O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | Been beat up and battered around. Been sent up and I've been shot down. You're the best thing that I've ever found. Handle me with care. Reputation's changeable. Situation's tolerable. But Baby you're adorable. Handle me with Care. BRIDGE: I'm so tired of being lonely. I still have some love to give. Won't you show me that you really care. CHORUS: Everybody's got someone to lean on. Put your body next to mine and dream on. I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled. I've been robbed and ridiculed. In day care centers and night school. Handle me with care. Been Stuck in airports, terrorized. Sent to meetings, hypnotized. Over-exposed commercialized. Handle me with care. BRIDGE: I'm so tired of being lonely. I still have some love to give. Won't you show me that you really care. CHORUS: Everybody's got someone to lean on. Put your body next to mine and dream on. I've been uptight and made a mess. But I'll clean it up myself, I guess. Oh, the sweet smell of success. Handle me with care. BRIDGE: I'm so tired of being lonely. I still have some love to give. Won't you show me that you really care. CHORUS: Everybody's got someone to lean on. Put your body next to mine and dream on. Will the soul survive ultimately Oh, will peace ever be found When I drag my feet on hallowed ground I don't wanna know what the future will hold I don't wanna pray cause I'm lost anyway [Email]spitfire@opieanthony.com">E-Mail Me This message was edited by spitfire421 on 7-24-01 @ 3:20 PM | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 00 | Tweeter and the Monkey Man were hard up for cash They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash To an undercover cop who had a sister named Jan For reasons unexplained she loved the Monkey Man Tweeter was a boy scout before she went to Vietnam And found out the hard way nobody gives a damn They knew that they found freedom just across the Jersey Line So they hopped into a stolen car took Highway 99 And the walls came down all the way to hell Never saw them when they're standing Never saw them when they fell The undercover cop never liked the Monkey Man Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can Jan got married at fourteen to a rackateer named Bill She made secret calls to the Monkey Man from a mansion on the hill It was out on thunder road - Tweeter at the wheel They crashed into paradise - they could hear them tires squeal The undercover cop pulled up and said "Everyone of you's a liar" If you don't surrender now it's gonna go down to the wire And the walls came down all the way to hell Never saw them when they're standing Never saw them when they fell An ambulance rolled up - a state trooper close behind Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree Near the souvenir stand by the old abandoned factory Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit He was taking the whole thing personal He didn't care about the loot Jan had told him many times it was you to me who taught In Jersey anything's legal as long as you don't get caught And the walls came down all the way to hell Never saw them when they're standing Never saw them when they fell Someplace by Rahway prison they ran out of gas The undercover cop had cornered them said "Boy, you didn't think that this could last" Jan jumped out of bed said "There's someplace I gotta go" She took a gun out of the drawer and said "It's best if you dont' know" The undercover cop was found face down in a field The monkey man was on the river bridge using Tweeter as a shield Jan said to the Monkey Man "I'm not fooled by Tweeter's curl I knew him long before he ever became a Jersey girl" And the walls came down all the way to hell Never saw them when they're standing Never saw them when they fell Now the town of Jersey City is quieting down again I'm sitting in a gambling club called the Lion's Den The TV set been blown up, every bit of it is gone Ever since the nightly news show that the Monkey Man was on I guess I'll to to Florida and get myself some sun There ain't no more opportunity here, everything's been done Sometime I think of Tweeter, sometime I think of Jan Sometime I don't think about nothing but the Monkey Man And the walls came down all the way to hell Never saw them when they're standing Never saw them when they fell Funny how ev'rything was roses When we held on to the guns Write To Me Here Sweet Mother Mary, so many say they've seen you But if I'm shown, I promise I'll lie Cause most things are meaningless, the more you get to know them Down here love is the only gun I trust This message was edited by SLASH on 7-24-01 @ 6:10 PM | ||||
