Got to meet the hottie with the million dollar body
They say it's over budget,
but you'd pay her just to touch it, come on
Needs to hit the big screen,
and shoot a little love scene
If Hollywood had called her,
she'd be gone before you holler, come on

Dirty little lady with the pretty pink thong
Every sugar daddy hittin' on her all night long
Doesn't care about the money,
she could be with anybody
Ain't it funny, yea but honey I wanted you all along

(You're naughty thing)
You're ripping up the dance floor honey
(You're naughty woman)
You shake your ass around for everyone
(You're such a mover)
I love the way you dance with anybody
(The way you swing)
And tease them all while sucking on your thumb
You're so much cooler when you never pull it out
'Cause you look so much cuter with something in your mouth

Crafty little lip tricks
Tattoo's on her left hip
She's bending as you're spending
there's no end to it so baby, come on
Dressed up like a princess
Bettin' that her skin smells
Better than the scent of every flower in the desert, come on

Dirty little lady with the pretty pink thong
Every sugar daddy hittin' on her all night long
Doesn't care about the money,
she could be with anybody
Ain't it funny, yea but honey I wanted you all along

(You're naughty thing)
You're ripping up the dance floor honey
(You're naughty woman)
You shake your ass around for everyone
(You're such a mover)
I love the way you dance with anybody
(The way you swing)
And tease them all while sucking on your thumb
You're so much cooler when you never pull it out
'Cause you look so much cuter with something in your mouth

She loves the night scene bar queen
Just living for the fun taking over
every dance floor like she's the only one
In the spotlight all night kissing everyone
And trying to look so innocent while sucking on her thumb
(So much cooler)
When you never pull it out
(So much cuter)
With something in your mouth

(You're naughty thing)
You're ripping up the dance floor honey
(You're naughty woman)
You shake your ass around for everyone
I love the way you dance with everybody
(The way you swing)
And tease them all while sucking on your thumb
(You're naughty thing)
You're ripping up the dance floor honey
(You're naughty woman)
You shake that ass around for everyone
(You're such a mover)
I love the way you dance with everybody
(The way you swing)
And tease them all while sucking on your thumb
You're so much cooler when you never pull it out
'Cause you look so much cuter with something in your

Well it's midnight, damn right, we're wound up, too tight
I got a fist full of whiskey, the bottle just bit me
Ohhhhh
That shit makes me bat shit crazy
We got no fear, no doubt, all in, balls out

We're going off tonight (hey)
To kick out every light (hey)
To get anything that we want (hey)
To drink everything in sight (hey)
We're going till the world stops turning
While we burn it to the ground tonight
Ooooooo
Ooooooo

We're screaming like demons, swinging from the ceiling
I got a fist full of fifties, tequilia just hit me
Ohhhhh
We got no class, no taste, no shirt and shit faced
We got it lined up, shot down, firing back, straight crown

We're going off tonight (hey)
To kick out every light (hey)
To get anything that we want (hey)
To drink everything in sight (hey)
We're going till the world stops turning
While we burn it to the ground tonight
Ooooooo
Ooooooo

Ticking like a time bomb, drinking till the night's gone
Well get your hands off of this glass, last call my ass
Well no chain, no lock and this train won't stop
We got no friend, no tab, all in, balls out

We're going off tonight (hey)
To kick out every light (hey)
To get anything that we want (hey)
To drink everything in sight (hey)
We're going till the world stops turning
While we burn it to the ground tonight
Ooooooo
We're going off tonight (hey)
To kick out every light (hey)
To get anything that we want (hey)
To drink everything in sight (hey)
We're going till the world stops turning
While we burn it to the ground tonight

This time, I wonder what it feels like
To find the one in this life,
The one we all dream of
But dreams just aren't enough
So I'll be waiting for the real thing,
I'll know it by the feeling
The moment when we're meeting,
We'll play out like a scene
Straight off the silver screen
So I'll be holding my own breath,
Right up 'til the end
Until that moment when,
I find the one that I'll spend forever with

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there

Tonight, out on the street, out in the moonlight
And dammit this feels too right,
It's just like deja vu
Me standing here with you
So I'll be holding my own breath,
Could this be the end
Is it that moment when,
I find the one
That I'll spend forever with

Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me like that
Cause nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know they're not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there

You can't give up,
Looking for a diamond in the rough
You never know, when it shows up,
Make sure you're holding on
Cause it could be the one, the one you're waiting on
Cause nobody wants to be the last one there
And everyone wants to feel like someone cares
Someone to love with my life in their hands
There's gotta be somebody for me, ohhh

Nobody wants to do it on their own
And everyone wants to know their not alone
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there
Nobody wants to be the last one there
Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares
There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere
There's gotta be somebody for me out there

Just one more moment, that's all that's needed
Like wounded soldiers in need of feeling
Time to be honest, this time I'm pleading
Please don't dwell on it cause I didn't mean it

I can't believe I said "I'd lay our love on the ground"
But it doesn't matter cause I made it up
Forgive me now
Everyday I spent away
My soul's inside out
Gotta be some way that I can make it up
To you now, somehow

By now you know that
I'd come for you
No-one but you
Yes, I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

I was blindfolded, but now I'm seeing
My mind was closing, now I'm believing (now I'm believing)
I finally know just what it means to let someone in
To see the side of me that no-one does, or ever will
So if you're ever lost and find yourself all alone
I'd search forever just to bring you home
Here and now, it's a vow

By now you know that
I'd come for you
No-one but you
Yes, I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember
You know I'd always come for you

Yes, I'd come for you
No-one but you
Yes, I'd come for you
But only if you told me to (to)

And I'd fight for you
I'd lie it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember
You know I'd always come for you

I'd crawl across this world for you
Do anything you want me to
No matter what, remember
You know I'd always come for you
You know I'd always come for you

I wanna do it till the sun comes up
till we're both so good and sweaty we can't stand up
I wanna do it till we're both about to drop
as long as we're caught in together
we're never gonna stop.

I wanna go until the neighbors all complain
cause they heard somebody screamin
and they think we're both in pain
I wanna go so long your parents think you died
there gonna call the cops the CIA and then the FBI

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go

shut the windows lock the doors unplug the phone
for all intents and purposes there aint no body home
then we can do it till the batteries are gone
and borrow two from the tv
remote to turn this thing back on

I wanna cover you with jello in the tub
we can roll around for hours without ever comin up
I want you naked with your favorite heels on
write John Deere across my ass
and ride me up and down the lawn

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go

Yeah, we're gonna love it when the lights go down
hold on here we go
yeah, we're gonna go untill our legs give out
round and round we go
yeah, we're gonna do it hangin upside down
up and down we go
yeah, we're getting ready for the next go round
round and round we go

He was my best friend, I tried to help him
But he traded everything, for suffering
And found himself alone
I watched the lying, turn into hiding
With scars on both his lips, his fingertips
Were melted to the bone

But I can still remember what his face looked like
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with
You're better off
To take all you've got and burn it on the spot
To get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh)

Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating
He sold his mother's rings, she said nothing
And pretended not to know
He started stealing, to supply the feeling
Found out he pulled a knife, on someone's wife
And held it to her throat

But I can still remember what his face looked like
When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with
You're better off
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh)
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid
Show me
What you really want, was it what you got
Slowly
Circle in the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh)
High-igh, igh...oooooh

(High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh)
Hiiigh
(High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh)
Hiiigh

Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Tell me what you know! Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with
You're better off
To take all that you've got and burn it on the spot
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh (high-igh, igh, igh)
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid
Show me
What you really want, was it what you got
Slowly
Circle in the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh
Circle in the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high-igh, igh, igh, igh

Time is going by so much faster than I
And I'm starting to regret not spending all of it with you
Now I'm wondering why I've kept this bottled inside
So I'm starting to regret not telling all of it to you
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know

You're never gonna be alone
From this moment on
If you ever feel like letting go
I won't let you fall
You're never gonna be alone
I'll hold you till the hurt is gone

And now, as long as I can
I'm holding on with both hands
Cause forever I believe that there's nothing I could need but you
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know

You're never gonna be alone
From this moment on
If you ever feel like letting go
I won't let you fall
When all hope is gone
I know that you can carry on
We're gonna see the world out
I'll hold you till the hurt is gone

You've gotta live every single day
Like it's the only one
What if tomorrow never comes?
Don't let it slip away
Could be our only one
You know it's only just begun
Every single day
Maybe our only one
What if tomorrow never comes?
Tomorrow never comes

Time is going by so much faster than I
I'm starting to regret not telling all of this to you

You're never gonna be alone
From this moment on
If you ever feel like letting go
I won't let you fall
When all hope is gone
I know that you can carry on
We're gonna see the world out
I'll hold you till the hurt is gone

I'm gonna be there all the way
I won't be missing one more day
I'm gonna be there all the way
I won't be missing one more day

(Hey, Hey)
She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door
You grow up quick when you grow up poor
It's the only way to LA that she knows
The Hollywood pose: teeth, tips, and drawers

It didn't take her long to leave the boulevard
So many fights start quick with that credit card (?)
She'd try anything once
Cause anything goes
It never comes easy when you're digging for gold

(Hey, Hey)
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice as hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

(Hey, Hey)
I doubt she'd even let the devil buy a little black book
Said we'd all probably fall off if anyone got a look (?)
Every aimless player is a favorite friend
Because they all taste the fame in the back of a vans
A congressman would call her every once in a while
Got the school girl skirt on the top of the pile
She'd done everyone once
And everyone knows
You got to get a little dirty when you're digging for gold

(Hey, Hey)
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

Well someone spilled the beans and now her name's in the press
Tough to keep it all a secret when you're one of the best
The judge is going easy because he paid for her breasts
Yeah he loves his naughty wicked witch of the west

Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west
Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

You know there's a dirty word
Never gonna say it first
No it's just a thought that never crosses my mind
Maybe in the parking lot
Better bring your friend along
Better rock together than just one at a time

S is for the simplety
E is for the ecstasy
X is just to mark the spot
Because that's the one you really want
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah

I'm loving what you wanna wear
I wonder what's up under there
Wonder if I'll ever have it under my tongue
I'll love to try to set you free
I love you all over me
Love hearin' the sound you make the second you're done

S is for the simplety
E is for the ecstasy
X is just to mark the spot
Because that's the one you really want
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah

S is for the simplety
E is for the ecstasy
X is just to mark the spot
Because that's the one you really waaaant
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask a question
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah

Yes

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

Looking like another Bob Marley day
Hitting from the bong like a diesel train
And now we're hanging out this afternoon

We got weeds in the back that are 4 feet tall
Cheech and Chong would probably have smoked them all
So, I'm on the couch this afternoon

Beer bottles laying on the kitchen floor
If we take them out back we can buy some more
So I doubt we're going out this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cause we'll be doing this till 6 in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't
Matter when you got to

Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

The landlord says I should buy a tent
But he can kiss my ass cause I paid the rent
So I doubt, he'll kick me out this afternoon

Down on the corner in a seedy bar
Jukebox cranking out the CCR
Had a few, just who's with you this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cause we'll be doing this till 6 in the moring
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't
Matter when you got to

Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

Wear a wristwatch, and alarm clock
To see what time it ends
From the moment I wake up, I just
Love being with my friends
We barely get by, but have the best
Times and hope it never ends
We drink all day until we fall down,
So we can do it all again

?? it's the human race
If we were living on the edge taking too much space
So I'll doubt I'll figure out just what to do
But kicking around hanging out this afternoon

Better hang on if your tagging along
Cause we'll be doing this till 6 in the moring
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on doesn't
Matter when you got to

Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again
Get up, go out
Me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down
We'll do it all again

Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
