Peter Distefano

Ain't been twelve, a couple of hours
I'm on the freeway
Rain's so hard, the sky's one color
The wettest, coldest grey
Then she takes a look at me
I tell her it's okay
Driving around with her
She's taking trips on me
I'm taking trips on her
Left the sunset back in Venice
I was on the freeway
Say you love me or I'll kill us!
But you won't say it
Reach across the seat and push the bucket back all the way
Driving around with her
She's taking trips on me
I'm taking trips on her
I fell in love with her
I just don't mention it
To fall in love this much, it's very dangerous
I want to kill us both...
She makes me so jealous!
She makes me so jealous!
It's very dangerous...
It's very dangerous!

i got the devil in me
it's just a cloud
it's sadness
it's just a cloud
then I find compassion
and I find
it vanishes
these thoughts I have they seem
to pass me by
like a cloud

i was praying
it's a cloud
hope it's just another name
for a prayer
it's just a cloud

i want to find some laughter
when you laugh they can't kill you
these thoughts i have they seem
to pass me by
like a cloud

fuel and release!
happiness is good for an hour
fuel and release!
happiness is good for an hour

i hate him for all the things he's done!
because i love her so!
i got the devil in me!
it's sadness!
it's just a cloud

got some bad shit
then i walked the beat in venice

i went outside
i been in too long
outside
for some inspiration
did the G-O
did the No-Go
there were stars
there were flies
even the flies dropped like...
what do flies drop like?
stars

but i didn't go down

i went outside
i thought i was a chinese blues player
outside
been in too long
did the G-O
did the No-Go
there were stars
there were flies
even the flies dropped like...
what do flies drop like?
stars

but i didn't go down

cursed to be born
beautifil, poor and female
there's none that suffer more

she's the queen of the bees
that buzz in the bars
fresh as a strawberry
and she always loved dancing

cursed to be born
beautifil, poor and female
there's none that suffer more

2 girls in 2 nights
got caught in the back of
the alleyway
fresh as strawberries
2 girls in 2 nights
when no one came out
zipped up their clothes
and walked back on home

cursed to be born
beautifil, poor and female
there's none that suffer more

Children are innocent
a teenager's fucked up in the head
adults are even more fucked up
and elderlies are like children

will there be another race
to come along and take over for us?
maybe martians could do
better than we've done
we'll make great pets! X8

my friend says we're like the dinosaurs
only we are doing ourselves in
much faster than they
ever did
we'll make great pets! X8

ever since the riots
all i really wanted
was a black girlfriend
they don't play around
they're hard enough
to keep any man in line
thinking of my pale white skin
thinking of her dark and smooth
she against me
my black girlfriend

saw her on the corner
where she lived, i asked her
"can you braid my hair?"
she and her girlfriends
laughed at me, said that
"it was easy but it'll cost you some"
looking out her window
it's so exciting and foreign
but i'm staying with
my black girlfriend

drivin' thru the hood
in my chevy nova '62
my arm around my
little black girl
people on the corner
looking in my car
wanna do me
but i won't give her back
my little black girl
"do you wanna come on in?
do you wanna eat some?
meet my family?"
my black girlfriend
