"Sweet Revenge" lyrics - CHRIS CORNELL

CHRIS CORNELL
"Sweet Revenge"
(Chris Cornell / Jerome "J-Roc" Harmon / Tim Mosley / James Washington)

Everybody out for my blood
Everybody want my percent
I don't want to start going off
I don't want to start talking shit
They just want to take what is mine
How much more can you get
I already know what they want
I already know what they spent
Now maybe I think like a loner
But they looking for blood
I'm about to get what they owe
Gonna get back what they stole
Let me talk to the fans
Everytime I walk in the door
They just wanna take my advance
But I won't stop till they know
Walk with me now

When I retaliate you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
The pain and suffering will come to those
When I get even
It's such a sweet revenge
Sweet Revenge

I bet they won't stop till I quit
I bet they won't leave till I go
Ain't gonna hurt me a bit
One monkey won't stop the show
I've been through dirt and sand
Traveled to foreign lands
Been to hell and come back
I ain't gonna go there again
Why they wanna 'cause me to trip
Why they wanna see me take a fall
They wanna get something for nothing
Wanna see me jumpin' and runnin'
Let me talk to the fans
Never gonna stop doing this
Till I'm deep in the ground
I'm way too far to give in
Walk with me now

When I retaliate you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
The pain and suffering will come to those
When I get even
It's such a sweet revenge
Sweet revenge.
