Stone Cold Bush

Red Hot Chili Peppers · Mother's Milk [1989]

she's stone cold bush yea

and baby that's alright

she's stone cold bush yea

and that's alright with me



get up off your knees, come on walk with me

tell me what you need to get along

a statue come to live

i cut you with my knife

bleeding to the tune of dolly dagger

she's stone cold bush

she's stone cold bush



yea yea yea yea yea



haight street got nothing to show

except the skirt on your ass

when you're livin' on the streets

you've got to let it roll

get on with what you've got

aw everybody knows that it's alright

you've got no secrets to tell

but when you smoke that rock and suck that c*ck

you do it oh so well

she's stone cold bush

she's stone cold bush



she's stone cold bush yea

and baby that's alright

she's stone cold bush yea

and that's alright with me



she's got marble eyes

sweet china doll her thighs

an animal in pain she starts to cry

her pipes are open wide

she blows more than my mind

echo the sounds of soul

time after time

she's stone cold bush

she's stone cold bush
