1. _ Curiousity Kills
You sit around there telling stories
Taking chips from old past glories
I had never thought that you'd wake
A single left, choose
With some parts that you can't use
That's why I never liked your pity parties
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but now now it's him cryin' help
You talk about me so much
That I think that you're in love with me
Yea, you do, it's true man, your busted
You talk about me to your friends
Or anyone with time to listen
You can never ever be trusted
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but it's him cryin' help
End to the lies, end to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies now you you were the foreskin
I was the real head you were the foreskin
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but it's him cryin' help
End to the lies, end to the lies end to the lies
End to the lies, end to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies, End to the lies

2. _ I'll Hit You Back
Next time
I'll have somewhere else
To be
I'm running away from you
Can't take being besieged
Knowing that I got some scars on you
And knowing that I held my ground to you
I'm trying just to see
The bigger picture, oh
Be the bigger man
Don't hit first, resist attack
But know, I'll hit you back
Knowing that I got some scars on you
And knowing that I held my ground to you
Knowing that I knocked you down
Knowing that I let my tongue go
I aimed and I let out my rounds on you
Do I have to be the bigger man
Always the better man
Forget that
Forget that
Forget that
I wanna hit you back, ooh
Hit you back, yeah
Hit you back, ooh
Hit you back, yeah
Hit you back
Knowing that I got some scars on you
And knowing that I held my ground to you
Knowing that I knocked you down
Knowing that I let my tongue go
I aimed and I let out my rounds on you
I aimed and I let out my rounds on you

3. _ Underground
I try and get some love from up high
There just ain't enough to go around
How you doing bro' is New York
Holding you up, or is it letting you down?
I have missed you all heaps and I've replanted
My feet back in the underground
I'm a hustler
Hustler
I'll never give up the underground
I came back to pay respect to another fallen angel
At the old canteen
Someone had to float the cash
Pay up for the wake and so we all agreed
We're all hustlers
Hustlers
I try to find some love from up high
There just ain't enough to go around
Someone had to pay up for the waste
Taking place down in the underground
Come on
I couldn't get up
We're all hustlers
Hustlers
I try to find some love from up high
There just ain't enough to go around
Someone had to pay up for the waste
Taking place down in the underground

4. _ Words Right Out of My Mouth
There's birds up in the trees
My words they want to eat
They wait for me to speak
They swoop in and swallow them down
There's people on the ground
Hungry for some beats to pound
Don't need no bread
They just scream for a morsel of
Sound, more sound
Out, right out
Took the words
Right out of my mouth
Then you came into the room
Everybody was, bam
Well she must be a rockette
One said done and the others said
Wow, oh wow
Out, right out
Took the words
Right out of my mouth
Out, right out
Took the words
Right out of my mouth
Then when I stared back
Into your eyes
We had the same expression
Complete surprise
And we're about to let it out
These words from my mouth
He said
Wow, oh wow
Out, right out
Took the words
Right out of my mouth
Out, right out
Took the words
Right out of my mouth
Oh yeah, there's birds up in the trees
Look there's birds up in the trees

5. _ End to the Lies
You sit around there telling stories
Taking chips for old past glories
I had never thought that you'd wake
I'm selling my abstruse missing
Parts that you can't use
That's why I never liked your pity party
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still crying hell
You talk about me so much
That I think that you're in love with me
Yeah, you do, it's true man, your busted
You talk about me to your friends
Or anyone with time to listen
You could never ever be trusted
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still crying hell
End to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies, end to the lies
Now you
You were the foreskin
I was the real head
You were the foreskin
You never really change like they say
Oh, you'll only become more like yourself
He thought he knew me back in the day
When I was down but now I'm still crying hell
End to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies, end to the lies
End to the lies, end to the lies

6. _ Ultimate Reason
I had no life, I had no love
I was a bug
I had no mirror, wore dirty clothes
Over and over
The day I saw her my mind was set
Ooh, I'll never forget
I have not failed her yet
I've got a reason now to live
That love
She's right here beside me
We're high up above
Yeah, I've got a reason now to live
That love
Oh, I've got a reason
Oh it's the ultimate
Ooh, it's the ultimate love
I had to close the distance that
Lay between us
I had a plan that we elope
Upon the jaws of death
And with the roaring sea below
With God as our witness
It all began to hit us
I began to take in
The magical island intoxication
I got a reason now to live
That love
She's right here beside me
We're high up above
Oh, I've got a reason now to live
That love
Oh, I've got a reason
It's the ultimate
Yeah, it's the ultimate
That love, I know
That love, that love
That love, that love
That love
Love, love, love,
That love, that love
That love, that love
That love

7. _ Twisted Tales
I had no mother
I felt no trust
No family structures
Yes, I've been busted
I laid my bed out
In my back seat
Under the stars is
Where I would eat
Ooh sometimes I got lucky, I
I got nailed too, real good
She, she was way over my head
Couldn't help myself
Hid my past from you
To fit in, to fit in with
Ooh and yes get in bed with you
I had to have a way of
Telling tales somewhat twisted
Told you white lies
I used white magic
Need you to know
That I'm not a reject
I've been committed, but
Not for a long time
Long over that and
You can believe it
Ooh sometimes I got lucky, I
I got nailed too, real good
She, she was way over my head
Couldn't help myself
Hid my past from you
To fit in, to fit in with
Ooh and yes get in bed with you
I had to have a way of
Telling tales
Somewhat twisted
Oh somewhat twisted
Oh twisted
Ooh sometimes I got lucky, I
I got nailed too, real good
She, she was way over my head
Couldn't help myself
Hid my past from you
To fit in, to fit in with
Ooh and yes get in bed with you
I had to have a way of
Telling tales
Somewhat twisted

8. _ Irresistible Force (Met the Immovable Object)
We didn't know that it would blow up
With such might
The stars are even brighter
Contrasted by the night
Sent out the shock waves
Filled up the outer space
Even the ghost came
To the late, late, late show
Watch us play
Ooh, everything went tossing
Everyone was talking
Making up their faces
Wonder what we look like naked?
Ah, the irresistible force
Met the immovable object, oh
Ah, the irresistible force
Met the immovable object
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging together
We've become a big business
Oh, a galaxy merger
The two of us a big bang
Yeah, God is a real man
God is a dad, God is a dad
Ah, the irresistible force
Met the immovable object, oh
Ah, the irresistible force
Met the immovable object
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging together
Ah, the irresistible force
Met the immovable object, oh
Some may call me a lucky shot
No, no, no, but it was not
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging
Banging and banging
And banging and banging
And banging together

9. _ Splash a Little Water on It
Oh I have to tip-toe around so as not to make a loud sound, oh-oh
Oh what you put her through look at her tryin' not to wake-up the girl, oh-oh
What was she thinkin' tryin' to keep up with you every habit you have, oh-oh
It's cause she loves you so, don't tell her she not lookin' so good, oh no
Just, splash a little water on it
See what you're working with
Splash a little water on it
And see if it comes alive
Last night oh-oh it almost all went up in smoke
You cannot choke without them knowing
You keep on going
We been drinkin' and smoking til four, five or six in the morning, oh-oh
I take a splash of water to bring me around and get going, oh-oh
You gotta treat her like a flower, man, women need time to recover, oh
I flex at my reflection heading into the town a great hunter, yeah
I didn't want to wake you up, it's over there
I left some water in the cup, on the stand
I'll call you later, oh I just I don't know when
Here's to remind you of your man forever
Splash a little water on it
And see what you're working with
Splash a little water on it
See if it comes alive
Last night oh-oh it almost all went up in smoke
You cannot choke without them knowing
Keep on going
