Back To Black
He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet with his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry, get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked, I'll go back to black.
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
I go back to us.
I love you much
It's not enough, you love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside.
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.
Black, black, black, black
Black, black, black...
I go back to
I go back to.
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black.
Me and Mr Jones
Nobody stands in between me and my man
It's me and Mr. Jones
What kind of fuckery is this?
You made me miss the Slick Rick gig
And thought I didn't love you when I did
Can't believe you played me out like that.
No, you ain't worth guest list
Plus one of all them girls you kiss
You can't keep lying to yourself like this
Can't believe you played yourself like this
Ruler's one thing, but come Brixton
Nobody stands in between me and my man
'Cause it's me and Mr. Jones
What kind of fuckery are we?
Nowadays you don't mean dick to me
I might let you make it up to me
Who's playing Saturday?
What kind of fuckery are you?
'Side from Sammy, you're my best black Jew
But I could swear that we were through
I still wonder 'bout the things you do
Mr. Destiny, nine and fourteen
Nobody stands in between me and my man
'Cause it's me and Mr.Jones
Yeah
Yeahhhh
Just Friends
When will we get the time to be just friends
It's never safe for us not even in the evening
'cos I've been drinking
Not in the morning where your shit words
It's always dangerous when everybody's sleeping
And I've been thinking
Can we be alone?
Can we be alone?
When will we get the time to be just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends
And no I'm not ashamed but the guilt will kill you
If she don't first
I'll never love you like her
Though we need to find the time
To just do this shit together
For it gets worse
I wanna touch you
But that just hurts
When will we get the time to be just just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
Just friends
Valerie
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things of what you're doing
In my head I paint a picture.
Since I've come home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I miss your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress.
Oh, won't you come on over?
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie
Did you have to go to jail?
Put your house out up for sale?
Did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didn't catch a tan,
Hope you find the right man
Who'll fix it for you.
Are you shopping anywhere?
Change the color of your hair
And are you busy?
Did you have to pay that fine
That you were dodging all the time?
Are you still dizzy?
Since I've come home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I miss your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress.
Oh, won't you come on over?
Stop making a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over, Valerie?

Love Is A Losing Game
For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game.
Why do I wish I never played
Oh, what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game.
Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand.
Self professed... profound
Till the chips were down
Know you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand.
Though I'm rather blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love is a fate resigned.
Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game.
Addicted
Tell your boyfriend next time he around
To buy his own weed and don't wear my shit down
I wouldn't care if bre would give me some more
I'd rather him leave you then leave him my draw.
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours.
Once is enough to make me attack
So bring me a bag and your man can come back
I'll check him at the door make sure he got green
I'm tighter than airport security teams.
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours.
I'm my own man so when will you learn
That you got a man but I got to burn
Don't make no difference if I end up alone
I'd rather have myself a smoke my homegrown
It's got me addicted, does more than any dick did.
Yeh I can get mine and you get yours
Yeh I can get mine and you get yours.
You Know I'm No Good
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull T-shirt
You say "why did you do it with him today?"
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray.
'Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like Roger Moore.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good.
Upstairs in bed with my ex-boy
He's in a place, but I can't get joy
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes.
Run out to meet your chips and pitta
You say when "we're married",
'Cause you're not bitter
"There'll be none of him no more"
I cried for you on the kitchen floor.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good.
Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub, you on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet.
Then you notice a likkle carpet burn
My stomach drop and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good.
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was troubled
Yeah, you know that I'm no good.
Alcoholic Logic
(Swing back and forth
A beautiful thing
Taking you away
My head is spinning)
My girl
Tried to stop me
But I had
A taste of you
Unfamiliar
Surroundings
Left me wanting
Something new
Physical
Ain't even my type
But you're one
Of a kind
So subconsciously
On purpose
I left my coat behind.
I can't help it
Need to stop it
All that I put
Myself through
Everyone
Is so denying
Yeah, yeah
It's nice
To meet you, too.
I hate
My alcoholic logic
As I write
This on the train
Victoria's Secret
In my bag
And my thighs
Ache again
Last night tips
Into my mind
Through the puddle
In my head
I always get
What I want
I think I even said.
I can't help it
Need to stop it
All that I put
Myself through
Everyone
Is so denying
Yeah, yeah
It's nice
To meet you, too.
Although I enjoyed it
I should have tied up
My loose ends
But I left my jacket
With you
And you know my friends
So maybe
You will get my number
Or ask them
When I'm ached down
But I may have
Forgotten you
By the next time
I'm in town.
I can't help it
Need to stop it
All that I put
Myself through
Everyone
Is so denying
Yeah, yeah
It's nice
To meet you, too.
Know You Now
You're just a little boy underneath that hat
You need your nerve to hide your ego don't come with that
You think everything is handed to you free
But it's not that easy, no.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then.
My girl says I'm too sensitive to ride with you
But I'm not listening to her, mm hm
Yes I'm perceptive so when
I've dance with you you'll whisk your head back the way it were
As you were.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then.
Oh, I'm not ruling you out
I'm just in doubt as to what you say you're all about, yeah.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta show you now and them
I gotta know you now and then.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again.
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again.
Wake Up Alone
It's okay in the day I'm staying busy
Tied up enough so I don't have to wonder where is he
Got so sick of crying
So just lately
When I catch myself I do a 180
I stay up clean the house
At least I'm not drinking
Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking
That silent sense of content
That everyone gets
Just disappears soon as the sun sets.
He gets fierce in my dreams
Seizing my guts
He floats me with dread
Soaked to the soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone.
If I was my heart
I'd rather be restless
The second I stop the sleep catches up and I'm breathless
This ache in my chest
As my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now
My blood running cold
I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me
I drip for him tonight
Drowning in me we bathe under blue light.
He gets fierce in my dreams
Seizing my guts
He floats me with dread
Soaked to the soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone.

Rehab
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 'no, no, no'
Yes, I've been black, but when I come back
You'll know-know-know
I ain't got the time
And if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab
But I won't go-go-go.
I'd rather be at home with Ray
I ain't got seventy days
'Cause there's nothing
There's nothing you can teach me
That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway.
I didn't get a lot in class
But I know it don't come in a shot glass.
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 'no, no, no'
Yes, I've been black, but when I come back
You'll know-know-know
I ain't got the time
And if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab
But I won't go-go-go.
The man said "why do you think you're here?"
I said "I got no idea.
I'm gonna, I'm gonna lose my baby,
So I always keep a bottle near."
He said "I just think you're depressed,
Kiss me here, baby, and go rest."
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 'no, no, no'
Yes, I've been black, but when I come back
You'll know-know-know.
I don't ever want to drink again
I just, ooh, I just need a friend
I'm not going to spend ten weeks
And have everyone think I'm on the mend.
It's not just my pride
It's just 'til these tears have dried.
They tried to make me go to rehab
But I said 'no, no, no'
Yes, I've been black, but when I come back
You'll know-know-know
I ain't got the time
And if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab
But I won't go-go-go.
In My Bed
Wish I could say it breaks my heart
like you did in the beginning
Its not that we grew apart
a nightingale no longer singing.
Its something I know you cant do
separate sex with emotion
I sleep alone the sun comes up
your still clinging to that notion.
Every thing is slowing down
river of no return
recognize my every sound
there is nothing new to learn.
You'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night, in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where I'm going
oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familiar face
but that don't make your place safe
in my bed my bed my bed.
I never thought my memory
of what we had could be intruded
but I couldn't let it be
I needed it as much as you did.
Now its not hard to understand
why we just speak at night
The only time I hold your hand
is to get the angle right
Everything is slowing down
river of no return
you recognize my every sound
there's nothing new to learn.
You'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where I'm going
oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familiar face
but that don't make your place safe
in my bed, my bed, my ba ba dee dee bed.
No Greater Love
There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you
No sweeter song, no heart so true.
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing, sing to me.
You're the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone.
There is no greater love
In all the world, it's true
No greater love
Than what I feel for you.
Tears Dry On Their Own
All I can ever be to you,
Is a darkness that we knew
And this regret I got accustomed to
Once it was so right
When we were at our high,
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
I knew I hadn´t met my match
But every moment we could snatch
I don't know why I got so attached
It's my responsibility,
And You don't owe nothing to me
But to walk away I have no capacity.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own.
I don't understand
Why do I stress a man,
When there's so many bigger things at hand
We could have never had it all
We had to hit a wall
So this is inevitable with drawl
Even if I stopped wating you,
A perspective pushes through
I'll be some next man's other woman soon.
Ah can I play myself again?
Or should I just be my own best friend?
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own.
So we are history,
Your shadow covers me
The skies above a blaze.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own.
I wish I could say no regrets
And no emotional debts
'Cause as we kissed goodbye the sun sets
So we are history
The shadow covers me
The sky above a blaze
That only lovers see.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
My blue shade
My tears dry on their own.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
My deep shade
My tears dry on their own.
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I'm grown
And in your way
My deep shade
My tears dry.
Stronger Than Me
You should be stronger than me
You've been here seven years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man?
Not pale in comparison to who you think I am
You always wanna talk it through - I don't care
I always have to comfort you when I'm there
But that's what I need you to do - Stroke my hair
Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy.
You should be stronger than me
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey
Why'd you always put me in control
All I need is for my man to live up to his role
You always wanna talk it through - I'm okay
I always have to comfort you every day
But that's what I need you to do ? Are you gay?
Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy.
He said the respect I made you earn
Thought you had so many lessons to learn?
I said you don't know what love is, get a grip
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script?
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy.
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me.
Fuck Me Pumps
When you walk in the bar,
And you dressed like a star,
Rockin' your F me pumps.
And the men notice you,
With your Gucci bag crew,
Can't tell who he's lookin' to.
Cuz you all look the same,
Everyone knows your name,
And that's you whole claim to fame.
Never miss a night,
Cuz your dream in life,
Is to be a footballers wife.
You don't like players,
That's what you say-a,
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire.
You don't like ballers,
They don't do nothing for ya,
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller.
You're more than a fan,
Lookin' for a man,
But you end up with one-nights-stands.
He could be your whole life,
If you got past one night,
But that part never goes right.
In the morning you're vexed,
He's onto the next,
And you didn't even get no taste.
Don't be too upset,
If they call you a skank,
Cuz like the news everyday you get pressed.
You don't like players,
That's what you say-a,
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire.
Or them big balers,
Don't do nothing for ya.
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller,
You can't sit down right,
Cuz you jeans are too tight,
And your lucky its ladies night.
With your big empty purse,
Every week it gets worse,
At least your breasts cost more than hers.
So you did Miami,
Cuz you got there for free,
But somehow you missed the plane.
You did too much E,
Met somebody,
And spent the night getting cane.
Without girls like you,
There'd be no fun,
We'd go to the club and not see anyone.
Without girls like you,
There's no nightlife,
All those man just go home to their wives.
Don't be mad at me,
Cuz your brushing thirty,
And your old tricks no longer work.
You should have known from the job,
That you always get dumped,
So dust off your fuck me pumps.
