Iceberg
X.Y.R. Lyrics

Life is a roller coaster that we all ride
Life is full of ups and downs that we all experience

Iceberg, I've fallen in love with an
I am infatuated with someone who seems cool and mysterious

Iceberg, its only the tip of the
I am aware that there is more to this person than what meets the eye

Iceberg, I've heard that it's cool
I've heard that this person is detached and unemotional

I got class, I got style
I am confident and well put-together

But once in a while out on the town
Sometimes I like to go out and have fun

I must go
I need to leave now

You'd better wash out your zone
You need to be careful and protect yourself

Watch out you stone bone headed woman
Be careful, stubborn woman

Watch out you bone headed man
Be careful, foolish man

Iceberg-it's settlin' over Second Avenue
There is a cold, detached feeling in the air

There's not a thing that you can
There is nothing you can do to change the situation

Iceberg-it's freezin' over Second Avenue
The cold feeling intensifies and becomes overwhelming

You'd better believe there's nothin'
You need to understand there is no changing what is happening

You can do about it
There is nothing you can do to stop it

I was an orphan and I couldn't help it
I am a victim of circumstance

I've been in and out of trouble
I have experienced hardship and difficulty in life

Ever since they left me in a basket
I have experienced abandonment from an early age

On the freeway
Left on the side of the road like trash

It's me that's been doggin' your shadow
I have been closely following and watching you

It's me that's been a shadowin' your dog
I have been following your pet as well

You got me hung up lock and stock and barrel
You have me completely infatuated and controlled

I'll always be behind you in the fog
I will be there even in unclear or difficult situations

So you better not annoy me
You need to be careful not to upset or provoke me

Or I'll do somethin' that I might regret
I may act impulsively if provoked

You'd better not annoy me or I'll do
You should take my warning seriously

Somethin' that you won't forget in a hurry
I will make sure my actions have a lasting impact on you

And I might be back for some sloppy seconds
I may return for more, even if it is not desirable

You've heard me heavy breathing on the telephone
You have heard me making strange or unsettling sounds

My word they say that I'm belongin'
People believe that I may be mentally ill

In a home for crazy people
A place where people with severe mental illness may be treated

But you know I don't belong there
Despite what others say, I do not believe I am mentally ill

Lie lie lie etc
Repetition of the word 'lie' to emphasize deception

Die die die (etc)
Repetition of the word 'die' to emphasize death or destruction

Hooray hooray ha ha ha
Sarcastic cheering, implying something is not good

Get down get down get down get down
Command to lower oneself in some way

There's really not a lot that you can do
There are limited options or solutions

Lay down lay down lay down lay down
Command to lie down or surrender

And I might be back for sloppy seconds
I may return for more, even if it is not desirable
