"Soul to Squeeze" is a song by the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers that was originally recorded during the production of their fifth studio album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991). Although it was not featured on the record—and compiled as a b-side to "Give It Away" and "Under the Bridge"—"Soul to Squeeze" was later released as a single in 1993 to coincide with its inclusion on the Coneheads film soundtrack. The song became an unexpected success when it peaked at number one on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks as well as number twenty-two on the Hot 100.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1] I got a bad disease Up from my brain is where I bleed Insanity it seems Has got me by my soul to squeeze Well all the love from me With all the dying trees I scream The angels in my dreams, yeah Have turned to demons of greed, that's mean [Chorus] Where I go, I just don't know I got to, got to, gotta take it slow When I find my peace of mind I'm gonna give you some of my good time [Verse 2] Today love smiled on me It took away my pain, said please I’ll let your ride be free You gotta let it be, oh yeah [Chorus] Where I go, I just don't know I got to, gotta, gotta take it slow When I find my peace of mind I'm gonna give you some of my good time [Guitar Solo] [Interlude] Yeah! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Oh so polite indeed Well I got everything I need Oh make my days a breeze And take away my self destruction It's bitter baby and it's very sweet A holy rollercoaster but I'm on my feet Take me to the river, let me on your shore Well, I'll be coming back baby, I'll be coming back for more [Bridge] Doo doo doo doo dingle zing a dong bone Ba-di ba-da ba-zumba crunga cong gone bad I could not forget but I will not endeavour Simple pleasures are much better, but I won’t regret it, never [Chorus] Where I go, I just don't know I got to, got to, gotta take it slow When I find my peace of mind I'm gonna give you some of my good time [Outro] Where I go I just don't know I might end up somewhere in Mexico When I find my peace of mind I'm gonna keep it for the end of time
