The Mighty Quinn

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others are jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

I like to go just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and makin' haste, just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees, feedin' pigeons on a lim
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Let me do what I wanna do, I can't decide 'em all
Just tell me where to put 'em and I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep, there's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna wanna doze

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Rehab

They tried to make me go to rehab I said no no no,
Yes I've been black but when I come back no no no,
I ain't got the time, and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
They tried to make me go to rehab I won't go-go-go

I'd rather be at home with Ray
I ain't got 70 days
'Cause there's nothing, there's nothing you can teach me,
That I can't learn from Mr Hathaway
Didn't get a lot in class
But I know it don't come in a shot glass.

They tried to make me go to rehab I said no no no,
Yes I've been black but when I come back no no no,
I ain't got the time, and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
They tried to make me go to rehab I won't go-go-go


The man said "why do you think you here?"
I said I got no idea,
I'm gonna, I'm gonna lose my baby,
So I always keep a bottle near.
He said "I just think you're depressed,
This me here, baby, and the rest."

They tried to make me go to rehab I said no no no,
Yes I've been black but when I come back no no no,
I ain't got the time, and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
They tried to make me go to rehab I won't go-go-go


I don't never want to drink again
I just, ohh, I just need a friend
I'm not gonna spend ten weeks
Have everyone think I'm on the mend
It's not just my pride
It's just till these tears have dried


They tried to make me go to rehab I said no no no,
Yes I've been black but when I come back no no no,
I ain't got the time, and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
They tried to make me go to rehab I won't go-go-go

Take The Box

Your neighbours were screaming
I don't have a key for downstairs,
So I punched all the buzzers
Hoping he would be there
And now my head's hurting
You say I always get my own way
But you were in the shower when I got there,
And I don't wanted to stay,
But I got nothing to say
You were so beautiful before today
And then I heard what you say man that was ugly
The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Frank's in there and I don't care
(Put it in the box, put it in the box)
Just take it
Take the box
Take the box
I came home this evening and nothing felt like how it should be
I feel like writing you a letter but that is not me, you know me
Feel so damn angry don't wanna be reminded of you
But when I left my mess in your kitchen,
I said goodbye to your bedroom and it smelled to you
Mr False Pretense, you don't make sense
I just don't know you
But you make me cry, where's my kiss goodbye?
I think I love you

In My Bed

Wish I could say it breaks my heart
like you did in the beginning
Its not that we grew apart
a nightingale no longer singing
Its something I know you cant do
separate sex with emotion
I sleep alone the sun comes up
your still clinging to that notion
Every thing is slowing down
river of no return
recognize my every sound
there is nothing new to learn
you'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night, in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where I'm going
oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familiar face
but that don't make your place safe
in my bed my bed my bed
I never thought my memory
of what we had could be intruded
but I couldn't let it be
I needed it as much as you did
Now its not hard to understand
why we just speak at night
The only time I hold your hand
is to get the angle right
Everything is slowing down
river of no return
you recognize my every sound
there's nothing new to learn
you'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where I'm going
oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familiar face
but that don't make your place safe
in my bed

Fuck Me Pumps

When you walk in the bar,  
And you dressed like a star,
Rockin' your F me pumps.
And the men notice you,
With your Gucci bag crew,
Can't tell who he's lookin' to.
Cos you all look the same,
Everyone knows your name,
And that's you whole claim to fame.
Never miss a night,
Cuz your dream in life,
Is to be a footballers wife.
You don't like players,
That's what you say-a,
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire.
You don't like ballers,
They don't do nothing for ya,
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller.
You're more than a fan,
Lookin' for a man,
But you end up with one-nights-stands.
He could be your whole life,
If you got past one night,
But that part never goes right.
In the morning you're vexed,
He's onto the next,
And you didn't even get no taste.   
Don't be too upset,
If they call you a skank,
Cuz like the news everyday you get pressed.
You don't like players,
That's what you say-a,
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire.
Or them big balers,
Don't do nothing for ya.
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller,
You can't sit down right,
Cuz you jeans are too tight,
And your lucky its ladies night.
With your big empty purse,
Every week it gets worse,
At least your breasts cost more than hers.
So you did Miami,
Cuz you got there for free,
But somehow you missed the plane.
You did too much E,
Met somebody,
And spent the night getting cane.
Without girls like you,
There'd be no fun,
We'd go to the club and not see anyone.
Without girls like you,
There's no nightlife,
All those man just go home to their wives.
Don't be mad at me,
Cuz your brushing thirty,
And your old tricks no longer work.
You should have known from the job,
That you always get dumped,
So dust off your fuck me pumps.
