Tricky

Can't be with the one you love then love the one you're with

Spliff in the ashtray, red stripe I pull the lid
Her touch tickles, especially when she's gentle
But I don't hear her words 'cause I sod the instrumental

Keep the girl in the distance, moves are very hazy
No sunshine in my life the way I deal is shady


3D

Skip hip data to get the anti-matter

Blue lines are the reason why the temple had to shatter
To the sound of silence surrounded by the mass
Her face is on the paper not the strangers that I pass

The ones I'm looking back to see if they are looking back at me

Daddy G


Are you predator or do you fear me


3D

Yeah while I'm doing this I know

The place I really wanna go's
The one I love but never gets near me


Tricky

It's a beautiful day, well it seems as such

Beautiful thoughts whereas I dream too much
Even if I told you, you still would not know me
Tricky never does, adrian mostly gets lonely

How we live in this existence, just being
English upbringing, background carribean


3D

It's the way that we bui-l-d

Sharing a soliloquy
We cut the broken thread from flexibility
Mi chiamo 3D si sono Inglese

No sunshine in my life 'cause the way I deal is hazy
Live from day to day-zy 'cause I'm on my toes
While contemporaries of mine remaining comatose


Tricky


There's a looking glass she's looking through
She hated me, but then she loved me too
I'd lie not try so I lost faith

Then turn to her to keep the faith
She told me take an occupation or you lose your mind
And on a nine to five lemon, looking for the lime


3D


Box clever, watch your system come together
Crazy weather at the end of my tether


Daddy G

Massive in the area, murderer

Attackin' any area, murderer

3D


Some go softly softly round the habitat
Ratchet in the right hand

They got no one to stab it at
Take a walk Billy, don't be a hero
Effort's on minimal though almost touch zero

Excommunicated from the brotherhood of man
To wander lonely as a puzzled anagram


Car paint blue, green, primer and zinc
Take it to extremities for purple and pink
I feel the colours fill my room beneath the patter of the rain
I can't stand the drops that dribble down my windowpane
They wash away my shadow and don't even leave a mark upon my soul

They leave the rainbows in the dark

Tricky

Blues get big, Massive are even larger

Save nuff space into the tricky tardis
We'd trawl what I saw thrown down in darren's hall
People laying their claim
In stormy weather it's rain


3D

But you're living on a see-saw

Tricky


I try to see more

3D

Somebody died, did he? Nobody

Walking on sunshine, but still we're treading water
The son of many reasons searching for the daughter
Seeking knowledge, not acknowledging the jetset
Silver papers of the sound within my budakon headset
The solar system watches in wisdom
The children dance as the moonlight kissed them


Tricky

To Massive attack Matt Black appear wearing beads
Two hours traveling so I wrote this on repeat
Always living fast, people getting jumpy
Where on ?gruggy? falls I just do the walter crumpy
Microphone's so close, crowd's so far apart

Take my piece of mind and sign my name across your heart
