I just think it's my responsibility as a human being and an entertainer to see the soldiers.
When my mother first passed away some time ago, I didn't enjoy food anymore. I just ate to live. My mother had always cooked so well that I didn't think I could follow her.
I'm innocent. I've done nothing. I'm a nice guy.
My name ain't Steve Miller, but I fly like an Eagle.
I perform for soldiers because they are important.
Took flowers from a hearse, romanced a nurse. Put the girl asleep, then I went through her purse.
I never let any of my sons beat me at videogames.
Take some time and educate your mind, in the long run I'm sure you're fine.
I see ya waiting for the bus early in the morn', brick house with a face like Lena Horne.
I don't have to ask you where you've been, cause the matches in your purse say Holiday Inn.
Leave the eggs to bathe for 15 minutes in the hot water like a sexy Swedish chick in a natural mineral sauna.
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke.
Elesa slept with Mark and Mark slept with Tina. Tina slept with Javier, the first time he seen her. Javier slept with Loopy, and Loopy slept with Rob. Rob slept with Lisa who slept with Steve...
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
