Flys

you see clearly in their heaaaads
they make you wish
that you were deaaad
but you will come to show them allllll
the sacred game of basketbaalllll


they'll be sorry when you're goooone
they'll be sorry when you're goooone


acting out just like they're fools
they must be teaching that in schools


they'll be sorry when you're gooone
they'll be sorry when you're gooone


watch you roll your eyes aroooound

Groove is where you find it, takes time to realize it
Move in to the middle of your mind
No one can deny it, the truth is where you find it
Move in to the middle of your mind

Are we just losing time
The earth is getting old
Are we just fusing time
Orbit round the world
In the middle of our minds

Why are you denying, the truth is underlying
Move in to the middle of your mind
Space is still colliding, face what you've been hiding
Groove is in the middle of your mind

Are we just losing time
The earth is getting old
Are we just fusing time
Orbit round the world
In the middle of our minds

Can I ask you a personal question?

Are we just losing time
The earth is getting old
Are we just fusing time
Orbit round the world
In the middle of our minds

Groove is where you find it, takes time to realize it
Move in to the middle of your mind
Space is still colliding, face what you've been hiding
Groove is in the middle of your mind, of your mind

you see clearly in their heaaaads
they make you wish

This day, special day
You're beautiful
And this day, special place
Your diary's locked
And this face, the freshest face
In the world

And oh, don't dignify their hatred
With any kind of response at all
And oh, don't dignify their cruelty
Girls are the cruelest of them all

This day, a special day
Your high school prom
And this time, you won the game
You weren't even trying hard

And oh, don't dignify their hatred
With any kind of response at all
And oh, don't dignify their cruelty
Girls are the cruelest of them all

Girls are the cruelest of them all
You're beautiful

And oh, don't dignify their hatred
With any kind of response at all
And oh, don't dignify their jealously
'Cause you've got it all

Girls are the cruelest of them all
The cruelest of them all
Girls are the cruelest of them all
The cruelest them all

You're beautiful

Okay, this song is called 'The family'
And we got a close family of people we're working with
And we appreciate them
And this is a really appropriate number

Tell it to the family
You see it growing day by day
You know you sell it to the people
Making music our own way
You know you see it in our faces
See us out at the coolest places
Tell it to the family, yeah

Going to a movie
Tickets cost you two dollar fifty cent
Take your favorite girlfriend
You know she's of a Mexican descent

Tell it to the family
I see it growing day by day
You know you sell it to the people
Making music our own way
You know you see it in our faces
I see us out at the coolest places
Tell it to the family, yeah

Catchin' waves at sunset
The water there is cool but awfully dirty
Kickin' back at coffee
The waitress there is rude but really pretty

Tell it to the family
I see it growing day by day
You know you sell it to the people
Making music our own way
You know you see it in our faces
I see us out at the coolest places
Tell it to the family, yeah

Break it down

Tell it to the family
I see it growing day by day
You know you sell it to the people
Making music our own way
You know you see it in our faces
I see us out at the coolest places
Tell it to the family, yeah

Tell it to the family
I see it growing day by day
You know you sell it to the people
Making music our own way
You know you see it in our faces
I see us out at the coolest places
Tell it to the family, yeah

In those days I rode on the back of you
Stealin' what I can
In no time I found out the answer was
Doin' what you can

And the crew you ran around with
Really, really made the band
And the road you set me on
Made me what I am

Feed superfly
Come on come on
Superfly
He's just that kind of guy

In those days I rode on the back of you
Kissin' all that ass
In no time I found out that the answer was
Ass, gas or grass

And the crew you ran around with
Well it really made the band
And the road you set me on
Made me what I am, come on

Superfly, superfly
Superfly, superfly
Yeah, go crazy

God bless you all
We love you
Martin, Martin
Superfly

This one is for the ladies

I'm taken by your smile
Such a sweet surprise
And me taken by your style
Make it worth your while
What else can I say

Do what you do
When you do, what you do
Whoa, do what you do
When you do, what you do, whoa, oh

Yeah you know um, I travel around a lot
I've seen a few things, I've spent some time with the ladies
Well time and time I realize, hey when the lights are off
And I'm by myself, I'm a lonely man

And me sitttin' in the park late after dark
Superwoman, you, taken by my style
Make it worth your while
What else can I say

Do what you do
When you do, what you do
Whoa, do what you do
When you do, what you do, whoa, you

You really know how to set the mood
And you really get inside the groove
Cool cat, tipping on the town, you're a cool cat

Oh, you're cruising
Riding along with the sweet key
And I sail with the beat of my heart
Ya feeling, ya feeling, ya feeling, feeling

When you do the things you do

Hey what's your favorite song
Maybe we could hum along

Brings me down, makes me wanna cry, oh yeah
When I forget where I come from
And I just lose my mind, oh yeah

I know what you want
Freedom makes you strong
I may not be right

Brings me down, makes me wanna cry, oh yeah
When I forget where I come from
And I just lose my mind, oh yeah
But some things never change, oh yeah

I know what you want

C'mon, c'mon take a ride down the back street

Holdin' with the flys don't ya know we go relaxin'
And dancin', checkin' out the chickens while we passin'
Stay collapsin' speak cuz why we go around blastin'

We go backin' to an' all my C's I'm the boy with the new shit
Fuck around with DJ Rhyme and breeze
You begin to sieze the reality, I know what you want
And I'm manifest destiny

Brings me down, makes me wanna cry, oh yeah
When I forget where I come from
And I just lose my mind, oh yeah
But some things never change, oh yeah
