Lyrics
Soul Kiss
Manny don?t get benign
where you gonna breathe tonight
I?ll meet you when the sun don?t shine
In the evening
Life is but a can of worms
out in the sun getting burned
while momma?s with the neighbor out back
soul kissing
And we walk between the lines
watch the world ignite
watch you every hour
all I want is to get burned
promise not to learn
not to touch the fire
Sit with yourself in the shade
Thinkin? ?bout your plans unmade
I?ll meet you in line while you wait
for your dinner
life is but a pinch at a time
pressed like some cheap red wine
while daddy?s with the neighbor out back
doin? nothin?
And it?s not too late
For the dogs to chase you down
Are you ready, are you ready?
So Manny don?t get behind
Where you gonna bleed tonight
I?ll meet you when the moon don?t hide
In the evening
Life is but a pack of lies
whispered under clear blue skies
While daddy?s with the neighbor out back
Soul kissing
(Chorus)
All over your world
J. Roberti 2000
