Welcome to the jungle
We got fun n' games 
We got everything you want 
Honey, we know the names 
We are the people that can find 
Whatever you may need 
If you got the money, honey 
We got your disease 

In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees 
I wanna watch you bleed 

Welcome to the jungle 
We take it day by day 
If you want it you're gonna bleed 
But it's the price you pay 
And you're a very sexy girl 
That's very hard to please 
You can taste the bright lights 
But you won't get them for free 
In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Feel my, my, my serpentine 
I, I wanna hear you scream 

Welcome to the jungle 
It gets worse here everyday 
Ya learn ta live like an animal 
In the jungle where we play 
If you got a hunger for what you see 
You'll take it eventually 
You can have anything you want 
But you better not take it from me 

In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Watch it bring you to your 
knees, knees 
I'm gonna watch you bleed 

And when you're high you never 
Ever want to come down, YEAH! 

You know where you are 
You're in the jungle baby 
You're gonna die 
In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees 
In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Feel my, my, my serpentine 
In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees 
In the jungle 
Welcome to the jungle 
Watch it bring you to your 
It' gonna bring you down - HA!

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories 
Where everything 
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky 
Now and then when I see her face 
She takes me away to that special place 
And if I stared too long 
I'd probably break down and cry 

Sweet child o' mine 
Sweet love of mine 

She's got eyes of the bluest skies 
As if they thought of rain 
I hate to look into those eyes 
And see an ounce of pain 
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place 
Where as a child I'd hide 
And pray for the thunder 
And the rain 
To quietly pass me by 

Sweet child o' mine 
Sweet love of mine 

Where do we go 
Where do we go now 
Where do we go 

Where do we go 
Oh, where do we go now 
Where do we go 
Oh, where do we go now 
Oh, where do we go now 
Oh, where do we go 
Oh, where do we go now 
Where do we go 
Oh, where do we go now 
Where do we go 
Oh, where do we go now 
No, no, no, no, no, no, no 
Sweet child 
Sweet child o' mine

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
(whistle) 
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you 
I'm still alright to smile 
Girl, I think about you every day now 
Was a time when I wasn't sure 
But you set my mind at ease 
There is no doubt 
You're in my heart now 

Said, woman, take it slow 
It'll work itself out fine 
All we need is just a little patience 
Said, sugar, make it slow 
And we come together fine 
All we need is just a little patience 
(patience) 
Mm, yeah 

I sit here on the stairs 
'Cause I'd rather be alone 
If I can't have you right now 
I'll wait, dear 
Sometimes I get so tense 
But I can't speed up the time 
But you know, love 
There's one more thing to consider 

Said, woman, take it slow 
And things will be just fine 
You and I'll just use a little patience 
Said, sugar, take the time 
'Cause the lights are shining bright 
You and I've got what it takes 
To make it 
We won't fake it, 
I'll never break it 
'Cause I can't take it 

(whistle) 
...little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah 
Need a little patience, yeah 
Just a little patience, yeah 
Some more patience, yeah 
Need some patience, yeah 
Could use some patience, yeah 
Gotta have some patience, yeah 
All it takes is patience 
Just a little patience 
Is all you need 

I BEEN WALKIN' THE STREETS AT NIGHT 
JUST TRYIN' TO GET IT RIGHT 
HARD TO SEE WITH SO MANY AROUND 
YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE 
BEING STUCK IN THE CROWD 
AND THE STREETS DON'T CHANGE 
BUT BABY THE NAME 
I AIN'T GOT TIME FOR THE GAME 
'CAUSE I NEED YOU 
YEAH, YEAH, BUT I NEED YOU 
OO, I NEED YOU 
WHOA, I NEED YOU 
OO, ALL THIS TIME 
(ah)

Take me down
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
Take me home 
(back vocals) 
I want you please take me home 
(x 2) 

Just a' urchin livin' under the street 
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat 
I'm your charity case 
So buy me somethin' to eat 
I'll pay you at another time 
Take it to the end of the line 

Ragz to richez or so they say 
Ya gotta-keep pushin' for the fortune and fame 
You know it's 
It's all a gamble 
When it's just a game 
Ya treat it like a capital crime 
Everybody's doin' their time 

Take me down 
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
I want you please take me home 

CHORUS: 

Take me down 
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
Take me home 

Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber 
Why I'm here I can't quite remember 
The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe 
I'd have another cigarette but I can't see 
Tell me who you're gonna believe 

CHORUS 

Take me down 
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
I want you please take me home 

So far away 
So far away 
So far away 
So far away 

Captain America's been torn apart 
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart 
He said - 
Turn me around and take me back to the start 
I must be losin' my mind - "Are you blind?" 
I've seen it all a million times 

CHORUS 

Take me down 
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
I want you please take me home 

CHORUS 

Take me down 
To the paradise city 
Where the grass is green 
And the girls are pretty 
I want you please take me home

Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore 
It's getting dark too dark to see 
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door 

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 

Mama put my guns in the ground 
I can't shoot them anymore 
That cold black cloud is comin' down 
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door 

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 

"YOU JUST BETTER START SNIFFIN' YOUR OWN RANK SUBJUGATION 
JACK 'CAUSE IT'S JUST YOU AGAINST YOUR TATTERED LIBIDO, THE 
BANK AND THE MORTICIAN, FOREVER MAN AND IT WOULDN'T BE 
LUCK IF YOU COULD GET OUT OF LIFE ALIVE" 

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door 
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door

"WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE IS FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE
SOME MEN YOU JUST CAN'T REACH... 
SO, YOU GET WHAT WE HAD HERE LAST WEEK, 
WHICH IS THE WAY HE WANTS IT! 
WELL, HE GETS IT! 
N' I DON'T LIKE IT ANY MORE THAN YOU MEN." * 

(whistle) 
Look at your young men fighting 
Look at your women crying 
Look at your young men dying 
The way they've always done before 

Look at the hate we're breeding 
Look at the fear we're feeding 
Look at the lives we're leading 
The way we've always done before 

My hands are tied 
The billions shift from side to side 
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride 
For the love of God and our human rights 
And all these things are swept aside 
By bloody hands time can't deny 
And are washed away by your genocide 
And history hides the lies of our civil wars 

D'you wear a black armband 
When they shot the man 
Who said "Peace could last forever" 
And in my first memories 
They shot Kennedy 
I went numb when I learned to see 
So I never fell for Vietnam 
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all 
That you can't trust freedom 
When it's not in your hands 
When everybody's fightin' 
For their promised land 

And 
I don't need your civil war 
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor 
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers 
In a human grocery store 
Ain't that fresh 
I don't need your civil war 
Ow, oh no, no, no, no, no 

Look at the shoes you're filling 
Look at the blood we're spilling 
Look at the world we're killing 
The way we've always done before 
Look in the doubt we've wallowed 
Look at the leaders we've followed 
Look at the lies we've swallowed 
And I don't want to hear no more 

My hands are tied 
For all I've seen has changed my mind 
But still the wars go on as the years go by 
With no love of God or human rights 
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside 
By bloody hands of the hypnotized 
Who carry the cross of homicide 
And history bears the scars of our civil wars 

"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND 
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM 
THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM AS POPULAR WAR ADVANTAGE 
PEACE IS CLOSER" ** 

I don't need your civil war 
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor 
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers 
In a human grocery store 
Ain't that fresh 
And I don't need your civil war 
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no 
I don't need your civil war 
I don't need your civil war 
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers 
In a human grocery store 
Ain't that fresh 
I don't need your civil war 
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no 
I don't need one more war 

I don't need one more war 
No, no, no, no uh-oh-uh, no uh-oh, uh no 
WHAZ SO CIVIL 'BOUT WAR ANYWAY? 
(whistle)

I'm a cold heartbreaker
Fit ta burn and I'll rip your heart in two 
An I'll leave you lyin' on the bed 
I'll be out the door before ya wake 
It's nuthin' new ta you 
'Cause I think we've seen that movie too 

'Cause you could be mine 
But you're way out of line 
With your bitch slap rappin' 
And your cocaine tongue 
You get nuthin' done 
I said you could be mine 

Now holidays come and then they go 
It's nothin' new today 
Collect another memory 
When I come home late at night 
Don't ask me where I've been 
Just count your stars 
I'm home again 

'Cause you could be mine 
But you're way out of line 
With your bitch slap rappin' 
And your cocaine tongue 
You get nuthin' done 
I said you could be mine, yeah 
You could be mine 
You could be mine 
You could be mine 
You could be mine 
You could be mine, mine, mine, mine 

You've gone sketchin' too many times 
Why don't ya give it a rest 
Why 
Must you find 
Another reason to cry 

While you're breakin' down my back n' 
I been rackin' out my brain 
It don't matter how we make it 
'Cause it always ends the same 
You can push it for more mileage 
But your flaps r' wearin' thin 
And I could sleep on it 'til mornin' 
But this nightmare never ends 
Don't forget to call my lawyers 
With ridiculous demands 
An you can take the pity so far 
But it's more than I can stand 
'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older 
Tell me how long has it been 
'Cause 5 years is forever 
An you haven't grown up yet 

You could be mine 
But you're way out of line 
With your bitch slap rappin' 
And your cocaine tongue 
You get nuthin' done 
I said you could be mine 
You should be 
You could be mine 
Oh, You could be mine 
You could be mine 
Oh, You could be mine 
You could be mine 
Oh, You could be mine 
You could be mine 
Oh, You could be mine 
You could be mine 
Yeah!

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes 
Don't hang your head in sorrow 
And please don't cry 
I know how you feel inside I've 
I've been there before 
Somethin's changin' inside you 
And don't you know 

Don't you cry tonight 
I still love you baby 
Don't you cry tonight 
Don't you cry tonight 
There's a heaven above you baby 
And don't you cry tonight 

Give me a whisper 
And give me a sigh 
Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye 
Don't you take it so hard now 
And please don't take it so bad 
I'll still be thinkin' of you 
And the times we had... baby 

And don't you cry tonight 
Don't you cry tonight 
Don't you cry tonight 
There's a heaven above you baby 
And don't you cry tonight 

And please remember that I never lied 
And please remember 
How I felt inside now honey 
You gotta make it your own way 
But you'll be alright now sugar 
You'll feel better tomorrow 
Come the morning light now baby 

And don't you cry tonight 
An don't you cry tonight 
An don't you cry tonight 
There's a heaven above you baby 
And don't you cry 
Don't you ever cry 
Don't you cry tonight 
Baby maybe someday 
Don't you cry 
Don't you ever cry 
Don't you cry 
Tonight

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained 
But darlin' when I hold you 
Don't you know I feel the same 

'Cause nothin' lasts forever 
And we both know hearts can change 
And it's hard to hold a candle 
In the cold November rain 

We've been through this such a long long time 
Just tryin' to kill the pain 

But lovers always come and lovers always go 
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today 
Walking away 

If we could take the time to lay it on the line 
I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine 
All mine 
So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain 
Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain 

Do you need some time... on your own 
Do you need some time... all alone 
Everybody needs some time... on their own 
Don't you know you need some time... all alone 

I know it's hard to keep an open heart 
When even friends seem out to harm you 
But if you could heal a broken heart 
Wouldn't time be out to charm you 

Sometimes I need some time... on my own 
Sometimes I need some time... all alone 
Everybody needs some time... on their own 
Don't you know you need some time... all alone 

And when your fears subside and shadows still remain, oh yeah 
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame 
So never mind the darkness we still can find a way 
'Cause nothin' lasts forever even cold November rain 

You're not the only one 
You're not the only one 
Don't ya think that you need somebody 
Don't ya think that you need someone 
Everybody needs somebody 
You're not the only one 
You're not the only one 

Don't ya think that you need somebody 
Don't ya think that you need someone 
Everybody needs somebody 
You're not the only one 
You're not the only one 

Don't ya think that you need somebody 
Don't ya think that you need someone 
Everybody needs somebody 
You're not the only one 
You're not the only one 

Don't ya think that you need somebody 
Don't ya think that you need someone 
Everybody needs somebody

When you were young
And your heart was an open book 
You used to say live and let live 
You know you did 
You know you did 
You know you did 
But if this ever changin' world 
In which we live in 
Makes you give in and cry 
Say live and let die 
Live and let die 

What does it matter to ya 
When ya got a job to do 
Ya got to do it well 
You got to give the other fella hell 

You used to say live and let live 
You know you did 
You know you did 
You know you did 
But if this ever changin' world 
In which we live in 
Makes you give in and cry 
Say live and let die 
Live and let die

Yesterday
There was so many things 
I was never told 
Now that I'm startin' to learn 
I feel I'm growing old 

'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Old pictures that I'll always see 
Time to spin the pages 
In my book of memories 
Prayers in my pocket 
And no hand in destiny 
I'll keep on movin' along 
With no time to plant my feet 

'Cause yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Old pictures that I'll always see 
Some things could be better 
If we'd all just let them be 

Ooh yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Yesterday's, Ooh got nothin' for me 
Got nothin' for me, yeah 

Yesterday 
There was so many things 
I was never shown 
Suddenly this time I found 
I'm on the streets and I'm all alone 

Yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Old pictures that I'll always see 
I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties 

Ooh yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Yesterday's, Ooh got nothin' for me 
Yesterday's got nothin' for me 
Yesterday 

Yesterday

Ain't it fun when you're always on the run
Ain't it fun when your friends despise what you become
Ain't it fun when you get so high
Well... that you, you just can't come
Ain't it fun when you know that you gonna die young

It's such fun
Good fun
Such fun
Such fun
Aah such fun
Such fun
Such fun aah
Yeah fun,
Just fun
Such...

Ain't it fun when you taking care of number one
Ain't it fun when you feel like you just gotta get a gun
Ain't it fun when you just can't seem to find your tounge
Cause you stuck it too deep into something that really stung
It's such fun, ah

Well, so good to me, they spit right in my face
I didn't even feel it
It was such a disgrace

I punched my fist right through the glass
I didn't even feel it
It happened so fast

Such fun
Such fun
Such fun
Ah such fun
Such fun
Such fun
Ah such fun

Ain't it fun when you tell her she's just a cunt
Ain't it fun when you she splits you and leaves you on the bum
Well, ain't it fun when you've broken up every band that you've ever begun
Ain't it fun when you know that you're gonna die young

It's such fun
Such fun(x 13)

I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
I, I, I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

And I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

Happiness and I guess
I never will again
When you walked out on me
In walked ol' misery
And she's been here since then

(spoken)
Yeah, we're fucked!

I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

You, you, you, oh, oh!
You, you, you, oh, oh!
You, you, you, oh, oh!
You, you, you, oh, oh!
You, you, you, oh yeah!

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around St. Petersberg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank 
Held a general's rank
When the Blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
What's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the Gods they made

I shouted out
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadors
Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Pleased to meet you 
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint

So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um baby, get down

Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!

Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, baby guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame

Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah

What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
