05-05-2016 DARK NECESSITIES
di Mouse, Kiedis, Smith, Klinghoffer, Flea
RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS
Coming out to the light of day
We got many moons that are deep at play
So I keep an eye on the shadow’s smile
To see what it has to say
You and I both know
Everything must go away
Ah, what do you say?
Spinning knot that is on my heart
It’s like a bit of light and a touch of dark
You got sneak attacked from the zodiac
But I see your fire spark
Eat the breeze and go
Blow by blow and go away
Oh, what do you say?
Yeah, you don’t know my mind
You don’t know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design and
Tell the world that I’m falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design
Stumble down to the parking lot
You got no time for the afterthought
They’re like ice cream for an astronaut
Well that’s me looking for we
Turn the corner and
Find the world at your command
Playing the hand…
