Martini Lyrics


She was a new mean beauty queen, money, drugs, magazines
That didn't do nothin', that didn't do nothin'
They gave her diamonds, shiny boys, city speak every toy
That didn't do nothin', no, nothin' for herYou can lead a horse to water but you can't expect it to drink
Now ain't that somethin'? Now ain't that somethin'?
Yeah, when the world is at your gate, that won't satiate
Why are you cryin' if you offer nothin' at all?Don't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry aboutFlash cars, booze and bars, trial and a drown in the scars
It won't do nothing, it won't do nothing
Even the best frame won't change your wet paintin'
Into the Mona Lisa, the Mona LisaYou've got to dry your eyes baby, I know it's your party
And you cry if you want to, cry if you want to
Yeah, when the world is at your gate and that don't fill your plate
Why are you cryin'? You offer nothin' at allDon't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry aboutA fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight

Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry aboutDon't be a fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry aboutA fly in my Martini, baby, come on down
That roof is high and I'm not climbin' tonight
Come down and I'll give you somethin', hey, to cry about

1. Incubus is a five-man alternative rock band formed in 1991, based in Calabasas, California. Members include Brandon Boyd (vocals and percussion), Mike Einziger (guitar), Ben Kenney (bass), Jose Pasillas II (drums) and DJ Chris Kilmore (turntables). Former members of the band include Gavin Koppel (a.k.a. DJ Lyfe) (turntables) and Alex Katunich (a.k.a. Dirk Lance) (bass). The band's name may seem a peculiar choice to fans, as an incubus is a type of demon that, in mythological lore, comes in the night and has sex with women while they are sleeping; it seduces them in their dreams The story behind the name is that the band needed to think of a name hours before their first show and, after a few failed choices, Mike looked in a dictionary and chose "Incubus" almost at random. Mike says that the name was chosen because it sounded silly; Brandon holds that it was chosen because they were teenagers and the definition had the word "sex" in it. "We really didn't want to rape women in their sleep. But, we were fifteen and it seemed harmless to us then, and we never changed it," says the band. Incubus has also tried to cover their tracks by stating that they got the name from a plant in South America that produces mind-altering chemicals. However, the fabled Incubus plant does not actually exist.

Incubus has released six albums and two EP's to date.

2. A death/thrash metal band from Metairie, Louisiana. The band was made up of Francis Howard (guitar/vocals), Moyses Howard (drums), Andre Luiz (bass), and Luiz Carlos (guitar). The two Howard brothers are actually from Brazil, and immigrated to Louisiana. This Incubus has released one demo, and two albums, with one album being remastered and re-released with a different track listing. This band has changed their name to Opprobrium.
