lyrics

Malibu (Mental Excursion)
(Dedicated to Malibu and Paradise)

Verse One
Walking in the desert, you need an oasis
Mirage of ménage-a-trois and you can taste it
Dunes hide Shangri-La behind sands
Nirvana be as close as the grand in your hand
There’s a room with a view for a man like you
You get tip top status if you paying your dues
She’ll bring an umbrella keep her dry up in the rain
But her eyes of seduction, have it storming again
Your throat is dry, but you feel intoxicated
Cuervo’s pharaoh, while you there debating
In paradise now, when the deejay spin
Time is eternal in the world you in
Got paid with the grade, got cabbage to spend
Now you play for the next day or you go all in
You say you the man, but you tense up in the seat
While she dancing on the stage, you mental dancing in the sheets

Verse Two
You’d never recognize the royalty on the streets
She the mama with no drama straight walking the beat
Cool and smooth still come the radiation
Can’t be in her presence without the levitation
Like bees to the honey, them brothers do fly
Got a piece of advice, there’s no need to even try
She got love in her life and she don’t be needing you
And the thousands and one things you be trying to do
So save your ego and save your time
‘Cause her mind’s on her money and her money on her mind
Her best friend BR backing up all behind
And her girl’s at home pouring a glass of wine
Satisfy yourself with ten minutes of fame
It’s Russian Roulette with the vet and that’s the game
Get back out in the desert, start journeys anew
Just remember your moment of heaven in Malibu
