Rough And Twisted

Lyrics for Rough And Twisted

Yeah, why don't you drive me Down that rough and twisted road? Why don't you guide me? 'Cause I don't know which way to go Promise to take me Yeah, to where the water glows Somewhere, somewhere down to Puerto Rico Where the tide just ebbs and flows (Ooh) flash me all your jewelry (Ooh-ooh) poetry and friends (Ooh) promise me a dance like Nijinsky (Ooh-ooh) nothing, nothing, nothing but a false pretense (ooh) Yeah, all you feed me was just rancid rice and bones All I drank was muddy water, as lonely as a saxophone Why don't you take me to where I wanna go? To Natchez, Mississippi, Sicily and Rome (Ooh) you just took me to a flyblown town (Ooh-ooh) in the back of nowhere (Ooh) the smell was acrid and toxic (Ooh-ooh) you breathe the air (Ooh) the only club was called Conspiracy (Ooh-ooh) they didn't like me much (Ooh) what they wanted was tyranny (Ooh-ooh) and all that crazy, crazy, fucked-up stuff (ooh) Why don't you drive me? Take me where you wanna go Yeah, why don't you take me Down this rough and twisted road? Yes, why don't you teach me Teach me all those foreign tongues? Yeah, why don't you take me? 'Cause I'm deaf and blind and dumb Yeah, drive me Yeah, drive me Where I wanna go Drive me Take me where I wanna Take me where I wanna Take me where I wanna go
