Beats Workin Lyrics by Van Halen

Beats Workin Lyrics by Van Halen

Lyrics

Here today gone later today
I’ve been reading what the bloggers say
How about a great big slice for me
Otherwise or professionally

Beats workin’
Startin’ up in my feet
Goes to workin’
On the rest of me

Live this life of luxury
Sho-nuff beats workin’ for me
Kid’ll land on his feet
If he don’t land on his seat

This beats workin’ baby
Cause I’m red hot
Baby like it or not
Don’t you know that
This beats workin’ baby
Cause I’m red hot
Baby like it or not

One empty floor
Stands between the stage and the welfare door
Heads or tails of the same bread
“Coin of the realm”
Just like the man said

Beats workin’
Starting up all in my feet
Goes to workin’
On the rest of me

Got a feelin’ all in my head
Try to do it like the good book said
Kid’ll land on his feet
If he don’t land on his head

This beats workin’ baby
Cause I’m red hot
Baby like it or not
Don’t you know that
This beats workin’ baby
Cause I’m red hot
Baby like it or not

(solo 1 & 2)

This beats workin’ baby
This beats workin’ baby
This beats workin’ baby
Cause I’m red hot
Baby like it or not

(solo 3)

Big River Lyrics Van Halen

Big River Lyrics by Van Halen


From the album 'A Different Kind of Truth' and featuring David Lee Roth on vocals.

Big River Lyrics:

Wind at my back

Listen to a sea shell

You can hear the sea

Listen to a beer glass

That river belongs to me

Big River, rolling

There’s a river runs here

When it rains, we flood

Go up-city, first three floors

That’s Charles River mud

Big River, rolling  

Oh, yeah!

Big River, rolling 

Oh, yeah!

Land’s edge

Where the East begins

The debris meets the sea

When the tide comes in

Oh, look out!

Look both ways now!

Stay Frosty Lyrics Van Halen

Stay Frosty Lyrics by Van Halen

From the 'A Different Kind of Truth' album, the first recordings VH has made with David Lee Roth in a long time!

Lyrics

I journey to the North
Yeah, what the preacher said
He said, your arm ___ a box of cotton
Hum these words, instead
Gold tooth reflecting
My advice is free
There’s a trick to Christian values and it’s compulsory.

Stay Frosty
That’s what the preacher man said
Stay Frosty
His words still rockin’ in my head
You can’t control your future
You can’t control your friends
In a world without end

Stay Frosty
Hey yeah
Stay frosty now
Alright

Uh-Ut-Uh...

And I traveled to the South Egypt
An' a rabbi appeared to me
His voice heavy with the sands of time
He made me see
Same as Kabbalah, Dave
But for you it’s free
God guides us on journey
But careful with those feet.

Stay Frosty
In a world without end
Stay Frosty
Like that ancient immortal said
Don’t want em’ to get your goat
Don’t show em’ where it’s hid
That’s just what I did!

Stay Frosty
Woo!
Look out!
Stay Frosty now
Use my hand, I won't look

Ut-oh!

Uh-Ut-Uh...

I journeyed to the east
And I struggled to stay afloat
A solitary Buddhist monk threw me a rope
He looked me in the eye
Said, "Don’t make me say this twice
You wanna be a Monk you gotta cook a lot of rice."

Stay Frosty
In a world without end
Stay Frosty
Work hard at this my friend
Look beyond our kung fu fighting
God is love
But get it in writing

Stay Frosty.

Stay Frosty now.

Outta Space Lyrics Van Halen

Outta Space Lyrics Van Halen

From Van Halen's new rock album, A Different Kind of Truth (get it from Amazon)

Lyrics

Need no polar bear to scare me
No Eskimo to share with me his fate
Wow, We outta space
No blog-o-sphere to sell me
No dolphin needs to tell me
No starving kid to make the case

Counter blast, Interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass
Go Home, The Earth Is Full
Outta space, Outta space
Outta space, Outta space

Eighty acres of one stop shopping
Has somewhat changed the place
Wow, we outta space
I do not refuse it
I am guilty, I do use it
I am the reason
We outta space

Counter blast, Interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass
Go Home, The Earth Is Full
Outta space, Outta space
Outta space, Outta space

(solo)

Danger rides the web tonight
Burst mode dynamite
Spinning up my Facebook page
And I'll ride out towards the outer maze

The future ain't what it used to be
Time to change my galaxy in case
We outta space!
Trouble-free Earth despocrats made
Mother Nature piss her pants and when
That's human way

Counter blast, Interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass
Go Home, The Earth Is Full
Outta space, Outta space

Trouble with Never Lyrics Van Halen

The Trouble With Never Lyrics Van Halen

From the album, A Different Kind of Truth 

Lyrics

You often wonder
You want to know
How deep does a rabbit hole go?
I know you never thought about it
But ask yourself later
When you turn on your stereo
does it return the favour?
I gotta know!

That's the trouble with never
Sure seem like a mighty long time
That's the trouble with never
When was the last time
You did something for the first time?
Hello!

Every Einstein's assigned
A Tweedle dumb and Tweedle dumber
Ain't no fool could see
Never even wonder
Yeah we could come together
I will call for you
Hey, never's good for me
How's never sound to you?
1-800-Tell-Me-Baby!

That's the trouble with never
Sure gave me a mighty long time
That's the trouble with never
When was the last time
You did something for the first time?

Yeah!
Level with me Baby!
Talk to Me!

(Solo)

This could damage your reputation
My wicked wicked ways
But maybe I just will
Since you put it that way
Delusions of eloquence
You never can say
You wanna play? (the game)
You can't quit when you get played
Mistakes make people
Isn't that what people say?
Let's them play in the moment
Dance the night away
Selective amnesia
Is only a heartbeat away

Ask him a question
In concern of time
Suppose you wait forever
And then you change your mind
Oh, No!

That's the trouble with never
Sure could be a mighty long time
That's the trouble with never
When was the last time
You did something for the first time?
When was it?
When was it?
Ah, Text me baby!

When Baby?
Tell Me
When was the last time baby?
Show Me

Honeybabysweetiedoll Lyrics Van Halen

Lyrics:

Honey baby sweetie doll
You’re the one that I want
Or I don’t want one at all
Honey baby my heart’s aflame
I’m up... and you’re to blame

Honey baby sweetie girl
Let me count the ways you rock my world
Stone soul sister, soccer mom
Mucha chamiga
Cherry bomb

Baby Lover
Angel Faces
Satin Doll
You straight up aces

I’m a bad little cowboy
Send me to your room
Let’s get started
Let’s not stop soon
I roll like the ocean
When the moon is full
I’m a face grenade
With the sex-pin pulled

Baby Lover
Angel Faces
Satin Doll
You straight up aces

(solo 1)

Honey baby Hampton’s bitch
Kinda lost, sorta rich
I dig both and I don’t care which
You're gonna make me crash
You red hot Florida trailer trash
Now that's a switch

(solo 2)

Woof!
Woof!

As Is Lyrics Van Halen

As Is Lyrics Van Halen

Song lyric from Eddie and boy's new album, A Different Kind of Truth. 
Yesterday I was a bum and broke
Today I am a star and broke
In this town that’s called progress
That’s how we do biz

I’ve been rich and I’ve been poor
Rich was better, totally better
Require's a degree of acceptance
As in "must accept As Is"

Drive my search engine home
Dropped and chopped in Alabama Chrome
Hey what the hell it runs, SO!
The day is dunzo
Let’s have some funzo
Your's very truly,
As Is

That's how it goes...

How expensive he was
Or what was he worth
Ain't no Brinks truck following no hearse

Drive my search engine home
Dropped and chopped in Alabama Chrome
Hey what the hell it runs, SO!
The day is dunzo
Let’s have some funzo
Your's very truly'
As Is

This next part should really confuse things
Everybody let’s stay focused

Love of the craft
Or love of the buck?
Every day down here’s a rainy day
We don’t save up

(solo)

A little more volume in the headphones please...

Unspoiled by progress
"As Is" is how I follow through
It's not who you squeeze
But who returns once again to squeeze you
No doubt!
Love 'em all I says
Let Cupid sort 'em out

Drive my search engine home
Dropped and chopped in Alabama Chrome
Hey what the hell it runs, SO!
The day is dunzo
Let’s have some funzo
Your's very truly,
As Is

Love of the craft
Or love of the buck?
Every day down here’s a rainy day
We don’t save up

La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
(repeat)

Bullethead Lyrics by Van Halen

Bullethead Lyrics by Van Halen

Lyrics:

My karma just ran over your dogma
I can feel your pain
If everything is coming your way
You're facing the wrong lane

Bullethead
Bomb the moon until you're crazy dead
Bullethead
Got a different kind of truth
Bullethead
Yes you are in danger
I drive just like you!

How many roads must a man walk down
Before he admits he's lost
And do you really, really drive this way
Just to piss me off?

Boldly going nowhere
Trouble busting through
Yeah, I'm rolling slowly
But I'm ahead of you

Bullethead
Bomb the moon until you're crazy dead
Bullethead
Got a different kind of truth
Bullethead
Yes you are in danger
I drive just like you!

Well I'm a lovin' the horn baby
Well I'm a Bullethead
Come-a, come-a, come-a, come on baby
Well I'm a Bullethead
Hurt me

(solo)

Traffic is giving you trouble
I can feel your pain
No light at the end of the tunnel
Due to budget constraints

Some days you're the dog
Some days you're the hydrant
If everything is going your way
You're facing the wrong lane

Bullethead
Bomb the moon until you're crazy dead
Bullethead
Got a different kind of truth
Bullethead
Yes you are in danger
I drive just like you!

Blood and Fire Lyrics by Van Halen

Blood and Fire Lyrics by Van Halen

The single single from Van Halen's massive new album, A Different Kind of Truth. The first single was Tattoo. Sunb by David Lee Roth, Blood and Fire sounds like a classic Van Halen song. The song  does not appear to be a subtle reference to the work of the Salvation Army....

Lyrics:

You can always tell the winners
Saints and the Sinners
Down at the starting line

I'm a lucid vision
Of the unforgiven
I'm your wave tossed guy

King sized repercussion
Trouble by the dozen
The stakes have never been high

Come back when you're younger
Come back and feel the thunder
1-800 let's talk

We came, we came, we came
Through blood and fire

We came, we came, we came
Through blood and fire

Now look at all the people here tonight

ahhhhhhhh

It's a world upthrown
But that's just what's expected
None of them know it or even suspected
God must love the lazy, shiftless, and the crazy

Rest to follow when the whole album  is released.

China Town Lyrics Van Halen

China Town Lyrics by Van Halen

China Town is a song from Van Halen's A Different Kind of Truth album - their first since 1998 and their first with original lead singer, David Lee Roth in 27 years.

Lyrics:

Headless body in a topless bar
Warring clans in lowered cars
A buck is still a buck in Shanghai
And a buck is all you earn
A great night for all concerned

Steel fingers play a deadly song
Whole lotta Shakespeare going on and on and on

It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong Underground
Don’t mess around

Welcome to China Town
Well you bring ultra-new
Welcome to China Town

Hero's aren't born, they're cornered
And this corner is where we write the story
Two tribes warring
Downtown after hours
The best to you each morning

Can't survive and think to win
Drugged into sin
Next episode begins and begins and begins and begins

It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong Underground
Don’t mess around

Welcome to China Town
Well you bring ultra-new
Welcome to China Town

It’s all happening downtown
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!

(solo)

It’s all happening downtown
You painted daughters of the Tong Underground
Don’t mess around
Welcome to China Town
Well you bring ultra-new
Welcome to China Town
Welcome to my town, my town, my town!

You and Your Lyrics:

Ain’t no Red House over yonder
No Stormy Monday waits for you
Ain’t no Midnight Train to Georgia
And I'm not looking for the truth
And I’ll tell you what I’m getting rid of next
You and your blues
Yes I am

You’re bad mood's permanent
Communication Breakdown
Like watching someone reinvent
Their 19th Nervous Breakdown

Woman you suffer from a color
I suffered cause of you
Now everybody’s suffered
‘Cause of you and your blues

Ain’t goin’ down to no Crossroads
Ain’t gonna dust no broom
No Evil Woman got a hold on me
Ain’t going to Heaven anytime soon

You’re bad mood's permanent
Communication Breakdown
Like watching someone reinvent
Their 19th Nervous Breakdown

Woman you suffer from a color
I suffered cause of you
Now everybody’s suffered

I’m done with coexisting
This is heavy lifting
No more growing codependent over you
And baby while we at it
I’ve had it with you and your blues

(solo)

Woman you suffer from a color
I suffered cause of you
Now everybody’s suffered
Woman you suffer from a color
And I suffered 'cause of you
Now everybody’s suffered
Now everybody’s suffered
'Cause you and your blues

She's the Woman Lyrics Van Halen

She's the Woman Lyrics Van Halen

Lyrics


A little low on cash
But I'm high on luck
I wanna be your knight
In shining pick-up truck
With a Chevy for my summer home
Let's get the party started
It's looking like the city towed
My other apartment

She got a doorbell sign that said
Bring it or don't ring it
She's the woman
She's the woman
She's the woman
She's the woman

Fate is my pimp
But she was cool
Said If you're doin' business with me, honey...
What does that make you?
Some Casablanca gin joint
You're a nervous wreck
Your I.Q. plummets fourteen points
Her thunder thong around your neck

The song ain't dirty
It's really just the way we sing it (sing it)
She's the woman (sing it)
She's the woman
She's the woman
She's the woman

She wanted something to regret
Tomorrow morning
This suburban garage-a-trois
Was worth exploring
Yeah dreams come true
But it remains to be seen
By the time mine usually do
It's no longer me!

She got a doorbell sign...
You better bring it, or don't ring it
She's the woman
She's the woman
She's the woman
