No one’s asking you to stay, ooh baby
No one’s asking you to stay, anymore
No one’s asking you to stay, baby baby, anymore

Nothings blocking the front door, ooh baby
No one’s blocking the front door, in the house
Nothings blocking the front door, baby baby, in this house.

The morning sun really shows your age
It must be hell not to know this pain
Painted lids over glorious eyes
This is well and good but it’s not fine

No one’s asking you to stay, ooh baby
No one’s asking you to stay, anymore
No one’s asking you to stay, baby baby, anymore

No one’s leading you astray, ooh baby
No one’s leading you astray, I promise
No one’s leading you astray, baby baby, I promise

Riping arms beside my chest
We sleep so much but we never rest
I agonize over every word
But what I said isn’t what you heard
I’m not so thick that I can’t be stirred
And I feel like a clumsy teenager at times

Keep on tellin’ you

I’m not forced, I’ll manage
I’m not speaking spanish
A lunkish oaf is all that I’ll ever be
Stop groveling and chewing
Everything we’re doing
All your kind of love is so strange oh oh

A graphic lump rises in my throat
There’s alligators swimming in that mote
A pit with spikes is what I’m bringing you hun
You’re not so deep that you can’t be swung
I’m not that so dull that you can’t be stung
This is well and good but is it fine?

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."
