All Take

You were tempted with candy
And the taste, it was sweet
Sold your soul to the devil
Just to kiss the ground she walked on
She was bad, she was bad news boy
The saddest excuses
From her poison lips
Don't go knocking at her door
No she won't be there tomorrow
You been had, you been had
She was all take, what a mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now you're never the same
She was heartbreak, another mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now she's gone away
The lady's a vampire
Come to bleed you dry
In her wake, a fire
Just to burn the ground you walked on
With a hand in your pocket
And one on your cigarette
That love had you dyin'
No, she won't be there come mornin'
You been had, you been had
She was all take, what a mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now you're never the same
She was heartbreak, another mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now she's gone away
It's a cry, cryin' shame
When a good one comes along she says it's too late
Lookin' at him there on the floor
I said leave that boy alone
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know
all take, what a mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now you're never the same
She was heartbreak, another mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now she's gone away
Now she's gone away
all take, what a mistake
Dragged you down to the gates of hell
She took all your money, took what you gave
Now she gone away

Honey

She'll be rockin' your ocean every night
She's a hurricane
In her eyes a volcano, to erupt
Well that love she gives is a natural disaster, I know
But if you're lookin' at me for shelter, I ain't it
I hate to break the bad news, compared to me she
Is sweet like honey
Sweet like honey, honey
Keep an eye on your target
While she yells for no reason, tiny daggers
She will unhinge her jaw just to swallow you whole
Then throw you away
Just like a snake in the tall grass she is waiting
I'm sorry for the truth, but compared to me she is sweet
Sweet like honey, oh honey
La da da da da da di
La da da da da da di
Maybe you'll figure it out, she's not the maneater
Craving the taste of your soul
Well you know, I'll tell you again
Nobody's perfect, it's better than being alone
Sweet like honey yeah (La da da da da da di)
La da da da da da di
La da da da da da di
La da da da da da di
Sweet like honey

Not the Kind

Show me how you do it
This thing that you do
You are not the kind I usually like
Show me how you do it
This magic that you do
You are not the kind I usually like
(send for me) don't leave me alone now
(send for me) you don't even know how
(I don't like) to say goodnight
Show me how you do it
This thing that you do to my soul
Wrap your arms around me, let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
(send for me) don't leave me alone now
(send for me) you don't even know how
(I don't like) to say goodnight
Say goodnight say goodnight say goodni-ight

Mausoleum

O my friends we are gathered softly
inside the little pink house
No, we don’t know what to say to each other
Then I go and ask your mother
She said, “I gotta be honest.
I’ll never be the same.”
I am standing outside your bedroom
dressed like a mausoleum, hits like a hurricane
O my body on pins and needles
To see the way that you left it, pristinely the way it stayed
when i leave
i’ll feel the breeze
because you gotta go somewhere beyond the gray of an open grave
the night we could hardly speak
When it’s my time to leave this planet
and go into orbit, I’d better land safe
And this life that we’ve built together
I hope they tear it all down, tear it all down
Because I want to be where you are
sippin’ a margarita, under the canopy
when i leave
i’ll feel the breeze
‘cause you gotta go somewhere beyond the gray of an open grave
the night we could hardly speak
