      Complications of a mastermind...







Lyrics:



Get on Top Get on Top 



Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me 



Go-rilla cunt-illa

Sammy D and Salmonella

Come with me 'cause I'm an ass killer

You're ill but I'm iller 



I'll malinger on your block and

Give the finger to a cop and

Pick a lock before I knock and

Set you up to get on top 



Chorus:

Complications of a mastermind

Last temptation of my kind

Extra planetary sign

When do we align

All in time

Right on 



Get up come sit up I light but she lit up 



Grass Hopper Show Stopper

The life of a Wife Swapper

Come with me 'cause I'm a big bopper

You do but I wopper 



Exterminate my cause

You want to draw some straws

Be the one to see my flaws

Make me bleed with painted claws 



Chorus 



Get on Top Get on Top 



Hit me come get me I bite but she bit me 



Speed Baller Rhodes Scholar

Bottom Bitch And a Bottom Dollar

Come with me Gcause I'm a Free Faller

You hoot but I holler 



I'll malinger on your block

Give the finger to a cop and

Pick a lock before I knock on

Set you up to get on top 



Get on Top

This note is appended to my unfinished tabs.  The last couple 

of days I have been working on transcribing the chili peppers 

new album for guitar, and in some cases for bass too 

(although i've hardly ever picked up a bass)   :)      



I've done some of most of the tracks tonight, but I've got a 

major due yesterday and I've got test week coming up... it's 

too much to finish.  I have tabbed the intros and maybe verses 

to most of the songs, to give everyone a start - the idea is 

to get a network of people tabbing the album so it can be 

accurate and available for bands in the near future!  I don't 

play bass or drums, it would be great if other people could 

help out with transcribing instruments, thanks.  



The other idea of tabbing a little bit is to give all you 

guitarists a start; and please help with the tabbing if you 

think you've got better versions/methods/whatever.  If you 

have any corrections, additions (I haven't added song layouts; 

where choruses go and how many verse riffs to play etc... 

these layouts are really helpful for bands), or comments to 

add then don't be lazy and ignore it, email...!  Everyone who 

contributes will get credit, and thanks in advance for your 

effort.



If you want more transription of this particular track, the 

solo, or whatever, then send me or some other transcriber a

_friendly polite_ email with a request of what you're after.

  :)    If we get a lot of requests for a particular song, 

it will get more priority... but polite requests get the 

most attention.



Sorry 'bout the legal stuff at the top, 

but it's gotta be there.  :)
