Tricky
|
Can't be with the one you love
|
Then love the one you're with
|
Spliff in the ashtray
|
Red Stripe I pull the lid
|
Her touch tickles, especially when she's gentle
|
But I don't hear words cos I saw the instrumental
|
Keep the girl at a distance, could lose her very easy
|
No sunshine in my life
|
The way I deal is shady
|
|
3D
|
Skip hip data to get the anti-matter
|
Blue lines are the reason why the temple had to shatter
|
To the sound of silence surrounded by the mass
|
Her face is on the paper
|
Not the strangers that I pass
|
The ones that looking back to see if they are looking back at me
|
|
Daddy G
|
Are you predator or do you fear me?
|
|
3D
|
-You wanna do a medicinal?
|
The place I really wanna go
|
The one I love but never gets near me
|
|
Tricky
|
I'ts a beautiful day, well it seems as such
|
Beautiful thoughts means I dream too much
|
Even if I told you, you still would not know me
|
Tricky never does
|
Adrian also gets lonely
|
How we live in this existence, just be
|
English upbringing
|
background Carribean
|
|
3D
|
|
Sharing a soliliquy
|
We cut the vocal drop the flexability
|
Walk a temper 'cause I'm rated comatose
|
No sunshine in my life cos the way I deal is hazy
|
Life from day to dazey cos I'm on my toes
|
Mi chiamo 3D, si, e sono inglese
|
|
Tricky
|
It's a looking glass she's looking through
|
She hated me, but then she loved me too
|
I'd lie not try so I lost faith
|
They turn to her to keep the faith
|
She told me "Take an occupation or you lose you're mind"
|
And on a 9 to 5 lemon, looking for the lime
|
|
3D
|
Box clever, watch your sister come together
|
Crazy weather at the end of my tether
|
|
Daddy G
|
Massive in the area
|
Murderer
|
Attack are in the area
|
Murderer
|
|
3D
|
Some go softly softly when I have a tat
|
Ratchet in the right hand
|
They got the one to stab it at
|
Take a walk Billy, don't be a hero
|
Effort's are minimal they're almost at zero
|
Excommunicated from the brotherhood of man
|
To wander lonely as a puzzled anagram
|
|
Carve me blue, green ?brumma? and zinc
|
Take it to extremities with purple and pink
|
I feel the colours fill my room beneath the patter of the rain
|
I can't stand the drops they're dripping down my windowpane
|
They wash away my shadow and don't even leave a spark upon my soul
|
They leave the rainbows in the dark
|
|
Tricky
|
Blues get big, Massive are even larger
|
Save no space into the Tricky tardis
|
Withdraw what I saw from down in Darris Hall
|
People laying their claim
|
In stormy weather it's rain
|
|
3D
|
But you're living on a see-saw
|
|
Tricky
|
I try to see more
|
|
3D
|
Somebody died. Did he?
|
No body
|
Walking on sunshine, but still we're treading water
|
The son of many reasons searching for the daughter
|
Seeking knowledge, not acknowledging the jetset
|
Sample babies soft sounds in my budakon headset
|
The solar system watches in wisdom
|
The children dance as the moonlight kissed them
|
|
Tricky
|
Massive attack not black up here or where I be
|
Two hours traveling so I wrote this on Rapide.
|
Always living fast, people getting jumpy
|
Where on ?gruggy? falls I do the walter crumpy
|
Microphones held close, crouching far apart
|
Take my piece of mind and sign my name across your heart.
