Strip My Mind by Red Hot Chili Peppers

This song comes from the Jupiter disc of the Stadium Arcadium double album. The main reason I like this song was the backing vocals applied (the one singing "ohhhh", "yeahhhh") by, according to information from the internet, RCHP guitarist John Frusciante. I would have bet that it was Zakk Wylde singing that parts. But then again I could be wrong and I wouldn't want to lose money over a silly bet.

Arthur J. did,
indicate
d
The boulevard will never be
So full of life and love again - hey
(Aw, say goodbye to your boots, man)

Hot as Hades,
early eighties

Sing another song
Make me feel like I'm in love again - hey
(You gotta lose to win)

Oh yeah
Oh
Please don't strip my mind
Leave something behind
Please don't strip my mind


All in favor sign the waiver
Bloody Carolina
Won't you take another look inside - hey
(Aw, it will make me cry)

Operator, co-creator
Come on radiator
Won't you blow another top and sing - hey
(Ah, you only get what you bring)

Oh yeah
Oh
Please don't strip my mind
Leave something behind
Please don't strip my mind

El Dorado won the lotto
All the cash and not a clue
But now you know what I've been through - hey

Oh yeah
Oh
Please don't strip my mind
Leave something behind
Please don't strip my mind
Leave something behind
