Well you know they say
You better hold yourself tight
Where we go the sirens blow
The morning and the night
Judgement day is coming
You know this city's is humming
Round the back
With a sack full of honey
Big and bad and built to kill
all couped up in basement
What's the use of saving thrills
Just payin the price of waiting
Voices by the kitchen door
Protect yourself
Ain't I right this time
All the boys in here
Are slow and wet behind the ears
All the ladies get tied up
They ain’t been out in years
Ride your love girl
Leave your bags behind
Come on
You Strike a match with gasoline
You hunger for sensation
Fasten up your time machine
Forget your medication
You’re worse for wear
You say a prayer
And bless yourself
Ain’t I right this time?
Ain’t I right this time?
I’ve been wrong before
But I’m not blind
Ain’t I right this time?
Rock-rock-rock and roll
Catch a drift and there you go
We could take a risk and let it fly
Go-go-go you know
All the crimes against your soul
Well we could take a risk
And let it shine
Any way the wheels will grind and roll
Behind the scenes
It’s guns and god and love and war
And rock and sex and dreams, hey!
Ride your love girl
Leave your bags behind
Let’s go
All dressed up in lust and heels
And draped in fascination
Safety sits upon the dial
We tune into the station
Turn it off
No time to rest
Express yourself
Ain't I right this time?
Ain’t I right this time?
I’ve been wrong before
But I’m not blind
Ain’t I right this time?
Ain’t I right this time?
I’ve been wrong before
But I’m not blind
Ain’t I right this time?
*Lyrics for "Ain't I Right" were composed primarily by TK and Julian. They often brought the core idea and lyrics of a song to the group, and we would finish the music in the room together.

I contributed lyrics specifically to the choruses of this song.
