Soul To Squeeze
Red Hot Chili Peppers · Greatest Hits
Up from my brain is where I bleed
Insanity it seems
Has got me by my soul to squeeze
Whit all the love from me?
With all the dying trees I scream:
The angels in my dreams, yeah
Have turned to demons of greed that's me
Where I go I just don't know
I got to got to gotta take it slow
When I find my piece of mind
I'm gonna give you some of my good time
Today love smiled on me
It took away my pain, say please
I'll let your ride be free
You gotta let it be oh yeah
Where I go I just don't know
I got to gotta gotta take it slow
When I find my peace of mind
I'm gonna give you some of my good time
Oh so polite indeed
Well I've got everything I need
Oh make my days a breeze
And take away my self-destruction
It's bitter baby and its very sweet
I'm on a roller coaster
But I'm on my feet
Take to the river lay me on your shore
I'll be comin' back baby I'll be comin' back for more
Do do do do zing go sing a dong bone
Ba di ba da ba zumba crunga cong gone bad
I cannot forget but I will not
endeavor simple pleasures aren't much better
but I won't regret it never
Where I go I just don't know
I got to got to gotta take it slow
When I find my peace of mind
I'm gonna give you some of my good time
Where I go I just don't know
I might end up somewhere in Mexico
When I find my peace of mind
I'm gonna keep it for the end of time
