Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Is the Place (By The Way)
This is the place where all
The junkies go
Where time gets fast
But everything gets slow
Can I get some vaseline
Step into a modern scene
Take a chance on that
Which seems to be
The making of a dream
I don't want to do it
Like my daddy did
I don't want to give it
To my baby's kid
This is my calling
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
Heaven is fallin
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
This is the place
Where all the devils plead
There case to take from you
What they need
Can I isolate your gene
Can I kiss your dopamine
In a way I wonder
If she's living in a magazine
I don't want to say it
If it isn't so
I don't want to weigh it
But I've got to know
This is my calling
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
Heaven is fallin
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
I saw you out there yesterday
What did you want to say
A masterpiece of DNA
Caught in a flashing ray
I caught you out there in the fray
What did you want to say
A masterpiece of DNA
Caught in a flashing ray
Can I smell your gasoline
Can I pet your wolverine
On the day my best friend died
I could not get my copper clean
I don't want to take it up
With Little Joe
I don't want to fake it
But I've go to know
This is my calling
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
Heaven is fallin
And i say my darling
Chokin' and falling
All I can do to you
I am a misfit
I'm born with all of it
The fucking ultimate
Of love inside the atom split
I'm in a flash ray
A mash of DNA
Another poppin' Jay
Who thinks he's got
Something to say
Oooh, oooh, oh oh oh...
Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Is The Place (Rehearsal Demo) (04:09)
A rare demo recording of This Is The Place from 2001. These tapes were used to aid Anthony Kiedis
with his vocal timing. As with all these demos, they aren't anywhere close to being final mixes and
haven't been processed or mastered in any way, thus the vocals are significantly quieter than the
instrumental tracks. ***Apologies for the crappy visuals***
