AEROSMITH - NO SURPRIZE lyrics

rate me

Nineteen seventy one

We all heard the starters gun

New York is such a pity

But at Max's Kansas City we won

We all shot the shit at the bar

With Johnny O'Toole and his scar

And then old Clive Davis said

He's surely gonna make us a star

I'm gonna make you a star

Just the way you are

But with all his style

I could see in his eyes

That we is goin' to trial

It was No Surprise

The boys kept kickin' ass

As usual time would tell

But some bitch in the choir

Threw water on the fires of hell

She loved to show and tell

Lord she loved to tell

But with all our style

You could see in our eyes

That we is still on trial

And it was No Surprize

No Surprize

No Surprize

No Surprize

Midnight lady

Situation fetal

Vaccinate your ass

With a photograph needle

I say

Look it here

Friend of mine

Scratch like you need calomine

Flamingo boots

Sole's a creakin'

Still in love and Puerto Rican too

Ridin' on the wheels of hell

Smokin' in our axle grease

Oh the backstage is rockin'

And we're coppin' from the local police

That's right the local police

Or the justice of peace

But with all our style

You could see in our eyes

That we is still on trial

Baby it's No Surprise

No Surprise

No Surprise

No Surprise

Rock and roll

Junkie whore

Got my foot inside the door

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock

Nobody's keepin' score

Bad times

Go away

Come again some other day

Topaz and sazzafrazz

Will keep the blues away

Candy store

Rock and roll

Corporation jellyroll

Play the singles it ain't me

It's programmed insanity

You ascap

If BMI

Could ever make a mountain fly

If Japanese can boil teas

Then where the fuck's my royalties
