Young Lust
(Tyler/Perry/Vallance)
Young lust
Happy just to be in lust
Never have to eat no dust
Everybody talk about
Young lust
You're dyin' and you're screamin' inside
Oh you're guilty way before you been tried
It's crazy but you're diggin' it
Young lust
You feel it in the summertime blues
Oh, easy when there's nothin' to lose
And baby you been missin' out
Young lust
Sometimes you need it so bad
It's enough to drive a young girl mad
So what you gonna do about it
A little bit o' nasty
You look a little sleazy
But don't get any on you
Young lust
You better keep your daughter inside
Or she's gonna get a dose of my pride
Yeah, everybody talks about it
Young lust
Once you had it you can never go back
Don't you ever let 'em give you no slack
When you're streakin' down the alley way
Checkin' out the ladies
Who didn't bring their boyfriends
Who love to get in trouble
I got to say I'll see you later, meet me in the elevator
Always gettin' stronger
Never gettin' weaker
My love is gettin' longer
I'll keep it in my sneaker
Never keep a secret
Never feelin' guilty
Never gettin' lonely
Never gettin' no peace, hidin' from the police
Sneakin' out the back way
Sneakin' down the alley way
Gotta do it my way
Do it in the sunshine
Hangin' from the clothesline
Find another tree to climb
Young lust
There's no time for lovin'
Young lust
No, don't need one in the oven
Young lust
I'm a-pushin' and a-shovin' it
Young lust
Come on now I just can't wait
Are you fishin' or you gonna cut bait
Everybody body doin' it
Young lust
Honey now ain't it a bitch
Sometime you gotta scratch that itch
So what you gonna do about it
F.I.N.E.

Monkey On My Back
(Tyler/Perry)
Woe is me
Well I been dyin'
Got to get that monkey off my back
The fortune teller looked into my eyeballs
The wrinkles on her face about to crack
She said you best believe it, you ain't goin' nowhere
Unless you get that monkey off your back
Well, I made believe the devil made me do it
I was the evil leader of the pack
You best believe I had it all and then I blew it
Feedin' that fuckin' monkey on my back
Ahh, if you put it in a spoon man I would boot it
Some king whose mental house was just a shack
Where do you draw the line
When all your friends are dyin'
Got to get that monkey off your back
Your crystal ball is where you chase the dragon
She said now bring me home his head inside a sack
But now you find your crystal balls are draggin'
Got to get that monkey off your back

The Other Side
(Tyler/Vallance)
Lovin' you's got to be (take me to the other side)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea (take me to the
other side)
Forget about your foolish pride (take me to the other
side)
C'mon, take me to the other side (take me to the other
side)
My mama told me there'd be days like this
And man she wasn't foolin'
'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss
Uh huh
You opened up your mouth with baited breath
You said you'd never leave me
You love me, you hate me, I tried to take the loss
You're cryin' me a river but I got to get across
Lovin' you's got to be (take me to the other side)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea (take me to the
other side)
Forget about your foolish pride (take me to the other
side)
C'mon, take me to the other side (take me to the other
side)
I'm lookin' for another kind of love
Oh lordy how I need it
The kind that likes to leap without a shove
Oh honey, best believe it
To save a lot of time and foolish pride
I'll say what's on my mind, girl
You love me, you hate me, you cut me down to size
You blinded me with lovin' yeah it opened up my eyes
Lovin' you's got to be (take me to the other side)
Like the devil and the deep blue sea (take me to the
other side)
My conscience got to be my guide (take me to the other
side)
Oh honey take me, take take ...
(Take me to the other side )
I'm lookin' for another kind of love
Oh lordy how I need it
The kind that likes to leap without a shove
Honey, you best believe it
Now I ain't one for sayin' long good-byes
I hope all is forgiven
You love me, you hate me, I used to be your lover
You know you've had it comin' girl so take me to the
other side
Take me to the other side
Take me to the other side
My Girl
(Tyler/Perry)
My girl, she breathes hellfire
And my girl, she feeds my desire
My girl Sadie she's the wind in my sails
A puss n' boots lady with a cat o' nine tails
Comin' after you honey, feet don't fail me now
My girl, she's bareback rider
And my girl, she's Lady Godiva
She's a full-time lover no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honey bee
And it all rubs off on little old me-oh-my
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
Slippin' in and out of love
My girl, she smokes barbed wire
And my girl can't get no higher
I made it with the lady with the one-track mind
Diamonds in the rough they're so hard to find
Day after day, the same old grind and grind and grind...
My girl
Don't Get Mad, Get Even
(Tyler/Perry)
I'll tell you little secret
make you want to jump and shout
When you talk to me in circles
take your foot out of your mouth
It's hard enough to make
it when you're livin' on the street
And you want to tell somebody
but you got to be discreet
Then you catch your girlfriend
with her skirt hiked up to here
Honey, don't get mad, get
even
Don't get mad, get even
Don't get mad, get even
Don't get mad, get even
Say the times they be a-changin'
though the blind lead the blind
You know your head is empty
though there's somethin' on your mind
Been shackin' up with Lucy,
then when the morning comes
You're with Sally in the
alley and the junkies and the bums
You wonder why your girlfriend
has her skirt hiked up to here
Honey, don't get mad, get
even
Don't get mad, get even
Don't get mad, get even
Don't get mad, get even
(...'til I can see the white
o' your eyes, baby...)
(...I'm gonna kick ass...)
(...just wait 'til you see
what I got in store for you)
Roll the dice get lucky 'cause
they roll you for the dime
You got nothin' else to lose
if you only lose your mind
When pleasure that is shallow
causes trouble to be deep
You've been dusted with the
devil while he sweeps you off your feet
I'll tell you little secret
make you want to jump and shout
When you talk to me in circles
take your foot out of your mouth
It's hard enough to make
it when you're livin' on the street
And you hate to be a wiseguy
when your feet are in concrete
Oh, sleepin' with the dogs,
and you wake up with the fleas
Honey, don't get mad, get
even
VooDoo Medicine Man
(Tyler/Whitford)
Soft and shaded, I was left as a child
Dragged from the cradle, I was weaned in the wild
Ran with the wolfpack, flesh torn to shreds
In the compensations, I was left there for dead
Read it in the paper it ain't fair
You know who today don't seem to care
Livin', lovin', gettin' loose
Masturbatin' with a noose
Now someone's kickin' out the chair
Some kind of voodoo
Come across this land
Some kind of voodoo
Voodoo medicine man
Everybody's lookin' at the sky
Don't believe the coverups and lies
They been tellin' us since birth
Pissin' off old Mother Earth
My gones are bygones prophesied
Some kind of voodoo
Come across this land
Some kind of voodoo
Voodoo medicine man
Get ready
Wonder should I go or should I stay
'Cause what we got ain't workin' anyway
I did my best, God knows I tried
I feel like I been crucified
Why did you take it all away
Voodoo, voodoo, medicine man
What It Takes
There goes my old girlfriend
There's another diamond ring
And, uh, all those late night
promises
I guess they don't mean a
thing
So baby, what's the story?
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the
bed that we made?
When you don't look back
I guess the feelings start to fade away
I used feel your fire
But now it's cold inside
And you're back on the street
Like you didn't miss a beat,
yeah
Tell me what it takes to let
you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed
to go
Tell me how it is that you
can sleep in the night
Without thinkin' you lost
everything that was good in your life to the toss of
the dice?
Tell me what it takes to
let you go
Yeah
Girl, before I met you I was
F-I-N-E fine
But your love made me a prisoner
Yeah, my heart's been doin'
time
You spent me up like money
And then you hung me out
to dry
It was easy to keep all your
lies in disguise
'Cause you had me in deep
with the devil in your eyes
Tell me what it takes to let
you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed
to go
Tell me how it is that you
can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost
everything that was good in your life to the toss of
the dice?
Tell what it takes to let
you go
Guitar!
Tell that you're happy that
you're on your own, yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell me that it's better
when you're all alone
Tell me that your body doesn't
miss my touch
Tell me that my lovin' didn't
mean that much
Tell me you ain't dyin' when
you're cryin' for me
Tell me what it takes to let
you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed
to go
Tell me how it is that you
can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost
everything that was good in your life to the toss of
the dice?
Tell me who's to blame for
thinkin' twice
No, no, no, no 'cause I don't
wanna burn in paradise
Ooo, let go, let go, let go,
I don't wanna burn in paradise
Let it go, let it go, let
it go, let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go,
Let it go, let it go, let
it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
I don't wanna burn, I don't
wanna burn
