Cherrystones Lyrics

Long as I have my plans
I don't give a damn
About muddy waters
Long as I have my rice
And it's tasting nice
I'm gonna love your daughters
Long as I'm sitting well
And not raisin' hell
I won't be a martyr
Long as I never read
About others' needs
I won't have to suffer

In the twilight of my mind I know I'm doing something wrong
The green and black elevator's bringing me down
To the basement on the 13th floor

Long as I have my plans
I don't give a damn
About revolution
Long as I have my rice
I don't have to think twice
About a solution
Long as I'm sitting well
And not raisin' hell
I can't cause confusion
Long as I'm writing checks
And going easy on sex
I'm not a protrusion

In the twilight of my mind I know I'm doing something wrong
The green and black elevator's bringing me down
To the basement on the 13th floor

Long as I have my plans
I don't give a damn
About my direction
Long as I have my soup
I don't give a hoot
About insurrection
Long as I'm sitting well
In my padded cell
I got good protection
Long as I never read
About others' needs
I don't have to vote in the election

In the twilight of my mind I know I'm doing something wrong
The green and black elevator's bringing me down
To the basement on the 13th floor
