One man used his mighty voice to call

Was all for one, and baby, one for all

 

Bullets rang and he lost his life

It was a bloody day here in paradise

Paradise

It ain't hard to find

Lookin' out your window at the world outside

Paradise

It ain't far away

Here in my head it's just another day

Here in paradise

 

Now, cardboard boxes line these city streets

Playin' home for the hearts full of miseries

I got a room with a view that's nice

Just living on the hard side here in paradise

 

Yeah

Well, baby I was wrong

I should have said those things

I should have brought you flowers, love and wedding rings

I walk alone and I pay the price

For livin' on the wrong side of paradise

 

And I'm falling for paradise

And I'm falling for paradise

 

~BoDeans, Paradise (1991)

Down in C#$t Valley where jism does flow

and the co#^suckers fork for a nickel a blow,

That's where I met Lupe the girl I adore

she's a hot f##king, co##sucking Mexican whore
