Bad Boy Nick 04:22
[Verse 1] Sitting in the pocket of the paradigm Dancing to the beat, or jamming, I don't mind Bee-Bop-A-Lula's gonna cast her spell on the funky monks in the citadel Sipping to the finger trigger of James Bond Bad Boy Nick is gonna keep his just as long as Nikola Tesla gets the grade To be the only one that saves (Oh, and I wonder) [Verse 2] One, two, run gotta get away Mama Lue-Belle's coming out to play She always seems to read between the lines where the who is what, and the where is why Bitter old friends seem to decay when the music turns on they turn away So we're only left with you and him my mother's brother and the seven sins [Chorus] I don't know where I could find A place that sells positive vibes Give me a time, and a place to meet and I know I'll be complete [Verse 3] Get up go, it's a brand new day But it's been lonely since you've been away and I haven't seemed to make amends with the Morris Dancers and their stoner friends Take my cut of the cash we've made I don't want to be the only blame See, I'm only into paper notes so please just leave, and don't evoke. [Chorus] I don't know where I could find A place that sells positive vibes Give me a time, and a place to meet and I know I'll be complete [Acoustic Chorus] I don't know where I could find A place that sells positive vibes Give me a time, and a place to meet and I know I will I'll be complete [Chorus] I don't know where I could find A place that sells positive vibes Give me a time, and a place to meet and I know I'll be complete [Bridge] Let it shine, don't let it go It's to be seen but not to show I know where you can find a place that sells our positive vibes (x2) [Chorus] I don't know where I could find A place that sells positive vibes Give me a time, and a place to meet and I know I'll be complete

I don't answer a knock at my door and I just leave it for tomorrow There's dead leaves left on the floor Broken hearts that I still follow [Chorus] I'm running through the trees Screaming "I'm free, I'm free" Our sun rose out of lies and now our flame has surely died [Verse 2] She filled the clouds with her broken, black rain Soliloquies of Shakespeare's pain I put myself in a cave she seized In a darkened wood encased in trees [Chorus] I'm running; can't you see? Screaming "I'm free, I'm free" Our sun rose out of lies and now our flame has surely died [Bridge] I can't believe I couldn't see One year you were poisoning me One year with disease x4 [Verse 3] I set the coordinates for the final location I was numb and your explanation To reasons why we we're far apart was backing arrogance from the start [Chorus] I'm running through the trees Screaming "I'm free, I'm free" Our sun rose out of lies and now our flame has surely died [Breakdown] It's for me or you, it's for you to choose I could stay or be gone for you x4 [Chorus] I'm running through the trees Screaming "I'm free, I'm free" Our sun rose out of lies and now our flame has surely died out Running can't you see? Screaming "I'm free, I'm free" Our sun rose out of lies and now our flame has surely died.

Had a dream, and it felt so right Loving you's my only light, yeah Contaminated, epoxied my sight Established martyr, publicity kite [Pre-Chorus] I see you baby Just walking around What we had won't hide this "X" on the ground [Chorus] So why, why, why, why Why won't you see, babe You know, know, know that it's true When you pass by me I get this feeling When you hear this song, you know it's for you [Verse 2] Like I'm tripping and my body's slipping straight through your lies Integrated fragments laced with fatal delights 20/20 vision never blocked out my sight [Pre-Chorus] I see you lady Just walking around What we had won't hide this "X" on the ground [Bridge] and I don't wanna know (I don't wanna, wanna know) Come and steal the show (Come out and see me! Come and steal the show) It's getting harder, and harder, but there's no disaster Bending out of reach Oh, you're sucking on my brain You're a sodding leach [Chorus] So why, why, why, why Why won't you see, babe You know, know, know that it's true When you pass by me I get this feeling When you hear this song, you know it's for you(x2)

I see your words gun through me, feel them burn You think I'm lazy, that I should have learned Take a look at mine and you may find I know a place were light can't shine I've been here for years and not come out She thinks I'm lazy that I'm worst set-out That I don't listen I am just a pawn That these scars wash off if you scrub hard [Verse 2] I feel no worry, I'm a social toy A daydream-lover, but it's all a ploy A walking compact who can't seem to think as I wash the pain down with a drink Time after time I sing these lines Hoping in the end I'll turn out fine We're all just lovers in a masquerade a lonely player upon a stage [Chorus] Kiss me Tell me just what you need Give me You know that you will receive I've mastered a face as cold as ice Read me and you will have to read twice (Alright, Alright, Alright) [Verse 3] It's going down and crashing to the floor It wasn't me who wanted moral war But people pick and choose opposing sides and leave the innocent standing double-blind but as the truth comes out the fog does clear Saboteurs amongst the hidden seers It's just a game that we all like to play destroying confidence day by day [Verse 4] A boat came down and carried me ashore There was no pain in my heart anymore I know that grace forgives and washes clean all the pain that had once smitten me The people sing and laugh hoorah, hoorah The only thing that stops is a locked jaw So carry me to my own promised land and burden me no more I take your hand! [Chorus] Kiss me Tell me just what you need Give me You know that you will receive I've mastered a face as cold as ice Read me and you will have to read twice(x2) Kiss me!
