Can't Stop
Red Hot Chili Peppers

Can't stop, addicted to the shindig The world I love, the tears I drop
Chop Top, he says I'm gonna win big To be part of the wave, can't stop
Choose not a life of imitation Ever wonder if it's all for you?
Distant cousin to the reservation The world I love, the trains I hop
Defunkt, the pistol that you pay for To be part of the wave, can't stop
This punk, the feeling that you stay for Come and tell me when it's time to
In time, I want to be your best friend
East side love is living on the West End Wait a minute, I'm passing out, win or lose
Just like you
Knocked out, but, boy, you better come to Far more shocking than anything I ever knew
(oh) How 'bout you?
Don't die, you know, the truth as some do Ten more reasons why I need somebody
(oh) new
Go write your message on the pavement (oh) Just like you
Burn so bright, I wonder what the wave Far more shocking than anything I ever knew
meant Right on cue
White heat is screaming in the jungle (oh)
Complete the motion if you stumble (oh) Can't stop, addicted to the shindig
Go ask the dust for any answers (oh) Chop Top, he says I'm gonna win big
Come back strong with fifty belly dancers Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
The world I love, the tears I drop Defunkt, the pistol that you pay for (oh)
To be part of the wave, can't stop This punk, the feeling that you stay for (oh)
Ever wonder if it's all for you? In time, I want to be your best friend (oh)
The world I love, the trains I hop East side love is living on the West End
To be part of the wave, can't stop
Come and tell me when it's time to Knocked out, but boy, you better come to
(oh)
Sweetheart is bleeding in the snow cone Don't die, you know, the truth is some do (oh)
So smart, she's leading me to ozone Go write your message on the pavement (oh)
Music, the great communicator Burn so bright, I wonder what the wave
Use two sticks to make it in the nature meant
I'll get you into penetration Kick-start the golden generator
The gender of a generation Sweet talk, but don't intimidate her
The birth of every other nation Can't stop the gods from engineering
Worth your weight, the gold of meditation Feel no need for any interfering

This chapter's gonna be a close one (oh) Your image in the dictionary
This life is more than ordinary

Smoke rings, I know you're gonna blow one Can I get two, maybe even three of these?
(oh) Coming from the space to teach you of the
All on a spaceship, persevering (oh) Pleiades
Use my hands for everything but steering
Can't stop the spirits when they need you Can't stop the spirits when they need you
(oh) This life is more than just a read-through
Mop tops are happy when they feed you (oh)
J. Butterfly is in the treetop (oh)
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop
