It was my own lovely lady
And she said, "Oh, it's you"
Then we laughed for a moment
And I said, "I never knew
That you like piña coladas
And gettin' caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean
And the taste of champagne
If you like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the cape
You're the lady I've looked for
Come with me and escape
 
We are a rock revolving
Around a golden sun
We are a billion children
Rolled into one
So when I hear about
The hole in the sky
Saltwater wells in my eyes

We climb the highest mountain
We'll make the desert bloom
We're so ingenious
We can walk on the moon
But when I hear of how
The forests have died
Saltwater wells in my eyes

I have lived for love
But now that's not enough
For the world I love is dying
(And now I'm crying)
And time is not a friend
(No friend of mine)
As friends we're out of time
And it's slowly passing by
Right before our eyes
We light the deepest ocean
Send photographs of Mars
We're so enchanted by
How clever we are
Why should one baby
Feel so hungry she cries
Saltwater wells in my eyes

I have lived for love
But now that's not enough
For the world I love is dying
(And now I'm crying)
And time is not a friend
(No friend of mine)
As friends we're out of time
And it's slowly passing by
Right before our eyes
We are a rock revolving
Around a golden sun
We are a billion children
Rolled into one
What will I think of me
The day that I die
Saltwater wells in my eyes
Saltwater wells in my eyes
 
You think I'm an ignorant savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know
You don't know
 
I'm feeling like I'm famous, the talk of the town
They say I've gone mad
Yeah, I've gone mad
But they don't know what I know
Cause when the sun goes down, someone's talking back
Yeah, they're talking back, oh
At night, when the stars light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the moon
Trying to get to you
In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?
 
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday Mr. President
Happy birthday to you
Thanks, Mr. President
For all the things you've done
The battles that you've won
The way you deal with U.S. Steel
And our problems by the ton
We thank you so much
Everybody, happy birthday
Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States!
Thank you!
I can now retire from politics after having had the birthday sang to me
In such a sweet way

I'll stop time for you
The second you say you'd like me too
I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing
Baby, just to wake up with you
Would be everything I need, and this could be so different
Tell me what you want to do

'Cause I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead?
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
 
You say you'll take what you can get from me so
Take all my dark and dirty and this pretty body
Breathe me in, I'll get you high enough then
Breathe me out and leave me
You only want to want me

If you only knew, if you only knew
My bitter thoughts, my rotten heart
If you only knew, if you only knew
I should have come with a

I should have come with a warning
I should have come with a warning
Full disclosure, don't get closer
I should have come with a warning
 
Baby, lock the door and turn the lights down low
And put some music on that's soft and slow
Baby, we ain't got no place to go
I hope you understand
 
… Uh-huh
… I don't f- with you
You little stupid a- (woah) I ain't f- with you
You little, you little dumb a- (woah) I ain't f- with you
I got a million trillion things I'd rather f- do
Than to be f- with you
Little stupid a-, I don't give a f-
I don't give a f-, I don't, I don't, I don't give a f-
Look, I don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
Don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
… I heard you gotta new man, I see you takin' a pic (woah)
Then you post it up, thinking that its making me sick
Brr, brr, I see you calling I be making it quick
I'ma answer that sh- like, "I don't f- with you"
… B- I got no feelings to go
I swear I had it up to here, got no ceilings to go
I mean for real, f- how you feel
F- your two cents if it ain't going towards the bill, yeah
… And everyday I wake up celebrating sh-, why?
'Cause I just dodged a bullet from a crazy b-, I
Stuck to my guns, that's what made me rich
That's what put me on, that's what got me here
That's what made me this
… And everything that I do is my first name (B-I-G)
These h- chase bread, aw damn, she got a bird brain
Ain't nothin' but trill in me, aw man, silly me
I just bought a crib three stories that b- a trilogy
… And you know I'm rolling w- that's f- up the ozone
I got a b- that text me she ain't got no clothes on
And then another one text, then your a- next
And I'm gonna text your a- back like
… I don't f- with you
You little stupid a- (woah) I ain't f- with you
You little, you little dumb a- (woah) I ain't f- with you
I got a million trillion things I'd rather f- do
Than to be f- with you
Little stupid a-, I don't give a f-
I don't give a f-, I don't, I don't, I don't give a f-
Look, I don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
Don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
… Got a million things on my mind
Executive deals online, limited amount of time
Chasing these dollar signs and you ain't on your grind
You liable to find me up in the MGM casino in the D
F- off fetti I could've put on property
… From the Bay to the Murder Mitten
My n- put m- missions
She choose him that's her decision
Free my n- in prison
On the phone with a b- who can't do sh-
For a pimp but make a n- hella rich (hella rich)
… Got a blunt in my dental, goin' H.A.M in a rental
On my way, to Sacramento, late night, Arsenio
I'm never sentimental, go hard or go home, listen
Barely Harley, I'm chromeless
You might end up domeless
… I bet you shes into me, her cheddar shes giving me
I make a b- stand out forever like the Statue of Liberty
Rest in pimp, Pimp C, Underground King of the South
I raise my Styrofoam up, and pour some drank in my mouth
… Why you always coming around with bad news? (Bad news)
Say you want me to win, but hope I lose (hope I lose)
Asking why I rock with other n- in the crew
But them n- cool, it's just that
… B-, I don't f- with you (lil bia-)
You little stupid a- (woah) I ain't f- with you (uh-uh)
You little, you little dumb a- (woah) I ain't f- with you
I got a million trillion things I'd rather f- do
Than to be f- with you
Little stupid a-, I don't give a f-
I don't give a f-, I don't, I don't, I don't give a f-
Look, I don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
Don't give a f- about you or anything that you do
… I got a new chick that I gotta thank God for
I got a new whip that I gotta thank a lot for
Yeah, I got a lot but want a lot more
Yeah we in the building but I'm tryna take it to the top floor
I swear I hear some new bullsh- every day I'm wakin' up
It seems like nowadays everybody breakin' up
That sh- can break you down if you lose a good girl
I guess you need a bad b- to come around and make it up
… I guess drama makes for the best content
Everything got a bad side, even a conscience
Now you're drinkin' 'til your unconscious (woah)
Feel me when you get a fine b-
Don't forget to read the fine print
Life got me meditating like I'm in the Himalayas
Keep it G with the L lit on me like the elevator
Yeah, I know that karma's too real so I hope you doing cool
… But still stupid a- b- I ain't f- with you
Little stupid a- b- I ain't f- with
I ain't f-, I ain't, I ain't f- with you
I ain't f- with you
(Straight up)
 
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It's not hard to see
The boy is mine
I'm sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
Think it's time we got this straight
There is no way you could mistake
Him for your man, are you insane?
You see I know that you may be
Just a bit jealous of me
But you're blind if you can't see
That his love is all in me
 
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
 
Man, it's a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
Well, I hear you whisper and the words melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My muñequita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa

You're my reason for reason
The step in my groove
And if you said this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Because you're so smooth
 
Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when I lost your love
I wake-up in the morning, and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said, "Good-bye"
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
(Why do these eyes of mine cry?)
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Don't they know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said, "Good-bye"

Oh Britain come back to me <3
 
To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Colorado

Sometimes there's airplanes I can't jump out
Sometimes there's bullshit that don't work now
We all got our stories but please, tell me
What there's to complain about
When you're happy like a fool

Let it take you over
When everything is out
You gotta take it in
 
Tonight's the night we're gonna make it happen
Tonight we'll put all other things aside
Give in this time and show me some affection
We're goin' for those pleasures in the night
 
On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell

Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
She got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
She calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here"
"Since 1969"

And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, 'We are all just prisoners here"
"Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man
"We are programmed to receive"
"You can check-out any time you like"
"But you can never leave!"
 
You're just like me, far from normal
Too impulsive, anti-social
We bring out the baddest parts of us

We could drive on straight to Tuscon
I'm the Bonnie, you're the Clyde love
And everybody else is choking in the dust

They're choking in the dust
Like we were never there
Oh, I hated everyone 'til you I swear
 
Well I'm a-runnin' down the road try'n to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me
One says she's a friend of mine

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy

Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy.....

Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flat-bed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me....

We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again
So open up I'm climbin' in, so take it easy..

Well, I'm a runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover, she's so hard to find.....

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy....

Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me.....
 
My beloved darling
Do not take your eyes off
I know I know
What I have in my
heart now The fire of love for you is burning in my heart
You believe
Just you believe me

With you with you I fly away, when You are near I forget everything I live I love and I
know for sure
we together forever

I'm like a bird soaring into the sky
When you have you
I have

I love you
You hear I love
And I give you all my love
No words needed
No extra words needed
When love reigns
in my soul
 
And every time I try to fly I fall
Without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And every time I see
You in my dreams
I see your face
It's haunting me
I guess I need you baby
