Experience - David Lee Roth

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

Ah

I learned half of what I know from the worst teacher goin'

Experience

That school’s too slow an' I know folks

Smart ones from the city

Who gone and made a life’s work

A decade later, they still doin' shitty

Experience

That’s experience for ya

Moves kinda slow

You get off the bus

The same guy that got on twenty years ago

And as I feel it

Is it art or imitating?

'Cause if it’s art

All my life’s been fingerpainting

Had my best luck though with a big easel

I’d rather be an art project, babe

Than just weasel out with wearin' one

And come to suspect the whole experience

(Experience)

(Experience)

Experience, I think I understand

Is it like doin' ninety

Her top’s down and wind’s in your beer can

That single moment on a bungee jump

You’re down goin' down, you’re comin' up now

I think I felt that before

It was, it was kind of an experience

(Experience)

One shining moment lost in time

The one with the showroom shine

Well, I’m sorry girl, yes, I’m sorry boy

But I feel that way all the time, ooh

Till I finally made it

Life was kinda hit or miss

But after I made it

Life was, «Take a hit of this.»

And I’d love to talk philosophy

But I’ve gotta take a piss

Man, that philosophy runs right through ya

Take it from me baby

I’ve got experience

(Experience)

(Experience)

All right

(Experience)

Experience, do I understand

Is it like doin' a hundred

Her top’s down

The wind’s in your beer can

That single moment, babe, on a bungee jump

You’re down goin' down, you’re comin' up now

Gee, don’t look down

Ooh

That special moment lost in time

The one with the showroom shine

Well, I’m sorry babe, yes, I’m sorry babe

But I feel that way all the time, ooh

(Da da, da, da, da, da, da da)

(Da da, da, da, da, da, da da)
