Toys In The Attic

In the attic lies

Voices scream

Nothing’s seen

Real’s the dream

Leaving the things that are real behind

Leaving the things that you love from mind

All of the things you learned from fears

Nothing is left for the years

Voices scream

Nothing’s seen

Real’s the dream

(Chorus)

Toys, toys, Toys In The Attic

Toys, toys, Toys In The Attic

Toys, toys, Toys In The Attic

Toys, toys, Toys In The Attic

In the attic lies

Voices scream

Nothing’s seen

Real’s the dream

Leaving the things that are real behind

Leaving the things that you love from mind

All of the things you learned from fears

Nothing is left for the years

Voices scream

Nothing’s seen

Real’s the dream

(Repeat Chorus) (yayayayayayayow!)

2. Uncle Salty

Uncle Salty told me

Stories of the lonely

Baby, we can only come alive to me

Her man he was lusted

Daddy he was busted

They left her to be trusted

To the orphanage

But when she cried at night

No one cared

And when she cried at night

Went insane

Uncle Salty told me

When she was just a baby

That she could buy a maybe

Someday she’d see

Soon she found that money

Is love for all the others

The pushers and the shovers

Was the life to me

But when she cried at night

No one cared

And when she cried at night

Went insane

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, oh yeah

Oh, oh yeah

Now she’s doin’ many

For money and the penny

Sell her for a penny or two or three

Hers is the cunnin’

For men that come a runnin’

They all come for fun and it seems to me

That when she cried at night

No one cared

And when she cried at night

Went insane

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

Oh, it’s a sunny day outside my window

3. Adam’s Apple

Back when Cane was able

Way before the stable

Lightning shot right out from the sky

A mothership with fith said

Let’s give it a try

Conscience was related

Man, he was created

Lady Luck took him by surprise

Her sweet and bitter fruit

It surely opened his eyes

Well, she ate it

Lordy, it was love at first bite

Well, she ate it

Never knowin’ wrong for right, right, right, right

Even Eve in Eden

Voices tried deceivin’

With lies to show the lady the way

At first she stopped and turned

And tried to walk away

Man, he was believer

Lady was deceiver

So the story goes, but you see

The snake was he and she just climbed right up his tree

So, she ate it

Lordy, it was love at first bite

She ate it

Never knowin’ wrong for right, right, right

Science was related

Man, he was created

When Lady Luck took him by surprise

Her sweet and bitter fruits

Surely opened his eyes

Evil came like rain

And who knows who’s to blame

And something tried to lay her to waste

And all she want to need was just a little taste

So, she ate it

Lordy, it was love at first bite

Yeah, She ate it

Never knowin’ wrong for right, right, right, right

Well, she ate it

Lordy, it was love at first bite

Yeah, she ate it

never knowing wrong from right, right,

Well that’s right

4. Walk This Way

Backstroke lover always hidin’ ‘neath the cover

Gonna talk to ya my daddy he say

He said “You ain’t seen noting

Till you’re down on a muffin

Then you’re sure to be a-changin’ your ways”

I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder

All the times I can reminisce

‘Cause the best thing lovin’

With her sister and her cousin

Only started with a little kiss, like this

See-saw swingin’ with the boys in the school

And your feet flyin’ up in the air

Singin’ hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle

Of a swing like you didn’t care

So I took a big chance at the high school dance

With a missy who was ready to play

Was a me she was foolin’

‘Cause she knew what she was doin’

And I know her love was here to stay

When she told me to

Walk this way, walk this way

Walk this way, walk this way

Ah, just give me a kiss – like this

School girl skinny with the classy kinda sassy

Little skirt’s climbing way up her knees

There was three young ladies in the school gym locker

When I noticed they was lookin’ at me

I was a high school loser

Never made it with a lady

Till the boys told me something I missed

Then my next door neighbor

With a daughter had a favor

So I gave her just a little kiss, like this

See-saw swingin’ with the boys in the school

And your feet flyin’ up in the air

Singin’ hey diddle-diddle with the kitty in the middle

Of a swing like you didn’t care

So I took a big chance at the high school dance

With a missy who was ready to play

Was a me she was foolin’

‘Cause she knew what she was doin’

When she told me how to Walk This Way

She told me to

Walk this way, talk this way

Walk this way, walk this way

Walk this way, walk this way

Walk this way, talk this way

5. Big Ten Inch Record

Got me the strangest woman

Believe it, this chick’s no cinch

When I wanna get her goin’

Then I whip out my Big Ten Inch

Record of the band that plays the blues

Well the band that plays the blues

She just loved my Big Ten Inch

Record of her favorite blues

Last night I tried to tease her

I gave my love a little pinch

But she said now stop that jivin

and whip out your big ten-inch

Record of the band that plays the blues

Well the band that plays the blues

She just loved my Big Ten Inch

Record of her favorite blues

I’ll cover her with kisses

and when we’re in a lover’s clinch

she gets all excited

when she puts on my big ten-inch

Record of the band that plays the blues

Well the band that plays the blues

She just loved my Big Ten Inch

Record of her favorite blues

My gal don’t go smokin’

and liquor just makes her flinch

Seems she don’t go for nothin’

‘cept for my big ten-inch

Record of the band that plays the blues

Band that plays the blues

She just loved my Big Ten Inch

Record of her favorite blues

6. Sweet Emotion

Sweet Emotion

Sweet Emotion

You talk about things that nobody cares

You’re wearing out things that nobody wears

You calling my name but I gotta make clear

I can’t say baby where I’ll be in a year

Some sweat hog mama with a face like a gent

Said my get up and go must a got up and went

Well I got good news, she’s a real good liar

‘Cause the backstage boogie set your pants on fire

Sweet Emotion

Sweet Emotion

I pulled into town in a police car

Your daddy said I took you just a little to far

You’re telling me things but your girlfriend lied

You can’t catch me ’cause the rabbit gone died

Yes it is

You stand in the front just a shakin’ your ass

I’ll take you backstage, you can drink from my glass

I talk about something you can sure understand

‘Cause a month on the road an’ I’ll be eating from your hand

——————————————————————-

7. No More No More

Blood stains the ivorys

Of my Daddy’s baby grand

I aint’ seen no daylight

Since we started this band

No More, No More

No More, No More

Store bought clothes

Fallin’ apart at the seams

Tea leaf readin’ gypsies

Fortune tellin’ my dreams

No More, No More

No More, No More

Holiday Inns, lock the door with a chain

You love it than you hate it

But to me they’re all the same

No More, No More

No More, No More

Baby I’m a dreamer

Found my horse and carriage

Stalemate jailbait

Ladies can’t refuse

You love ‘em then you leave ‘em

With your sold out reviews

No More, No More

No More, No More

Sweet talkin’ barroom, ladies disease

Slippin’ with her lips

Slidin’ down your knees

No More, No More

No More, No More

Me and my life a screamer

Bound to a wife and marriage

Baby, I’m a dreamer

Found my horse and carriage

Ladies hold the aces

And their lovers call it passion

The men call it pleasure

But to me it’s old fashioned

Times they are a-changin

Nothin’ ever stands still

If I don’t stop a-changin

I’ll be writin’ out my will

It’s the same old story

Never get a second chance

For a dance to the top of the hill

Baby I’m a dreamer

Found my horse and carriage

————————————————————-

8. Round And Round

If you believe in me

Like I believe in you

You wouldn’t be tellin’ me things

That weren’t exactly true

Now everything changes

Ain’t got nothing to say

I’m having the strangest feeling, baby

I can’t remember my name

‘Cause the life I’ve been livin’

And the love I’ve been givin’

Will be sure to send you spinnin’

With your feet never touching the ground

Goin’ round n’ round

When it was one for all

And it was all for one

And everything that we did

Never bothered anyone

Now everything changes

Ain’t nothing the same

I’m having the strangest feeling, baby

I can’t remember my name

‘Cause the life I’ve been livin’

And the love I’ve been givin’

Will be sure to send you spinnin’

With your feet never touching the ground

Goin’ round n’ round

Can you remember the days

When you were sweet sixteen

And always followed the ways

Of someone elses dream

Now everything changes

Ain’t nothing the same

I’m having the strangest feeling, baby

I can’t remember my name

‘Cause the life I’ve been livin’

And the love I’ve been givin’

Will be sure to send you spinnin’

With your feet never touching the ground

Goin’ round n’ round

Goin’ round n’ round n’ round n’ round….

9. You See Me Crying

You See Me Crying

Don’t let it get you down

You See Me Crying

I’m back to the lost and found

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said

You See Me Crying

Say you a ladies man

You See Me Crying

I’m so hard to understand

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said

You See Me Crying

Please say you stick around

And I got to be your lover, honey

Lovin’ time after time

And I show everything around

And I never ever let you down

‘Cause my love is like a madder round

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said

Honey, what you done to your head

Honey, what’s the words that I said
