To finger paint is not a sin
I put my middle finger in
Your monthly blood is what I win
I'm in your house now let me spin
Python power straight from Monty
Celluloid loves got a John Frusciante
Spread your head and spread the blanket
She's too free and I'm the patient
Black and white a red and blue
Things that look good on you
And if I scream don't let me go
A purple stain - I know
Knock on wood we all stay good
'Cause we all live in Hollywood
With Dracula and Darla Hood
Unspoken words were understood
Up to my ass in alligators
Let's get it on with the alligator haters
Did what you did - did what you said
What's the point yo what's the spread
Black and white a red and blue
Things that look good on you
And if I scream don't let me go
A purple stain - I know
And if I call for you to stay
Come hit the funk on your way
It's way out there but I don't care
'Cause this is where - I go
Knock on wood we all stay good
'Cause we all live in Hollywood
With Dracula and Darla Hood
Unspoken words were understood
It's way out there but I don't care
'Cause this is what I want to wear
Knock on wood we all stay good
'Cause we all live in Hollywood
To finger paint is not a sin
I put my middle finger in
Your monthly blood is what I win
I'm in your house now let me spin
Feather light but you can't move this
Farley is an angel and I can prove this
Purple is a stain upon my pillow
Let's Sleep weeping willow
Black and white a red and blue
Things that look good on you
And if I scream don't let me go
A purple stain - I know
And if I call for you to stay
Come hit the funk on your way
It's way out there but I don't care
'Cause this is where - I go
Knock on wood we all stay good
'Cause we all live in Hollywood
With Dracula and Darla Hood
Unspoken words were understood
It's way out there but I don't care
'Cause this is what I want to wear
Knock on wood we all stay good
'Cause we all live in Hollywood

The lyrics PURPLE STAIN of RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS is also present in the album Californication (1999)
I Red Hot Chili Peppers sono una band rock statunitense formatasi a Los Angeles nel 1982. Il gruppo è noto per il suo sound caratterizzato da un mix di funk, punk rock e hard rock, con influenze psichedeliche e latine. La formazione originale comprendeva Anthony Kiedis (voce), Flea (basso), Hillel Slovak (chitarra) e Jack Irons (batteria). Dopo la tragica scomparsa di Slovak nel 1988, John Frusciante si unì alla band come chitarrista, contribuendo a definire il sound distintivo dei Red Hot Chili Peppers. Nel corso degli anni, la formazione ha subito diverse variazioni, ma Kiedis e Flea sono rimasti i pilastri del gruppo. Tra gli album più importanti figurano *Blood Sugar Sex Magik* (1991), *Californication* (1999) e *Stadium Arcadium* (2006). I Red Hot Chili Peppers hanno venduto oltre 80 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, vincendo sei Grammy Awards. Tra i brani più famosi ci sono "Under the Bridge", "Scar Tissue", "Californication" e "Dani California".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
