Lightning Strikes
( Richie Supa )
The boys in the Dukes are ready to rumble
The word on the street some heads are gonna tumble
Blades gonna flash when the street gangs clash
On this Avenue at night
When the lightning strikes
Zip gun Johnny's finger is itchin'
Oh the lid's gonna blow up in Hell's Kitchen
It's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
They're so ruthless when they fight
When the lightning strikes... Ooooo
And it's a free for all in the parking lot
Tell me who will rule the street
And the night explodes
When the cops bring down the heat
And the chains they crash like thunder
While the weak ones all retreat
Gotta draw first blood
Or they'll read'chor funeral rights
When the lightning strikes
Uum... it's dog eat dog when you're meetin' your rival
In the combat zone it's a means of survival
Don't get last licks on a suicide blitz
On a cloak and dagger night
When the lightning strikes
Ooo... it's a free for all in the parking lot
Over who'll rule the street
And the night explodes
When the cops bring down the heat
And the chains they crash like a thunder
While the weak ones all retreat
Gotta draw first blood
Or they'll read your funeral rights
Oooo ooo...
When the lightning strikes
When the lightning strikes
When the lightning strikes
Can'tcha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
Can'tcha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
Cant'cha cant'cha cant'cha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
Cant'cha cant'cha cant'cha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
Cant'cha cant'cha cant'cha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
Cant'cha cant'cha cant'cha hear the thunder
When the lightning strikes
SO much confusion about the first line but...
I recently contacted Richie Supa on facebook...
yes, the very same Richie Supa who wrote the song
for the boyz... here's his reply...
"Hey Tommy... this is the first line to
Lightning Strikes. 'The boys in the Dukes are
ready to rumble.' That's official coming from me!
Best, Richie"
Too fuckin' cool of him to reply right!!
Thanx Richie from ALL of us... for clearing that up.
That's Richie below on stage with Steven in 1980
and then with Steven & Jimmy Crespo in 1979.
Richie was apart of so many of the songs
along the way. Great guy!
Bitch's Brew
( Tyler / J. Crespo )
I tell you a thing
Foxy little flirt
I caught'choo in the briar patch
Liftin' up your skirt
Well let me tell ya
What'choo been doin' in the briar patch
What'choo been doin' wit' your little snatch
Got a pussy with a big demand... makin' magic
Uuum... you're foolin' with the bitch's brew
You know the things I warned you not to do
Ya fell into the briar patch
Ain't nothing gonna save your ass
Remember the things you said
Your savin' your scream for bread
And now you just want to play
So take it and play... all the way
Aar... you're fooling with the bitch's brew
That ain't the thing you oughta fool... with
Now you keep your fingers outta there... honey
You know that ain't no... fair
The way that'choo read me
The Taro cards are the way you deal
The way of the witches sight
And all the things that you bite
(Good God)
You've been messin' with the bitch's brew
Now dont'choo know who you're talkin' to
Said'chor talkin' to the bitch's who
Tell me you really never cared
Now voodoo made eyes of fire
A who do men most desire
The bitches are out n' smooth
Tell from the light of the moon
(Yodle-lay-lay-lay yeah yeah yeah)
(C'mon Trigger)
(C'mon horsey)
I've been thinkin'
Ran my hands through the sands of time
Yeah and I've been drinkin'
Just to make this here song rhyme... yea
(Oooo what the hell ya wanna do)
(I've been drinkin' with the... hi...)
Aaa... you're foolin' with the bitch's brew
Now don't you don't you don't you don't you
don't you don't you don't you

Bitch's brew bitch's brew

Bitch's brew bitch's brew
Bitch's brew bitch's brew
Bitch's brew bitch's bitch's bitch's
Bolivian Ragamuffin
( Tyler / J. Crespo )
Packed up your troubles in your old kit bag
You gotta dance to the tune of Bolivian Ragamuffin
Outtake's short breaks
Love her 'til the earth quakes
Standin' on the seashore lookin' at the city
See the street light dog bite your lady on the titty
At the wax museum and nobody cares to see themselves
As others care to see you but nobody wants to be you baby... yeah yeah yeah
Can't break cabbage head
Try and get a salad made
Hold the pickle hold the lettuce
Special orders don't upset us
Kickstand face looks so evil like knievel
Never make third base like a toilet bowl weevil
Like a squatez vous and a domo arigato
Tip my hat to you rock 'n roller obbligato... yeah yeah yeah
Stage show chorus line smoke a bone (or bowl) I'm feelin' fine
Girls in heat will try and get us
Hash in bones (or bowls) won't upset us... ha ha ha haaaa
He need cash... kick in the pants
Salt 'n bone... come on and dance
Blame it all... snake on Eve is a trance
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
Ain't gonna do it... ain't gonna do it
And then sounds that only our rock 'n roll hero Steven Tyler could ever make!
knievel is of course the world famous motorcycle daredevil Evil Knievel... it's just an amazing arrangement of words in this sentence isn't it.
domo arigato is a Japanese phrase meaning "Thank you very much"
squatez vous is French and means "you squat". So I gotta think that if
you put it into the context of the song and Steven's dirty mind... he's thanking some chick for squating on his face!! Ya just gotta love the fuckin' guy... LoL
obbligato is an Italian word meaning an important section to a piece of music that can not be left out. So I guess he's just using a play on words to describe an awesome musician
Bones & hash in bones means adding hash to a rolled joint. Bone is slang for a joint. At first it sounded like they were lighting up a "bowl" of weed... ya know... a pipe! And adding hash to a bowl... but I'm hearing "bones" now! But either one fits... so take your pick! I saw on Jimmy Crespo's website... he has the lyrics to this song posted... and he has "bowls"... but I'm still hearing bones! He did give me the "salt 'n bone" & "snake on Eve is a trance" line... very cool!!
Cry Me A River
( A. Hamilton )
Now you say you're lonely
You cried the whole night through
Well you can cry me a river cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well you can cry me a river cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well you can cry me a river cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me nearly drove me outta my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember I remember all that'choo said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you was through with me and...
Now you say you love me
Well just to prove you do
C'mon and cry me a river cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over...
(yah yah yeah yah yah yeah...)
Plebeian: A commoner or commonplace
Prelude To Joanie
( Tyler )
At first we three thought
'Twas the biblical cord of life
Then noticing 'twas connected to his head
How strange not to believed
I reached out to feel and the pony's eyes opened
The cord got hard the head looked around
And you know who pushed and gushed
The waters of life
First two hooved feet then the shine of his fur
But at first to my eyes only
Feather feathers wings
The butterflies flew up in such colors
Exploding all around us
The rest I did not notice 'til there he stood
All eyes in wonder
Who me
Who you
Look
Joanie's Butterfly
( Tyler / J. Crespo / J. Douglas )
In water still
The night I met the pony
It was so dark that I could hardly see
It smelled so sweet near you know who and Joanie
So many butterflies one could not see
We all could feel desire
Took off in flight
It was hotter than fire
Then came the light
Oooo oooo
Now smell the heat
The dancing pony unwrapped his wings
To dry off Joanie
The pony he grew in size
In thunder and rain
And finally realized
A what he was and what he does
And what he couldn't say
And left to kiss the cheek of Mother Nature
Nobody here can be denied such things
Make the ladies you love cum honey
No butterfly should be denied it's wings
He were a kick ass rockin' horse
He like a hell bent tied to the gavin pole
It was a one time fantasy
I got the bare bones fly into the Holy Land
Bare back flyin' like a ruddered man
Nightmares and he can't hold a candle to my dreams
Yeah... yeah
We rode the night
And took to wing
It was so alright
It was everything
We flew into burning skies
The thunder and rain
And finally realized
What he is and what he does
And what he couldn't say
Oh no no...
Took off in flight
Oh no no...
Then came the light
Flashback something coming over me
No sweat one time fantasy
Bare boned and all that is the wind it seems
Hell who's the chick
That rides into my dreams
No livery
No stable lights
No try to please
Nobody's eyes
Will never see us again
In time it'll pass
And where did it all begin
But all in good time
Somebody shot an arrow
Now tell me tell me tell me tell me never
Wakin' me 'cause you're cold sometimes
Being seduced will be your own pleasures
What be his muse may be what he must find
He was a kick ass rockin' horse
He was a one horned unicornucopia
Two two in Utopia
Three star verge into infinity
Four... (four)
Four... (more)
Fore (fore)
Na na na na na
Oooo oooo...
Rock In A Hard Place
(Cheshire Cat)
( Tyler /J. Crespo / J. Douglas )
It was a take it or a leave it
Kinda Saturday night
I wish I could love you 'til the cows come home
And make it right
If it's a make believe I say it ain't
And tell you then
'Cause if it's a dream I'm in please wake me up
And smile again
Oooo close your eyes and whata ya see
Oooo nothing can happen to you
If you only believe in me
She was a real time ana - lyzer
No conniver
Hard talkin' floozy
Late night arriver
A second hand rose
Smilin' like a cheshire cat
Said it was in and out and up and down the earth shall move
Maybe a certain situation only you see I'm who
Putting the ring around the rose n' pull the daisy chain
Cover your head and tell me you ain't from there and back again
Oooo close your eyes whata ya see
Oooo nothing can happen to you if you only belief in me
She was a real time ana - lyzer
No conniver
Hard talkin' floozy
Late night arriver
A second hand rose
Smilin' like a cheshire cat
If you do wanna wanna be or not to be tonight
Want'choo to hold me down in bed and you should ride me right
Want'choo ta give it all you got no need to make a mends
Cover your little mouth come up for air
I got the bends
Oooo close your eyes and whata ya see
Oooo nothing can happen to you if you only belief in me
She was a real time ana - lyzer
No conniver
Hard talkin' floozy
Late night arriver
A second hand rose
Smilin' like a cheshire cat
She was a real time ana - lyzer
No conniver
Hard talkin' floozy
Late night arriver
A second hand rose
Smilin' like a cheshire cat
The chorus was finally cleaned up
by none other than Kamil.
He remembered reading an article
in Circus Mag from 1982 where
Steven revealed the lyrics.
Fuckin' awesome!!
He broke up the word "analyzer".
Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam
does this a lot as well
with his lyrics.
She was a real time ana - lyzer
No conniver
Hard talkin' floozy
Late night arriver
A second hand rose
Smilin' like a cheshire cat
Jig Is Up
( Tyler / J. Crespo )
Aaaa... yeah yeah yeah...
Passion queen sold like black vaseline
She was a long cold Sally joystick
Know what I seen

Flashin' spurs
Young night puss n' boots
She was a lawn mow lip full clip
Oooo would I love to fuck and fuck your fuckin' fuckin' booty... oooo yeah
Sweet painted ladies

Push Comes To Shove
( Tyler )
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Now looky here babe
You know I'm talkin' 'bout you without a doubt
Said the music does the talkin'
But all you got is talk about it
And let the girls all left behind
And their full tilt women all spend time
With me and the boys
And their toys... eah yeah
Rosie she was five foot two
With blonde hair by crackie
'n eyes of blue
Sukie she was on my side
'Cause she and Nancy
Ah they took me for a ride
The girls are left behind
Their full tilt women all spend time
With me and the boys
What they do with their toys
Talk about it walk about it
Talk about it no doubt about it
Talk about walk about it
Walk about it walkin' 'bout it
Walkin' about it talk about it
Lived alone everyday
Mama life just doesn't give me good... good love
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
She looked good about 35 to me
Well mine was still comin' on clear
But I was covered back back then
'Cause me and the boys
Knew her career
The girls are left behind
Their full tilt women now I find
There's more time for me and the boys
And them toys in the attic
Her sister she was lanky thin
Never thought a given in
Her candle of youth was burnin' low
And me and the boys
Knew someone had to go
The girls are left behind
Their full tilt women all spent time
With me and the boys
That's a cute attempt I wanna tell ya
And talk about it walk about it
Talk about it and talk about it
And talk about walk about it
Let's talk about it
All of the people and nobody
Everybody there will come a day
Papa mama mama
Let me fuel on something good 'n boot 'n good... yeah
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Huh
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Can't be in love
When you live alone
Push come to shove
When you bitch and moan
Can't be in love when you...
