SAME OLD SONG AND DANCE (Tyler/Perry)

Get yourself cooler, lay yourself low

Coincidental murder, with nothing to show

when the judge's constipation go to his head

and his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

gotcha with the cocaine they found with your gun

[ alt: shady lookin' loser, you played with my gun ]

no smoothy face laywer to getcha undone

say love ain't the same on the south side of town

you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

it's the same old story, same old story

same old song and dance

 

fate comes a-knockin', doors start lockin'

your old time connection, change your direction

ain't gonna change it, can't rearrange it

can't stand the pain when it's all the same to you, my friend

 

when you're low down and dirty, from walkin' the street

with your old hurdy-gurdy, no one to meet

say love ain't the same, on the south side of town

you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

it's the same old story, same old story

same old song and dance

 

 

LORD OF THE THIGHS (Tyler)

 

Down to who knows who, just to socialize.

I'm waiting for my girls, when you call my eyes.

You got no way to make a man honey,

You got to understand.

I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.

 

Well, well, Lordie my God,

What do we got here?

She's flashin' 'cross the floor,

Make it perfectly clear.

You're the bait, and you're the hook,

Someone 'bound to take a look.

I'm your man, child. Lord of the Thighs.

 

You musta come here to find me,

You've got the look in your eyes.

Although you really don't mind me

I am the Lord of your Thighs!

You musta come here to find me baby,

You've got the look in your eyes.

Although you really don't mind it -

I am the Lord of your Thighs!

 

SPACED (Tyler/Perry)

 

Spaced in time

child of nine

doin' twenty years on the way

fire and steel

earth unreal

find another planet to stay

papa died

ma survived

tellin' me about her ordeal

and the soul she could not feel

'cause it made her so unreal

lightnin' years

disappears

twenty million years on my brain

synthesize

overrides

tryin' to keep from goin' insane

and my soul I can not feel

'cause they made me so unreal

 

spaced enough to know I feel there's nothin' out there

spaced enough to know I feel I really don't care

spaced enough to feel I'm really losin' my mind

and I'm never never never never ever goin' back

I'm off the track

no one even knows I'm alive

spaced

without a trace

waitin' for the word to arrive

I'm the last man to survive

 

WOMAN OF THE WORLD (Tyler/Don Solomon)

 

Well she's a woman of the world, and God she knows it

she'll turn my head every time she shows it

yeah, nothin' you could do, nothin' you could say

no way you can try to change her way

she might be gone tomorrow, honey say what you gotta say

lordy lordy lordy lordy what a woman

???????????????????

Lord I tried I tried I tried so hard to please her

she'd give me a look if I beg and tease her

yeah, there's nothin' you can say, nothin' you can do

no way you can try to coochie coo

she might be gone tomorrow, oh lordy what you gonna do?

 

and I tried with an open hand and a heart of sorrow

hoped that everything would be alright alright alright

don't save too much lovin' for tomorrow

get out all your lovin' here tonight

 

and I tried with an open hand and a heart of sorrow

hoped that everything would be alright alright alright alright

don't save too much lovin' for tomorrow

get out all your lovin' here tonight

 

she got big-eyed cats, she got coats of sable

she seats forty-four at her dinner table

and there's nothin' you can do, nothin' you could say

no way you can try to change her way

she might be gone tomorrow, oh throwin' it all away

 

S.O.S. (TOO BAD) (Tyler)

 

Stagecoach lady, hourglass body

Smaking things glow in the night

well, she would if she could, and she'd be good if she wouldonly

tell her lover she be out tonight

'cause I'm a bad

a lonely school boy

and I'm a rat

and it's too bad, can't get me none of that!

Salt Lake City, salt-lickin' bitties

bogus honey stinkin' of gin

well my daddy was hard, his face was pretty scarred

from kickin' ass and playin' poker to win

'cause I'm a bad

lonely school boy

and I'm a rat

and it's too bad, can't get me none of that!

it's too bad

 

and it's too bad

can't get me none of that!

loose old lady

my mama Katey

chivalry was born at her feet

well she shoulda thought twice

when pa showed his dice

the night she put my daddy to sleep

'cause I'm a bad

lonely school boy

and I'm a rat

and it's too bad, can't get me none of that!

It's too bad

Lord, it's too bad

I said it's too bad

Lord, it's too bad

I said it's too bad

It's too bad

You know it's too bad

It's too bad

 

TRAIN KEPT A ROLLIN'

(Tim Bradshaw/Lois Mann/Howie Kay)

 

Well, on a train, I met a dame,

She rather handsome, we kinda looked the same

She was pretty, from New York City

I'm walkin' down that old fair lane,

I'm in heat, I'm in love,

But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

With a heave!, and a ho!

But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

 

Well, get along, sweet little woman get along

On your way, get along, sweet little woman get along

On your way,

I'm in heat, I'm in love,

But I just couldn't tell her so, no, no, no

On your way,

I'm in heat, I'm in love,

But I just couldn't tell her

 

Well, we made a stop in Albuquerque

She must'a thought I was a real cool jerk

Got off the train, and put her hands up

Lookin' so good I couldn't let her go

But I just couldn't tell her so

I said, train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

Train kept a-rollin' all night long

I'm in heat, I'm in love,

But I just couldn't tell her

 

SEASONS OF WITHER (Tyler)

 

Blues hearted lady, sleepy was she

love for the devil brought her to me

seas of a thousand drawn to her sin

seasons of wither holdin' me in

 

oooh woe is me, I feel so badly for you

oooh woe is me, I feel so sadly for you in time

bound to lose your mind

live on borrowed time

take the wind right out of your sail

 

fireflies dance in the heat of

hound dogs that bay at the moon

my ship leaves in the midnight

can't say I'll be back too soon

they awaken, far far away

heat of my candle show me the way

seas of a thousand drawn to her sin

seasons of wither holdin' me in

 

oooh woe is me, I feel so badly for you

oooh woe is me, I feel so sadly for you in time

bound to lose your mind

live on borrowed time

take the wind right out of your sail

 

PANDORA'S BOX (Tyler/Kramer)

 

When I'm in heat and someone gets a notion

I jump to my feet, I hoof it to the ocean

we hit a beach where no one give a hoot

nobody never ever wears a suit

the ladies there, they look so proud

that's cause they know that their so well endowed

now I ain't much on Fannie's conversation

or care too much about her operation

 

but every time Pandora come my way

I get high, can't explain the sensation

to get it on I got to watch what I say

or I'll catch hell from the women's liberation

 

sweet Pandora

godlike aura

smellin' like a flora

open up your door for me

sweet Pandora

godlike aura

smellin' like a flora

open up your door for me

sweet Pandora

mama crack a smile for me

just for me, just for me...

 

now I ain't what you'd call a city slicker

or claim to fame to be a slitty licker

but every time Pandora come my way

I get high, can't explain the sensation

to get it on I got to watch what I say

or I'll catch hell from the women's liberation

 

sweet Pandora

godlike aura

smellin' like a flora

open up your door for me

sweet Pandora

godlike aura

smellin' like a flora

open up your door for me

sweet Pandora

mama crack a smile for me

just for me, just for me...
