Friends and Lovers Lyrics


All my friends and all my lovers are dead
Some from cheap narcotics and others from lead
The filthy rich and the dirt, dirt poor
Are all the same when they can't take no more
'Cause all my friends and all my lovers are deadA slit wrist leaves a mess
On the breakfast table, oh yes
Betta' cut deep 'fore you go to sleep
But in the morning you're the one who gonna have to cleanDays I've seen make a priest lose his beliefs
Like Kathy crawlin' 'cross the carpet in the bloodstained briefs
Chewin' pills like she was starvin' for a taste of relief
Her last wind was in the trash can, couldn't beat the diseaseAll my friends and all my lovers are dead
Some from cheap narcotics and others from lead
The filthy rich and the dirt, dirt poor
Are all the same when they can't take no more
'Cause all my friends and all my lovers are deadJohnny made a record, went straight to number one
But Johnny had a little fascination with guns
And cocaine, he couldn't stand to take the slow train
Got a little fortune, lost his breaks in the rain, oohWhat to do when your luck is through?

Whether you come from the slums or live in Malibu
Seen runnin' down the avenue
Mickey Avalon with an attitudeAll my friends and all my lovers are dead
Some from cheap narcotics and others from lead
The filthy rich and the dirt, dirt poor
Are all the same when they can't take no more
'Cause all my friends and all my lovers are deadLean Lee Tucker was a mean motherfucker
Seen him knock a man clean out his corduroy slippers
And that same man's queen but in the monster truck and hit him
Found him lifeless as a log in the Mississippi riverTara was a stripper
Tara done that shit with a smile on her face and her hand on her liver
But I ain't mad, I forgive her
I just get a little sad every time I fuck her sister

Mickey Avalon (real name Yeshe Perl) is a rap artist from Hollywood, California. His debut self-titled solo album was released Nov. 7, 2006 on Interscope/Shoot to Kill Records in association with MySpace Records. Avalon blends dark, lewd, and crizzled lyrical hooks with hip-hop beats.

Frequent topics of Avalon's songs are his experiences with substance abuse and prostitution. His family upbringing was tumultuous and both he and his parents were involved with drugs. Avalon's paternal grandparents are Holocaust survivors; both endured lasting injuries from their imprisonment at Auschwitz.

Avalon is friends with Antonio, who encouraged Avalon to write lyrics and perform when Mickey was broke and living on Anton's sofa. Avalon soon gained a following in the Los Angeles nightclub scene. He has since enjoyed a surge in popularity partly due to promotion of his music on the MySpace website.
