Prince [보컬,키보드,드럼,기타,베이스 기타]

Yeah, sarge, we just received a call
We got a disturbance on Galpin

Alright, go on'n check it out.

Really? Oh geez.

Well her name is Zannalee
I like what she do to me
Her name is Zannalee
I like what she do to me
She got a sister named Fendi
And they like to do me double team

To get 'em in the mood
I give 'em some cherry wine
To get 'em in the mood
I give 'em some cherry wine
Then we play some pool
And they watch me bank the six and the nine

Watch me bank it baby
(Woo)
Yeah, sarge, we're outside the house now
I can see 'em through the window there
(Hey there)
What's it look like?

All I can see ... oh geez, look at that
ah ah

What's going on?

Uh, nothing, sarge, 10-4

If you wanna headline
You gotta be all you can be
Well if you wanna headline
You gotta be all you can be
Cuz you got a strong act to follow
And her name is Zannalee

See you tomorrow, big ass

I've held your hand so many times
But I still get the feeling I felt the very first time
I've kissed your lips and laid with U
And I cherish every moment we spend in each other's arms

I guess my eyes can only see as far as U
I only want 2 be with U

We've come so far in so little time
That sometimes I wonder if this is meant 2 be
Sometimes U are so very kind
That the nights U're not with me I'm scared that U're gonna leave

I guess U could say that I'm just being a fool
But I only want 2 be with U

Whoa, I guess U could say that I'm, I'm just being a fool
But I always, always want 2 be with U

There's some talk going 'round town
That U really don't give a damn
They say U really put me down
When I'm doing the best I can
I gave U all of my love
I even gave U my body
Tell me baby, ain't that enough?
What more do U want me 2 do?

I play the fool when we're 2gether
But I cry when we're apart, yeah
I couldn't do U no better
Don't break what's left of my broken heart, baby

CHORUS:
Why U wanna treat me so bad when U know I love U?
How can U do this 2 me when U know I care?
Why U wanna treat me so bad when U know I love U?

U know I try so hard
2 keep U satisfied
Sometimes U play the part
Sometimes U're so full of pride
And if it's still good 2 ya
Why U wanna treat me so bad?
U used 2 love it when I'd do ya
U used 2 say I was the best U'd ever had

I play the fool when we're 2gether
I give U everything I can, yeah
And if it's still good 2 ya
There's just somethin' that I can't understand

CHORUS

Big white mansion
Top of the road
Latest fashion
Happy, don't U know?
Here I am in New York, yeah
See the girl bold and fair ("Yo, Anita!") {Martin sample}
What's in your backpack 2day?
Will it take my blues away?
That's OK, "U gotta run..."
Huh, check it, I don't need U 2 have some fun
Comin' from the land of snow
I guess I'm kinda used 2 cold

But one day I'll have a big white mansion
At the top of the road
I'm gonna wear the latest fashion
I'm gonna be happy, don't U know?

I could use a new guitar
Sing a tune at Chazz' bar
Maybe meet a debutante
Be a toy, do what she want (Tell me what U wanna do?)
9 o'clock, see John K.
"But U don't rock, come another day" (When?)
Come another day
Spirit so low reachin' up 4 ground (Reachin' up 4 ground)
One day I'm gonna make it in this lonely town

Then I'll live in a big white mansion
At the top of the road
I'm gonna wear the latest fashion
Then I'll be happy, don't U know?

Hey there, what's your name? (What's your name, cutie?)
And can U tell me how 2 play the game? ("I am a winner") (Listen 2 this)
Do I really have 2 cut my hair? (No)
Now, that's a cross I could never bear (How 'bout them publishing rights?)
Sell my publishing? What a laugh! (Ha ha)
I don't know Bo, but I do know math (I do know math)
Back 2 Minneapolis, there U go
U can't find your house underneath the snow

Cuz U're livin' in a big white mansion (Oh yes)
At the top of the road
U're wearin' the latest fashion
Tryin' 2 be happy, don't U know? (Tryin' 2 be happy, happy)

Big white, big white mansion (Big white mansion)
At the top of the road
U and me wearin' Versace, Gucci (Latest fashion)
Hoochies, they all wanna do me (Happy, don't U know?)
But am I really happy?
Big white mansion
Yeah, maybe one day

("Yo, Anita!") {Martin sample}
("Yo, check out that ass!")

Oh-ooh

Wherever U go, whatever U do
Oh please, remember that I'll always be there 4 U
U don't have 2 call, U don't have 2 say
Just think about me and I'll be on my way
I don't have 2 worry, I'm sure U'll be fine
Cuz if U stay happy, then what's your's is mine
Wherever U go, whatever U do
Remember that I'll always be there 4 U
(Oh Baby)

Wherever U R, think of your dreams
Oh please, remember life ain't always what it seems
4 each rainy day (rainy day)
That comes your way
The sun will come shining and U'll be okay
Keep on smiling - every girl and boy
Remember when U were children U had toys
Wherever U R, think of your dreams
Remember that dreams become the life U lead

Whatever U play, it's okay 2 lose
Ooh sometimes (sometimes...)
As long as U learn from every game U choose
If one thing is sure, U'll always endure
If U try your best at everything U do
Say what U mean and mean what U say
The price 4 a broken heart - it‘s 2 much 2 pay
And nothing is worth it, if U don't have 2 try
The higher the stakes - the higher the sky

Wherever U go, whatever U do
Please remember
Remember that I'll always be there 4 U

When you were mine
I gave you all of my money
Time after time
You done me wrong

Cause just like a train
You let all my friends come over and eat
And you were so strange
You didn't have the decency
To change the sheets

Oh girl, when you were mine
I used to let you wear all my clothes
You were so fine (So fine)
Maybe that's the reason
That it hurt me so

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
`Cuz I love u, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

When you were mine
You were kinda sorta my best friend
So I was blind (So blind)
I let you fool around
I never cared (Didn't care)
I never was the kind to make a fuss
When he was there
Sleeping in between the two of us

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
Cuz I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine

When you were mine
U were all I ever wanted to do
Now I spend my time
Following him whenever he's with you

I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (Don't care)
Cuz I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more that I did
When you were mine

When you were mine, yeah, oh no
Love you, baby
Love you, baby
When you were mine

I was the one sleepin' all alone
When U were at the party
I was the one waitin' by the phone
When U were with somebody
Now here U come again with your heart in your hands
Confessin' all of your sins, yeah
The same tired line that I've heard a dozen times
But still I've got 2 give in

CHORUS:
Cuz when U love somebody
Every now and then it might rain
When U love somebody
With every sun shower there's pain
Whenever something's lost, something's gained
When U love somebody
When U love someone

U were the one lookin' 4 some action
I was just lookin' 4 U
"Who needs love when U got protection"
Quote, unquote your point of view
All my partners say that I need 2 dismiss ya
Until they see U smile (Such a pretty smile)
All them fools are buggin' cuz they just want your lovin'
In the backseat, huh, 4 a little while (But I don't care)

CHORUS
(When U love somebody)
(Might rain)

Yeah, yea

Check me out on the floor
So what, U got me open
Yeah, do your dance
But I'm the one U're dancin' 4

And U know this
Round and round, don't stop it
And U know this, yeah, yeah
Up and down, U got it

Cuz when U love somebody (When U love somebody)
Every now and then it might rain (Now and then it might rain)
When U love somebody
With every sun shower there's pain
(Baby, a little pain, a little pain, yeah)
Whenever something's lost, something's gained
(Every now and then U got 2 think about what U gain) (Think U
don't?)

When U love somebody (Yeah) (When U love somebody)
Every now and then it might rain (Might rain)
When U love somebody (Pourin' down, down on me)
With every sun shower there's pain (Come on, wet me rain)
Whenever something's lost, something's gained (Something's
gained)
When U love somebody, yeah

When U love somebody {x7}
(So sweet)
(It's complete)
Well (So nice)
(It's paradise)

Round and round, don't stop it

Round and round, don't stop the pounds
Cuz a brutha gettin' down here lately
Freedom agrees with us all, U see
In a state of mind that's weightless
See, on the quantum tip I flipped on the notion
When the Adam split, we got Eve
Duality's now a groupie with a backstage pass
And they ain't gonna leave till they get some
From grace we fall
Referring 2 the objects on the wall
I'd picture my hat, my coat, my balls
Around and round (Round and round) {x2}
Huh, don't stop the pounds (Don't stop the pounds)
Yeah, cuz a brutha gettin' down here lately

Mm

When we're dancing close and slow
I never want to let you go, no, no
I feel your warm embrace
The softness of your face
Tell me, baby, are we here alone?
When we're kissing long and hard
I can almost taste the thoughts within your mind
Sexrelated fantasy is all that my mind can see
Baby, that's honestly the way I feel
When we're dancing close and slow
I'm not afraid to let my feelings show
I want to come inside of you
I want to hold you when we're through
Can't you feel my love touching you

When you were mine, I gave you all of my money. Time after time, you done me wrong.
It's just like a train, you let all of your friends just board on me, but you were insane, you didn't have the decentsy to change your sheets.


Oh girl when you were mine, you were kinda sorta my best friend, so I was blind, I let you fool around around. I never cared I never was the kind to make a fuss, when he was there sleeping in between the 2 of us. I know that you're going with another guy, I don't care cause I loved you baby that's no lie. Loved you more than I did when you were mine. When you were mine you were all I ever wanted to do, now I spend my time following him whenever he's with you, I know that you're going with another guy. I don't care cause I loved you baby that's no lie, loved you more than I did when you were mine.

So fierce U look 2night
The brightest star pales 2 your sex
Before we do anything, let me just talk 2 U

When 2 are in love
They'll whisper secrets only they 2 can hear
When 2 are in love

When 2 are in love (Love)
Their stomachs will pound every time the other comes near
When 2 are in love

When 2 are in love (Love)
Falling leaves will appear 2 them like slow motion rain
Slow motion, slow motion

When 2 are in love
The speed of their hips can be faster than a runaway train
(Drip-drop, drip-drop - water, water, water)

Come bathe with me ?let's drown each other in each other's emotions
Bathe with me ?let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me ?ooh, let me touch your body till your river's an ocean
Bathe with me ?let's kiss with one synonymous notion
Nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo (Nothing's taboo)
When the 2 are in love (L.O.V.E. - L.O.V.)
Can U hear me?

When 2 are in love (When 2 are in love)
Their bodies shiver at the mere contemplation of penetration
(Let alone the act) Let alone the actual act (Act)

When 2 are in love
The thought of his tongue in the V of her love
In his mind (this thought) - it leads the pack (Pack)

Come bathe with me ?let's drown each other in each other's emotions
Bathe with me ?let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me ?ooh, let me touch your body till your river's an ocean
Bathe with me ?let's kiss with one synonymous notion
That nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo (Nothing's taboo)
When the 2 are in love (Love)
In love
Can U hear me?

Hold me
Yeah, just like that
Don't move

Sweet dreams

So fair she looked tonight
The brightest star appeals to your sex
Before we do anything
Let me just talk to you

When 2 R in love
They whisper secrets
Only they 2 can hear
When 2 R in love

When 2 R in love
Their stomachs will pound
Every time the other comes near
When 2 R in love

When 2 R in love
Falling leaves will appear to them
Like slow motion rain
Slow motion, slow motion

The speed of their hips
Can be faster than a runaway train
Drop, drop, drop, drop, water, water, water

Come bathe with me
Let's drown each other in each others emotions
Bathe with me
Let's cover each other with perfume and lotion

Bathe with me
Ooh, and let me touch your body 'til your river's an ocean

Don't move

I see U picked me out from the crowd
Could it be the way I play guitar?
Master of the soft, not 2 loud
One day, maybe I will be a star
I see U picked me out like U want something
But shame on U, baby, can't U see this ring?

[CHORUS]
What do U want me 2 do, girl?
What do U want me 2 do, babe?
What do U want me 2 do, girl?
What do U want me 2 do, babe?

I got a woman, U got a man
So we got 2 do what's right
I said U'd get beheaded in other lands
If I were in your arms 2night
Quit tryin' 2 get me under that icy plunder
Boy, oh boy, what a scare, ooh

[CHORUS]

U picked me out of the crowd
And ooh, just so bold and so proud
And dressed like U want everybody 2 just say, "Wow!
Didn't her mama teach her better?"
Ow, dressed like that, somebody gon' get her

I see U picked me from the crowd
Could it be the way I play guitar?
Master of the soft, not 2 loud
I don't ever really wanna be where U are, where U are, no

What do U want me 2 do, girl?
Tell me, what do U want me 2 do, babe?
What do U want me 2 do, girl?
Tell me, tell me, what do U want me 2 do, babe?
I ain't tryin' 2 do that
What do U want me 2 do, girl?

Brother dear brother,I came as quickly as I could
The Digital Haze is broken,The Banished Ones r gone 4 good, gone 4 good

Now there must b a wedding/Now there must b a feast
A feast, a feast/A smorgasbord at least
A brunch, a munch/Of cake if just a piece

Not just a vat of chitlins/Or turkey meat u c
We r what we eat/So we must eat a leaf
We'll dine under a tree/Unless it snows!

Uno para todos, y todos para uno

We March (Whoa)
March (Whoa)

If this is the same avenue my ancestors fought 2 liberate

If all the water's dirty and I wanna labor by my dammy
The river that I drink from will it be the same as your mammy?
Now's the time 2 find the rhyme

From angry thoughts, the racist kind

If u can't find a better reason 2 call this woman otherwise
Don't cry, u made the bed in which u lie
Now's the time 2 find a rhyme
It's got a reason and frees the mind
From angry thoughts, the racist kind

If another leader falls

We March
[...foot stompin']
March
We March
He said it
She said it
And I say

Jump 'em and funk 'em, pump 'em and funk 'em
We can funk

I could tell u stories 'til u get tired.
I could play with your mind.
But u'd probably say that I was a liar
so I won't waste your time

I'm scared 'cause though we just met
there's this energy between us,
let's just go somewhere, we can funk

I'm testing postive 4 the funk
I'll gladly (we can funk) pee in anybody's cup
and when your cup overflow
I'm testing (we can funk) positive and I'll pee some more

Bump 'em and funk 'em, jump 'em and funk 'em,
pump 'em and funk 'em, pump 'em and funk 'em

Every time I could, I would compilment u on the things,

But I'm scared, 'cause if I don't kiss ya,

Which ever one u choose is alright,
'cause we're going 2 do it all night long
(Sex) Sex between 2 people is alright
if all the love in the world is what they got
as long as they're not trying 2 hurt nobody
just as long as it's hot
good lord, baby, I wanna make love 2 u 2 times maybe 3
Yeah, if u want 2 go 4 or 5, baby that's alright with me
Listen, I said I will be your little baby
Yeah, I can be your big strong man
I can be your girl or boy, I can be your toy
Alright, let's dance.
It's up 2 u can funk me baby.
I'll funk u. We can funk one another.
Whatever u want 2 do.

[verse echoed slightly off time]
U got electric ass baby
U got electric thighs baby
I can't wait no longer child
It's getting stronger, baby

Then blow the candle out, let's see if it's true

We be funkin' over here, and over there ain't shit
We be funkin' over here, and over there ain't shit

CHORUS:
I am Violet the Organ Grinder
And I grind all the live long day
I live 4 the organ that I am grinding
I'll die, but I won't go away
Gett Off {repeated throughout song}

CHORUS

Ooh, wait a minute, I think U better trip on this {x2}

I was on my way 2 another room
When an image of U sweetly
Appeared in the mirror, perhaps U recall
U and I were neatly
In the middle of a Crystal Ball
And it now serves as a reminder on the wall
Of U and I, the organ grinder
In the greatest concert of them all

(CHORUS)
I am Violet the Organ Grinder
And I grind all the live long day
I live 4 the organ, I am grinding
I'll die, but I will not go away

Did U know that I still have your stockings?
I keep 'em in a drawer next 2 your brassiere
Come hither, my sweet, lend me your attention,
Come hither, lend my your ear
I do believe my piano was stolen
I do believe that U want me near
Well I can deal with a sucker if he's in your mouth
But I can't deal with insincere
I am the one that lives in your heart
U love me, no matter what U say
Swear U don't miss the organ grinder
Grinding on U every day


I am Violet the Organ Grinder
And I grind all the live long day (Check this out)
Ooh, wait a minute, I think U better trip on this

I took all the pictures U gave me
And I placed them right under my bed
And I pumped and I pumped
'Til the 'gasmer just jumped
From my feet 2 the top of my head, oh boy!

(CHORUS)
I'm Violet the Organ Grinder
And I grind all the live long day
I live 4 the organ, that I'm grinding
I'll die, but I will not go away

Ooh, wait a minute, I think U better trip on this

Like a puppy, I licked your devotion
From your neck, from your eyes, from your ears
When U cried, I became your emotion
And if U ever cry like that again I'll be here

(CHORUS)
'cause I'm Violet the Organ Grinder
And I grind all the live long day
I live 4 the organ, that I'm grinding
I'll die, but I won't go away
Not even...

(Gangsta) {x3}
(Who turned the mother out) {x2}
{repeat phrase}

CHORUS

She saw me walking down the streets
Of your fine city
It kinda turned me on when she looked at me
And said, "C'mere"

Now I don't usually talk to strangers
But she looked so pretty
What can I lose
If I, just give a little ear?

"What's up little girl?
I ain't got time to play"
Baby didn't say too much
She said, "Are you gay?"

Kinda took me by suprise
I didn't know what to do
I just looked her in her eyes
And I said, "No, are u?"

Said to myself, said
"She's just a crazy, crazy, crazy
Little mixed up dame
She's just a victim of society
And all it's games"
Now where I come from
We don't let society
Tell us how it's supposed to be
Our clothes, our hair, we don't care
It's all about being there

Everybody's going
Uptown
That's where I wanna be
Uptown
Set your mind free
Uptown
Got my body hot
Get down
I don't wanna stop, no

As soon as we got there
Good times were rolling
White, Black, Puerto Rican
Everybody just a-freakin'
Good times were rolling

She started dancing in the streets
Girl, she's just gone mad
U know, she even made love to me
Best bed I ever had

I don't usually talk to strangers
This time it's all right
See, she got me hot
I couldn't stop
Good times were rolling all night
All night, yeah

Now where I come from
We don't give a damn
We do whatever we please
It ain't about no downtown
Nowhere bound
Narrow-minded drag

It's all about being free

Everybody's going
Uptown
It's where I wanna be
Uptown
U can set your mind free, yeah
Uptown
Keep your body hot
Get down
I don't wanna stop, no

Uptown Uptown

Everybody's going, everybody's going
Everybody gotta gotta
Uptown

Gotta go, Gotta go-go-go
Gotta go
Uptown

Uptown
All now
Uptown

Gotta go-go-go
Baby, gotta go, gotta
Uptown

C'mon, c'mon
U, u have to, you gotta go
Uptown

YEAH!

All of my life I've never wanted anyone like I wanted U
Every night I said a prayer 2 God and His angels
I'm sure they knew
The many tears that I'd have 2 cry
If I ever had 2 leave your side

*Until U're in my arms again
I know this pain will never end
This broken heart will never mend
Until U're in my arms again

Every mornin' when I awaken, I imagine U sleepin' in your bed
Wrong or right the reason U're taken from my embrace
Well, it's never said
Cuz every day that U don't return
Is another day that my heart just yearns and yearns
That's why∼

If life remains a mystery
Then there's no reason 2 the rhyme
And U, U'll never know what U mean 2 me till U're mine, all mine

*Until U're in my arms again

Until U're, until U're, until U're in my arms again!
No, ain't never gonna end
Never gonna mend
Until U're back, right back in my arms again

I'll never see like others see
(I know that U'll come back 2 me)
I know U're gonna come right back 2 me (Come on back 2 me)
And this time U will never leave my arms again
(Never leave my arms again)

*Until U're in my arms again
Come on back, baby
Come on back

*Until U're in my arms again

School’s now in session
Put down the Smith & Wessons
Real renegades don’t invite grenades 2 make the grade
This is a brain raid - who rise above the lies
Raise above these days
New ways disguised as a craze
Uh, gotcha back against the status they thrown at us
Back against the wall again
High trees catch a lot of wind, oh
Last band standing
Gotta knock my overstanding
According 2 planing (NPG get rowdy)
And look up in the sky
No cable wire
God bless the child
God bless the child

(So funky)
Ha-ha-ha-ha ...

How can I stand 2 stay where I am?
Poor butterfly who don't understand
Why can't I fly away in a special sky?
If I don't find my destiny soon,
I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon

I want to live life to the ultimate high
Maybe I'll die young like heroes die
Maybe I'll kiss u some wild special way
If nobody kills me or thrills me soon,
I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon

If that's alright

Lovers like us dear are born 2 die
If they don't find us what will we do?
I guess we'll make love under the cherry moon
I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon

Every time I watch the other people news
I c a false picture of myself, another one of u
They try 2 tell us what we want, what 2 believe
Didn't that happen in the Garden
When somebody spoke 2 Eve?
But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?

Look around and tell me ur Sun is Risen
When ur brothers and sisters r in the Fall
What is left 2 give when r work is done?
What do we own besides the right 2 crawl?

C we're living in a system that the devil designed
And suffering from this devil's most heinous crime
He's tried 2 keep us from the reason we were born
That is 2 b the living truth in human 4m

But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?

This work is not an easy task
But this is the work we must do 4 Revelation 2 come 2 pass
This work is the kind that turns ur back on the Ruling Class
By putting them in their place just like the past

Taste it, ain't it sweet sweet?
Gotta lotta work 2 do
Taste it, ain't it sweet sweet?
Gotta lotta work 2 do

Nothing can stop us
Whatever's in r way
We got 2 go thru it 2 get 2 it
I heard somebody say,

"I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?"
Thank u

(Let's go)

What is this new exaltation
That I just can't explain?
What r these new inspirations
That I can't get outta my brain?
How am I gonna sleep with this feeling
Rushing all through my veins?
Get up, come on let's do something
Don't U wanna go get saved?

The night is calling U 2 act
Act upon every urge
U can't get no satisfaction
If U ain't got the courage
I don't know what U're afraid of
I don't know what U've heard
Get up, come on let's do something
Don't U wanna know the word?

CHORUS:
Who's gonna save us when them spiders get next 2 U?
Spinning their sticky webs around what U do?
(We gotta) safeguard against forked tongue and the treachery of the wicked 1
Get up, come on let's do something

Don't matter how far U have 2
The truth has got 2 be told
Don't matter how shiny your lips
They'll never be streets of gold
They might try 2 get us crazy
Cuz they don't know what I've heard
We got this new exaltation
I'm talking about the word

CHORUS
(Next 2 U, next 2 U)
(What U do, yeah)
(Forked tongue)
(Wicked 1)

Get up, come on let's do something
No reason 2 feel this pain
Get up, come on let's do something
Come on, go, let's get saved
{repeat}

Get up, come on let's do something {x4}
Don't U wanna hear the word?

It's late and I'm runnin out of clever things 2 say
The kind that would bring a girl like U 2 tears
There's only 1 more glass of this rose'
Let's throw it on the fire with our past
And dance the night away

Until the sun, the moon and stars
Don't seem as far as they did yesterday
The sun, the moon and stars
In love we are - 4ever, always

It's late and I think it's 'bout time for U and me 2 get closer
2 get closer than we ever did before - ohh
Whenever there's a tide U can let it ride inside your interior
Lay back, relax upon my shore, oh-oh
Ohh baby, I wanna make love 2 U right here
One inside the other one - no fear, we're here

Until the sun, the moon and stars
Don't seem as far as they did yesterday
The sun, the moon and stars
In love we are - 4ever, always

Blow out this candle sunlight
Come lay down next 2 me
And paint another rainbow, oh~we
Ohhh eclipse this light with ecstasy

Do u like I do.
One, one, one, one, come on, come on
It's late and I'm walkin' out of what 2 say
The kinda lucky rhyme make a chippy wanna say
Whisper in the valley 2 me rock - n - rose'
Do u like I do come on and dance the night away
It's late but b4 they get 2 close the door
U and me we got 2 get out on the floor
Come on let the tide ride in and out the shore
I wanna love U once again - then some more
Lay u're head back I got my hand behind your head
Like U do the limbo 'cept it's on the bouncy bed
Bouncin on the Summer Spring and when U start 2 Fall
U'll come like a cold Winter do in Montreal
Come on baby, under the sun and moon and stars
Let the tide ride (2x)

The sun, the moon and stars
Don't seem as far as they did yesterday
The sun, the moon and stars
In love we are - 4ever, always

2 all his good brothers the Wise One spoke highly of his Muse, because her
love 4 the one true God was growing with every passing day. So he said, "2
all a good night", sent them 2 bed early and invited his Muse 2 join him in
the Sensual Everafter.

Once was this ball with a line straight down the middle
One side was black and the other one white
And they both understood so little
That they spent their whole lives tryin' 2 tell each other what time it
was
And all along it did not matter what either said
Because, because

U only know what u know
U only see what your heart will show
U only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

There once was a golden idol that went 2 the winners
Needless 2 say, it didn't make 'em feel any less a sinner
Cuz the very next mornin' the whole damn world was the same
Yes it was
The idol's still shinin' but the voice inside it said,
"There ain't no winners in this game"

U only know what u know
U only see what your heart will show
U only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

There once was an angel
Who most certainly watched over me
But if it got me through the day
Is it crazy?
Yeah, I'll be crazy

Until the demons fall as far as anyone can fall
When they reap what they done sowed, I'll be standin' tall
We spend our whole lives tryin' 2 dog the other man
When what we need 2 do is try to give him all we can

But, uh, u only know what u know
And, uh, u only see what your heart'll show
And, uh, u only love when your soul remembers
We all come from the same December
And in the end that's where we'll go
So let's go

Let's go

What is sacrifice?
(We s... we s... we s... we sacrifice)

NPG in mass attack, Sonny, please.

Church if u will, please turn 2 the book of Victor (We s, We s)
We like 2 start at the top if u don't mind

(Don't say it, preacher)

I was born on a blood stained table
Cord wrapped around my neck
Epilectic 'til the age of 7
I was sure heaven marked the deck

(we sacrifice)
I know joy lives 'round the corner

1967 in a bus marked public schools
Rode me and a group of unsuspecting political tools
Our parents wondered what it was like 2 have another color near
So they put their babies together 2 eliminate the fear
We sacrifice yes we did
Fighting one another, (we sacrifice) (don't say it preacher)
All because of color
The angel of hate - she taught me how 2 kick her
If she called me anything but Victor (u mean like nigger?)
If the only thing that tells me is father time
Then sacrifice is the mutha sublime - we love it

Listen mutha - we sacrifice

(don't... don't... don't say it preacher)

(we sacrifice)

(Well, well, well, well)

(What is sacrifice?)

Hold yo' text, deacon

Never understood my old friends laughing
They got high when everything else got wrong (pass the booze up here)
Dr. King was killed and the streets
They started burnin'
When the smoke was cleared, their high was gone
Education got important, so important 2 Victor
A little more important than ripple and weed
Bernadette's a lady, and she told me (what she say?)
"Whatever u do son, a little discipline is what u need,
is what u need, u need to sacrifice"

So what is the answer 2 the question of u
what do I look 4, what shall I do?
Which way do I turn when I'm feeling lost?

He realized that she was new 2 love
Naive in every way
Every schoolboy's fanstasy she was
That's why he had 2 wait
If he poured his heart into a glass
And offered it like wine
She could drink and be back in time for the morning papers
They could take a walk down the oceanside
Make a wish on every wave
They could find a carousel
And ride or kiss in every cave
They could contemplate the entire universe
Or just one star
Or just how far was the walk 4 the morning papers

Let me play it for u one time, oh oh
Well
Hey
Shucks

Why is age more than a number when it comes 2 love?
Should we ask the ones who speculate
When they don't know what it's made of?
Should we ask the moonlight on your face
Or the raindrops in your hair
Or should we ask the man who wrote it there in the morning papers?

Should we ask the moonlight on your face
Or the raindrops in your hair
Should we ask the man who wrote it there in the morning papers?

Somebody help me sing it now

La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la

Oh yes

La-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la

Where are u?
U can relax now, the Max is in control
Go... yeah yeah

When my back is so far back it's on the other side of the wall
When half a chance is all I get if I get a chance at all
When the going gets tougher than the tough can go
I grind the axe - that's when I go, I go, I go 2 the max. I go

The max - Yo baby, tell me where the party's at
The max - Yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack (I go)
The max - We can dance if u want 2, but I might break yo back
The max - More funk for your buck u can bet on that

When they tell me 2 walk a straight line
I put on crooked shoes
When they tell me that I can't live forever
I pay some overdues (Kick it)
When they start makin' up a crazy rule
That's when I break a back
Cuz when I go, I go, I go 2 the max. I go

The max - Yo baby (oh yeah), tell me where the party's at
The max - Yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack (oh, yeah yeah)
The max - We can dance if u want 2 (ooh yeah), but I might break yo back
(2 the max)
The max - More funk for your buck u can bet on that

Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Oh, yeah yeah!

(Dig it) When my body starts to shiver from the chill of
The scarlett sweat
When my lips eclipse the sun and the moon
Reflecting from the wet
When the blood of my love outraces
Every one of the stallions in your pack - that's when
U go, u go, u go 2 the max. U go

The max (2 the max)
The max (oooh, get funky)
The max (get-get-get funky) (2 the max)
The max (get funky)

Let' go

Let's go (dance)
I wanna dance
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go (Oh yeah yeah!)

I go 2 the max
I'm not afraid (oh my god)
I wanna dance

Then listen -
When the going gets tougher than the tough can go
I grind the axe - that's when I go, I go, I go 2 the max. I go

The max - Yo baby, tell me where the party's at
The max - Yo baby, I wanna shuffle the cards in that stack
The max - We can dance if u want 2, but I might break yo back
The max - More funk for your buck u can bet on that

This is the max

Dear love, dear love, dear love
Forgive me 4 my sins
But u left me in such a cold cold world to suffer in (kick it)
And Contrary 2 popular belief
Even though one's life is brief
If u go there once u
Come again and again and
Let's go

[I'm so sorry for u...]

This is the max

If U leave her now
Ur never gonna 2 c her again - Never
Now she's gonna need a shoulder 2 cry on
She's gonna need a friend
She's gonna need a pillow case -
something 2 put those tears on
And I've got some purple satin lacys
1 second later than the second U gone
She's gonna miss U at first
But then she's gonna buy me things
That's when I'm gonna lay her
'cross my piano stool and sing 2 her
Honey, I tried 2 tell him
That U were the marrying kind
A faithful 1-man-woman
The best he would ever find
I guess he wasn't trying 2 hear that
So there ain't nothing left 2 say
I tried 2 tell him if U run 2 me
I won't run away

If U leave her now
U'll never get another glimpse
I'm going 2 lace her with enough ice to recap the polls
There might b another solar eclipse
She's gonna find ..
... bath water hot enough 2 b touched
(oh, man. porkchop is hurtin')
I'm gonna put her on the same diet Missy went on
U know she eat 2 much
Tonight, she's gonna miss U at first
But then she'll get used 2 me
All of the tricks I would try
2 make her take this ring and make love 2 me
Honey, I tried 2 tell him
That U were the marrying kind
A faithful 1-man-woman
The best he would ever find
I guess he wasn't trying 2 hear that
So there ain't nothing left 2 say
I tried 2 tell him if U run 2 me
I won't run away
Run away
Don't run away

Desperate is the day that is 2morrow
4 those who do not know the time has come
2 whip the dogs that beg, steal or borrow
From the table God set 4 His Son
Wicked is the witch that stands 4 nothing
All the while watching 2 see U fall
Deeper than the ditch that bred your suffering
The one being dug right now by them all

Happy is the way 2 meet your burdens
No matter how heavy or dark the day
Pity on those with no hope 4 2morrow
It's never as bad as it seems until we say

Precious is the baby with a mother
That tells him that his Saviour is coming soon
All that believe will cleanse and purify themselves
Put down the needle, put down the spoon {x2}

Sacred is the prayer that asks 4 nothing, oh
While seeking 2 give thanks 4 every breath we take, oh
Blessed are we inside this prayer
4 in the new world, we will be there

The only love there is, is the love we make {x2}
(The only love there is, is the love we make)
Only love there is, only love there is
The only love there is, is the love we make (Yeah)
The only love there is, is the love we make

Once upon a time in the land of Sinaplenty
There lived a king who didn't deserve 2 be
He knew not where he came from
Nor where he was going
He never once said thank U, never please

Now this king he had a subject named Electra
Who loved him with a passion, uncontested
4 him each day she had a smile
But it didn't matter
The king was looking 4 the ladder

Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great
4 those who want 2 go

A feeling of self-worth (everybody's looking)
will caress U (for the answers)
The size of the whole wide world will decrease (how the story started)
(and how it will end)
The love of God's creation will undress U
And time spent alone my friend, will cease

Everybody's looking 4 the answers
How the story started and how it will end
What's the use in half a story, half a dream
U have 2 climb all of the steps in between (yeah, we ride)

Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road (the steps you take are no easy road)
(it's not that easy)
But the reward is great
4 those who want 2 go (I do)

everybody... everybody's looking (Everybody's looking 4 the answers)

What's the use in half a story, (What's the use in half a story)

Let's go down 2 the holy river
If we drown then we'll be delivered
U can still see the picture upon the wall
One eye staring at nothing at all
The other one trying 2 focus through all your tears
U can try and try but there's nothin' 2 hide
U can't run from yourself and what's inside
U got 2 find the answers 2 the questions that U most fear

So over and over U ask your soul
Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?
And the voice inside says 2night the truth will be told

U surrounded yourself with all the wrong faces
Spending your time in all the wrong places
Puttin' your faith in things that only make U cry
People say they love U when they wanna help
But how can they when U can't help yourself?
The more they say they love U, the more U just wanna die
So here we go again, the self analysis
Have another glass of Port and uh.. forget this
The band's playin' at the club 2night and they're bound 2 groove

There U are, U think U're high
U can't ask yourself cuz U'd only lie
If U had a dollar 4 every time U tried

U can't call nobody cuz they'll tell U straight up
Come and make love when U really hate 'em
Relationships based on the physical are over and done
They're over and done (They're over and done)
U'd rather have fun
With only one, with only one
Only one... one (one)

And then it hit 'cha like a fist on a wall
Who gave U life when there was none at all?
Who gave the sun permission 2 rise up everyday? (Ooh, oh yes)
Let me tell it (Go'n)
If U ask God 2 love U longer
Every breath U take will make U stronger
Keepin' U happy (happy) and proud 2 call His name (Go'n and say it)
Jesus (Jesus)

And over and over U ask your soul
Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?
And the voice inside said 2night the truth will be told
And this time I was listening, hear me

Let's go down 2 the holy river
If we drown then we'll be delivered (Yes we will)
If we don't then we'll never see the light (No)
If U die before U try
U'll have 2 come back and face the light (Oh yes)
When U believe it, U got a good reason 2 cry (Oh my, my)

So I went on down 2 the holy river
I called my girl and told her I had something 2 give her
I asked her 2 marry me and she said yes, I cried
Oh, that night I drowned in her tears and mine
And.. and instead of a glass of sorrow and wine
Looking back y'all, I don't miss nothing except the time
And when I see that picture upon the wall
The one eye staring at nothing at all
My eyes trying 2 focus but these are much different tears
Oh, yes they are
Let's go down 2 the holy river {x3}

Let's go down 2 the holy river {x3}

I knew this dude/He was very cool
He used 2 rule/Until he went 2 school

Not a normal school/That breeds a fool
But the ones that teaches/Men aren't fit to rule

That's when he took his pearly crown/He raised it up and spun it 'round
And tossed in2 the deep blue underground

No longer lead by the ways of men/He looked 4 the kingdom deep within
That's when the drums in his head began 2 pound

Don't let nobody bring u down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now/Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring u down/The Everlasting Now

Now turn the page, at an early age
This brutha on stage, he was all the rage
He taught an integrated world 2 sing
The color u are don't mean a thing
Everybody's a star all the everyday people sang

He changed the funk, put it in a bag
Then he changed the colors of the flag
But u can't teach a dog new tricks if his tail don't wag
Don't know matter how much money u made
All the cars u got and all the women u laid
Mess with the flag and 2 them u're still a spade

Don't let nobody bring u down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the Everlasting Now
Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring u down

See this girl in her make-believe world/Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl/There r the dreams that do unfurl
Never everlasting

Don't let anybody bring u down/The Everlasting Now

Watch that girl in her make-believe world
Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl
Electric beaches skin do bake
Vanilla fudge and wedding cake
If u should die b4 u wake
U got any last requests 2 make?

Do U want me?
Baby, baby, baby - listen 2 me!
I may not know where I'm going, baby!
Looka here - I said I may not know what I need!

I'll beg U down on my knees!

Yeah, I want U!
Baby, baby, baby, baby - I want U!
Yes I do

Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade
She worked the night shift
Dishwater blonde, tall and fine
She got a lot of tips
Well, earlier I'd been talkin' stuff
In a violent room
Fighting with lovers past
I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
Dorothy was fast
Well, I ordered - "Yeah, let me get a fruit cocktail, I ain't 2 hungry"
Dorothy laughed
She said "Sounds like a real man 2 me"
Kinda cute, U wanna take a bath?
(do you wanna, do you wanna, bath)
I said "Cool, but I'm leaving my pants on" (she say)
"Cuz I'm kind of going with someone"
She said "Sounds like a real man 2 me"
"Mind if I turn on the radio?"
"Oh, my favorite song" she said
And it was Joni singing "Help me I think I'm falling"
(Ring)
The phone rang and she said
"Whoever's calling can't be as cute as U"
Right then I knew I was through
(Dorothy Parker was cool)
My pants where wet, they came off
But she didn't see the movie
Cuz she hadn't read the book first
Instead she pretended she was blind
An affliction brought on by a witch's curse
Dorothy made me laugh (ha ha)
I felt much better so I went back
2 the violent room (tell us what U did)
Let me tell U what I did...

I took another bubble bath with my pants on
All the fighting stopped
Next time I'll do it sooner
This is the ballad of Dorothy Parker

Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Well
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Well

Black day, stormy night
No love, no hope in sight
Don't cry, he is coming
Don't die without knowing the cross
Ghettos 2 the left of us
Flowers 2 the right
There'll be bread 4 all of us
If we can just bear the cross

Sweet song of salvation
A pregnant mother sings
She lives in starvation
Her children need all that she brings

We all have our problems
Some BIG, some are small
Soon all of our problems
Will be taken by the cross

Black day, stormy night
No love, no hope in sight

If we can just, just bear the cross, yeah

Sex
Temptation
Lust
Pop go mama

Everybody on this earth has got a vice
And mine, little darlin', mine is the opposite of ice
Mine is the running hot water of the daughter of morality
In other words, this little prince thinks a lot about U, see?
Baby, baby, baby
I'm guilty in the first degree

Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

Everybody in this room
Everybody in this room has got an urge
What's yours, baby?
Mine is temptation, it reigns at a party where lovers splurge
Pop go mama when daddy gets a little 2 much
You know what I'm talkin' 'bout?
Purplelectricity whenever our bodies touch
Ooh baby, I love it when our bodies touch

Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

Temptation, temptation, temptation

Wait a minute now

Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must

Temptation
Working my body, working my body, working my body

Temptation
I'm not talkin' about just ordinary temptation, people. I'm talking
about the kind of temptation that'll make U do things.
Oh, oh, temptation.
Oh, darling, I can almost taste the wetness between your...
temptation, temptation
I'm not talking about any ol' kind of temptation, people, I'm talkin'
about, I'm talkin' about... sexual temptation.
A lover
I need a lover, a lover, I need a...right now.
U, I want U.
I want U in the worst way.
I want U.

"Oh, silly man, that's not how it works.
You have 2 want her 4 the right reasons."

I do!

"U don't, now die!"

No! No!

Let me go, let me go.

I'm sorry.
I'll be good.
This time I promise,
Love is more important than sex.
Now I understand.
I have 2 go now.
I don't know when I'll return.
Good-bye

At 42 thousand feet above the sea
That's where U and
I first came to B
From the dust of the Earth
And the Knowledge tree
Te Amo Corazon

At last I can tell you what I've
known so long
My hearts been cryin out to
sing this song
I don't care who knows it
cause there's nothing wrong
Te Amo Corazon

So scared of losing you
Really don't know what I'd do
Can't bare the thought of another
day apart
my heart my heart Corazon

At once when i
first laid eyes on you
I saw Heaven and
Earth anew
Every 1 else saw my brown eyes
no longer blue
Te Amo Corazon

First I couldn't find the
words to say
How much you've changed me
in everyway
I just want to thank you
each and everyday
Te Amo Corazon

Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I feel blue
Some days I just wanna black out
Everything I felt for U
Even though I take your picture
Everywhere I go
I use it for a coaster and drink the overflow

Some days I make a lot of money
And give it all away
2 take my mind off the tangerine colour
Of your negligee
Beggars can’t be choosy
If they don’t know how 2 serve
U got a different phone number
...and a lot of nerve

Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I miss U, 2

Oh my God here U are
Prettiest thing in life I've ever seen
Close my eyes what's it like,
What's it like inside your tamborine?

Oh my God, there I go
Falling in love with the face in a magazine (uh oh, not again)
All alone by myself
Me and I play my tamborine

Tamborine
Tamborine
Tamborine
Tamborine
Long days, lonely nights
Tamborine
Long days, lonely nights
Tamborine

I don't care 4 1 night stands
With trolley cars
That juggle 17
I just want 2 settle down and
Play around
My baby's tamborine

Tamborine what are U
Why are U the star of
All my dreams
(Star of all my dreams, are U a good tamborine)
Are U good, are U bad
Are U just unnecessary means

Tamborine
Tamborine
Tamborine
Trolley cars

Long days, lonely nights
2 bad we're not allowed 2 scream (yeah, yeah, too bad)
Guess that I'll stay at home
All alone and play my tamborine (aww)

Tamborine
Tamborine
Tamborine
Tamborine
The tamborine

U got it! - Style, say what?
U got it! - Style, come on

Style ain't sittin' court side with the owner of the team

Style is not biting style when U can't find the funk
Style is the face U make on a Michael Jordon dunk
Style ain't the jeep U bought when U know your broke ass got bills
Style is lettin' your lover drive while U talk on the phone and chill

U got it! - Style
U got it! - Style, maybe
U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style

Bridge:
Style is a gold-tooth smile with an attitude
Style is a peaceful wild postin' the rude
Style is growing your own food
Style is a non-violent march
Style is an accurate account of what's inside every heart (Style)

Style is not a lie
Style is a man that cries
Style is the glow in a pregnant woman's eyes

U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style, do that, do that
U got it! - Style, got it?
U got it! - Style, mad, come on

Close the shop, let's take a drive
Take a break from 9 to 5
It's so great to be alive, oh yeah
We could rent some roller skates
We could skate around the lake
If we don't know how, we'll fake it, oh yeah

Strollin', strollin' we could have fun just strollin'
Rockin', rollin', oh yeah

Let's forget about the time (time)
Let's relax and ease our mind (mind)
We deserve to just feel fine, oh yeah
We could stroll the mezzanine (stroll)
Buy some dirty magazine
Laugh behind it while we're eatin' ice cream (ha ha ha ha)

Strollin', strollin' we could have fun just strollin'
Rockin', rollin' oh yeah

See the man with the blue guitar
Maybe one day he'll be a star
Give him your ice cream and
I'll give him the keys to my car
There's so much hate goin' round
Hard to not let it get you down
Least we can do is make a joyful sound, oh yeah

Strollin', strollin', we could have fun just strollin'
Rockin', rollin', oh yeah

Strollin', strollin'
Rockin', rollin' (we could have fun, we could have fun)
