Stretch Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stretching out your tightness
Good enough to make you grow
We are all in favor of this motion

Stretching out your tightness
Time to open up your hole
When it rains, I let myself get wet

I have always wanted to
Give something to my brother
Proposing to expose your head
Just something that is like no other

[Chorus]
I'll stretch you out
I'll stretch you out, my friend
I'll stretch you out

[Verse 2]
The juice that flows from intuition
Is my liquid fare
We are all in favor of the open end

Three pounds of love and knowledge
Are expanding in my skull
Truth be told, we let the good times roll
I have always needed to
Receive it and believe it
And it's making and creating love
Tender titillation

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I'm a fish and I can swim all day
I can swim in so many ways
Make it up as I go along
That way it is never wrong

I'm a bird and I can fly away
I can shift in so many shapes
Make it up as I go along
That way it is never wrong
Owwwwwwww....

[Bridge]
There's a glowing up around the moon
It is showing
We want to play in the water that is flowing

[Verse 4]
Very legendary
Extra planetary fairy
Varied truths, she's making just for you
Yes I have always wanted to
Give something to the stranger
M-m-m-moving to improve the groove
A mental transformation

[Chorus]

The worldwide success of the band’s previous album,

(1991), caused guitarist to become uncomfortable with their status, eventually quitting mid-tour in 1992.

One Hot Minute was the only album that guitarist

recorded with the band. His presence altered the Red Hot Chili Peppers' sound considerably. It contains fewer sexual themes than previous records and explores darker subject matters, such as drug use, depression, anguish, and grief. It also re-integrated use of heavy metal guitar riffs.

Vocalist

who had resumed addictions to cocaine and heroin in 1994 after being sober for more than five years, approached his lyricism with a reflective outlook on drugs and their harsh effects.

One Hot Minute was a commercial disappointment despite producing three hit singles and reaching number four on the Billboard 200 chart. It sold less than half as many copies as

and received much less critical acclaim. Navarro was ultimately fired from the band in 1998 due to creative differences.
