Woke Up With A Monster

Have you changed your world
You changed your view
Cause what you see
Is black and blue
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a new york night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said "hey there honey do you like what you see"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues
We sleep at night
On a bed of nails
All i know
Baby's got some thrills
White on the left
Black on the right
Nothing seems to fit
On a new york night
Have you heard the news
Are you talking to me
I said "hey there honey do you like what you see"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yeah you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues

All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

You can drink my whiskey, get high all night;
Play my guitar, well, that's all right.
Give you my money, never get it back.
Take what you want as a matter of fact.
You can have anything, anything except...
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where i draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Promise her cocaine, reds, whites and blues.
If i catch you doing that shit,
I know you're gonna lose.
Like a copy cat killer lacks originality.
Yeah, a lousy cliff irving tryin' to plagiarize me.

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where i draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Well, one of these days, and it won't be long.
Ain't the same old line from a rock- 'n' -roll song.
If long tall sally ever talked like that,
You can take what you want as a matter of fact.
You can have ev'rything, anything except...

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
That's where i draw the line.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine.

Don't try, steal my girlfriends.
Oo, i love her a lot, yeah, yeah, yeah

My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
It's all that i've got.
It's all that i've got.
It's all that i've got, oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
My girlfriends, my girlfriends.
Don't try, steal my girlfriends.

If i could have what i want i'll just want what i've got
I told myself a million times that's the truth but it's not.
I could give you some lessons on how to cry all night
I know the hurting's only started and it might never stop

[oh angeline] you want some help from me now
Now since he left you alone.
Don't say it ain't so, [you betray people here]
It's not so long ago that

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything.

So pardon me if i don't cry 'cause your love is on the shelf
After all, you're so good at looking out for yourself
You might hate me for saying so but that's all right
You can hate the whole world but it ain't gonna help.

[oh, angeline] you're only wasting your time
Looking for my sympathy
I hope you're satisfied ' cause i only wanna laugh
When i hear you cry

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
Now he's done it to you
Like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything

I guess you never thought that you'd be falling in love
You've lost everything that you're dreaming of
I can't let you go without letting you know

You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything

Baby tell me everything (everything to me)
Baby tell me everything
Someone did it to you like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything.

Time will let you know
(robin zander/brian o. who)

Look at you and look at me
Now what are we supposed to be
We
