I was made in England out of Cadillac muscle
I had a quit-me father, had a love-me mother
I had Little Richard and that black piano
Oh that sweet Georgia Peach and the boy from Tupelo

Oh, I was made in England
Oh, I was made in England

I was made in England out of Cadillac muscle
Face down on a playground crying God send me a brother
Not a bloody nose for Rock and Roll
Give me that sweet Georgia Peach and the boy from Tupelo

I was made in England like a blue Cortina
But a Yankee summer had a way about her
You had a scent for scandal, well here’s my middle finger
I had forty years of pain and nothing to cling to

If you’re made in England, you’re built to last
You can still say ‘homo’ and everybody laughs
But the joke’s on you, you never read the song
They all think they know but they all got it wrong

If I wasn’t born to love you, why was I born at all
If I wasn’t meant to hold you, what are these two arms for
If I can’t protect you, what are these muscles for
If I can’t enrich your life, I might as well be poor
If I couldn’t see you naked, I might as well be blind
If I couldn’t treat you right, wouldn’t I be so unkind

And you were made for me
You were made for me
You weren’t born to be alone
And you were made for me

You were made for me
You were made for me
Flesh and bone, it’s etched in stone
That you were made for me

If I couldn’t translate fantasy, imagine how I’d feel
If I couldn’t hear your secret, my ears would both be sealed
And if I can’t make love to you, this body has no use
If you believe I loved you, you wouldn’t need no proof
And if I can’t return to you, I wouldn’t need my legs to run
And if I can’t draw warmth from you, why do I need this sun

Baby I’ve been waiting for some time
To find a way to free your mind, yeah
It’s the simple things you do to me
That makes my heart forget to beat, yeah yeah
But I ain’t here to try to play your fool, no no
I won’t ever beg for you
But heaven blessed the day you find
What you’ve been looking for
Well, my baby you’d better know

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you, yeah yeah

I guess I thought it was a dream
Locked up in a mystery
Can’t guess on what was meant to be
My soul just keeps on telling me, yeah yeah
‘Cause I can’t take this for another day
I’ve thought of us a hundred different ways
And I’d do anything for you
‘Cause you were made for lovin me
And me for lovin you.

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you, yeah yeah

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you, yeah

It’s time that you let me know baby
I ain’t going
I ain’t gonna play your games
Can’t face another day
There’s nothing left for me to say
Oh yeah, whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you, baby

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you, baby

Now I wanna take you higher
Don’t keep me waiting on the outside love
Can’t stop it if you wanted to
‘Cause I was made for lovin you

the legs of Maddox kitchen tables
my whole life twisted on a lathe
in a foreman’s torrent
my first English was
“faster boy if you want your pay”
barking commands
loud and simple
we could all obey

then I was forever pulling silvers
rubbed the sawdust always
deeper in my eye
varnish vapor that could linger
on my skin
it held tight
the whine of spinning blades
still echoes to bother my sleep at night

see that ox
stamped dead center
on the letter head of the company mail
four decades a spitting image
of the animal I portrayed
at Maddox Table a yoke was carved
for my neck

sun through the window oil spattered
and in mason jars
tricked plenty seeds thrive
the standing joke
around the shop was
with my green thumb
anything’d grow
my part was to laugh
show and ornery jig had
cut it at the knuckle bone

see that ox
trade mark burned
into every stick of furniture
from horn to tail
four decades a spitting image
of the animal I portrayed
at Maddox Table a yoke was carved
for my neck

was tailor made

o my Dolly was a weak
not a burdened girl
treat her to a piece of vaudville
a Wintergarden moving picture show
Bemus Point on July Sundays
by trolley we’d go

to your benefit we’s strike or bargain
with the waving fist a union man
not just for
smokes spirits candy and cologne
but for
automobile keys
cash in the bank
and the deed
on a place called home

The sunrise fills your eyes, cannot hear your cries
Pleading please just go away
I can’t take another day of this
No surprise, a surplus of lies, freed from the skies

Is there something that I missed?
Can’t even take another day of this
Lower than piss, have you ever felt like this?
She can’t recall the last time she avoided it
Lower than piss, have you ever felt like this?
Judging by your eyes like crystal balls
Madam Me is predicting that your answer will be yes

The sunrise burned out your eyes, failed to apologize
As it was eating at your face,
took your smile away without a trace of it
Warmer than piss have you ever felt like this?
It just might take a fever to encounter it
Knee deep in shit there’s no avoiding it
From your knees you’re coated brown,
to your toes there is no sound like this

And I will keep you warm in hell
And I will keep you warm in hell
And I will keep you warm in hell
Way down in hell

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces

Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
no expression
No expression

Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
no tomorrow
No tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which i?m dying
Are the best i?ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
?cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It?s a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday

Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me

Now the teacher tells me what?s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny…

I’ve been there before
A long time ago
But this time I wear no sandals
Ages past I gave all you people
Food and water
Three feet tall, so very small
I’m no trouble
I bring thunder and lightning
Sun and the rain
For all the people in the land
A message of love
I bring you from up above
All you children gather around
Come join your hands and sing along
They call me mad the swine
I guess I’m mad the swine
I’ve come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
I walk upon the water
Just as before
I help the meek and the mild
The believers and the blind
And all the creatures great and small
Let me take you to the river
Without a fall
Then one day you’ll realise
You’re all the same within his eyes
That’s all I’ve got to say
Just like before
They call me mad the swine
Mad the swine
Come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Don’t ever fail me
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
Come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Hands and praise the lord

Man, I ain’t got time 4 that girl
Say what?
Yeah, she always want 2 talk 2 somebody
Believe me, I know her
Yeah

I see U at another party
Dancin’ all over the place
Lookin’ 4 the perfect body
2 go with the perfect face

Bushy head mulatto breakdown
And your lips got wet 2day (Lips got wet 2day)
Same damn bird from London (Same damn cuckoo)
Finally had the nerve 2 say (What’d she say?)
(I’ll tell ya ? listen)

CHORUS:
I used 2 have mad sex in the horny morning
I used 2 have mad sex in the afternoon
I used 2 have mad sex when me and this mulatto go down
2 dirty up another room

Do it till your tattoo’s dizzy
And the stud in your mouth turns gold
Till the animal prints U flaunt so lovely
Is full of little bloody holes

Bushy head mulatto breakdown
And your lips got wet 2day
The same damn bird from London
Uh, finally had the nerve 2 say (What’d she say?)

CHORUS

Mad sex {x2}

Steppin’ up on the others tryin’ 2 make a jealous brotha
Get U nothin’ but another night of vibration
One nation under your groove and still U can’t break my cool

I see U at another party
Once again the talk of the town
Break another heart, U sorry… skench!
One day U’re gonna tumble down, down, down, down
(Tumble down, down, down)

Bushy head mulatto breakup
And U never really knew my name (What good is time)
What good is time if U take up (What good is time if U take up)
Every day 2 complain? (Oh)

CHORUS {x2}

Dirty up another, dirty up another, dirty up another room (Mad sex)
Oh yeah {x4} (Mad sex)
I used 2 have mad sex {x3}
(Mad sex)
2 dirty up another room (Dirty, dirty, dirty)
Mad sex {x2}
Dirty, dirty
Mad sex {x2}

I feel stupid – but I know it won’t last for long
I’ve been guessing – I coulda been guessin’ wrong
You don’t know me now
I kinda thought that you should somehow
Does that whole mad season got ya down

I feel stupid but it’s something that comes and goes
I’ve been changin’ – think it’s funny how now one knows
We don’t talk about – the little things that we do without
When that whole mad season comes around

So why ya gotta stand there
Looking like the answer now
It seems to me – you’d come around
I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out – I’m lost and I’m hopeless
Bleeding and broken – though I’ve never spoken
I come undone – in this mad season

I feel stupid – but I think I been catchin’ on
I feel ugly – but I know I still turn you on
You seem colder now, torn apart, angry, turned around
Will that whole mad season knock you down

So are you gonna stand there
Are you gonna help me out
You need to be together now – I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out – I’m lost and I’m hopeless
Bleeding and broken – though I’ve never spoken
I come undone – in this mad season

Now I’m cryin’ – isn’t that what you want
I’m tryin’ to live my life on my own
But I won’t
At times – I do believe I am strong
So someone tell me why, why, why
Do I, I, I feel stupid
And I came undone
And I came undone

I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out – I’m lost and I’m hopeless
Bleeding and broken – though I’ve never spoken

I need you now
Do you think you can cope
You figured me out – I’m a child and I’m hopeless
Bleeding and broken – though I’ve never spoken
I come undone – in this mad season

In this mad season
There’s been a mad season
Been a mad season

You caught me with your eyes
I can feel what’s on your mind
Just like a gentle breeze
Touching only when you please
CHORUS 1
Shut down
She’s a mad queen
Watch out
She’s a love machine
I fall into a trance
Every time I watch you dance
Let’s end what you’ve begun
Sure your love, hat you have done
CHORUS 2
CHORUS 3
CHORUS 4
CHORUS 5
