's all about. Just me and my own two feet. In the heat I've got myself to meet. A detective of perspective I need to try to get a bigger eye. I could learn the art of life. On a walk I could find a wife. On a walkabout.
You could do it in the city. You could do it in a zone. You could do it in a dessert.
You could do the unknown, on a walkabout.
High desert skies are what I spy. So fly - you've got to wonder why. The stingrays must be fat this year. Moving slow in my lowest gear. The digirido original man with a dream.
I believe the Aborigine, on a walkabout.
You could do it with a shuffle. You could do it with a stroll. You could do it with a stride. You could do it all alone, on a walkabout.
I've been sitting far too long. At home - I've got to get along. A walk could cure most all my blues, bare feet or in my two shoe. Bloodwood flowers in my gaze. Walkabout in a sunny daze, on a walkabout.
I think I'll go on a walkabout. Find out what it's all about. Just me and my own two feet, in the heat I've got myself to meet. Use your legs to rock it wide. Take a ride to the other side.
