Darkside Lyrics

[Intro]
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior (Say what?)
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best (Say what?)

[Verse 1: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Punk rock, steel-toes, horns and halos
Wicked white wings and a pointed tail
Devil's eyes and nine inch nails
Nocturnal renegades, the eternal drug raid
I go by the name of Mr. Shifty Switchblade
Gettin' paid in the shade as lyrics ricochet
Off the walls, from the ceiling to the floor
Off the door, and down the hall

I'm evil like Knievel, kicking white trash
Psycho cerebral palsy, ballsy, bad-ass
Dressed in black from the wrong side of the tracks
Crazy Town, yo, we strike like "Deep Impact"


[Chorus: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Why can't you see?
I cannot feel 'til you bring me down
Why can't you see?
I cannot feel 'til you bring me down! (Down!)
'Til you bring me down! (Down!)
Down...
[Refrain]
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior (Say what?)
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best (Say what?)

[Verse 2: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Subconsciously, I'm launched into evil territory
I'm surrounded by voyeurs and crack-smoking lawyers
No shame, burnt lips, trippin' on acid rain
Legally insane, deranged, some people never change


[Chorus: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Why can't you see?
I cannot feel 'til you bring me down
Why can't you see?
I cannot feel 'til you bring me down! (Down!)
'Til you bring me down! (Down!)
Down...

[Refrain]
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior (Say what?)
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best (Say what?)
[Verse 3: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Nasty, na-na, ha-ha, darkside marijuana
Fueled of the drama driftin' on the darkside
I'm the black-eyed bomber, do what I do
On a darkside rendezvous
Raising hell, out the shell of fantasies I never tell
Unearthin' untamed perversion
My bad brain's workin', circle-jerkin'
Rocking riddles, sex pistol, sex-perts acting uncivil


[Chorus: Epic "Bret" Mazur & Shifty Shellshock]
Why can't you see?
I cannot feel 'til you bring me down! (Down!)
'Til you bring me down! (Down!)
Down...

[Refrain]
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures, bad behavior
Dreamlands of danger
Darkside pleasures at their best
