Never Is A Long Time lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

If I stole it all, or hesitate

The world would always never seems to wait

A comedy that could be so divine

Never is a long time

A shadow born to steal the light of day

You woke me up and said come on let’s play

But now I know this never had between 

You are, you are the star within

The far, the far, the far away

The law that caused it all to stay

By you, by you, by you, by you, for you, I do

I thought I done it all, I thought I knew

But nothing ever looked as clear as you

Now every never that I knew was fine

But Never is a long time

Now I share this feeling in my yang

Stolen good time, always give away

A never that will always wonder what the star will say

From far, from far, from far away

The law that caused it all to stay by you, by you

By you, by you

A baby clapping on your dress, will always have a place I guess, by you, by you

I’m in love, and we could bless the pleasure of my child’s best

Lonely books and tenderness, to rescue me from emptiness

You are, you are the star within

The far, the far, the far away

The law that caused it all to stay

You are, you are, the star within

The far, the far, the far away, it all, it all, it all to stay

Love Of Your Life lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Sat on a cliff wondering what did I miss

I watched the waves come in,

Roll in, roll out, without a single doubt

Lone on the bluff, is there ever enough

I stare into the air, somewhere out there,

The family affair, bring home the night

There I know that you turn off the light

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

She gave me the love, she gave the love

Coming up short and I’m sad to report, with us invite tonight

Your kiss, my kiss, another day to waste

Lovers don’t miss, when they can’t even face a plot that has a twist

To share, my prayer, I need my baby bed,

Come home tonight

Whoa

There I know that you turned off the light

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

There I know that you turned off the light

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

Love of my life

There I know that you turned off the light

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

There I know that you turned off the light

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

There I know that I waited so long

The-e-e-re so slow but you gave me the love of my life

Oh she gave me the love of my life

Tell ‘em Frank, go ahead

The Sunset Sleeps lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Floozies at the rainbow
Superstars that won’t get far
Who is who that we know
Coochie coo is at the bar

Do you really love
Do you love do you love
Do you want to make the call
We all long, we all fall

Shoelace for the sirens
Groupies and the tyrants ply

Do you really want
Do you want do you want
Do you want to have it all
We all long, we all fall

I’m so tired
Well I get by
But I could use a few
I’m so tired
That I slept
Along the way

Suitcase of perception
Rhinestones and redemption cries

Do you really love
Do you love do you love
Do you want to make the call
We all long, we all fall

I’m so tired
The sun beats down
Upon my lonely face
I’m so tired
That I slept
Along the way

Do you really love
Do you love do you chase
Do you take this town today
We all long, we all face

I’m so tired
Well I get by
But I could use a few
And I’m so tired
That I slept
Along the way

The sun beats down
Upon my lonely face
A perfect world
with all its perfect places
I could use a few
For just in cases

And I’m so tired
That I slept
Along the way

Hometown Gypsy lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Drivin’ up the coast

To find a version of the truth

Left the backdoor swinging

Like a dirty little sleuth

The truth is I have never

Felt half this alive

Now it’s time to dance

Upon the grave called 45

Jacked up on some Kerouac

And surely bullet proof

The girl who taught me what to do

Was missing her front tooth

Gentle as a storm

Inside your mental health

I wanna find the answer

But I just can’t find myself

I say so long

To the way I played

The way I played

Inside of yesterday

Hey let’s run around

The great escape

From out of my hometown

Later I would look for love

Inside a woman’s dorm

A couch to keep me humble

And her breath to keep me warm

Ophelia was the girl

That I was feeling for

Come to realize

It was me who was the whore

A captain lost himself

Inside a 40 year old skull

The drink of choice was knowledge

And we always wanted more

Drunken sailors

Seeking their Geronimo

Instead they found the things

That they really didn’t wanna know

I say so long

To the way I played

The way I played

Inside of yesterday

Hey let’s run around

The great escape

From out of my hometown

Country roads

Would never let me stay

The way I played

Inside of yesterday

A devil’s growl and cat’s meow

Were blended into one

Termites called suburbanites

Were eating all the fun

A juggernaut of comedy

And blasphemy

I wanna stop the madness

But I think it has to be

I say so long

To the way I played

The way I played

Inside of yesterday

Hey let’s run around

The great escape

From out of my hometown

Country roads

Would never let me stay

The way I played

Inside of yesterday

Hey let’s run around

The great escape

From out of my hometown

Pink As Floyd lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Say what you need to say

Make it clear

Make it great

Cause it's not too late

And there's no mistake

When you shine

Shake it for me anyway

Now we crash the gate

To investigate

Your fate

Pleasure to meet you

Got so much more

To offer the world

See what's in store

Stay all day

Someone to love

That's my boy chip chop

Open the doors

And we never close shop

Stay all day

And you shine as you redefine

Your time, just another time of day

Do you feel the spark

When you play the part?

Superstar

Fake it for me anyway

Time to tell them all

Without hem or haw

No applause

Tell them how to generate

How to raise the bar

How to keep it hard

To be alive, make it for me anyway

If you care at all

You will bare it all

You will grind, shake it for me anyway

Born to play the part

Dying for your art

Cause it's time

Take it for me anyway

You will clear the air

With a single stare

Your fate

Take what you need to take

To forsake

Make it for me anyway

When we fill the void

That is Pink As Floyd

To destroy

Records that we file away

And I clean the slate

As we calculate

Your fate

Your Eyes Girl lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

I’m afraid that I’m never afraid

I’ve got combat boots

And I’m American made

For your eyes girl

Mormon lover on a delicate day

Gonna marry the boss

Get carried away

War cries girl

I’m not immune to Canadian snow

Now teach me everything

That I should know

With your eyes girl

Freeze on the radio

I’ve got to leave and more

Freeze on the radio

I’ve got to bleed into snow

Hold on

Let go

We know

Do you shine like a temple inside

Can I open your core

So gentle and wide

Like your eyes girl

Rack ‘em up stretch ‘em out

When they’re tight

This acetylene torch is giving me sight

War cries girl

Black and blue from the hullabaloo

Do the caribou bite

When they look into you

And your eyes girl

In Love, Dying lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

In love dying

There’s a flawless rain

In love dying

One foot in the astral plane

Someone’s sighing

There’s a virgin road

Waiting to be strode

Rope’s untying

This power I could not withhold

Satisfying

What do we contain

Can’t stop crying

These tears of change

Remain the same

My girl she shoots down

The baddest of guys

She knows that they

Want me dead

She fires up the starry night

And fills them so full

So full of lead

In love dying

Does it go two ways

In love dying

This body I can not detain

Wake up flying

She the solar shores

Passers buying

The memories we readorn

In love dying

Nothing to obtain

In love dying

No crawling thru

The halls of fame

In love dying

Loss becomes the gain

In love dying

Recreate me

So I may sustain

Catch My Death lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Death

Let me catch what's left

Let me see what's left

Let me see what's true

Do I really want to

Run from my depths

Will I have regrets

Will I ever find you

Will I ever find words

That give me motive to express

Bread

Will I go unfed

Will I be the one who rushed on in

To where angel fear to tread

Was it me who bled

On the new death bed

And there is no fear

When you're leaning on love

Those grateful dead

[Chorus]

Someone like you

To research the meaning of love

Someone, I do

To be there when push comes to shove

The ending, the must

Chess

Let me play my rest

When I do regress

Let it all unwind

To the board unless

Less I second guess

Look into the sky

Where we all comply

With something higher than the

Rest my love, sail through

[Chorus]

Sky all around

Fell to the ground

Now I'm a child

Stayed for a while

Flesh

Is it meaningless

But we all protest

To the last request

Is there anything you

could now suggest

Did I do my best

Did I leave it better

Even though we look to be

Just mildly obsessed with you

Sail through

[Chorus]

Someone like you

To be there

How It Ends lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Love is all the world

You say the world is gone

Love is all the world

You say it's gone

I don't

The party in your eyes

Says someone to caress

A party in the sky

I think I'll wear a dress

God saves us all and tell us how it ends

Laugh till we fall so why can't we be friends

Mother taught me what to do in cocktail times

Work and play all day until the sun is high

Haley and the comets sang an old rock jam

The ukulele play another song I'll brag

God saves us all and tell us how it ends

Laugh till we fall so why can't we be friends

Stole a lot from Peter

Cause had to pay your Paul

And when you find that's not enough

He'll break your fall

Some get on and some

Get off the carousel

I think it's time to go

So I will fare thee well

God saves us all and tell us how it ends

Laugh till we fall so why can't we be friends

Stole a lot from Peter

Cause had to pay your Paul

And when you find that's not enough

He'll break your fall

This Is The Kitt lyrics - Red hot chli peppers

This is the kitt, I can't compare

A delicate new arrival

Check the commute I do declare

Lets sing a new revival

Chemical circus at the pub

Mentally she's departed

Cut me a check I'll cut your rug

Later we'll get bombarded

'Cause everybody knows

The game is full of highs and lows

Like your mother said

Girl your father is dead

Everybody knows

That life is full of highs and lows

Is there always red

In your wedding bed

Everybody knows

Officer please I just got there

Traveled from door to door

Haven't you seen my girlfriend's hair

What are we looking for

'Cause everybody knows...

This is the kitt I can't compare

A delicate new arrival

Check the commute I do declare

I think we have our bible

'Cause everybody knows...

Take me to the shore

Show me what it's for

Is there always red

In your wedding bed

Everybody knows

The game is full of cons and pros

Like your mother said

Girl your father's dead

Everybody knows

Brave From Afar lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Brave from afar

When I hold you for country

Saved by a star

Can I hold you to one thing

Do you feel safe when

They tell you they sell you

Pray for your children

The shelter they're building

Prime time, the perfect crime

Bow my head, the axe we grind

Ruse cruise, P's and Q's

I got beat up by the evening news

Deep hits, the media blitz

Lost my mind to keep my wits

Maintain the same old same

Goodbye shiz and so long game

Brave from afar

When I hold you for country

Saved by a star

Can I hold you to one thing

Do you feel safe when

They tell you they sell you

Pray for your children

The shelter they're building

Plain Jane, the big campaign

Last detail has been restrained

Fraud, fraud, the lightening rod

See that sign, time to applaud

Brave from afar

When I hold you for country

Saved by a star

Can I hold you to one thing

Do you feel safe when

They tell you they sell you

Pray for your children

The shelter they're building

Hanalei lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Feeling good and I don’t know why

Another day and another high

I walk around like I am on the ray

Somewhere way in the rays of Hanalei

I met a girl and I liked her vibe

Another day and another ride

I met a girl who wants to save the world, save the world

Make it safe for someone else to find their faith

I’m away I’m away... Hanalei

A simple song and it made me cry

I really don’t want to pass me by

A simple song that spoke of Hemmingway

The revolution in your blood creates the wave

I picked her up on the road to surf

Looked a lot like a mother earth

She said hello my name is Charlotte Gray, hey

Make it safe for someone else to find their faith

I’m away I’m away... Hanalei

Open/Close lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

So we were down in Brazil and, man, that place is wild.

We were in Rio de Janeiro, and uh, we had this, this sort of, uh,

security-guard type guy, and he was supposed to take us around and say hey,

could, you know, could you take us to the,

the favelas and show us the prostitution and the drug deals and the night fights and the,

you know, the street life of your town, and he said sure, so we, we pull up to this hooker,

and she's wearing some kind of a, a bright green miniskirt, and it turns out it's a transsexual,

and he says "Get over here!" and she comes over and she thinks she's busted, but she's not busted.

Naw, she's not busted, he just wanted to smack her on the ass a few times and say "Hey, what's up, girl?"

Get out of bed and I clear up my head and I don't want to go but I do it instead

We all dream within a dream 

Get into bed and I turn off my head,

and I started to float but I sunk when she said, "we're all dreams within a dream"

So I remember we got our driver's license, and my friend Hillel had this little Dodson, painted green, and...

Hollywood would get so crazy in the winter--the rains would come and the hills would just kind of melt down into the city lights,

and, well, you know, we smoked weed and we'd go up in the hills and we'd listen to progressive rock music and just kind of trip out and...

well, we would dream, you know, we would dream, and we would talk about what we wanted to do, and we would talk about girls and music,

and, you know, Hillel wanted to be a rock star--I didn't even know what that was, I was like, whatever you wanna do, man, I'm coming with you.

I'm right with you, my friend. 

Get out of bed and I clear up my head and I don't want to go but I do it instead

We all dream within a dream 

Get into bed and I turn off my head,

and I started to float but I sunk when she said, "we're all dreams within a dream"

(La la la...)

Why in the world would you want it to be--why would you wanna take it so... so literally? 

All these things that come down from the sky, raining upon your head, make you stop and wonder why--ah! 

Can't they just spell it out, make it clear, make it easy to read for the simple man like me? 

I don't think so 

I reach out to my family and I say 

It's not about religion and the God sitting in a chair in the sky with a punishing hand, oh

It's about heaven in your heart 

Now when shall we start? 

I wanna choose love instead of fear

Won't you come right now over here and be a part of my... 

(Ah)

This time

I love you

Monarchy Of Roses lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

The crimson tide is flowing through your fingers as you sleep

The promise of a clean regime are promises we keep.

Do you like it rough I ask and are you on to task?

The calicoes of Pettibon where cultures come to clash

[Chorus:]

Several of my best friends wear, the colours of the crown

And Mary wants to fill it up, and Sherry wants to tear it all back down, girl

The saviour of your light

The monarchy of roses

The monarchy of roses tonight

The clothes between my former queen, her legendary stare

The holy tears that I am in, the lovely cross to bear

[Chorus:]

Several of my best friends know, the secrets of this town

And Mary wants to raise it up, and Sherry wants to spit it all around, girl

The sailors of the night

The monarchy of roses

The monarchy of roses tonight

[Chorus:]

Several of my best friends wear, the colours of the crown

And Mary wants to fill it up, and Sherry wants to tear it all back down, girl

The saviour of your light

The monarchy of roses

The monarchy of roses

Hey yeah

We all want the rose you know

I said

Hey yeah

Show us love before you go

Say I will, and then I say I want to

The story knows that I will never haunt you

Hey yeah

We all want the rose you know

I said

Hey yeah

Show us love before you go

Say I will, and then I say I want to

The story knows that I will always haunt you

Hey
