If you want to you can
Stick around
'Cause its
Alright tonight
She said
I will stay here
Stay with you
'Cause you're
Alright tonight

And I, I hoped that things would turn
Out my way 'cause she's
Alright tonight she said
This is fun, this is good
Yes, it's alright, it's alright

Chorus
And do you want this one night stand?
Let's take a risk and go play in the sand
You can leave that ring on your finger
I'm a sinner, you're a winner, I am too

We made out now
We made up, yeah
We made love for
The world cup, I said
I want things I've never had before
She said, alright tonight
So we entered heaven
To accept our fate and to
Sum it up baby,
It was great yeah
It's not often that I
See the light,
But it's, it's alright, it's alright

Chorus

Here she comes again now
Here she comes again now
Here we go again now
Do you want this one night stand
Do you want this one night stand
Do you want this one night stand
Alright
Alright

Chorus
I'm a sinner, you're a winner I am too...
(it's alright, it's alright, i'ts alright...)
(don't you want this one night stand, do you want this one night stand....)
i'm a sinner, you;re a winner, i am too

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
