JACKYL LYRICS

1. Problem

You want the truth!
You want the truth!
In my hands I hold a problem
It has a will
It has a mind of it's own
I got a problem (problem)
As it stands
I got a problem (problem)
In my hands

You want the truth!
You want the truth!
In my hands I hold the key to love
Out of my hands it's gonna come to me
It's on its own
I got a problem (problem)
As it stands
I got a problem (problem)
In my hands

And it the morning you just told the son
That is the way that things are done
I'll take myself into my own confidence
It won't take long in my hands

You want the truth!
You want the truth!
Out of my hands it's gonna come to me
It's on its own
I got a problem (problem)
As it stands
I got a problem (problem)
In my hands
I got a problem (problem)
As it stands
I got a problem (problem)
In my hands
In my hands

2. Crush

3. Can't Beat It With A Stick

Riding down the road in a nickel black Cadillac
Reckon tomorrow I don't want my money back
If I roll then I roll
Yeah I roll down the road
I rolled this far
Don't need no high sale
No no no!

[Chorus:]
Can't beat it with a stick
Bulletproof, three feet thick
When you got it down keep beating it
Can't beat it
Can't beat it
And if you can then you beat it like this

I had a dream
Woke up in a cold cold sweat
It was one of those dreams though
That you know you'll never forget
Well there was one, no two, no three, no four
Women in the kitchen whipping me up some food
Four women dressed to the hilt
Dressed like prostitutes

[Chorus]

4. Open For Business

AJ drives to his general store
And for the millionth time he unlocks the door
His wife's not around, she's been dead for years
When I was a kid they used to sell me beers
Why he even bothers to open the door
The store's completely empty from ceiling to floor

Everyday open for business
Lay your hand cause the dealing's done
Life goes on and on day after day
Just like AJ, got to find you a way
To open for business

The cracks in the wall is like the lines in his face
They run deep in to show that you can never replace
All the years go by and the place that he's found
They say the shit is coming through
He said build it up around
Wonder how he managed to stay
In an old empty building
He makes it OK

Everyday open for business
Lay your hand cause the dealing's done
Life goes on and on day after day
Just like AJ, got to find you a way
To open for business

Everyday open for business
Life goes on and on and on and on

He drives his '38 Ford to the general store
And for the millionth time he unlocks the door
The gas pumps are gone from where they were before
Is this good or bad?
He's gonna do a little more

Everyday open for business
Lay your hand cause the dealing's done
Life goes on and on day after day
Just like AJ, got to find you a way to

Everyday open for business
Lay your hand cause the dealing's done
Life goes on and on and on and on
Just like AJ, got to find you a way to

Everyday open for business
Everyday open for business

5. Street Went Legit

6. Live Wire

Well if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed
I'm as cool as a body on ice
Or hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven
Take you to hell
I ain't foolin'
Can't you tell

I'm a live wire
I'm a live wire
I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

Well if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans
Oh come on honey you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst 'n I got the booze
Give you an inch
Take you a mile
I wanna make you smile

I'm a live wire
Live Wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
Holy smoke and sweet desire

Like a hot rod baby?
Oh stick this in your fuse box

Cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire
Live wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
And I'm gonna set this town on fire

Live wire
Live wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
Well I'm a live wire
Live wire!
I'm a live wire
Live wire!
I'm gonna burn, found me guilty
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn

7. Gimme Back My Bullets

Life is so strange when its changin', yes indeed
Well I've seen the hard times and the pressure's been on me
But I keep on workin' like the workin' man do
And I've got my act together, gonna walk all over you

[Chorus:]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back my bullets

Sweet talkin' people done ran me out of town
And I drank enough whiskey to float a battleship around
But I'm leavin' this game one step ahead of you
And you will not hear me cry 'cause I do not sing the blues

[Chorus:]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh, put 'em back where they belong
Gimme back my bullets

Been up and down since I turned seventeen
Well I've been on top, and then it seems I lost my dream
But I got it back, I'm feelin' better everyday
Tell all those pencil pushers, better get out of my way

[Chorus:]
Gimme back my bullets
Put 'em back where they belong
Ain't foolin' around, 'cause I done had my fun
Ain't gonna see no more damage done
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets
Oh put 'em back where they belong
Gimme back my bullets

8. Nobody's Fault

[Aerosmith cover]

Lord I must be dreaming, what else could this be
Everybody's screamin', runnin' for the sea
Holy lands are sinkin', birds take to the sky
The prophets all are stinkin' drunk, I know the reason why
Eyes are full of desire, mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire, shit piled up to the knees

Out of rhyme or reason, everyone's to blame
Children of the season don't be lame
Sorry, you're so sorry, don't be sorry
Man has known and now he's blown it upside down
And hell's the only sound
We did an awful job and now they say it's nobody's fault

Old Saint Andres seven years ago
Shove it up their richters, red lights stop and go
Noblemen of courage listen with their ears
Spoke but how discouragin' when no one really hears
One of these days you'll be sorry, too many houses on the stilt
Three million years or just a story, four on the floor up to the hilt

Out of rhyme or reason, everyone's to blame
Children of the season don't be lame
Sorry, you're so sorry, don't be sorry
Man has known and now he's blown it upside down
And hell's the only sound
We did an awful job and now we're just a little too late

Eyes are full of desire, mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire, shit piled up to the knees

California showtime, 5 o'clock the news
Said everybody's concubine was prone to take a snooze

Sorry, you're so sorry, don't be sorry
Man has known and now he's blown it upside down
And hell's the only sound
We did an awful job and now we're just a little too late

9. Dumbass Country Boy (Live)

I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock but what do I know
I remember the days when men were men
If it was up to me I'd bring 'em back again
And I'd kick your candy asses up around your jaded ears

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock but what do I know
I got friends with names like Slim & Coy
Just a dumbass country boy
I'm just a dumbass country boy

I punch the clock for 40 'cause it's all I know
Remember the days of jammin' drugs and love
And it was cool to say yes to all the above
And I still can't find nothing wrong
With saying yes to smoking mother nature

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy

Now people listen to me
I'm your social conscience
I been gone for a while
You've had to make it on your own
Now people listen to me
You got no social conscience
You gotta get up, get up & get over it
That's right, I just wanna change the world
Change the world's diapers
All those tender ass sons o' bitches
Who are all these goobers who say
What's cool & what's not cool
What's hip & not hip
Call me a one hit wonder
Well I might be a one hit wonder
But then again it might only take me one hit
To knock your teeth down your God damn throat
It's time for me to drive this Impala
You need to be programmed
I'll program your ass
Listen to me M.F.

[Chorus:]
I'm just a dumbass country boy
I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy
I'm just a dumbass country boy

I think people wanna rock
But what do I know
Got friends with names like Slim & Coy
It's the simple things that I enjoy
With my friends that are named Slim & Coy
What do I know
What do you know
What does anybody fucking know

10. Twice As Ugly (Live)

When you vultures finish picking skin off my face
Replace your hand that's on my back
Stab your verdict in its place
I can't fight the feeling
Gotta say what's on my mind
Why have you forsaken me, forsaken me, forsaken me
Don't forget just where you come from
Where you used to be
It all comes around
It all comes around
It all comes around

[Chorus:]
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

I offer no apologies
For things that I have done
I'll fuck and drink and smoke and cuss
Damned to have my fun
You can't fight the feeling
Gotta say what's on your mind
Why have you awakened me, awakened me, awakened me
I know you got it in you
To fuck and drink and smoke and cuss
Don't you hate it
You're just like us
Yeah, you're just like us

[Chorus:]
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
To wear you thin
Twice as ugly, twice as loud
Twice as cocky, twice as proud
Here I am, back again
Bigger than life
Just watch me grin
Twice as ugly, twice as ugly
I'm back again

11. Locked & Loaded (Live)

What you gonna do when the sun don't shine
And the moon don't come up right on time
What you gonna do when the storm won't break
And the whip don't crack
And the earth won't quake
What you gonna do when the knife won't cut
The blood won't flow and ya mouth run dry
What you gonna do when it crumbles in your hand
It's an eye for an eye when your high horse dies

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded

What you gonna do when the lightning flash
And ya bridges burn and ya start to crash
And a pill won't take the pain away
But it makes you feel good in a different way
Who ya gonna blame when the man calls time
And the clock runs down and your soul is mine
And how ya gonna pray when ya hands are tied
And you look in my face and you know I lied

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded

I'm your danger
Feed me with your fear
I'm your danger
Smell me drawing near

[Chorus:]
Primed and ready
Feelin' nasty, seein' red
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Locked & loaded
Aimin' for your soul
Locked & loaded
