Jude - Rick James lyrics

This is just the basic, this is not the best Everybody knows that the trouble starts when you talk all about the rest First, you went to college and then you got yourself degrees Then, you got some pretty girls to get down on their knees You took yourself some pictures and you showed them to your friends Now, you're going straight to hell and that's where your story ends Well, one of those girls was a friend of mine One of those ones you took One of those girls didn't want to see her face on the cover of a dirty book One of those girls took her life last night just in case you had not heard And everybody knows that the pretty ones go down doing it for the work and Chorus: Don't be fooled Don't be flattered It's not like you ever mattered When the world around is falling down and every ship's been shattered Don't be fooled Don't flattered It's not like you ever mattered Not to me Ah, rick james was the original super freak Man, you're not so perfect Man, you're not a pearl You're nothing more, man, than a little piece of sand That grew up inside of a girl I don't go for the novocain 'cause i don't like the pain And i don't fall for the jesus freaks when they seem like they want to win Chorus Bridge: I'm not looking for an answer anymore I'm not looking for a visionary Help me mother mary I've done my time I'm closer everyday to a life of crime The god above us and everywhere he watches all the people die k**ing them as others waste their time in asking why But, time is all we're given and the happiness we seek It may be the peace within the meek or maybe the statement of the freak and Chorus (repeat)
