I'm a cold heartbreaker Fit ta burn and I'll rip your heart in two An I'll leave you lyin' on the bed with your ass in the air I'll be out the door before ya wake It's nuthin' new ta you 'Cause I think *we've seen that movie too
'Cause you could be mine But you're way out of line With your bitch slap rappin' And your cocaine tongue You get nuthin' done I said you could be mine
Now holidays come and then they go It's nothin' new today Collect another memory When I come home late at night Don't ask me where I've been Just count your stars I'm home again
You've gone sketchin' too many times Why don't ya give it a rest Why Must you find Another reason to cry
While you're breakin' down my back n' I been rackin' out my brain It don't matter how we make it 'Cause it always ends the same You can push it for more mileage But your flaps r' wearin' thin And I could sleep on it 'til mornin' But this nightmare never ends Don't forget to call my lawyers With ridiculous demands An you can take the pity so far But it's more than I can stand 'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older Tell me how long has it been 'Cause 5 years is forever An you haven't grown up yet
You could be mine But you're way out of line With your bitch slap rappin' And your cocaine tongue You get nuthin' done I said you could be mine You should be You could be mine
Yeah!

no memory of this

I think it's kind of a quiet response to the first part of the line?

"with your ass in the air" was an extra lyric Axl added for live performances.
These are great lyrics, by the way, especially that powerhouse, ultra-fast last verse.

These threads are making me want to post the lyrics to Catcher in the Rye.

"With your bitch slap rappin and your cocaine tongue you get nothing done" was written in the liner notes of Appetite. It was a line of much speculation and inscrutablity among my friends and I, not unlike "Coming soon...the Alexvanderpoolera"
