Strange Man lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

All of my love and most of my fears
Been coming on strong for most of my years
Add up and end up in a song

Cellophane tweeds and revenue streams
Are blocking my shots and killin' my dreams
That showed me how to be the cause

Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, hey ah what now?

It's a lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time, for me, I see
She wants to belong and, I want to be free
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee

Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, yeah

All of my friends and enemies
They were part of this dance
That put me right here we go
So glad I got this chance

Better known plans and lesser known schemes
Were all about love and less about me
I'd have to say she wore the pants

That's oh!

It's the lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time for me, uh-huh
She wants to belong and, I want to be free
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee

Woo! Yeah
Ahh
Go
Oh
I've been left
[?]

It's a lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time, for me, lets see
She wants to belong and, I want to be free
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee

It's a lifetime of a strange man, that's me
It's a long time, for me, uh-uh
She wants to be rich and, I want to be free
Keep your plans elastic 'cause there ain't no, guarantee

Long Progression lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Smile when I'm shy in ways, but I love
everything of first impressions--
sweet successions.

Been around for quite a while. I see you kept it versatile.
Motivated to combine. Even when it's bad, it's fine.
Did she say something that made you cry?
Have you lost it all--the big fall?
Oh, so slowly, comes back holy.

Bishop takes a knight, but I will put up quite a fight.
Oh, here's your ham on rye.
Elementary, the chemistry means everything to me.
Long progression's why.

Set it off to collect knowledge. Quit a job, and go to college.
All about the aftershock. Swedish, Latin, super Funk.
Moses of Manhattan made it great--
pain we celebrate.
And I love--
the long progression, indiscretion.

Bishop takes a knight, but I will put up quite a fight.
Oh, here's your ham on rye.
Elementary, the chemistry means everything to me.
The long progression's why.
In between the reasons are the psychedelic seasons.
Oh, simple as your stride.
Information intimated, elegant and integrated.
Sweep your floors with pride.

Smile, 'cause it's all a ride--all supplied.
And I love everything about this session and this long progession.

Bishop takes a knight, but I will put up quite a fight.
Oh, here's your ham on rye.
Elementary, the chemistry means everything to me.
The long progression's why.
In between the reasons are the psychedelic seasons.
Oh, simple as your stride.
Elementary, the chemistry means everything to me.
The long progression's why.

Magpies On Fire lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Magpgies on fire
Making love like little
Worms out on the porch can
Leave the medicine
Oh well I'm game
For anything at all

Scarecrows a liar
Spends the year alone
No one checked it out
To see if it was real
Sold you the moon
And now it's time to fall

All in all it's like the
Bird who's trapped alone inside the cage
Love

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

All in all it's just
A call of something wise beyond your room
There's a changing of a major chord
Your minor threat will do, love

My gun misfired
Shot myself instead I guess
I always knew I'd be the one to lose
Last scream don't slane
Time to make a move

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

All in all it's like the
Bird who's trapped alone inside the cage
Love
A bird who's going to live at half your age, girl
A bird who's never really here to say

What more do you want?
How much more can you take?
I love my mistakes
I've been here before

Least of all she's like
A bird who's now been
Freed from someone's cage

Victorian Machinery lyrics - Red hot chili peppers

Jaded
You're my victorian machinery
Leave yourself to lie
Later
Your tender shape is pinning like the scenery
Ride you like a bike

You be the sailing baby, I'll be the rudder
We could make it all in
'Till it turns into butter
I saw your face
A seminal pleasure, I will love you forever
When I heeded your call in every heavy endeavour
I'll keep your place

Jaded
Coming down the mouth, you're like a buffalo
In your eyes
Crazy
But then again, I'll cook you like your you know
Makes up for her size

You be the sailing baby, I'll be the rudder
We could make it all in
'Till it turns into butter
I saw your face
A seminal pleasure, I will feel you forever
When I heeded your call in every heavy endeavour
I'll keep your place
Be yourself
When I
You be the shark (shack)
And baby I'll be the desert
There is nothing to like
When there is nothing to measure
It's all our space
Whoooh

You are my victorian machinery
Nah nah nah nah nah
Jaded
Make a fist and knock me on the mood again
Leave yourself to lie
Later
Make me feel like I want more than you again
Rock me like the vibe
Crazy
Sing along just like they do in Budapest
On the rise

You be the shark (shack)
And baby I'll be the desert
There is nothing to like
When there is nothing to measure
It's all our space

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
