Not My Business By Mike Skill Skillsongs
One day you're gonna fall down on your face
Your friends will all be gone without a trace
And daddy won't be there to catch your fall Square one won't look bad after all
And now you're lookin' out for compromise
Expecting me to stand and share your lies
Well it's not my business
No it's not my business
It's all about you, don't mean a thing to me
And now you're on your own, you seem to lose your way
While doubt and chaos rule your drama play
And the time we shared made for one long ride
And now I know I can't rearrange your mind
Knockin' down another compromise
Up all night with your hopeless alibis
Hey it's not my business
No it's not my business
Well it's all about you, don't mean a thing to me
No it's not my business
No it's not my business
Not a thing I can do, don't mean a thing to me
The wolves are baying, got you up against the wall
Trust funds waiting, and you're broken now
You lost your will cause poor's just not your style
An evil path for high society's child
Wondering where have the good times gone
Facing life will only make you strong
It's not my business
No it's not my business (not my business)
It's all about you, don't mean a thing to me
I know it's not my business
No it's not my business (not my business)
Not a thing I can do, don't mean a thing to me
I know not my business
No it's not my business (not my business) I
t's all about you, don't mean a thing to me.....

Dark Side Of Your Love Lyrics
Music and Lyrics by Mike Skill
THROW ME AN ANSWER, WHEN YOU GET THE TIME
I BUILD ME A BRIDGE, WHEN I GOT A GOOD MIND
CATCH ME WHEN I’M FALLIN,’ WHEN YOU’RE FEELING BRAVE WITH A DRAWER FULL OF LETTERS, MIGHT BE WORTH THE SAVE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF ROMANCE,
DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE, DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE
FOUND A CASTLE FALLING, LEARNED A HARD LESSON, GETTING’ USED TO THE QUIET, ANOTHER SIDE OF ROMANCE THE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE,
LA LA LA LA LALALALALA, OTHER SIDE OF ROMANCE
DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE
GUITAR SOLO 2 MORE TIMES DRUM BREAK
NO MORE QUESTIONS,
SHE’S A FALLEN ANGEL,
PLAYIN THE NUMBERS,
LET ME CATCH MY BREATH, THEY COME AND THEY GO ON THE OTHER SIDE OF ROMANCE
JUST NEVER KNOW THE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE 4X WHERE I CAN HANG MY HEART YOU STOP AND YOU START WHEN NO ONE HOME.
THE DARK SIDE OF YOUR LOVE
2X
WELL I’M ON FIRE PREACHIN TO THE CHOIR SUN QUIT SHININ’ LET’S GO INTO PLAY
HEAR ME CALLIN
PUT YOUR HEART AWAY,
WORDS ARE BROKEN
THEY FALL THEY WON’T STAND UP, SUN QUIT SHININ’ JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH

MY BAD PRETTY
By Mike Skill
You break my heart cheatin most every nite
In the Mornin’ wake up and fight
I brought you in thinkin you might stay
Gave you Love and you throw it all away
My my bad pretty, my my bad pretty
My my bad pretty
We shared it all always had nice things
High times New car gold diamond rings
I know for love you just pay and pay
And girl you know that I
Gave you love all my love
You didn’t know what that was all about
All my Soul All my Heart
But you were gone yeah right from the start
Solo
I don’t forget about mistakes that I made
It brings me down with every trick that you
Now your runnin but you won’t far
And girl you know that I
Gave you Love All my Love
You didn’t know what that was all about
All my Soul All my Heart
You were gone yeah right from the start
My my Bad Pretty...

‘67 Riot
Lyrics and Music by: Michael Skill
4 am down the Street
Cops roll in with all the Heat
Blind Pig roaring Kickin’ their Heels Soldiers home jus’ getting’ real
Rooftop sniper set the Sight Burnin’ cocktails Flash in Flight
Broken city Broken Dreams
Things aren’t always what they seem
’67 Riot (3)
Corner of Clairmont old 12th street Smoke and Fire dominate the scene
National Guard Riot gear Innocent folk gripped with Fear
So much Lost Nothin’ gained Detroit City filed with Pain
Broken Heart Broken Dreams Things aren’t always what they seem
’67 Riot (3)
SOLO
‘67 Riot (3)
See the Workin’ folks doin’ their Best Risin’ up when they’re Hard pressed
And they’ll take matters in their Hands Don’t be surprised by the Flames you Fan
Phantom Powers count on us
To Explode React Break Loves Trust
Try to Warm your Heart Dream your Dreams Break the Chain let’s start Clean
’67 Riot

The clocks ticking down minutes on the wall
Cass Corridor sirens scream from dusk til dawn Let’s go downstairs and find the Happy Man
Red and purple flashes trippin’ a ‘lectric Cosmic Jam
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Yeah Yeah Yeah
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Rock’n Roll
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Yeah Yeah Yeah

Silk and Satin panties stroll the Starwood Lounge Long haired Rockers throbbing like Baskerville Hounds Sexed up producers play a dirty game
damn the casting couch let it all go up in flames
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Yeah Yeah Yeah
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Rock’n Roll
We Got Your Rock’n Roll Yeah Yeah Yeah
We Got Your Rock’n Roll
Solo Chorus
I’m an Iggy Sympathizer
A Scott Rationalizer
A Wayne K Rocker
A Fred Sonic Shocker

CALLING. LYRICS
by Mike Skill & Chuck Alkazian
Opened my eyes
Hard to believe
How/ Static and noise
So/ Arrested me
Frozen in time
All up / inside of my head
Calling Your Name
Opened my Heart
Unleashing me
Out of the Dark
Unshackled and Free
Just out of sight/
you’ve always carried the light
Broken and calling your name
Opened my Heart
Unleashing me
Out of the Dark
Unshackled & Free
Oh Just out of sight/
you’ve always carried the light
I’m calling your name
You gave me love
Without reservation
In this world
of self preservation
Tired and torn from chasing the wind
Love lost nevermore
Yes we’ll find a way
We could hide or stay
Until it’s over
Til it’s over
Now if we don’t go
Will we ever know
Let’s run for cover
We’re under cover
Until it’s over
Will we ever know

One More Time Lyrics
By Brad Elvis
I’ve got a story
I need to tell
My Girl left me
I don’t feel so well
She took her good thing far away
It shook me cold on a summers day
Come back baby. Come on back
Come on honey. Let’s make it last
One more time/One more time/One more time
We had a good thing. We had it bad
I said somethin’ and you got mad
I sit here thinking wonder’n what I do
And now I’m thinkin’ I’m somebody new
Come on baby. Come on back
Come on honey Let’s make it last
One mortise. One more time. One more time
I’m here dreamin’ a knock on my door
You got me crawlin’ across the floor
I brought you flowers to make it ok
I’m countin’ hours jus’ to hear you say
One More Time…
