Titres

1 No Surprize ♪ 4:26

Nineteen seventy one
we all heard the starters gun
New York is such a pity but at Max's Kansas City we won
we all shot the shit at 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 surprize
the boys kept kickin' ass
as usual time will tell
but some bitch in the choir threw waters on the fires of hell
she loved to show and tell
lord she loved to tell
but with all our style
you could see in our eyes
that we is still on trial
baby it's no surprize, no surprize, no surprize, no surprize
midnight lady
situation fetal
vaccinate your ass with your phonograph needle
I say lookie here
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' up our axle grease
oh the backstage is rockin' and we're coppin' from the local police
that's right the local police
or the justice of peace

chorus

rock and roll
junkie whore
got my foot inside the door
knock knock, knock knock, knock
nobody's keepin' score
bad times go away
come again some other day
topaz and sassafras
will keep the blues away
candy store rock and roll
corporation jelly roll
play the singles it ain't me
it's programmed insanity
you ASCAP if BMI
could ever make a mountain fly
if Japanese can boil teas
then where the fuck's my royalties?

2 Chiquita ♪ 4:26

Ooh, on the beach at cartegena
she, salty baby with the name-a
oh, chiquita
oh, love chiquita
she, takes to walkin' in the sunshine
she, she'll be lovin' till the moon shine
love chiquita
oh, love chiquita
she, got the poppy-eyed desire
tease, till the boys put out the fire
love chiquita
oh, love chiquita
oh no no, now don't you wake me up I'm dreaming
no no no, if you shake me I'll be screaming
love chiquita
oh love chiquita

3 Remember (Walking in the Sand) ♪ 4:05

Seems like the other day
my baby went away
she went away 'cross the sea
it's been two years or so
since I saw my baby go
and then this letter came for me

it said that we was through
she found somebody new
oh, lemme think, lemme think, what shall I do?
oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no...

(remember) walking in the sand
(remember) walking hand in hand
(remember) the night was so exciting
(remember) her smile was so inviting
(remember) then she touched my cheek
(remember) with her fingertips
(remember) softly, softly we met with a kiss

whatever happened to
that girl that I once knew
the girl that said she'd be true
oh, whatever happened to
that night I gave it to you
what will you do with it now

4 Cheese Cake ♪ 4:15

I met a babe in a backseat drive-in
back in the saddle she'd sit
pulled on the reins just to keep me risin'
she loved to chomp at the bit

daddy do it, ooh, just do it
daddy do it, please let me see
do it, please just do it daddy
do it, do it, drivin' me crazy

she always walks with her eyes down on her bootlace
she lives to give it away
she don't believe in the right time or the wrong place
she's always liable to say

(cheese cake) looser than her sister
(cheese cake) mmm, her sugar gets me high
she knows I can't resist her (cheese cake)
got my fingers in her pie (cheese cake)
(cheese cake) sneakin' out the back door
(cheese cake) rollin' down the lawn
everybody's kissed her (cheese cake)
at the crack of dawn (cheese cake)

5 Three Mile Smile ♪ 3:43

Take a walk in the warm New England sun
ain't no time to look for clues
you get the point from Uncle Sam's loaded gun
who be the hand that light the fuse

take a look, take a look at my old billy goat
he used to raise all kinds of hell
he took a dose of radiation dope
back in the barn is where he fell, like hell

Lucy, chromosome
Lucy, superdome

what makes you think you patronizin' my old friends
after you ride in my car, car
what you do when your oil's mexican?
OPEC boys you went too far, too far

Lucy, superdome
Lucy, chromosome

Lucy, papadum
Lucy, sing the song

ah, dig it up
ah, live it up
ah, dig it up
ah, live it up
look out

6 Reefer Head Woman ♪ 4:02

I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky
I got a reefer headed woman
she fell right down from the sky
well, I gots to drink me two fifths of whiskey
just to get half as high
when the good Lord made that woman
he sure went to town
ooh, when the good Lord made that woman
he sure went to town
well, when he was feelin' high
ooh, he sure shoulda been feelin' low

7 Bone to Bone (Coney Island White Fish Boy) ♪ 2:59

Flatbush boy cruisin' Sheepshead Bay
His boardwalk mama just a sniff away
Underground DMT, ridin' thunder train
The Coney Island white fish boy is on the run again

Ooooh, runnin' with the pack
Ooooh, and never lookin' back
Ooooh, know's just where he's been
That Coney Island white fish boy's
Been there and back again

Sixteen years with his boardwalk queen
And at steeplechase, she used to wet his dreams
She combs her hair, that flamin' jewel
Streaked with Clorox bleach
Coney gettin' down and dirty
Snortin' up the beach

And she'd be screamin' (Coney)
And she'd be dreamin' (Coney)
Go get 'em Coney

(Coney), Bone To Bone screamin'
(Coney) She be screamin' (Coney)

In town
Get back in town
Get back, a get down
Get back in town
Coney!
She'd be screamin' (Coney)
Best believe it (Coney)

8 Think About It ♪ 3:35

When will the clouds all blow it away
when will the good people have a say
now, I hope you're still around to see the day
take a while, think about it (3 x's)

who can tell what is up or down
who can believe a king or be the clown
then climb your tree, take a look around
take a while, think about it (2 x's)

that which is now, will be again
who can decide, who is insane

9 Mia ♪ 4:13

Hush-a-bye my baby soft and new
ooh her loveliness, gypsy dance in the rain
hush-a-bye my baby what you do
ooh, the baby cries, the wind she's a-callin' your name

where you came from you ain't alone
live and loved from the old jaw bone
ahh don't you cry, you're home sweet home

rock-a-bye sweet lady gypsy blue
ooh, the nightingale's singin her song in the rain
hush-a-bye sweet lady soft and new
ooh don't you cry, the wind she's a-screamin' your name

come too soon that sunny day
you give your heart away
no divorcee, no repouise
