Attitude Adjustment

Aerosmith · Nine Lives

This girl I knew
She loved me and blew me away
We made love no doubt
But she never went out of her way

I keep wonderin´, I keep wonderin´ why
Do the wings of your butterfly
Lightnin´ thunder
I keep wonderin´ why

Hey I think you need am attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
I got to make myself a latitude adjustment
With or without

I was rather naive
So I didn´t believe when you said
Our love is in jail
Honey you hit the nail on the head

I keep wonderin´, I keep wonderin´ why
Do the wings of your butterfly
Lightnin´ thunder
I keep wonderin´ why

Hey I think you need am attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
Don´t you ever baby, wonder where the lust went
With or without

Now I know what it is
Cause I know what you are
No more cryin´ eyes my friend
Excusem fuckin´ moi

No more wonderin´
I got news for you

Hey I think you need am attitude adjustment
Knock-down drag out
I got to make myself a latitude adjustment
I'm headin´ south

Yeah I think you need am attitude adjustment
From inside out

Attitude Adjustment

Released in 1989 on the album Nine Lives, 'Attitude Adjustment' stands as a quintessential example of Aerosmith's hard rock and new wave of British influence era. The track features the band's signature blend of gritty vocals and driving guitar riffs, capturing the raw energy that defined their late 1980s catalog. While the song does not reach the chart heights of their earlier hits, it remains a staple of their live performances and a testament to their enduring ability to craft anthemic rock tracks. The recording reflects the band's continued evolution during a period where they balanced commercial success with artistic experimentation, solidifying their status as a cornerstone of American rock history.
