A child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch,
and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away,
and he was
Talkin’ ‘fore I knew it,
and as he grew, he said:
I’m gonna be like you, dad,
You know I’m gonna be like you

And the cat’s in the cradle, and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, son,
I don’t know when
But we’ll have a good time then, dad
You know we’ll have a good time then.

My son turned ten just the other day,
he said
Thanks for the ball, dad,
come on let’s play
Can you teach me to throw,
I said not today,
I got a lot to do,
he said that’s okay
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed,
he said
I’m gonna be like him, yeah
You know I’m gonna be like him.

And the cat’s in the cradle, and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, son,
I don’t know when
But we’ll have a good time then
You know we’ll have a good time then.

Well he came from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
Son I’m proud of you,
can we sit for a while?
He shook his head, and said, with a smile
What I’d really like, dad,
is to borrow the car keys
See ya later, can I have them please?

And the cat’s in the cradle,
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, son,
I don’t know when
But we’ll have a good time then, dad
You know we’ll have a good time then.

I’ve long since retired,
my son’s moved away
I called him up just the other day.
I said, I’d like to see you,
if you don’t mind, he said
I’d love to, dad,
if I could find the time.
You see my new job’s a hassle and the kids got the flu
But it’s been sure nice talkin’ to you, yeah
Sure nice talkin’ to you.
And as I hung up the phone it occured to me,
He’d grown up just like me, yeah.
My boy was just like me.

And the cat’s in the cradle,
and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, son,
I don’t know when
But we’ll have a good time then, dad
You know we’ll have a good time then.

Sweet little lady, don’t you get crazy. Bring it back home to me.
Woman little standing, dreaming to forget him. Bring it back home to me.
When, why wonder? Brown-eyed Stunner, Come on bring it home to me.
Kiss a little dozen, fishing for your lover, won’t you bring it down home to me.

See a drill on fire, she’s a dog in heat.
She licks her lips with a passion, in the third degree.
See a dirty old lady, with a school girl’s scream
Break a back for the daddy, oh, when she does her thing.

She loves like heroin, she kills the pain.
Call it what you wanna, call it danger honey, you said; gimme back, nicotine.
Never wanna hold you, never wanna scold you, I bet she’s takin’ away from me.
Never will commend you, or ever reprimand you when you bring it back home to me.

Can’t take candy from a baby, when your baby gives it up for free
She just puts around being lazy, but still she brings her lovin’ to me.
Don’t need nothin’ to save me, save for a piece of your luxury,
Lock the door but you’ll never cage it. I’ll tell you just how its gonna be.

I call your lover in the morning, when you have your cup of tea.
You never give me a warning, so you better give it right up for me.
Guess who’s comin’ over, on your thinks they’re such a surprise.
If you say you’ve never known her, honey, you better open your eyes. Look out.

See a drill on fire, she’s a dog in heat.
She licks her lips, with a passion, in the third degree.
See a dirty old lady, with a school girl’s scream.
Break the back of her daddy, when she does her thing.

Can’t take candy from a baby, when your baby gives it up for free.
She just gets around being lazy, until she brings her lovin’ to me.
I don’t need nothin’ to save me, save for a piece of your luxury.
Lock the door but you’ll never cage me. I tell you just how i ts gonna be.

I call your lover in the morning, when you have your cup of tea.
You never give me a warning, so get yourself ready for me.
Ohh, where’re you going, tell me; Who’re you to see?
I’ll be sleeping on your doorstep, baby, till you bring it back home to me.

Can’t keep something from a jealous mind, you don’t get something for free.
What’s it gonna gonna come to, you just bring it down home ot me. HaHaHa

(Rose)

We all come in from the cold
We come down from the wire
An everybody warms themselves
to a different fire
When sometimes we get burned
You’d think sometime we’d learn
The one you love is the one
That should take you higher
You ain’t got no one
You better go back out and find um

Just like children hidin’ in a closet
Can’t tell what’s goin’ on outside
Sometimes we’re so far off the beaten track
We’ll get taken for a ride
By a parlor trick or some words of wit
A hidden hand up a sleeve
To think the one you love
could hurt you now
Is a little hard to believe
But everybody darlin’ sometimes
Bites the hand that feeds

When I look around
Everybody always brings me down
Well is it them or me
Well I just can’t see
But there ain’t no peace to found
But if someone really cared
Well they’d take the time to spare
A moment to try and understand
Another one’s despair
Remember in this game we call life
That no one said it’s fair

Breakdown
Let me hear it now
Breakdown
let me hear it now
Yeah
Breakdown
Let me hear it now
Breakdown
let me hear it now
Get down with yo’ bad self
Alright

I’ve come to know the cold
I think of it as home
When there ain’t enough of me to go around
I’d rather be left alone
But if I call you out of habit I’m out of love and
I gotta have it
Would you give it to me if I fit you needs
Like when we both knew we had it
But now the damage’s done
And we’re back out on the run
Fun how ev’rything was roses
When we held on to the guns
Just because you’re winnin’
Don’t mean you’re the lucky ones

Breakdown
Let me hear it now
Breakdown
Yeah
Breakdown
Breakdown
Let me hear it now

“There goes the challenger being chased
By the blue blue meanies on wheels
The vicious traffic squad cars are after
our lone driver
The last American hero
The-the electric sintar
The demi-god,
The super driver of the golden west!
Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind
The beautiful lone driver
The police cars are getting closer-closer…
Closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile
Yeah baby!
They about to strike, They gonna get him,
Smash! Rape!
The last beautiful free soul on this planet

But…it is written if the Evil Spirit arms the Tiger with claws
Brahman provided wings for the Dove
Thus spake the Super Guru” *
“Did you hear that”
