They say it comes in threes; love, hope and misery
And the first two have gone and tell me if I’m wrong
I hope that I am and you don’t hate me
Don’t be mad, I’m just a man
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know
And I know, and I know that you must hate me
Holding back the reasons not to love you
Try to find the way
But when you’re feeling down and lonely
It makes it hard to say
Rock me on the water
Sister will you soothe my fevered brow
Rock me on the water, maybe I’ll remember
Maybe I’ll remember how
Rock me on the water
The wind is with me now
So rock me on the water
I’ll get down to the sea somehow
But this ain’t no dream we’re living out through the night
And, girl, you want it, you take it, you pay the price to
Prove it all night, prove it all night
Prove it all night girl and call the bluff
We prove it all night, prove it all night
Girl, I prove it all night for your love
Josie’s on a vacation far away
Come around and talk it over
So many things that I want to say
You know I like my girls a little bit older
I just want to use your love tonight
I don’t want to lose your love tonight
We’re gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Josie comes home
We’re gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Josie comes home to stay
We’re gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Josie comes home
I’d like to change the world
It’s easier than changing me
And I’d like to find one girl who knows me
Strum bang the drum around or put it down
And figure out if I’m out of line
Sit around and figure out if I’m wasting time
Wait for the sign, it’s time to shine, shine, shine
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And every single person is a Slim Shady lurking
He could be working at Burger King, spitting on your onion rings
Or in the parking lot, circling
Screaming “I don’t give a fuck!”
With his windows down and his system up
So, will the real Shady please stand up?
And put one of those fingers on each hand up?
And be proud to be outta your mind and outta control
And one more time, loud as you can, how does it go?
The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud
With all the other pigs, hey
Singing one more time around might do it
One more time around might make it
One more time around I might do it
One more time around I might make it
The day I tried to live, yeah
I tried
Your talk’ll be somethin’ that shouldn’t be said out loud
Honestly, I thought that I would be dead by now (Wow)
Callin’ security, keepin’ my head held down
Bury the hatchet or bury your friend right now
For the debt I owe, gotta sell my soul
I wanna end me
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can’t say we’re satisfied
Angie, I still love you, baby
Everywhere I look, I see your eyes
There ain’t a woman that comes close to you
Come on, baby, dry your eyes
Angie, Angie
Ain’t it good to be alive?
Angie,
They can’t say we never tried
So if what you have is working for you, or you think that it can stand a reasonable chance, and whatever’s broken seems fixable and nothing’s beyond repair
If you still think about each other and smile before you remember how screwed up it’s gotten or maybe dream of a time less rotten
Remember, it ain’t too late to take a deep breath and throw yourself into it with everything you got
It’s great to be alive
Gonna be a world of hurt
Gonna be a world of hurt
Gonna be a world of hurt…
You got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em
Know when to walk away and know when to run
You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table
There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealing’s done
I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you’re with me, I love it
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it’s love if it’s not rough it isn’t fun, fun
