Aerosmith - Draw the Line Lyrics






Draw The Line

Checkmate honey, beat ya at your own damn game
No dice honey, I'm livin' on the astral plane
Feet's on the ground,
And your head's goin' down the drain
Oh, heads I win, tails you lose,
To the never mind
Where to draw the line

An indian summer, carrie was all over the floor
She was a wet net winner,
And rarely ever left the store
She'd sing and dance all night,
And wrong all the right out of me
Oh, pass me the vile and cross your fingers,
It don't take time know where to draw the line

Hi ho silver, we were singin' all your cowboy songs
Oh, you told Carrie,
And promised her you wouldn't be long
Heads I win, tails you lose,
Lord it's such a crime
No dice honey, you're the salt,
You're the queen of the brine
Checkmate honey, you're the only one who's got to choose
Where to draw the line

Checkmate, don't be late
Take another pull
That's right, impossible
When you got to be yourself
You're the boss, the toss
The price, the dice
Grab yourself a slice
Know where to draw the line

I Wanna Know Why

Kickin' down the road
Feelin' mighty slowed
With the likes of you

Gettin' mighty spaced
Never had a taste
Of what you're goin' through

I can't bitch
Went from rags to riches
Then to ragtime screamin' the blues

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Try to make a fool outta of me

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Gotta make a fool
Gotta make a fool
Try to make a fool outta of me

Swing low
Sweet cherry o
When a strange love showed me the way

Ya see more
Can't keep a score
When the whore's comin' on for the play

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Gotta make a fool outta of me

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Gotta make a fool
Gotta make a fool
Try to make a fool outta of me

E. Poe
Eatin' crow
Wonder if he knowed that the raven was mad

Time passed
And words lost the last
Of the best thing he ever had

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Gotta make a fool outta of me

I wanna know why
Everybody's good intentions
Gotta make a fool
Gotta make a fool
Try to make a fool outta of me

Oh play rough
Can't get enough
So they try to make a fool out of me, lordy

Ain't foolin' me
Ya ain't ghoulin' me
Ain't foolin' me
Ya ain't ghoulin' me

Critical Mass

Arriving in boats, black hooded coats
Tormentors climbed into my room
I crawled under my bed, covered my head
But they're flushin' me out with a broom

The leader, she's small, pinned my ass to the wall
For my seeds or she'd be losin' her past
Time after time, she'd be readin' my mind
But she never got the feelin' to last

Celebrate, celebrate, celebraid it
This is the critical mass

So far so good, I heard the other say
So good so far, they're takin' me away
I drink to you, your mind, her ass
We'll take a drink and break the glass

Celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
This is the critical mass

Now the tallest of two, with a brush full of blue
Paints surrealist scenes on the wall
So I tell her for fun, that it's really well done
But she just ain't listenin' at all

She points to my heart, tellin' me if I'm smart
I'll practice and phase
Out and admit, when the shoe doesn't fit
And I went screaming out down the hall

Really need it
Really need your love
Really need your love
Need your love need your love love love love love love love love love love

Just then I heard a poundin' on the door
We're all here, sang the voice of twenty more
I drink to you alas
We'll take a drink and break the glass

Celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
We are the critical mass

Time in space, is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day
Time in space, is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day
Time in space, is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day

Get It Up

Take me on you rocking whores
Hit the lights and shut your doors
Grab your ankles everyone
Ain't my way of having fun

Can't give it up, gotta get it up,give it up, c'mon Nancy
Can't get it up, get it up, for your fancy
Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy
Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up

For your fantasies my ass don't speculate
I'm just your slave, your master's bait
And lots of luck into the night
Just waitin' for the bright light fright

Can't give it up, gotta give it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy
Can't get it up, get it up, for your fancy
Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy
Get it up, gotta get it up, c'mon Nancy

Really have a good time
Really have a good time
Suckin up the moonshine
Up underneath her clothesline

Really have a good time
Love me 'til the sun

Can't give it up, gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy
Can't give it up, gotta get it up, get it up, get it up, for your fancy
Gotta get it up, give it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy
Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up, get it up

Get it up and down and all around
Take the ride and paint the town
Slow me down and make it fast
Scream almost and make it last

You know you gotta really have a good time
You know your really gonna, really have a good time
Suckin up the moonshine
Up underneath the her clothesline

You know your really gonna
Really have a good time
You know you really wanna
Love me 'til the sun

Can't get it up
Get it up

Bright Light Fright

It's the dawn of the day and I'm crashed and I'm smashed
As it is I'm feelin' like my chips are cashed
All of my clothes strewn all over the room
The crisis at hand is I'm all out of zoom

I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the good morning news

The tricks of the night keepin' me in a daze
We'll open a bottle and I'll pull down the shades
Glance in the mirror back into bed
We'll get up the same time to party again

I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the good morning news

Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Go...gimme the night

Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Go...gimme the night

I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the good morning news...woo

Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Go...gimme the night

Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Bright Light Fright
Go...gimme the night

I got the sunlight blues
I can't find my shoes
The only thing on TV
Is the good morning news

Kings And Queens

Long ago in days I'm told
Were ruled by Lords of greed
Maidens fared with gold
They dared to bare their wombs that bleed

Kings and queens and guillotines
Taking lives denied
Starch and parchment laid the laws
When bishops took the ride
Only to deceive

Oh I know I lived this life afore
Somehow know now truths I must be sure
Tossin turnin' nightmares burnin' dreams of swords in hand
Sailin' ships the Viking spits the blood of father's land
Only to deceive

Living times of knights and mares
Raising swords for maidens fair
Sneer at death fear only loss of pride

Living other centuries
Deja vu or what you please
Follows true to all who do or die

Screams of no reply they died
Screams of no reply and died
Lordy lordy and then then they died
Lordy no then they died

Live and do or die
Long ago were days I told...Lord they died
Kings and queens and guillotines...
Live and no reply they died
Long ago were days I told...
Kings and queens and guillotines...

The Hand That Feeds

Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please, doctor, doctor, please
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Feel like a old disease

Doctor, doctor, doctor
Get your sweet ass off the floor
Doctor, doctor, doctor
I can't refuse any loose hearted lady anymore

I scream your name into the crowd
You feel the flame but you ain't proud
Maybe your attitude ain't right
So all that's left for me to do is bite the hand that feeds me (feeds me)

Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, please

All things you put me through
What the hell you want me to
Do all the things that Uncle John needs
I ain't the dog that bites the hand that feeds me

In the middle of, with a spittle of
Et tu like birds of a feather
When another day, love another way
Push, shove, make love, play

Never never, never ever
Never ever, never ever
Na na na na

Well
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please do a what you can
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Would you please give my life a hand

All things you put me through
A what the hell you want me to
Do all the things that Uncle John needs
I ain't the dog that bites the hand that feeds me, yeah

Doctor, doctor, doctor
Please, doctor, doctor, please
Doctor, doctor, doctor

Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor
Doctor, doctor, doctor

Sight For Sore Eyes

Uuhh!
Goin' downtown, goin' down, goin' down
'Neath the city, eatin' ground round
Underground is pretty gritty

I turned the screw she held the light
That's when I knew she was a

Sight for sore eyes
She was a sight for sore eyes
She was a sight for sore eyes
She was a sight for sore eyes

Playin' no fair, sleepin' under stairs
Downtown's a pity, takin' fair square
Never where it's pretty gritty

I turned the screw she held the knife
Oh holy Jesus

She's a sight for sore eyes
(Oh she's a nitty nitty nitty)
You a sight for sore eyes
(Oh...she's a nitty gritty)

Turnin' in style
Walk a mile for your titty
Naked foul while under there
Underwear that's pretty gritty

Hey, don't you know people
She's a love lust hussy
She left, oh, she rust me
Dear old girl

She was a sight for sore eyes but she was sittin' pretty
Sight for sore eyes she was a nitty gritty
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes

Peeled back and parted
Even in the car
It was delight or demise
I'm livin' like a leopard king

Sight for sore eyes

She was a sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes
Sight for sore eyes

Milk Cow Blues

Well I tried everything
Just to get along with you
And I'm gonna tell you just
What I'm gonna do

Well I'm sick of all your cryin
When you should be leavin me alone
If you don't believe me
You pack my bag, I'm gone

Won'tcha please
A don't that sun look good goin' down
You almost lost your love girl
When your ol' man ain't around

Won'tcha please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
Won't you please
Don't that sun look good goin' down
Well you best believe that I love ya baby
When your ol man ain't around

New dance!

Go!

Won'tcha you please
Don't that sun (sun) look (look) good (good) goin' down
Won't you please....woo
Don't that sun look good goin' down
Well you best believe that I love ya baby
When your ol' man ain't around

And around and around and
around and around and
around and round and
round and round and
round and round...yak yak yak yak ya...
