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

Killing 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
