Slinky Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum; Lyrics: N. Hexum


I was at this club minding my tea
I saw this fine young thing so I thought that I would see
I don't smoke but I asked her for a cigarette
I know it's lame but I haven't got a better one yet
You guess the rest I'm not the type to fess
I sing this song because I tell you she's the best

That slinky girl is in my brain
Now I'll never be the same
No one can ever see
What that slinky girl means to me

So I'll just pretend
But I feel like

Mackadocious she's sweet and precocious
She's the one girl that I just dig, love, yes I'm not above this
You think that's wack then bro you lack
You bore me that macho crap makes me snore, see, me,
I'm all about the females, the women, the jewels of this world
Those flowers like that slinky girl

Chorus

Well I met her one night I'd seen her before
She stole my brain then showed me the door
Girls that do me like that there's not many
But I've met one, that's plenty
I'm glad to say that she gets her way
She can move me and that's okay
Has the power to turn paper inky
The girl has me and she's so

Feels So Good Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/D. Martinez; Lyrics: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/D. Martinez


Well everybody got opinion that's loud and unbending
I spend my time healing and mending together
It's a question of whether live positive, well I give
P-Nut is a brother that's always got a girlfriend
I say the lyrics that'll put you in a whirlwind
Ese' has the wisdom of a Noble Laureate
I'm down for our days of glory
It's easy to do when you're up with Sexton
A rythmatic genius churnin' out the next one
But you know bro I flow in this circumstance
You'll get your chance

Just take a moment to have a fit once in a while
I do it daily and like it but that's my style, here I go
In your face
Feels so good
In your face
Feels so good

Go Ese'
Trip this get up on the tipness
Don't sweat or let it set once you grab it
Come and get some to have and to flaunt
Know about it know I got the news if you want
I pocket I lock it I sock it your mind I rock it
Shell shocked it maybe I groove dammit I know it
F up the truth that's how I show it
In the half light Ese' sounds Nicks a night light
I'm rappin' he's snappin' on
Something you might like now
Don't frown if I chose to
Cut it up brothers you can't take it with you

Chorus

Get this my stream of consciousness is a sea
Much like Bukowski with a rage
Speaking to the page beasts in the cage
Jumping off the stage, diving
Thriving, striving, for a better day Ese'
Beat back by flesh shattered doors
Bragging fists to the sky you're feelin' high
Yes to live and die

Chorus

(Additional vocals by Ese' Martinez)

Do you right Top of Page
Music: C. Sexton/N. Hexum; Lyrics: C. Sexton/N. Hexum


I don't insist I am no fabulist
You can take it take it don't leave it
Just let loose I will tell the truth
I hope you like it, my thoughts all I got

I stare at the curl of your hair
At the stregnth of your charm
I feel like I'd give my left arm
But I'm sure that you've heard this before

And when we spend the night I check if you're alright
How it was, I don't mean to bug
If it ended now I would just think of how
How it was, in love yes in love

Bridge

Like I said before I'll say it once more
Knew you would make me feel so good
Wanna do you right
Can't get enough this is the stuff
Life's about and it trips me out
Wanna do you right

You are so good to me I just want to see
That picture of you you gave me
Though it fell out of my pocket
It hangs like a locket in my head
It'll be there til' I'm dead

Bridge

Summer Of Love Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum; Lyrics: N. Hexum


I thought about my scene today
And I've finally got the words to say
The truth is cutting like a knife
Gonna use it to cut away my strife
The grass is green and the sky is blue
My head is clear and my thoughts are true

Callin' out young and old
We got a thing that can't be sold
The time that takes to rise above
In the summer of love

It's the summer of love I say

I wake up each day to the sun
And it's hard to chose what to do for fun
A blissful world surrounds me
And my brothers and sisters love is always free
Don't you know that I've waited my whole life
Just to show what's inside and let my love flow
That's what I'm sayin'

Chorus

Dub break (figure it out)

Unity Top of Page
Music: C. Sexton/N. Hexum; Lyrics: C. Sexton/N. Hexum


Even if I cared to try I couldn't please them
Their petty complaints stupid restraints ain't gonna work
It's all to cheese and
Regret, don't fret, just push it away
And say I'm like the wind, relentless and irritating
A position that I think worth stating
Swing I'm doin' my thing
Groove I'm showin' and provin'
That maverick deal that makes you feel ill
It runs in my family
Fussin' and cussin' and bitchin' and kickin'
If you ask me I think that you're just chicken to try
Don't pretend you're my friend
Remember I said it one day you'll regret it
Oh god I can't believe
You have asked and so you shall receive it in the ear
Victory draws near but no fear my dear
I'll be here another year

What's it all about I scan a new plan for the next year in
Nineties try these you wanna just bust out
I cool out and I'm done bein' mad
To just know hate well that's so sad what a life, strife
Backfire in your face know your place come on like
Word they come like a heard but they said
We'd drop like a lead zeppelin in your face
But that's nothin' hometeam
I ain't got to my ace in the whole yet, bet that I will
Get my fill, get my thrill we'll
Be back one day and we'll try not to spite
But until then you stay out of my sight
Oh god I can't believe it this grooves so dope
I'm about to have a fit and here's a flash
I freaked so hard I got whiplash
And when it comes to writing stay away from our stash

Swing I'm doin' my thing
Groove I'm showin' and provin'
That maverick deal that maks you feel ill
It runs in my family
Steppin' and goin' and lyin' and cryin'
My brain is on fire it feels like I'm flying through space
Yea, doing my best but It'll get better this much I confess
Oh god I can't believe it but when this era's through
I'll say that's it
Edification will take place pull up the reigns
And get out of the race
My bros are down for the unity
311 is down for the unity
Unanimity of the unity

Down South Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/M. Watkins/T. Mahoney; Lyrics: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/M. Watkins/T. Mahoney


Let me take you down south
Hear it from the dover's mouth
The rhythm will make you want to move your body
I had it once and never ever forgot it
Feel the rhythm of rhapsody
Your body moves in raw ecstasy
Explosive eruption beyond compare

Take my advice don't think twice
Let me take you way down south

Step back cuz the funk is here and
The base is kickin' straight to your ear man
Because it's like that so don't talk back
And if you do then you're gonna get the back slap
Down south that's an enigma
But to you it's a stupid dumb stigma
That's right it's outta sight

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
She loves me don't mean maybe
She knows what I think and I don't have to say it
I love her so I don't have to play it
We sit and drink in the sun
I raise my glass and say she's the one
Cool breeze light squeeze life

Take my advice don't think twice
Let me take you way down south

Step back I'm about to get hectic
Chalk it up as another dialectic
Hard like a jam
Smooth like a ballad
Call it what you want but I call it sound salad
A salad grown in the garden of Eden
Seekin' out pleasures like my boys in Sweden
That's right the grooves tight like
Sit back just relax, let your mind unwind
Pull your good thing close, let tranquility surround
Psychedelic freak out taco funk frolic
Grind fiend roots 'core soul music what have you

Step back and think about the topic of this song
Strong innuendo end over end goes your brain
I won't say it's plain figure it out here's a clue
It's about winding, grinding, finding that spot
That get's her hot the joy of giving pleasure
Is beyond measure

Right Now Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/C. Grubb; Lyrics: N. Hexum/C. Sexton/C. Grubb


And I, I notice the tapestries on the wall as well
And I, I stand up and hit my head on the mobile
And you, you look around too
And we, time passes easily

I've opened up my mind
So you can step inside
You can expect to find
A scenic ride

Pointyhead pizzeria perfect penetration
Mezcal cuts off my brain communication
Belligerence, lost my intellegence
Talkin mess like shut up and listen to me
Because cuttin' through the crap is my specialty
Like a bomb I'm droppin yes a ton a lead
You're tryin' to figure out the last thing I said
I'm a Redwood, I love to be a tree yes I'm a Druid
My words they're flowin' out like a fluid
Never give in never conform
I'll be bustin out rhymes in a triplet form
Right Now

In another room, I sit and contemplate
That winter night, my words were filled with hate
In second sight, I should have known my fate
But it's allright, now we're in a different state

Chorus

Expiate, to make amends for hostilities
It's easy to see that for me, in reality
I'm not one of those fools
With an ecclesiastical whitewash
To set my ethical standards
You'll never cathc me lookin' to Ann Landers
Or Moses or the law or even Buddha
If there's one thing I know
It's always be true to myself
And learn from experience
Educated by nights of violence, trips to jail,
Broken knuckles and friendships
But that gives me the power to write a groove that rips
Right Now
I Am

C.U.T.M. Top of Page
Music: N. Hexum/A. Wills; Lyrics: N. Hexum/A. Wills


Hexum, Sexton, Mahoney and Wills
We groove so fuckin' hard it gives you the chills
Well I've been stricken
The bass is kickin'
When suckers step to me, boy, I give them a lickin'

Chorus
Cosmic Utopian Thrivin' Mission, my baby
Cosmic Utopian Thrivin' Mission, my baby

I feel good
Yo bad self

Well, I am the Hexum, call me Nick
I live by the code of cosmic
I've come to say, we're here to stay
Utopian way we'll play today
We've got the drive, we are so live
Won't take a dive, we're gonna thrive
We got a condition called ambition
To the cosmic utopian thrivin' mission

Chorus

Witness this, yo the pissed lyricist
In your face celebratin' a brand new race
We know colors are just brothers and some others
Drive on the ginger but they failed to mention
The consequence of no conscience
You can't fool, I'm schoolin' you with the new school
Now speakin on a round, step back mother fucker, I'm goin' to town

Chorus

I feel good
Break it down
I got one more rhyme

Yes, the verbs I got
They hit that spot
The crowd is freakin'
And bro., I'm peekin'
When I'm on stage, you're havin' a fit
But without my brothers, baby, I ain't shit

Chorus
