LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HONKY'S LADDER/THE AFGHAN WHIGS

Got you where I want you, motherfucker
I got five up on your dime
And if you wanna peep on something
Peep what I got stuck between your eyes
And since I don't believe a word you say
Save it for another baby brother
Swallow time to pay

Up on the ladder they sing how high?
Does a brother have to climb to touch the light
But wait 'till I get done with you
If you tell me
Don't get mixed up with the devil
That's exactly what I'm gonna do

Caught you while you waited
For your boy to come
And fix you up again
Come a little closer baby
I only wanna try to be your friend

Since I ain't got nothing left to lose
Got you where I want you
Motherfucker don't you try to move


Up on the ladder they sing how high?
Does a brother have to climb to touch the light
Won't you take me up there with you?
You said you would
No one ever could shake that ladder like I could

So I wait
And I wait
And I wait
And I wait

Up on the ladder they sing how high?
Does a brother have to climb to touch the light
Won't you take me up there with you?
You said you would
No one ever could shake that ladder like I could
