Red hot chili peppers this is the place lyrics

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

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

All I can do to you

Hammers are falling

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

All I can do to you



This is the place where all 

The devils plead 

Their 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

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

All I can do to you

Hammers are falling

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

All I can do to you



I saw you out there yesterday 

What did you want to say 

A perfect piece of DNA 

Caught in a flashing ray 

I caught you out there in the fray 

What did you want to say 

A master piece 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 gotta know 



This is my calling

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

All I can do to you

Hammers are falling

I said my darling

Shocking, appalling

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
