Chaos and Disorder

(check check, ok cool, rolling)

(Hey)
(Yeah)

Carjack used 2 fix flat tires (Get your ass out of the car now!)
Cadillac used 2 be a Benz (hey, get out of the street)
Big joints never gotcha higher
Freebase cost U in the end

I'm just a no-name reporter
I wish I had nothing 2 say
Looking through my new camcorder
Trying 2 find a crime that pays
I get hit by mortars, everywhere I go I'm loitering
Chaos and disorder ruinin' my world 2day

He's gay used 2 mean he's happy
Nowadays happy ain't allowed (alright)
U're played used to mean top 40
(You're listening to WNPG and we will [?] chaos)
Now 40 days of being played ain't proud

I'm just a no-name reporter
I wish I had nothing 2 say
Lookin' through my new camcorder
Trying 2 find a crime that pays
I get hit by mortars, everywhere I go I'm loitering
Chaos and disorder ruinin' my world 2day
(Yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Safe sex used 2 mean no babies
When intercourse used to mean fun
If I had 15 ladies
I would only fuck with 1

I get hit by a mortar, everywhere I go I'm loitering
Chaos and disorder [rulin'/ruinin'] my world today

(good guys, look the way [...] coming down here)
([...] fuck [...] we belong)
([...] senora [...])
(I'm not gonna tell her [...] a lot of work to do)

Yeah, yeah, yeah [(...)]
yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)

(oh whoa no no no)
(hey)

I Like it There

Anyone can tell I love ya
Anyone can tell I care
Twice an hour I'm thinkin' of ya
Around your waist I wanna be there

On your heavenly body I swear
I like it there

Anyone can see what's come over me
Don't u know it's 'cause of u
I'm in a daze but that's the way it's gotta be
Let me count the ways I'm diggin' u
Diggin' u, baby

I hope u're diggin' me too

Baby,

I hope u're diggin' me too

Yeah,

That's right
On your heavenly body I swear

Every damn day I please u
What can I say Shakespeare hasn't said before?
Like an embryo baby
Don't abort this dire need 4 u
All my emotional ejaculate on the floor (on the floor)
And what's more, what's more
Your heavenly body, baby
I swear (I swear), I swear
I like it there

I like it there

On your heavenly body I swear (baby, baby, I swear)
I like it there

Dinner With Delores

Dinner with Delores
Must be some kind of sin
Like a Brontosaurus
She was packin' it in
The first night we dined
And by the next time
This girl was eatin' all but the tip

And by the stroke of midnight
She wanted some more (more)
Showin' dirty movies
Like some kind of whore
But she was wastin' her time
'Cause there wasn't a line
That would make me come 'round her door

Dinner with Delores
Must be some kind of sin
Her bell's just a-broken (bell's just broken)
Since 1984
(Dancin') Dancin' like a white girl (white girl)
On disco dirty floors
Damn, Delores, pick another subject please
Introduce the carpet 2 something other than your knees

Like a real confession
No one could be more made up than u
Nothin's left 4 guessin'
What a shame
(Boo hoo) Boo hoo

(Delores)
(Delores)

I'd call u a friend
But it must be a sin
And I've run out of cheeks 2 turn

Dinner with Delores
No more
That's the end

The Same December

Once was this ball with a line straight down the middle
One side was black and the other one white
And they both understood so little
That they spent their whole lives tryin' 2 tell each other what time it was
And all along it did not matter what either said
Because, because

U only know what u know
U only see what your heart will show
U only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

There once was a golden idol that went 2 the winners
Needless 2 say, it didn't make 'em feel any less a sinner
Cuz the very next mornin' the whole damn world was the same
Yes it was
The idol's still shinin' but the voice inside it said,
There ain't no winners in this game

U only know what u know
U only see what your heart will show
U only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

There once was an angel
Who most certainly watched over me
But if it got me through the day
Is it crazy?
Yeah, I'll be crazy

Until the demons fall as far as anyone can fall
When they reap what they done sowed, I'll be standin' tall
We spend our whole lives tryin' 2 dog the other man
When what we need 2 do is try to give him all we can

But, uh, u only know what u know
And, uh, u only see what your heart'll show
And, uh, u only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

Let's go
Let's go!

Right The Wrong

An Indian woman buried her grampa in the Black Hills
When she was young he used to tell her
That these hills belonged to her still
And even though injustice took them hills away
One day we'll get them back, he said
And the sun's gonna shine that day
When we say, right the wrong

Before she laid him down to rest
She heard his voice in the wilderness
Sayin "I got six feet of it back"
And now we can right the wrong

Right the wrong
Hear the song
Before long U won't hear nothin' but the crackle of flames
Right the wrong
Hear the song
Would u rather die knowing that u did or keep living in shame

Did you hear the one about the boy just 17
Three years hard time for stealing ice cream
First offence and all his dreams are gone
How long before they right the wrong?

Right the wrong
Hear the song
Before long U won't hear nothin' but the crackle of flames
Right the wrong
Hear the song
Would u rather die knowing that u did or keep living in shame

Right the wrong

2, 3, uh

1, 2, 1-2, come on
(Right the wrong baby)

Far be it from me to say
It seem like we could stop the flow of snow in the sky today
But I guess the weather man he likes the rain
Ain't that insane
Now sing

Right the wrong
Hear the song
Before long U won't hear nothin' but the crackle of flames
Right the wrong
Hear the song
Would u rather die knowing that u did or keep living in shame?

(Come on, come on, come on)
Did you hear me baby?
Right the wrong
I'm 6 feet in the grave
I'm 6 feet in the grave
(right right, right right)
(right the wrong right the wrong)
(right the wrong right the wrong)
Right the wrong (right the wrong right the wrong)
(right the wrong right the wrong)
(right the wrong right the wrong)
(right the wrong right the wrong)
Right the wrong (right the wrong right the wrong)

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust (right the wrong right the wrong)
This young man with a talented soul (right the wrong right the wrong)
Died when he wanted 2. (right the wrong right the wrong)
The [life/light]that lives (right the wrong right the wrong)
So he shall not be pitied
Nor shall the guity be forgiven
Until they find it in their hearts to
Right the wrong

Zannalee

Yeah, sarge, we just received a call
We got a disturbance on Galpin

Alright, go on'n check it out.

Really? Oh geez.

Well her name is Zannalee
I like what she do to me
Her name is Zannalee

She got a sister named Fendi
And they like to do me double team

To get 'em in the mood

To get 'em in the mood

And they watch me bank the six and the nine

Watch me bank it baby

Into The Light

From out of the darkness, before there was time
There came a sound that enters the mind
Through a door that's deep in your soul
Through every pore of your body it goes
And in a light too bright to behold
Is a truth more shiny than gold
And as sure as this candle burns
Every soul must return

Into the light, into the light

From out of the light there comes a story...
Open your mind, and feel the glory
What's the hurry to die without trying?
If you could sell your worries (sell your worries)
Would anyone buy 'em? (oh no)
And for every flower that grows, even a baby knows
That as sure as the candle burns
Every soul must return

Into the light, into the light

I Will

I will walk this road, I will, I will
It's gonna be hard I know, but I will, I will
People come and they'll go, but I still, I still
Face up to the truth and just grow, I will, I will
I will fight this fight, I will, I will
I will sleep 2night, I will, I will
Ive been down before, but I still, I still
Remember what I came 4, I will, I will

I will get 2 U, I will, I will
And then I'll help U get thru, I will, I will
U've preyed on many a fool, until, until
No one cared about U, but I will, I will

Dig U Better Dead

Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead (I'd Dig U)
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead (I'd Dig U)
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead

A long time ago, U took six months a walkin'
Talkin' on the other side
What started as an experiment
Turned into a heaven-sent message that saved your ass from dyin'
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys... And if you're lost they won't show U the way
" That same somebody said "I'd dig U better dead
But I'd much rather see if your God is what U say, say, say"

And with the awesome power they struck
1st they offered up the buck
Right in the middle, right in the middle they stuck (right in the middle)
A toke or 2, what the fuck? (what the fuck?)

One minute you're hot
Tell the truth and you're not
That's the noose that they hang on a goose like U
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys... And if you're lost they won't show U the way
" That same somebody said "I'd dig U better dead
But I'd much rather see if your God is what U say, say, say"

Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead

And whatever U do, don't make somebody happy
Don't dress 2 freaky and make their daughters stare
Then U'll find out how deep the valley truly be
If U plan on catchin' the bus, U better have plenty fare
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys... And if you're lost they won't show U the way
" That same somebody said "I'd dig U better dead
But I'd much rather see if your God is what U say, say, say"

Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig, dig, dig U better dead
I'd dig, dig U better dead
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys... And if you're lost they won't show U the way
" That same somebody said "I'd dig U better dead
But I'd much rather see if your God is what U say, say, say"

I'd Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
Dig U better dead, I'd dig U better dead
