Dark Necessities

Written by：Brian Burton / Anthony Kiedis / Flea / Chad Smith / Josh Klinghoffer



Come on to the light of day
We've got men and women that are deep at play
So I keep an eye on the shadow smile to see

What it has to say

You and I both know everything must go away what do you say

Spinning out head is on my heart
It's like a bit of light and a touch of dark
You got a sneak attack from the zodiac

But I see your bright spark

Keep the breeze and go

Go my flow and go away what do you say

You don't know my mind

You don't know my kind

Dark necessities are part of my design and

Tell the world that I am falling from the sky

Dark necessities are part of my design

Stumble down through the parking lot
I've got no time for the after thought
You're like ice cream for an astronaut well that's me looking for we

Turn the corner and find a world that's your command

Playing the hand

You don't know my mind

You don't know my kind

Dark necessities are part of my design and

Tell the world that I am falling from the sky

Dark necessities are part of my design

Do you want this love of mine
The darkness helps to sort the shine

Do you want it do you want it now

Do you want it all the time

But darkness helps us all to shine

Do you want it do you want it now

Make it work like a paperback
With the track record of a maniac

So I move it in and we unpack it's the same as yesterday

Anyway we roll everything must go away what do you say

You don't know my mind

You don't know my kind

Dark necessities are part of my design and

Tell the world that I am falling from the sky

Dark necessities are part of my design
