Gems

Take me, take me...

Take it or a-leave it on a saturday night
And what you see is what you get so give me a bite
Here are lots of ladies, they are so insecure
Leave it to the boys and the fool on the hill

Hello baby, yeah it's me
There'll be no judge, no third degree no jailbait
Play the fool and you play the punk
Wake up babe, i'm a-don't know jailbait

I believe in someone talkin'
Can't let go you don't get hold no jailbait
What it is, but you believe it
What you got, got up the sleeve and jailbait

(look here!)
Oh, j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-jailbait

Take it, leave it, roll the dice
You're hard as hell, i'm cold as ice no jailbait
Tell your daddy how you do me
Put the woodcheck, do it to me jailbait
What you see in daddy's eyes
Check the boys, no surprise no jailbait

Oh, j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-jailbait

Do me, do you, tell me what you see in me too
Do me, do you

I ain't complainin' the bitch's brew
There's a lover who never knew she's jailbait
Steep the chase, call the sweat
You steep the feet, oh gracer bed, oh jailbait

Oh, j-j-j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-jailbait
Oh, j-j-j-j-j-j-jailbait
J-j-j-j-j-j-j
Oh, j-j-j-j-jailbait....

Back when cane was able
Way before the stable
Lightning shot right out from the sky
A mothership with fith said
Let's give it a try

Conscience was related
Man, he was created
Lady luck took him by surprise
Her 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 for right, right, right, right

Even eve in eden
Voices tried deceivin'
With lies to show 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
She ate it
Never knowin' wrong for right, right, right

Science was related
Man, he was created
When lady luck took him by surprise
Her sweet and bitter fruits
Surely opened his eyes

Evil came like rain
And who knows who's to blame
And something tried to lay her to waste
And all she want to need was just a little taste

So, she ate it
Lordy, it was love at first bite
Yeah, she ate it
Never knowin' wrong for right, right, right, right
Well, she ate it
Lordy, it was love at first bite
Yeah, she ate it
Never knowing wrong from right, right,
Well that's right

Lord i must be dreaming
What else could this be
Everybody's screaming
Running' for the sea

Holy lands are sinking
Birds take to the sky
The prophets are all stinking drunk
I know the reason why

Eyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up to the knees
Out of rhyme or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lame

Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known it
Now he's blown it
Up-side down and hell's the only way
We did an awful job
And now they say it's nobody's fault

Old st. andres
Seven years ago
Shove it up their richters
Red light stop and go
Noble men of courage
Listen with their ears
Spoke but how discouraging
When no one really hears

One of these day's you'll be sorry
Too many houses on stilt
Three milion years or just a story
Four on the floor up to the hilt

(chorus)
Out of rhyme or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lame
Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry

Man has known it
Now he's blown it
Up-side down and hell's the only way
We did an awful job
And now we're just a little too late

Eyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up in debris

California showtime
Five o'clock's the news
Everybody's concubine
Was prone to take a snooze

Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known it
Now he's blown it
Up-side down and hell's the only way
We did an awful job
And now we're just a little too late

1971, we all heard the starter gun
New york is such a pity
But at max's kansas city we won

We all shot shit in the bar
With johnny o' toole and his scar
And then old clive davis said
He's surely gonna make us a star
I'm gonna make you a star
Just the way you are

But with all his style
I could see in his eyes
That we is goin' on trial
And it was no surprise

The boys kept kickin' ass
As usual time would tell
But some bitch in the choir
Threw water on the fires of hell
She loved to shove and tell
Lord, she loved to tell

But with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we is still on trial
And it was no surprise
No surprise
No surprise
No surprise

Midnight lady
Situation fetal
Vaccinate yo ass with yo phonograph needle

I say look it here
A friend of mine
Scratch like you need calomine
Flamingo boots, soles a creakin'
Still in love and puerto rican too

Ridin' on the wheels of hell
Smokin' in our axle grease
The backstage is rockin'
And we're copping from the local polica
That's right, the local police
Or the juctice of peace

But with all our style
You could see in our eyes
That we is still on trial
Baby, it's no surprise
No surprise
No surprise
No surprise

Rock n' roll, junkie whore
Got my foot inside the door
Knock knock, knock knock, knock
Nobody's keepin' score

Bad time go away
Come again some other day
Topaz and sazzafraz
Will keep the blues away

Candy store, rock n' roll
Corporation jelly roll
Play the singles, it ain't me
It's programmed with insanity

You ascap, if bmi
Could ever make a mountain fly
If japanese can boil teas
The where the fuck's my royalties

Johnny come late on a saturday night
Singin' how de do
Backstreet boogie in the house of delight
Where they steal the show
The money come sour but the ladies are sweet
Ad it's a love affair
Whole place rockin', people stompin' their feet
When the gang's all there

He gets his lovin' every night for free
He's out there rockin' like you wouldn't believe
Singin' na, na, na...

Johnny like to gamble with his lady louise
She was a black jack deuces are wild
He got to thinking 'bout his nose in the breeze
And johnny looked and he smiled
He started thinking 'bout the fortune and fame
And the young girls down at his knees
He dug the money but forgot all the names
So he knew just how to appease

(chorus)
Lick and a promise
Lick and a promise
Lick and a promise
(he gave the ladies a) lick and a promise

Loose change clover in his early, early years
Had his poor mama pacin' the floors
He grabbed a guitar and a couple of beers
Now the crowd keeps screamin' for more

(repeat chorus)

You act just like a primadonna
Playing so hard to get
Sittin' so cool and nochalant
Draggin' on a cigarette
You keep a wall all around you
I'll get through some day
I want your love babe
If push comes to shove
Gonna chip that wall away
(Chorus)
Chip away
Chip Away at The Stone
I won't stop 'til your love is my very own
Chip away
That's what I'm gonna do
Sweet little mama
I wanna get next to you
You stand like a marble statue
Trying to look so hard
All decked out in your antique dress
While the boys all promenade
Even a rock will crumble
If you strike it night and day
If hammer I must
I'm gonna get through your crust
Gonna Chip That Stone Away
(Repeat Chorus)
Chip it, I'm gonna nip it
All night long
