It takes a crane to build
a crane
It takes two
floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no
end to what I'm saying
It takes a
thought to make a word
And it takes some
words to make an action
And it takes some
work to make it
work It takes some
good to make it
hurt It takes some
bad for satisfaction
Ala la la la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la la la la life gose
full circle
Ala la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la la

It takes a
night to make it down
takes a day
to make you yawn brother
And it takes some
old to make you
young It takes some
cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have
the other
And it takes no
time to fall in love
But it takes you years
to know what love is
And it takes some
fears to make you
turst It takes those
tears to make it rust
It takes the dust
to have it polished
Ala la la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la la la life gose
full circle
Ala la la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la
It is Ii is so
It takes some silence to make
sound
And it takes a loss
before you found it
And it takes a road to go no
where It takes a toll
to make you care
It takes a hole
to make a mountain
Ala la la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la la la life gose
full circle
Ala la la la la la life is
wonderful
Ala la la la la la life is
meaningful
Ala la la la la la la la life
is wonderful
Ala la la la la la
It is so
wonderful
It is so me
It is so wonderful
It is so me
It is wonderful
It is me

I've been all around the world
I've been a new sensation
But it doesn't really matter
In this generation
The sophomore slump
is an uphill battle
And someone said that
ain't my scene
'Cause they need a new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the record label puts me
on the shelf up in the freezer
Got to find another way
to live the life of leisure
So I drop my top
Mix and I mingle
Is everybody ready for
my single and it goes
la la la la la
Now listen closely
to the verse I lay
la la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
la la la la la
The wonderful thing it does
Because because
I am the wizard of oohs
and ahs and fa la las
Yeah the mister A to Z
They say I'm all about
the wordplay
When it's time to get
ill I got your remedy
For those who don't remember me
Well let me
introduce you to my style
I try to keep a jumble
And the lyrics never mumble
When the music's makin'
people tongue tied
You want a new song
Like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
For the people write me off
like I'm a one hit wonder
Gota find another way
to keep from goin' under
Pull out the stops
Got your attention
I guess it's time again for
me to mention
The wordplay
la la la la la
Now listen closely
to the verse I lay
la la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
la la la la la
The wonderful thing it does
Because because
I am the wizard of oohs
and ahs and fa la las
Yeah the mister A to Z
They say I'm all about
the wordplay
I built a bridge across
the stream my consciousness
It always seems to be a flowin'
But I don't know which
way my brain is goin'
Oh the ryhmin' and the timin'
Keeps the melodies inside me
And they're comin'
Till I'm running out of air
Are you prepared to take a dive
into the deep end of my head
Are you listening to a
single word I've said
la la la la la
Now listen closely
to the verse I lay
la la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
la la la la la
The wonderful thing it does
Because because
I am the wizard of oohs
and ahs and fa la las
Yeah the mister A to Z
They say I'm all about
the wordplay
la la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
la la la la la
It's all about the wordplay
la la la la la
The wonderful thing it does
Because because
I am the wizard of oohs
and ahs and fa la las
Yeah the mister A to Z
They say I'm all about
the wordplay

Well let the geek in the pink
take a stab at it If you like the
way I'm thinkin' baby wink at it
I may be skinny at times but
I'm fat fulla rhymes Pass me
the mic and I'm a grab at it
Well isn't it delicious

hittin' Sometimes you gotta fit
in to get in But don't ever quit
cause soon I'm gonna let you
in but see I don't care what
you might think about me
You can vibe without me if you want
I could be the one to take you home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't
be a let down But sugar don't
forget what you already know
That I could be the one to turn you out
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge me by the color
confuse it for another
You might regret what you let
slip away Like the geek in the pink
I'm the geek in the pink yeah
Well this relationship fodder
don't mean to bother nobody
But Cupid's automatic musta
fired multiple shots at her
Because she fall in love too
often that's what the matter
At least I talk about it keep
a pattern of flattery and
She was starin' through the
doorframe Eyeing me down like
already a bad boyfriend
Well she can get her toys outta
the drawer then
Cause I ain't comin' home
I don't need that attention see
I don't care what she might
think about me She'll get
by without me if she want
I could be the one to take her home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't
be the let down But sugar don't
forget what you already know
I could be the one to turn you on
You could be the talk across the
town Don't judge it by the
color confuse it for another
You might regret what you let
slip away Hey baby look at me go
From zero to hero You better
take it from a geek like me
Well I can save you from unoriginal
dum dums Who wouldn't care
if you com plete him or not
So what I've got a short attention
span A coke in my hand Because
I'd rather have the afternoon
relax and understand
My hip hop and flip flops
it don't stop with the light rock
A shot to mock you kinda puts me
in the tight spot
The hype is nothing more than
hoo ha so I'm Developing a
language and I'm callin' it my own
So take a peek into the speaker
and you'll see what I mean
That on the other side the grass
is greener I don't care
what you might think about me
You'll get by without me if you want
I could be the one to take you home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't
be the let down But sugar don't
forget what you already know
I could be the one to turn you on
We could be the talk across the
town Don't judge it by the
color confuse it for another
You might regret what you let
slip away Like geek in the pink
I'm the geek in the pink yeah
Geek is the color for fall
I'm the geek in the pink
So I'm the geek yo in the pink yo
Geek is the color for fall

Did you get my
message the one I left
While I was trying to convince
everything that I meant in a
minute or less
when I called to confess
And make all of my stresses
go bye bye
Did you get my message
you didn't I guess
cause if you did you would have
called me with your sweet intent
And we could give it a rest
'stead of beating our breast
And Making all of these
pressures go sky high
Do you ever wonder what happens
to the words that we send
Do they bend do they break
from the flight that they take
And come back together again
with a whole new meaning
In a brand new sense
completely unrelated to the
one I sent
Did you get my message
oooh oooh ooooh
Did you get my message
Did you get my message yeah
oooh oooh ooooh hooo
Uh oh where did it go
must have bypassed your
phone And flown
right outta the window
oh well how can I tell
Should I call the operator
maybe she know the info
'Bout whether or not
my message you got was too
much or a lot to reply
why not try this for a fact
Should you ever call back
I'd relax and be relieved
of my panic attack
Ahh hooo oooh
Did you get my message
oooh oooh ooooh
Did you get my message
Did you get my message yeah
oooh oooh ooooh hooo

Did you get my message
the one I left
While I was trying to convince
everything that I meant
Now the moment has passed
Not much sand in the glass
and I'm standing to lose my mind
Do you ever wonder what happens
to the words that we send
Do they bend do they break
from the flight that they take
And come back together again
with a whole new meaning
To the matter of our
love's defense
at least be sympathetic to the
time I spent
Did you get my message
oooh oooh ooooh
Did you get my message
Did you get my message yeah
oooh oooh ooooh hooo
Did you get my message
Did you get my message

Did you get my message love
That I
want to reconnect with you
Did you get my message

Hey Mr Curiosity
Is it true what they've been
saying about you
Are you killing me
You took care of the cat already
And for those who think it's heavy
Is it the truth
Or is it only gossip
call it mystery or anything
Just as long as you'd call me
I sent the message on
Did you get it when I left it
See this catastrophic event
It wasn't meant to maen no harm
But to think there's nothing wrong
is a problem
I'm looking for love this time
sounding hopeful but making me cry
Love is a mystery
Mr curious
Come back to me
Mr waiting ever petient can't you see
That I'm the same the way you left me
In a hurry to spell check me
And I'm underlined already
in envy green
And pencil red
And I've forgotten what you've said
Will you stop working for the dead
and return
Mr curious
well I need some inspiration
It's my birthday
and I cannot find no cause
for celebration
The scenario is grave
but I'll be braver when you save me
From this situation
laden with hearsay
I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's
making me cry
And love is a mystery
Mr curiosity
Be Mr please
Do come and find me

I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's
making me cry
trying not to ask why
Cause love is a mystery
Mr curiosity
Be Mr please
Do come and find me
Love is blinding
when the timing's never right
Oh who am I
to beg for difference
Finding love in just an instant
But I don't mind
at least I've tried
Well I tried I tried

Take off, both your, shoes and clothes, I’ll follow.
Undo, corkscrew, drink from the top of a broken bottle.
Lately we’re running out of time, aren’t we?

Smoking, often, and calling out our guilty pleasures,
Let’s keep, talking, anything to stop clockwatching.
Lately we’re running out of time, aren’t we?
Crazy for running all the time, m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let’s forget we’re running out of time.

I’m off like an airplane,
I’m licking your postage stamp again.
I’m using my right brain and I’m praying that we don’t crash.
Who knew I’d cum so fast.
Well so what if a two pump chump can’t last.

But I made it to three, and I foreclose a five minute, fantasy.
On a short-lived flight, making love on economy
No jumping, conclusions,
I don’t think there’s no solution,
Let’s get, backwards,
And forget our restless destination.

Let’s live in this moment just this time, could we?
Just take one moment of our time m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let’s forget we running out of time.

I’m off like an airplane,
I’m catching my second wind again.
I’m using my left brain
And I’m righting all my wrongs.
I’m yearning to turn you on.

I’ve been working on getting you off, so get on board.
Well how can I guess by the subject of the best predicate that’s left unsaid when the matter is too delicate.
My loneliness is evident.

And its you,
You’re running through my mind and it makes me c-c-crazy cra-cra-crazy.

La la la
La la la la la
La la la (ooooooo, so amazing)
La la la la la la
La la la
Laaaa oh oh
Laaaaaa lo oh oh oh

Lady, dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper,
Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.

Mystery the moon
A hole in the sky
A supernatural nightlight
So full but often right
A pair of eyes a closin' one
A chosen child of golden sun
A marble dog that chases cars
To farthest reaches of the beach and far beyond into the swimming sea of stars

A cosmic fish they love to kiss
They're giving birth to constellation
No riffs and oh no reservation
If they should fall you get a wish or dedication
May I suggest you get the best
For nothing less than you and I
Let's take a chance as this romance is rising over before we lose the lighting
Oh bella bella please
Bella you beautiful luna
Oh bella do what you do
Do do do do do

You are an illuminating anchor
Of leagues to infinite number
Crashing waves and breaking thunder
Tiding the ebb and flows of hunger
You're dancing naked there for me
You expose all memory
You make the most of boundary
You're the ghost of royalty imposing love
You are the queen and king combining everything
Intertwining like a ring around the finger of a girl
I'm just a singer, you're the world
All I can bring ya
Is the language of a lover
Bella luna, my beautiful
How you swoon me like no other

May I suggest you get the best
Of your wish may I insist
That no contest for little you or smaller I
A larger chance happened, all them they lie
On the rise, on the brink of our lives
Bella please
Bella you beautiful luna
Oh bella do what you do
Bella luna, my beautiful
How you swoon me like no other, oh oh oh

Drain the veins in my head
Clean out the reds in my eyes
to get by security lines
Dear x ray machine
Pretend you don't
know me so well
I won't tell if you lied
Cry cause your droughts been
brought up
Drinking cause you're looking so good
in your starbucks cup I complain
for the company that I keep
The windows for
sleeping rearrange
When I'm nobody
Well who's laughing now
I'm leaving your town again
And I'm over the ground
that you've been spinning
And I'm up in the air
so baby hell yeah
Well honey I can
see your house from here
If the plane goes down damn
Well I'll remember
where the love was found
If the plane goes down damn
Damn I should be so lucky
Even only 24 hours
under your touch
You know I need you so much
I can not wait to call you
And tell you that
I landed somewhere
And hand you a square
of the airport
And walk you through
the maze of the map
That I'm gazing at
Gracefully unnamed
and feeling guilty for the luck
And the look that you gave me
You make me somebody
Oh nobody knows me
Not even me can see it
yet I bet I'm
I'm leaving your town again
And I'm over the ground
that you've been spinning
And I'm up in the air
so baby hell yeah
Oh honey I can
see your house from here
If the plane goes down damn
I'll remember
where the love was found
If the plane goes down damn

You keep me high minded
You keep me high

Flax seeds
well they tear me open and supposedly
you can crawl right through me
Taste these teeth please
And undress me
from the sweaters better hurry
Cause I'm keeping
upward bound now
Oh maybe I'll build my
house on your cloud
Here I'm tumbling for you
Stumbling through the work
that I have to do
Don't mean to harm you
By leaving your town again
But I'm over the quilt
that you've been spinning
And I'm up in the air
said baby hell yeah
Oh honey I can
see your house from here
If the plane goes down damn
I'll remember
where the love was found
If the plane goes down damn
I'll remember
where the love was found
If the plane goes down damn
I'll remember
where the love was found
If the plane goes down damn
Damn Damn

Damn

You keep me high

You keep me high minded
You keep me high

You keep me high minded

What’s the worst thing that could happen?
We could change our minds.
That seems to be the hottest topic at this time.
We are sitting around in the meditation, dragging, chasing,
Wonderin?whose holdin?whose got the will to draw the line.

I know you’ve got something burning up inside,
It’s so unhealthy but so good for me, oh!
Said if I didn’t know, and if I didn’t know, well if I didn’t know that you loved me would you tell me?
Well God only knows our contradiction’s to quitting, is a hate to love relationship thing.
A fire under you is so fulfilling,
I fear there’s nothing more.

I’m giving, giving you, the choke hold,
My flirting with disaster is mighty loved.
Ugggh you, you’re so bold,
My wanting to kiss you still is not enough.
I’m getting over, all the comments.
I’m feeling statements made by people are nonsense.
I’m getting stronger, by the minute.
And once I slip into position I’ll swing you and turn you all around.

You are the sweetest thing I’ve found since whenever,
You’re the only way my time is measured.
You might be the silent type,
But your appetizing louder now.
It’s crazy how you’re killing me.
Woo, you’re killing me, but I like your

Red top and matching bottoms.
You know the ones, the ones you got on,
Pull them over your skinny self
But don’t cover your tattoo.
Woo, cause I like to look at you, yeah,
I love that smell on you,
And I got your special place against this face for tasting too.

And I like it natural,
No need for chemicals.
Foggin?up my senses
You’re making me sensless
You’re calling it sexual.

And you’re going to get yours, my lady.
Might even be today.
And it ain’t no thing because I’ll be rolling right along with you-woo-woo.

You are the sweetest thing I’ve found since whenever.
You’re the only way my time is measured.
You might be the silent type.
But you’re appetizing louder now.
It’s crazy how you’re killing me.
And give us both a break.
And to give us back a taste when the way things were before they made the laws,
And to give us both a chance,
But it won’t be the last romance cause when the weekend starts the guilty party’s on.

[Scatting]

BREAKDOWN!!
Weekend party’s over,
Don’t stop, let’s get closer.
Friday, got cold shoulder,
Monday, got a new composure.

Weekend party’s over,
Don’t stop, let’s get lower.
I won’t blow your cover,
Opportunistic lover.

Weekend party’s over,
Don’t stop, let’s get closer.
Friday’s mediocre,
Monday, I’m self-exposed now.

Weekend party’s over,
Don’t stop, let’s suppose-ah
I won’t blow your cover
Opportunistic lover.

I hear she's kickin' ass across the board and rock two hundred thousand higher scorer
Just in time to save the world of being taken over
She's a warrior
I couldn't play again because the game it never ended, never even landed on the cannon
And never let me in to spend my quarter
There's no love for me, no more

Say it isn't so
How she easily come, how she easy go
Please don't tell her that I've been meaning to miss her
Because I don't

She was the girl with the broadest shoulders
But she would die before I crawled over them
She is taller than I am
She knew I wouldn't mind the view there
Or the altitude with a mouth full of air
She let me down, the doubt came out until the now became later

Say that it isn't so
How she easily come, how she easy go
Please don't tell her that I've been meaning to miss her
Because I don't, not for her
It's not that I'm mad
To forgive, forget
What I say

That I'm crazy like the rest of us
And I'm crazier when I'm next to her

So why after the all of everything that came and went
I care enough to still be singing of the bitter end and broken eras
I told you I don't
But I am only trying to be the best with my attempt to cure
The rest assured I'll aim to ease the plural hurts of the words
"reverse psychology"
That's easier said
Easier than done

Please don't dare to tell her what I've become
Please don't mention all the attention I have drawn
Please don't bother cause she'll feel guilty when I'm gone (fuck you)

Because I'm crazy like the rest of us
But I'm crazier when I'm next to her
And it's amazing how she's so self-assured
But I know she'd hate me if she knew my words
Do I hurt anymore
Do I hurt? Well,
I don't
I don't
I don't

Well I heard that it might be raining bed sheets and lover’s words
Let’s throw out the hotel comforter and hang the ’do not disturb’
Sign me up for the storm
I’ll wear my suit for the shower
Cause I’ll have you to keep me warm in the coldest hour

And when the darkness falls under your hair, there I’ll be
And crazy is the forecast all week

Well every kiss, every hug is so light on that touch, delicate like a snowflake
Well I can taste, I can taste, I can taste, I can taste you all over my face
And everyone might find it foolish to not be counting on the sun
But your mouth is my umbrella now
Because I’m holding your tongue

And when the darkness falls under your hair, there I’ll be
And crazy is the forecast all week

There’s a good chance in hell
Like cats and dogs we’ll be flying
And I’m no weatherman
But you are lightning, striking

Here comes that sun
Want rain
All at once
How it sing

In the midst of the morning pull up a blanket of a cloud
And await for the warning of another come down
Because the water is healthy for the roses in your cheeks
My well holds plenty for penny wishin’ in your deep end
And when the lights go out, no doubt, with you I’ll be

And crazy is the forecast all week

And if them rains should fall for sure with you I’ll be
Ah because crazy is the forecast all week long
Crazy is the forecast

Well you’re magic he said
But don’t let it all go to your head
Well I bet if you all had it all figured out
Then you’d never get out of bed
No doubt
All the thing’s that I’ve read what he wrote me
Is now sounding like the man I was hoping
To be
Keep on keeping it real
Cause it keeps getting easier indeed
He’s the reason that I’m laughing
Even if there’s no one else
He said, you’ve got to love yourself

You say, you shouldn’t mumble when you speak
But keep your tongue up in your cheek
And if you stumble on to
You better remember that it’s humble that you seek
You got all the skill you need,
Individuality
You got something
Call it gumption
Call it anything you want
Because when you play the fool now
You’re only fooling everyone else
You’re learning to love yourself

Yes you are

There’s no price to pay
When you give and what you take,
That’s why it’s easy to thank you
You...

Let’s say take a break from the day
And get back to the old garage
Because life’s too short anyway
But at least it’s better then average
As long as you got me
And I got you
You know we’ll got a lot to go around
I’ll be your friend
Your other brother
Another love to come and comfort you
And I’ll keep reminding
If it’s the only thing I ever do
I will always love
I will always love you
Yes you
I will always, always, always, always love
I will always, always love
I will always, always love, love

Climb up over the top.
Survey the state of the soul.
You’ve got to find out for yourself whether or not you’re truly trying.
Why not give it a shot?
Shake it. Take control and inevitably wind up
Find out for yourself all the strengths you have inside of you.

I try to picture a girl
Through a looking glass
See her as a carbon atom
See her eyes and stare back at them
See that girl
As her own new world
Though a home is on the surface,
she is still a universe

Glory god, oh God is peeking though the blinds
Are we all here standing naked
Taking guesses at the actual date and time
Oh my, justifying reasons why
Is an absolutely insane resolution to live by

Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
live righteously

Try to picture the man
To always have an open hand
See him as a giving tree
See him as matter
Matter fact he's not a beast
No not the devil either
Always a good deed doer
And it's laughter that we're makin after all

The call of the wild is still an ordination why
And the order of the permeates
All our politics are too late
Oh my, the congregation in my mind
It this assembly singing gratitude
Practicing their livin for you

Just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
Nothing is ever as it seems
This life is but a dream

Hello, tell me you know
Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
And it would be such a beautiful moment
To see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now

And baby that’s a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Cause you and I
Why, we go carrying on for hours, on and
We get along much better
Than you and your boyfriend

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

Well how long, can I go on like this,
Wishing to kiss you,
Before I rightly explode?
This double life I lead isn’t healthy for me
In fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all

Baby there’s a lot that I miss
In case I’m wrong

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

If I should be so bold
I’d ask you to hold my heart in your hand
Tell you from the start how I’ve longed to be your man
But I never said I would
I guess I’m gonna miss my chance again

All I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
I think it might kill me

And all I really want from you is to feel me
It’s a feeling inside that keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
It might kill me

You’ve got the best of both worlds
You’re the kind of girl
who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you’re needy,
Humble but you’re greedy
Based on your body language,
your shouted cursive I’ve been reading
You’re style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
that this is just what happiness is

Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
It’s like picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts
when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives
And don′′t mind my nerve you can call it fiction
‘Cause I like being submerged
in your contradictions dear
‘Cause here we are, here we are

Although you were biased
I love your advice
Your comebacks they’re quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There’s no shame in being crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words that paraphrasing
this relationship we’re staging

And it’s a beautiful mess, yes it is
It’s like, we are picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts
when the kind of words you say
Kind of turn themselves into blades
And the kind and courteous is a life I’ve heard
But it’s nice to say that we played in the dirt
Cause here, here we are, Here we are
Here we are x7

We′′re still here

And what a beautiful mess this is
It’s like taking a guess
when the only answer is yes

And through timeless words
in priceless pictures
We’ll fly like birds not of this earth
And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that’s no concern
when we’re wounded together
And we tore our dresses
and stained our shirts
But it’s nice today,
oh the wait was so worth it
