Lyrics

I'm in the birdhouse, beating my wings against the window
Got no mind for competition, not with the pistol legs in limbo
I don't court no sympathy, no witness to the Bible
I just paid my green fees for the pleasures of survival
This is the west side and the war games played for real down here
Been took for granted
I ain't no actor, I'm a poor man dressed for real, woah, yeah
My needs demanded, needs demanded
Come on, sweetness, right now get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
All along that Gold Coast peep show
See people, they get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
I'm in the crackhouse, got my rock upon the table
Got no mind for conversation with the big man from the label
I don't court no nine to five, no witness to the Bible
I just hit the headlines and blew away my closest rival
This is one shot and the war games played for real down here
Been took for granted
I ain't no actor, I'm a poor man dressed for real, woah, yeah
My needs demanded, needs demanded
Come on, sweetness, right now get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
All along that Gold Coast peep show
I see people, they get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
This is the jungle and the war games played for real down here
Been took for granted
I ain't no actor, I'm a poor man dressed for real, woah, yeah
My needs demanded, took for granted
Hand in hand, I'm needs demanded
Come on, sweetness, right now get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
All along that Gold Coast peep show
I see people, they get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
Come on, sweetness, right now get it on
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
I'm red sun sittin' down low on a sugar, baby, yeah
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well
Hey, right now
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
I'm red sun sittin' down low on a sugar, baby, yeah
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher, yeah
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well
Way over
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
Way over
Gonna take ya, I'm gonna take ya higher
Way over
Come on, baby
