Temptation Greets You Like Your Naughty Friend

1 views

Lyrics

I don't ever want to hate you
 So don't show me your bed
 The only roads are cul-de-sacs
 The first thing that she said
 "Temptation greets you like your naughty mate"
 The one that used to get you in bother
 But one you could never bring yourself to hate
 And she said, "We've got that spark"
 But only lights a fuse
 Helps you see in the dark
 But it's a sight you'll lose when the
 Temptation greets you like your naughty friend
 I don't ever want to hate you
 So don't show me your bed
 The only roads are cul-de-sacs
 The only ends are dead
 ♪
 Temptation greets you like your naughty mate
 The one that made you steal and set things on fire
 The one you haven't seen of late
 And I said, "That kind of talk
 Only adds intrigue to the cauldron of thought"
 It's already exceeding
 Temptation, the very thing that held her back
 I don't ever want to hate you
 So don't show me your bed
 The only roads are cul-de-sacs
 The only ends are dead
 I don't ever want to hate you
 It's not part of the plan
 So keep your charm where I can't see it
 And your hands where I can
 Yo, it's Rasc' gettin' dirtee stankin', yeah
 We used to be in tight, me and my naughty friends
 Caused pure madness in the end
 I mean day and night
 We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight
 Smoking, drinking, drag riding
 Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding
 Reckless youngsters, no direction
 No sign of correction
 But then I switched it off, changed my ways
 Run the area like, "Oh, my days"
 But a lot of my naughty friends, they're not fazed
 Can't believe that this music pays
 See no reason why we can't do
 All the things that we've always done
 Still in my heart, I know that's just one
 But it's hard to fight the temptation, son
 The panic will fall down around you
 If you don't do what I say
 I don't ever want to hate you
 So don't show me your bed
 The only roads are cul-de-sacs
 The only ends are dead
 I don't ever want to hate you
 It's not part of the plan
 So keep your charm where I can't see it
 And your hands where I can
