My old drummer Josh gettin' married same month as the new one   Scared me just a bit, but it was no surprise   Found and lost his hand on a woman heart   Now he doin' time without no pardon   Huddle in men, they're dropping like flies!   Oh, I mean rice      A velvet covered brick will knock you down, just the same   A velvet covered brick will lay you out      In a sense, I'm innocent   But under my tongue a perfume scent just turned me in   And turned me into salt   Well, I'm torn to pieces in the dark   With my head beatin' down my heart   Tell him, "Man, this is all your fault!"      A velvet covered brick will knock you down, just the same   A velvet covered brick will lay you out   A velvet covered brick will knock you down, just the same   A velvet covered brick will lay you out      Well, I could run   But not far enough   'Cause love's gonna' trip me if I try   It's gonna' break your heart   Or break my routine   Soft to the touch,      But a velvet covered brick will knock you down, just the same   A velvet covered brick will lay you out   A velvet covered brick will knock you down, just the same   A velvet covered brick will lay you out
