Lucky 13

Ain't it the truth
Ain't it the truth, now, baby
Ain't it the truth, now
What i say?

Eat watermelon
Eat peaches and cream
Eat ripe tomatoes
You know what i mean.

Ain't it the truth
Ain't it the truth, now, baby
Ain't it the truth, now
What i say?

Your majesty
Your curvaceousness
Your highness
Your soulfulness.

Make love to me, babe
Make love to me
Make me feel all right, now
Make me feel so good.

Boy and girl fall in love
Dreamin' under stars above
Meanwhile push comes to shove
Around the world.

Leaders fall, leaders rise
Terror wears a thin disguise
Not much room for compromise
Around the world.

Surfers from seven seas
Sharing with the submarines
Experts count war machines
Around the world.

People sweat in planted fields
Students study what is real
Someone builds a laser shield
Around the world.

Fashion change, style change
Fashion change, style change
Fashion change, style change.

Hey! what's that you got on?
You're sure looking good tonight!
Where'd you pick that up anyway?
Wow! you're looking beautiful!
Hey! you are somethin' else tonight, so skin tight.
Yeah! come on, lets go out! come on!

Why do we have to hate
Why do we incinerate
Why don't we illuminate
Around the world.

Why don't we illuminate
Why don't we illuminate
Around the world.

Take my advice
Don't listen to me
It ain't paradise
But it used to be
There was a time
When the river was wide
And the water came running down
To the rising tide
But the wooden ships
Were just a hippie dream
Just a hippie dream.

Don't bat an eye
Don't waste a word
Don't mention nothin'
That could go unheard
'cause the tie-dye sails
Are the screamin' sheets
And the dusty trail
Leads to blood in the streets
And the wooden ships
Are a hippie dream
Capsized in excess
If you know what i mean.

Just because it's over for you
Don't mean it's over for me
It's a victory for the heart
Every time the music starts
So please don't kill the machine
Don't kill the machine
Don't kill the machine.

Another flower child goes to seed
In an ether-filled room of meat-hooks
It's so ugly
So ugly.

A funny thing happened yesterday
I felt the pressure in a brand new way
It kept hitting me from all directions
I got this feeling i was cracking up
My knees were shaking and i couldn't close my eyes
I fought to gain control and make corrections
A funny thing happened yesterday
I felt the pressure in a tv way.

Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me.

You watch the box and the video jocks
If you could talk that could even be you up there
That's why you need max head room
Too much pressure for peace on earth
Too much tryin' to get your money's worth
Too much dying
The eldorado, the mercedes benz
The job security that never ends.

Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
Feel pressure from me
Don't feel, don't feel
No pressure from me.

I feel the pressure building every night
One of these days i'm gonna go out like a light
Oh, baby
I feel the pressure building every night
One of these days i'm gonna go out like a light.

I would be feelin' so low
She'd have a new place to go
She'd take me in her arms
And show me all her charms
Until my troubles were gone.

Then when i left her behind
Never a tear could i find
Just a haunting melody
Comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?

Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days and crazy nights?

Now the house is all quiet and still
Coyote house on the hill
How far did i go
Before we said hello
Where is the highway tonight?

Darlin', you'll always be mine
I'll never treat you unkind
But a haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?

Where is the highway tonight?
Where are those old days and crazy nights?

A haunting melody
Keeps comin' back to me
Where is the highway tonight?

mideast vacation


I used to watch "highway patrol"
Whittlin' with my knife
But the thought never struck me
I'd be black and white for life
I was raised on law and order
I a community of strife
Became a restless boarder
And i never took a wife.

I went lookin' for khaddafi
Aboard air force one
But i never did find him
And the c.i.a. said son,
You'll never be a hero
Your flyin' days are done
It's time for you to go home now
Stop sniffin' that smokin' gun.

I was travellin' with my family
In the mideast late one night
In the hotel all was quiet
The kids were out like little lights
Then the street was filled with jeeps
There was an explosion to the right
They chanted "death to america"
I was feelin' like a fight.

So i ran downstairs
And out into the street
Someone kicked me in the belly
Someone else kissed my feet
I was rambo in the disco
I was shootin' to the beat
When they burned me in effigy
My vacation was complete.
