- Black Mermaid
i’m a black mermaid
from the bottom of the sea
i will teach you how to love me
into greatness i will lead you
’cause i’m a black mermaid
nothing rarer you will find
i am here for you to love me
i’ve been here for all o’ time
- Francis
Friends are small
Just slip through your willow today
You could dream the day you wake
Everything will be okay
You don't have to race the clock again
Or give your all in vein
They're gonna love you, anyway
- Heaven Sent
I came and saw you left the light on
There was no one home at all
Couldn’t wait to get your clothes on
Shouldn’t come around to call on you
The taste was sweet and you delivered
I didn’t know I would feel so high
Well, I guess we didn’t have to kill her
- I Drive Alone
Can't move on
But I can't go home
And I'm not so strong
But I'll make my way
To the place I know
Inside my heart
Where I used to go
To get brave and
- Lounge
Sweet caress and tender mouth
Kissed her breast, and then he found, he found
Forty days and forty nights before this day
Said that she would always be the man until she found herself
You can't stop her now
Peace within or has she seen? (and you know she will find out)
- Nearly Civilized
Don't love me quietly
Do it with intensity
Or you'll miss the point
Do it with everything you strain
Or there's no love to be gained
Cos we are nearly civilized
And I could almost love you now
- O G Bitch
I am the original bitch
I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
I am the original witch
I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
- Over
The sky is not falling
The sun is still shining
And all of the fishes are still in the sea
Mama's still calling
The bills are still piling
My heart may be broken, but I hold the pieces, pieces
- Swallow me
The slowest melodies coated me
Soothing rythms stoked the fire in my belly
Music is the man that made a woman out of me
The purest voices call to me, deafening as the cry of 10,000 babies
Music was the lamb that made a lion out of me
Long as I have my voice, I don't need arms to hold
I never need arms to hold me.
- Thank Heaven For You
Thank heaven for you and the way you take care of me
You hide my secret so well, thank heaven for you
No matter storm to come your way, whatever season in this house, day to day
You've weathered them all and you are so strong
So thank heaven for you (you're my angel)
Whenever I get lost, you never let me disappear for long
- That Girl
In the bat of an eye...
You already think about yourself
And I don't believe all the lies coming out of my mouth...
Try to forget all the things that I did to myself and in time I see it fading
One of these these things just doesn't belong here
And look at that girl
Oh, I just don't belong here
- Walking on Eggshells
Walk up with the morning sun
Can't stand the pouring
And the sun of the rain on the window out
Not one for ones
And you say, "Hey, girl, where you're going?"
You're standing on the edge, don't look down, now
Watch your step now
You're changing your direction
- Wikked Lil' Grrrls
Wicked little girls, kissed the boys and made them cry
Raisin' double trouble every time we pass them by
And some might say we're wicked little girls
With curves and kissers and pearly whites
You better keep an eye on your boys and lock em up tight
You think that I'm a lady? You think that I won't fight?
I'll make your eyes shine like a liliqoi moonlit night whoa oh
