This Ticonderoga Lyrics - Red Hot Chili Peppers

1 I met a man in a rock and roll band

2 He said, "Won't you come with me?"

3 I let him know that I could not go

4 You see, I get mine for free

5 We are all just soldiers

6 In this battlefield of life

7 One thing that's for certain

8 Is my burning appetite

9 Step inside the emotional ride

10 I could use some company

11 Illusionary is so damn scary

12 I call my best friend "Flea"

13 This Ticonderoga

14 Is an element that shines

15 Connected by the great unknown

16 Between us there are lines

17 Yes, I told her that I'm the older cat

18 Can I scratch your back all day?

19 I would not have it any other way

20 Well, means so much to me

21 Can you see the we?

22 What are we ever gonna do

23 When all I want to be is next to you?

24 I took a girl from the underworld

25 And I held her way too tight

26 When it's all been said and done

27 She was not up for the fight

28 We are all just soldiers

29 In this open field of time

30 Hoping to get with you

31 When you get right with your mind

32 It's my favorite, so I savor it

33 I must report that life is short

34 So, of your love I'll take ten quarts

35 Well, there's no end to this

36 Don't pretend to miss

37 You and you would not repent

38 For sitting on my elephant

39 And am I crazy to join the lazy zoo

40 All these human butterflies

41 And cactus flowers' swollen eyes

42 And I want the devil's share

43 Of you I do declare

44 Again I'm asking can I do

45 When all these animals

46 Want to be just like you

47 I met a girl with long black hair

48 And she opened up so wide

49 A daffodil growing in Brazil

50 And I picked her for my bride

51 We are all just soldiers

52 In this epic, loving flight

53 And no one that I know

54 Has ever really done it right

55 Done it right

56 Done it right

57 Done it right

58 Done it right
