The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Royal Oil
[Chorus]
Royal Oil, come on bubble and boil
Stab like dagger
Will make you stagger on a hot tin foil
Mind your mind or it will surely spoil
And then you sleep down in the soil
Nothing come from nothing, come on
Royal Oil

[Verse 1]
When you smoke or poke the poison (Yo) [?]
You lose the chance to be tomorrow (You're gonna lose the chance)
Look out on the horizon
And see the sadness, the pain and the sorrow

[Refrain]
I can't say enough about the stuff (Ooh-ooh)
Or what it has in store (Ooh-ooh)
When you smoke or poke the poison (Ooh-ooh)
You won't be anymore

[Chorus]
Royal Oil, come on bubble and boil
Stab like dagger
Will make you stagger on a hot tin foil
Mind your mind or it will surely spoil
And then you sleep down in the soil
Nothing come from nothing, come on
Royal Oil
[Verse 2]
Royal Oil has cut many down to size
Spikes strike the weak and strong alike
And then forever and ever close those eyes

[Refrain]
Make up your mind to keep your mind up
And to your life be loyal
Nothing come from nothing, come on
Royal Oil

[Bridge]
Make up your mind, keep up your mind
And to your life you've got to be loyal

[Outro]
(Royal Oil, come on bubble and boil)
Royal Oil, big trouble brewin'
(Stab like dagger, make you stagger on a hot tin foil)
Long lonely road, long road to ruin
(Mind your mind or it will surely spoil)
Wrong path to take, great big mistake
And then you sleep down in the soil
Nothing come from nothing, come on
Royal Oil
Then you sleep down in the soil
Yeah, ya gonna sleep down in the soil
And then you sleep down in the soil
Nothing come from nothing, come on
Royal Oil
